This morning, we brought you Steph Curry’s turnaround thunderbolt against the Phoenix Suns. It was a great shot, but according to this reader who emailed me 20 minutes after our article was published, it was actually extremely problematic and we should stop covering him. Also, I am like 90 percent s...
Steph Curry Running Away Before His Threes Go In Is Rude, Wonderful, And Demoralizing
Last night’s Warriors-Suns game was silly with highlights, even by Golden State’s inflated standards; Brandon Knight hit five audacious three pointers in the third quarter to give the Suns a double digit lead; Mo Speights went all Dirk and kept his squad in the game during that run; Leandro Barbosa ...
Draymond Green Interview Derailed By Reporter In Michigan Shirt
Warriors forward Draymond Green spent four years at Michigan State, and ended his career there as only the third player in Spartans history to record 1,000 points and 1,000 rebounds. He’s very loyal to his alma mater, as demonstrated by the reaction he had to a reporter wearing a Michigan shirt:...
Warriors Games Should Be On Earlier, Dammit
As you’re probably aware, the Golden State Warriors are currently 57-6 and have a legit shot at beating the NBA’s single-season win record. They’re the sort of once-in-a-lifetime superteam that has captured the imaginations of diehards and casual fans alike, and I would very much like to watch them ...
Did The Warriors Break LeBron James?
The Cleveland Cavaliers aren’t winning the NBA title this season. You know it, I know it, and somewhere deep down, Cavs forward and baldness cure test subject LeBron James has to know it, too.

Andrew Bogut Doesn't Even Stick Around To See If Stephen Curry Makes Three-Pointers Anymore
Stephen Curry hits three-pointers with such accuracy that we’ve come to create our own, extra-deep three-point line for him.

The Caucasian's Guide To Talking About Race

Holy Shit, The Warriors Lost To The Lakers
In what is the greatest statistical upset in NBA history, the Los Angeles Lakers somehow beat the Golden State Warriors 112-95 this afternoon. Before the game, the Lakers had a .190 winning percentage and the Warriors were sitting pretty at .917. That’s the largest gap between winning percentages an...
Get A Load Of This <i>Chicago Tribune</i> Columnist's Bad Steph Curry Take
Whatever your opinion on the Golden State Warriors—whether you think they can eat shit, or believe that their haters should shut the fuck up, or [untangleable mess of puns], or you love them—it’s inarguable that they are good at basketball. That’s sort of a ridiculous premise to have to establish, b...

After the Warriors stormed back to defeat the Thunder 121-118 in overtime on Saturday night to improve to 53-5 (16-0 against the top 10 teams in the NBA), and with NBA legend Oscar Robertson’s grousing fresh in everybody’s minds, our Kevin Draper and Albert Burneko exchanged some emails about how to...
Draymond Green Proves That Steals Can Be Highlights
Draymond Green had a big game last night, helping the Steph Curry-less Warriors scratch out an overtime win against the Hawks. He swelled the box score as usual, finishing with 15 points, 13 rebounds, 9 assists and four steals. He also hit an absurd shot in the final minute of OT to help put the gam...
This Rick Reilly Thing Sucks So Much
Last we heard from Rick Reilly, he was retiring to Italy after ESPN finally got tired of him recycling his own material. So what happens when you give an old sportswriter who perfected the art of mailing it in a shot at a Sports Illustrated cover story? You get this pile of shit....

Steve Kerr Burns Warriors Haters
Surely you’ve seen Steph Curry’s celestial game-winner from last night by now. It was one of the coolest sports moments of 2016, as well as a well-timed rebuttal to the newish wave of old-ass basketball players doing the “back in my day,” routine.
