The Warriors Played Like Dunderheads, And Why Not? It Usually Works.
Every team has bad habits and bad patterns of play into which they frequently fall due to their specific makeup. The Golden State Warriors are hardly exempt from this; what makes them nearly unique is that their bad habits are the exact same thing that makes them great. Most of the time this is fine...

I Don't Fully Believe That NBA Players Spend Their Riches At Express
You might be unfazed by a new study that told you the average player in the NBA—where the average salary last season was $4 million and the median salary was just shy of $2 million—spends $42,500 a month. (Give him another week and he’ll spend more than the median American household earns in a year:...
Fine, The Cavs And The Warriors Are Going To Play Another Game
Noted Golden State Warriors stan and fanboy blogger Kevin Draper was too busy getting drunk tonight, so we’re the ones helping you cope with the game you watched. It was neither a memorable nor horrible game, but even the NBA gets a case of the Mondays. Here are some thoughts ......
Our Parents Like Steph Curry's Shoes

Everyone Hates Steph Curry's New Shoes Except For His Brother And My Dad
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.

Steph Curry Remembered Who He Is, And That Was That
The Western Conference finals generated a lot of conversation about tactics and matchups. Lineups were scrutinized, the length and athleticism of the Thunder were deemed A Problem for the Warriors, and everyone wondered how Steph Curry was supposed to regain his balance amid all those long arms and ...
The Golden State Warriors Will Win The NBA Finals
Draymond Green is bad. Steph Curry is Chucky Atkins. No matter. Klay Thompson is a blank-eyed three-shooting robot from space and no one will ever stop the Warriors. I’ll die before they lose again. Burn in hell, Oklahoma City Thunder....
The Warriors Aren't Dead Yet
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 Are What's Wrong With The Warriors
So every frontrunner’s favorite twee basketball unicorns, the Golden State Warriors, the best regular-season NBA team of all time, got duffed by a combined 52 points in two blowout losses in Oklahoma City by the Thunder, previously every frontrunner’s favorite twee basketball unicorns. This was the ...
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

This is rare, and they let the Thunder wander back into the game, which they eventually won. Not so much tonight. The...

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...
Stephen Curry Sprains MCL, Will Miss At Least Two Weeks
