It's Here: Your Stanley Cup Final Game 1 Simulation In <i>NHL '94</i>
Time to fire up the Sega Genesis, because we’ve got our updated rosters in NHL ‘94 to simulate tonight’s Game 1 between the Capitals and Golden Knights, LIVE:...
Kyrie Irving Missed Game 7 Due To Corrective Nasal Surgery
A mild hubbub was made by Mark Jackson out of the absence of Kyrie Irving from Boston’s bench in Game 7. Jackson was het up, complaining that Kyrie is “more important than an assistant coach” and that it would be a real problem if Kyrie was “just at home chilling or somewhere not important,” instead...
Jayson Tatum Is Already A Monster
Jayson Tatum’s best highlight from Game 7 was a savage, driving, one-handed dunk directly over LeBron James, in the fourth quarter, when the Celtics needed a spark. This was certainly one way of doing it!...
Even Gassed LeBron Is Too Much LeBron
There was a point, relatively early in the second quarter of Game 7, where Terry Rozier peeled off Kyle Korver in the short corner to double-team LeBron James in the high post. It looked like an improvisation by Rozier—I can’t imagine Brad Stevens would ever script an action that leaves one of the N...
After Just One Season Playing For The Knicks
Poor Enes Kanter. Once so youthful and sturdy, with a shock of the darkest, most luscious hair. Still just 26 years old, and now grey as a heavy November sky. Playing for the Knicks will age even the strongest of us prematurely, I guess....
It Is Time For The Cavaliers To Unleash, Uhh, Jeff Green
Tyronn Lue announced during Cleveland’s Sunday shootaround that Jeff Green will start in place of the injured Kevin Love. This was sort of a foregone conclusion—the only other options on the roster are Rodney Hood and Cedi Osman; Hood hasn’t touched the floor since Game 2, aside from a couple minute...
There Is No Nicer Pitch Than This 69-MPH Quick Pitch
Sometimes a batter is in there stretching out like he owns the place, and gets fooled by a quick pitch. That’s pretty fun. Baseball should have lots of those. But Saturday’s Mets-Brewers game featured an entirely different kind of quick pitch—a slow as hell one, thrown almost by accident....
Mike Trout Reduces The Yankees To Cannon Fodder
Unbelievably, Saturday morning there were things Mike Trout had not accomplished in a game of baseball. For example, he had never bunted for a home run, nor had he ever killed a dragon with a baseball bat. It turns out he had also never had a five hit game. You can now scratch that last one off the ...
The Rockets Had A Hell Of A Chance, And Then The Warriors Woke Up
It feels weird to say this about a team that lost a road playoff game by 29 points, but, man, the Rockets blew it. Or, anyway, that’s the glass-is-half-empty take: Even without Chris Paul, even on the road, even going against an unbelievably loaded Warriors team desperate to stave off elimination, t...
Aaron Judge Can Sure Throw The Hell Out Of A Baseball
The Yankees eked out a narrow win over the Angels Friday night, in a game in which Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, Aaron Judge, and Giancarlo Stanton combined to go 1-of-13 from the plate. But that crummy hitting doesn’t mean the game was entirely without highlights from its marquee players—hearty lad Aa...
If That Was LeBron's Last Home Game With The Cavs, He Sure Made It Count
If you thought the Cavs were completely screwed when, down by four points and looking disjointed against an unflustered Celtics defense, they lost Kevin Love to a scary-looking head injury, man you were not alone. Love’s mostly been crap in this series—he’s producing 48 percent true shooting on 26.5...
Cavaliers Lose Kevin Love In First Quarter With Head Injury
Kevin Love, who has a history of brain injuries in the NBA, left tonight’s Game 6 against the Celtics just five minutes into the game after a collision with Jayson Tatum left him suffering with what looks like yet another head injury....
Chris Paul Is Out For Game 6, And Everything Is Grim Again
The verdict is in on Chris Paul, who was hurting a whole lot at the end of the Rockets’ Game 5 win: He’s out for Saturday....
The Most Painful Thing For Chris Paul Is Having To Watch
Chris Paul is, let’s say, a competitive person, probably to an unpleasant degree. He is also among the all-time greats at his position and finally, in his 13th season, making a deep run into the postseason. And he is also someone who, in the final minute of a conference finals Game 5, with a mere fo...
If The Warriors Are Going To Die, They Should At Least Die Pretty
The pre-series nightmare, for anyone who is a Warriors fan or particularly despises the Rockets’ brand of basketball, went something like this: The Warriors, a free-flowing, elegant offensive team that so often makes the experience of watching them feel transcendent, would be outpaced by the cold ca...
The Rockets Have An Answer For The Warriors<em></em>
In a game that saw James Harden go 0-for-11 from three point range, the Houston Rockets didn’t have to reckon with disaster. Instead, they beat the Warriors with defense, winning Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals 98-94 by neutralizing some of the toughest-to-guard players in the NBA....

Donald Trump Definitely Needs Glasses
It wasn’t supposed to be this way. The plan was just to keep on honking away like big idiots about the NBA playoffs for as long as we possibly could, and Drew and I were certainly ready to hold up our end of that bargain. But the stupendous lameness of the NBA playoffs at this moment and the simulta...
