Steph Curry Makes The Warriors Invincible
The version of the Golden State Warriors that dispatched the Spurs in five games and cruised to a blowout Game 1 win against the Pelicans is a fine NBA team. One that, if not destined to, certainly looked capable of winning the title while being led by top-five NBA player Kevin Durant. The version o...

The Warriors Revved Up And Beat The Pelicans At Their Own Game
There was a short period during the first quarter of Saturday’s Game 1 between the Pelicans and the Warriors when it looked like the Warriors were a little flustered by New Orleans’s frenetic pace.

Steph's Ankles Looked Great, And So The Universe Came For His Knee Instead

Dancing Klay Is Back, Dancing A Little Too Hard At Steph Curry's Birthday Party<em></em>
Remember when Klay Thompson put his dance moves on display in China over the summer? Well, he was at it again at Steph Curry’s birthday party last night.

Steph Curry And Kyrie Irving Put On An Incredible Show
The Warriors narrowly edged the Celtics last night in Oakland, 109-105, in a game that was within a couple possessions most of the way.

James Harden Gobbled Up Steph Curry, And It Was Wonderful

Ah Geez, Steph Curry Sprained His Ankle Again
It wasn’t so long ago that Steph Curry’s ankles were an existential threat to his career. They were constantly giving out and forcing Curry to miss significant playing time with sprains.

Does Drake Have Steph Curry And Kevin Durant's Numbers Tattooed On His Arm?
ESPN editor Jovan Buha noticed something intriguing today: Drake has the numbers 30 and 35, the numbers that Steph Curry and Kevin Durant wear, tattooed on his left arm. The initial photo, taken of Drake playing basketball in a LeBron James high school jersey of all things, was not entirely clear, t...

Steph Curry Went Absolutely Bonkers On The Clippers
By now, Steph Curry highlights are sort of redundant. His very way of playing is a highlight reel: he uses darting dribble moves to create space to launch bombs from insane distances; he plays high-stakes, gambling defense; nearly every pass he throws is a slick no-look job. That’s how you turn a re...

<i>Washington Post</i> Op-Ed: Black Athletes Hurt Their Sports By Having Liberal Ideas
In its continuing quest to greatly injure public discourse by gifting legitimacy to arguments from all sides, the Washington Post op-ed page published a hilariously dumb and wrong-headed column Friday by rural Ohio newspaper editor Gary Abernathy, mourning the loss of American professional sports’ a...

Steph Curry On That "Unity" <i>Sports Illustrated</i> Cover: "That Was Terrible"
Steph Curry didn’t mince words when asked about the cover of this week’s issue of Sports Illustrated, on which was photoshopped front-and-center and arm-in-arm with Roger Goodell and LeBron James under the (bullshit) guise of “unity.”...
