Two great NBA teams are unbeaten at home and the Spurs are determined to keep it that way in the best game of the season. The Warriors won their only previous meeting by 30, with Stephen Curry $10300 scoring 37 points in just 28 minutes. Kawhi Leonard $8300 and LaMarcus Aldridge $7300 will be out for revenge.

It’s not a Golden State Warriors game without at least a few Stephen Curry highlights, and Friday night’s contest against the Dallas Mavericks was no exception. Seriously. I’ve watched every single Warriors game this season and not a game went by without Curry doing something that simply makes you shake your head in disbelief. It never gets old because no matter how often he does it, it’s still something spectacularly impossible. [Read more…]
The NBA regular season ends in less than four weeks, and a lion’s share of the national articles until then will be about playoff teams, playoff contenders, awards and the pursuit of history. For the fans of teams with no hope of a postseason berth, this article is for you. The first annual All-Loser Teams feature three starting fives from franchises that will certainly be drafting in the lottery this year. It excludes teams such as Chicago, Washington, Detroit, Houston and

So now that I have revealed my Easter weekend plans (not really, but it is not 100 percent out of the question), I will reveal my mid-April plans: I am going to fill out my MVP ballot, and
It’s a busier-than-usual NBA Thursday with eight games, and we may not see as many lopsided high scores as last night. Several teams are in desperate bids for playoff positioning. [Read more…]
Add former NBA player turned rapper Daniel “Boobie” Gibson to the list of players who just can’t comprehend the things Stephen Curry can do on the floor. Curry, who is a walking human highlight film (apologies to the great Dominique Wilkins) every single time he’s on a basketball court, has baffled the minds and eyes of just about everyone who has seen him play this year. Whether he’s hitting a 30-footer with a hand in his face, putting on a dribbling
