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...
That Time Steph Curry Stepped On Randy Foye's Soul
Randy, welcome to the Steph Curry Ruined My Life support group. Why don’t you grab a coffee and a donut and have a seat next to Paul Allen....
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. This is rare, and they let the Thunder wander back into the game, which they eventually won. Not so much tonight. The...
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. When Curry hit two improbable...
Watch Steph Curry Ruin Defenders' Lives For Eight Minutes
To celebrate Steph Curry’s second MVP award, the NBA pulled together the best highlights of his career. The compilation has some nifty gems from when the Golden State Warriors were sad and middling, but my favorite has to be Curry in a painfully obvious mismatch against Tyler Hansbrough when he was ...
Step Aside Sports Baby Pretenders, Riley Curry Is Back
Riley Curry’s dad won his second consecutive MVP award this afternoon. Good for him! He won it unanimously, but that didn’t stop Riley here from warning voters that if they don’t vote for him next year, there’ll be trouble....
Tracy McGrady Says Steph Curry Only Won The MVP Unanimously Because The NBA Is Watered Down
The hot sports take may be a little endangered baby bird, but Tracy McGrady performed a remarkable act of conservation this morning on The Jump, when he said that Steph Curry’s unanimous MVP win was more due to the watered-down level of competition in today’s NBA compared to years past. Pablo Torre ...
All Hail Steph Curry
I didn’t think Steph Curry would play tonight. He probably didn’t think he’d log 37 minutes tonight. His coach didn’t plan to let Curry loose and have him take a third of the Warriors’ shots, and yet, he torched the Blazers for 40 points on 32 shots to lead the Warriors to a crazy 132-125 win in the...
The Warriors Didn't Even Need Steph Curry To Handle The Rockets
While the early playoff games were on this evening, a mystery was unfolding at the Warriors’ arena. Steph Curry had been listed as questionable for tonight’s Game 2 against the Rockets since he turned his ankle on Saturday, and there seemed to be genuine uncertainty about whether or not he’d play up...
Here, Have Five Solid Minutes Of Warriors Highlights
I’m going to be honest, before I clicked play on this video I thought to myself, “Man, I’ve spent the whole dang season watching Warriors highlights. I’m going to get bored with this in under 30 seconds.” Then I ended up watching the whole thing from start to finish....
Well Shit, That Was A Fun Night Of Basketball
There are, obviously, rules that explicitly govern sporting events. But there are also implicit rules, too, ones that say things like You always play to win and No player is bigger than the game. Last night, Steph Curry and Kobe Bryant took turns shooting holes in those implicit rules, and it made f...
Charles Barkley: "I'm Supposed To Stand Up For The People Who Can't Stand Up For Themselves"
North Carolina passed a pretty hateful anti-LGBT law a few weeks ago that repealed a wave of tolerance-based legislation across the state, much of which began in Charlotte. The 2017 NBA All-Star Game is scheduled to take place in Charlotte, but the league has warned that the new law runs counter to ...
Steph Curry Is Some Kind Of Jedi Or Wizard Or Some Shit
At this point, there’s really nothing Steph Curry can do on the court that would genuinely shock anyone. Perhaps aware of this fact, Curry turned last night’s postgame interview into a highlight of its own....
Please Be Careful When Reaching For A Steph Curry Autograph
Or else you might end up at the bottom of a big pile of rabid Jazz fans....
When Running Away Before Steph Curry Shoots A Three Goes Wrong
The Warriors won last night, as they always do, bringing their record to 65-7 on the season. They need to go 8-2 to get to 73 wins, which is bonkers. We spend a lot of time lauding them, specifically for their incredibly fun habit of running away before Steph Curry’s shots go in, but last night, Kla...
Gregg Popovich's Scheming Threw The Warriors Off Their Game
The Spurs dealt the Warriors their seventh loss of the season last night down in San Antonio, and held the Dubs to just 79 points in the process. Those who switched over from college basketball hoping for a more exciting game probably would have had more fun sticking with March Madness, since the Sp...
This Steph Curry Shot Was Ridiculous, Even For Him
The Warriors went down to Dallas and won a wildly entertaining shootout against the Mavs 130-112. Steph Curry finished a rebound shy of a triple-double and yawned his way to a dominant performance. The Mavs kept it close into the fourth quarter, but he and Klay Thompson (who had 10 threes! 10!) just...
