Despite getting a nice win over the Blazers and a superstar performance out of James Harden last night, the 29-29 Houston Rockets are still in a bad place. They failed to trade Dwight Howard, the one deadline deal they did pull off fell apart because of a failed physical, and now it’s been reported ...

The Warriors Are The Best Team Ever, And They Can Eat Shit
Earlier today in Deadspin’s staff chat room, our editor Tim Marchman and I floated the idea of a “Fuck The Warriors” post, which would fully acknowledge everything great and fun and astonishing about these Golden State Warriors but also air out the completely irrational hatred he and I both feel tow...

Steph Curry Bails Draymond Green, And The Warriors, Out
The 1995-96 Chicago Bulls’ 72 wins are so impressive because it is very easy for the nightly grind of the NBA to trip teams up. Sure, injuries can easily cause losses, but so can scheduling quirks, off nights, opposing stars going off, or a million other things....

The Manchester United Backroom Power Struggle Theory We Desperately Hope Is True
There’s simply never enough intrigue and entertainment to be had from Manchester United to fully sate our appetite.

The Warriors Were No Match For Damian Lillard
Damian Lillard and the Portland Trailblazers put a royal whooping on the Golden State Warriors last night up in Portland. Yes, the Warriors were uncharacteristically sloppy and bad.

The Rockets Couldn't Dump Dwight Howard, So What Now?

The Warriors May Have No Bigger Fan Than Gregg Popovich
All-Star Weekend is a good breather from one of the least up-for-grabs NBA seasons in recent memory. If we want to be honest with ourselves, there are only three teams with realistic title hopes. And if we want to be really honest, the Cavs probably can’t hang with the West’s best—there are only two...
