Are You Ready To Hate Lane Kiffin Again?
There’s a good chance that you haven’t spent much time thinking about Lane Kiffin over the last three years, during which he had been serving as Alabama’s offensive coordinator. Not that the OC job at Alabama is particularly low profile, it’s just hard to get noticed when Nick Saban and scores of Al...

DeMarcus Cousins Really, Really Likes Joel Embiid
DeMarcus Cousins and Joel Embiid went at each other all night in an entertaining battle of the bigs as the Kings beat the Sixers 102-100.

I Hope The Beef Between Meyers Leonard And DeMarcus Cousins Lasts Forever
DeMarcus Cousins dropped 55 points on Tuesday, but not before dropping a platter of hot beef on Meyers Leonard’s lap.

It was a busy Tuesday for DeMarcus Cousins. Fresh off a $50,000 fine for berating a Sacramento Bee columnist (for which he offered a notably lacking apology), Cousins went out, had a monster game, got ejected, got un-ejected, scored 55 points, led the Kings to a big win over the Blazers, and then ga...
