Steven Adams Will Respect Your Anime Shoes
There’s probably nobody in the NBA more fun to interview than Steven Adams, who manages to be charming even when he’s quite pissed off, or being outright evasive. He always manages to shine brightest when the conversation turns to one of his favorite topics: anime....
Rudy Gobert Suffers Yet Another Ugly Knee Injury, Will Miss Another Month
Jazz center Rudy Gobert, one of the very few players in the NBA whose defensive work rises to the level of nightly spectacle, has suffered his second knee injury of the season, and will now be out another three to four weeks. This blows:...
Report: Dion Waiters's "Dirty Play" Will Cost Rudy Gobert A Month
Rudy Gobert wasn’t real thrilled about Dion Waiters crashing into his knees Friday night, calling it a “dirty play” and implying that the move was intentional. Well, if it was intentional, it seems to have hit its mark:...
Rudy Gobert Says Dion Waiters Deliberately Targeted His Knees
Heat guard Dion Waiters made kind of a dumb and reckless play going for a loose ball Friday night against the Utah Jazz. His effort sent him crashing into the infinitely long legs of Jazz center Rudy Gobert, the right one of which bent inwards at a terrifying angle:...
Poor Rudy Gobert
In the first quarter of tonight’s game against the Jazz, Blake Griffin offered up a dunk over Rudy Gobert that cannot really be fairly described as posterizing, simply because it was intense enough that it would really be kind of cruel to capture and preserve—you’d hang the poster up and everyone wo...
Steph Curry Made Rudy Gobert Look Like A Bewildered Child
You can’t double team Steph Curry on the perimeter. If you go under the screen against him, you are allowing maybe the greatest shooter of all time an open look.

I Don't Think Russell Westbrook Likes Rudy Gobert
The evidence is as follows:...
Gordon Hayward And The Utah Jazz Are For Real
The Utah Jazz have been out on the fringes of the NBA for most of the decade. They haven’t made the playoffs since the lockout-shortened season of 2011-12 and the last time Utah had an all-star was Deron Williams in 2011. However, both short droughts are probably going to end this season, as the 24-...
Rudy Gobert Gives Kristaps Porzingis Some Harsh Life Lessons

DeMar DeRozan Ends Rudy Gobert's Life With Ferocious Dunk
Man, this is disappointing. I really like Rudy Gobert, and was looking forward to watching him this year. Instead, just nine games into his season, Raptors wing DeMar DeRozan ended his career and life with this dunk. How rude. ...
How About We Just Do Two More Weeks Of Wiggins Vs. Gobert
Listen, man, we're all ready for the NBA regular season to be over and for the playoffs to just start already.
