Counterpoint: Fuck This Shit
Everything Barry wrote this morning is 100-percent correct, and it’s been six years since the ugly backlash against LeBron James’s decision to leave Cleveland proved that getting mad at an athlete for making an employment decision is one of the shittiest things a sports fan can do.

Kevin Love Is A Goddamn Hero
The Warriors knew exactly which matchup they wanted, after Kyrie went Steph in Steph’s face to put the Cavaliers up three with less than a minute to play in last night’s mind-blowing Game 7.

LeBron James Is Omnipotent
Shortly after Steph Curry left the floor, grinning in embarrassment over getting ejected, LeBron James shot a pair of free throws to deafening “MVP!” chants.

Although the Golden State Warriors didn’t play a game Thursday, Steph Curry still lost. Check out the “Chef” colorway for Under Armour’s Curry Two Lows.

The Cavs Knocked The Stuffing Out Of The Warriors, And We Got Ourselves A Series
The most spectacular play LeBron James made tonight was his pogo-stick leap up to grab a stray Kyrie Irving alley-oop, but if there’s one particular play that embodied the overwhelming beatdown the Cavaliers administered upon the heads of the Warriors, it was one that didn’t even count. Towards the ...

The Hater’s Guide To The 2016 NBA Finals
A few years ago, when my children were very small, I lamented the fact that I had to cut a great deal of sports out of my life. This happens when you have a baby.

It was simple enough to write the Warriors off when they were down 3-1, on the brink of elimination (only nine teams have ever come back from such a deficit), but they are not dead yet. The Thunder effectively blitzed them into submission in both games in Oklahoma City, and while Russell Westbrook a...
Russ And KD Are Running Things Now
Yes, for sure, the Oklahoma City Thunder made tactical adjustments that helped them in Game 3. They went small early, with Andre Roberson at power forward, rather than going huge, as they had in the first two games; they used Roberson as a screener instead of parking him in the corner where the Warr...

Steph Curry Will Extinguish You Before You Even Realize It
A few times in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals, the Warriors would make spurts of six or eight points, but never achieve sufficient escape velocity to get out of OKC’s orbit.

The Thunder Aren’t Scared Of The Warriors
As Steph Curry hit a buzzer-beater to end the first half and cap off a run by Golden State’s fabled smallball lineup of death, it felt like the Warriors were bound to keep burning the Thunder and run away with Game 1, much like the Spurs did to them to open that series.
