Chandler Parsons Owes Dirk Nowitzki Dinner For The Whole Season

Chandler Parsons Owes Dirk Nowitzki Dinner For The Whole Season

Last night, the NBA season tipped off with the Dallas Mavericks losing to the San Antonio Spurs on the road. The Mavericks might have lost the game, but Dirk Nowitzki was still a winner that night. Moral victory? Not so much. You see, Nowitzki’s teammate Chandler Parsons owes him dinner every night they’re on the road […]

Royals Force A Game 7, NBA Season Tips Off, I'm In Heaven

This time of year is one of the best times of the year for me in sports. Why? For one, the NBA season started tonight and I’m giddy like a little school girl who meets her celebrity crush. And B, the Kansas City Royals destroyed the San Francisco Giants 10-o, forcing a Game 7. There’s […]

Blake Griffin Describes His Experience At A Donald Sterling “White Party”

Blake Griffin Describes His First Experience At A Donald Sterling "White Party"

Yes, Donald Sterling had “White Parties”. And no, the party wasn’t only for white people and supremacists. C’mon, that would’ve been much easier to prove that he was a racist than an audio recording of him yelling racial slurs to his bi-racial, secret girlfriend/assistant/friend/crazy person. Blake Griffin was on “Conan” Monday night where the Los Angeles […]

VIDEO: Blake Griffin Finally Shows That He Has A Little Bite To Him

October 18, 2014 By Nick A.

If you don’t foul Blake Griffin hard, you’ll end up on his highlight reel. Griffin has been known to posterize pretty much anyone and anything that gets him in the way of the hoop. Because Griffin likes to leap over people, many players will foul him hard because most of them know that Griffin won’t retaliate. […]

Gordon Hayward Would "Crush" LeBron James At...

…Not at basketball, but at the game “League of Legends.” Yes, a video game. You have to hand Gordon Hayward some credit. The former Butler star posted the following headline to his Twitter account, and it looks like the teachers taught him a thing or too about catchy headlines. If I played @KingJames 1-on-1, I'd […]

Derrick Rose Blows Right Past Ty Lawson With Crossover

Looks like Derrick Rose’s knee is doing fine after the FIBA tournament. Rose has always been fast, but many are worried he’ll never get back to how he used to be. If there were any doubters about if Rose would be ready and healthy for the upcoming season, then they should take a look at […]

Want To Live & Swim At LeBron James' Miami Home?

Well, you’ll either have to know LeBron James or buy the house from him to do either of those. Seeing how you probably don’t know him, then it’s time to shell out the cash. And lucky for you, King James has listed his Miami, Florida home for sale. How much is it going to cost you […]

Blake Griffin Shows He's A Poet, Recites Magical Slam Poetry

Blake Griffin can do anything. He’s been an intern at Funny or Die, helped to stop evil-doers while also telling you about  all the glorious features of a Kia Optima, and now this. And now Griffin shows us his more artistic side. Slam poetry. That’s right. The Los Angeles Clippers forward has taken the stage […]

VIDEO: You Be The Judge & See If Derek Rose's Knee Is Okay

Forty-nine. That’s how many games Derrick Rose has played since his 2011 MVP season. I, personally, am a huge fan of Rose and have missed him ever since he tore his ACL against the Philadelphia 76ers in their playoff game in 2012. I’ve waited years for him to rehab and get back into playing shape and […]

See Ya, Donald Sterling! Judges OK's The Sale Of Clippers

Finally! We’re moving forward. After months of bickering and a bunch of he said, she said b.s., an LA superior court judge ruled that Donald Sterling’s wife, Shelley Sterling, lawfully reached an agreement to sell the Los Angeles Clippers to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. I’m not going to write much more beyond this for two […]
