The 2008 Celtics Went On TV And Whined About Ray Allen [UPDATED]
The stars of the 2008 Boston Celtics are, somehow, still mad at former teammate Ray Allen for leaving Boston in 2012 and signing with the Miami Heat. They are not only so mad about it that they didn’t invite Allen to their 10-year anniversary party, but so mad that they went on national TV last nigh...
The Capitals Are Finally Getting What They Deserve
Well, that was an ass-kicking. Two games ago the Capitals were all but dead and buried, their obituaries prepared (and sometimes even published). A lot can change in two games. After last night’s 5-2 road beatdown of the Penguins, they are one win away from making it further in the playoffs than the...

It's Probably Time To Stop Talking About "LeBron Stoppers"
The Toronto Raptors came into these playoffs with a well-known “LeBron Stopper” on the roster in DeMarre Carroll. The Hawks got swept by the Cavs when Carroll played the role for Atlanta in 2015, and James averaged 26.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 6.7 assists on 62.2 percent shooting when the Cavs bea...
Billy Corgan Is Buying Pro Wrestling's Oldest And Deadest Brand To Use As He Pleases
Depending on the specific argument you’re making, you might say that the National Wrestling Alliance, pro wrestling’s oldest governing body, ceased being relevant as much as 35 years ago. So it was definitely surprising last week when Billy Corgan (yes, that one) bought its remnants from Bruce Tharp...
What Happens To Kyle Lowry Now?
Kyle Lowry was on the bench with a sprained ankle yesterday while his team got punted out of the playoffs by LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers for a second consecutive season.

In his “Coach’s Corner” bit after the first quarter of last night’s Game 4 between the Celtics and the Wizards, Boston coach Brad Stevens explained to TNT’s David Aldridge how his team had shrugged off an early Washington run to end the period leading 24-20. “Even when it was 8-0 them,” he said, “we...

We Found The One Thing P.K. Subban Doesn't Do Well
After a 3-1 Game 6 elimination of the Blues, the Nashville Predators are on their way to the first conference finals in franchise history. One enormous reason why has been the defense, with lights-out goaltending from Pekka Rinne and outstanding work by the blueline pairings of Mattias Ekholm/P.K. S...
The Oilers Reminded Everyone They Have A Young Superstar Not Named Connor McDavid
When you play on a line with Connor McDavid, two things are going to happen. You’re going to score a lot, and you’re not going to get proper credit. Leon Draisaitl had a “quiet” 77 points in just his second season, but it’s taken an explosion in Edmonton’s series against the Ducks—away from McDavid ...
