Dwyane Wade

Pro wrestling is fake. It is as fake as Game of Thrones and The Godfather and Les Misérables and every other form of non-reality entertainment.

Stephen Curry Clowned LeBron James on Twitter Last Night During Game 3

stephen curry vine

So Stephen Curry was in charge of the SportsCenter Twitter feed last night during Game 3 of the NBA Finals. That feed boasts more than 5 million followers – that’s a lot of pressure for one guy to be entertaining for the course of more than two hours, right?

Steph took what we assume to be a lighthearted shot at LeBron James at halftime of the game after James stuggled mightily in first two quarters, coming up with just four points. Here’s the Vine video that Curry made for the SportsCenter account: Read More »

The NBA Draft is incredibly interesting to compare, especially when you look at the whole picture and each individual that was taken. The pieces shuffle dramatically when mixing and matching the “What if?” possibilities. Fans swear their franchises, and thank their lucky stars for management. They wish that their favorite college star fell one more pick and they are discouraged when they pass up a “guaranteed” star. After looking at the drafts from 1989-2000, it made sense to look at the drafts from 2001-2012 to see how they stacked up to each other. Read More »

Stephen Curry

Here’s the thing. If you took a few months off from the world and refused to watch this spring’s NBA Playoffs, what we’re about to tell you might be surprising.

Who’s Better: Stephen Curry Or Kyrie Irving?

Kyrie Irving

While many will argue Stephen Curry has always been a star — he does have career averages of 19.2 points and 6.1 assists a night as one of the greatest shooters any of us have ever seen — ankle issues and a lack of national exposure have kept him from the limelight (and the All-Star Game). But so far through 10 postseason games this spring, Curry now has the Warriors deadlocked with San Antonio at two games a piece in the conference semis while averaging 25 points and 8.3 assists, plus an absurd 3.9 triples a night.
