The Washington Wizards can't even tank properly

Ranking the NBA's rookie class so far (And No. 1 is not who you think it is)

God, I’m sick of the Kansas City Chiefs
Full disclosure, I’ve never been on board with the Kansas City Chiefs.

I’m sorry your wide receiver is a moron, Patrick Mahomes
While it’s hard to resist the temptation to point out noticing when a team that has Matt Nagy anywhere near it is melting down, because I know it oh, so well, the Kansas City Chiefs have bigger problems than that.

In Week 14, one of the best rivalries in recent memory gets renewed when the Buffalo Bills travel to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs.

This week in the NBA: Ime Udoka wrong to jaw with Lebron James; top 3 rookies are off to rough starts
Everyone who works for the NBA or one of its franchises should always behave in a professional manner. That being said, the head coach is supposed to be the person in charge of the team.

If it’s not good news, let’s just not talk about Zion Williamson
It’s open season on Zion Williamson.

Anthony Edwards is salty about being called an All-Star
The next time you’re out and about and happen to run into Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards, don’t dare refer to him as an All-Star.
