LeBron James is pumped about Jordan Peele‘s upcoming horror flick Us—and understandably so. The Lakers star responded to a GQ tweet that read: “Jordan Peele’s Next Movie Will Give You Nightmares.” James 100 percent agreed: Peele caught wind of James’ message, and thanked him for the support. He then jokingly teased a Nike ad in which […]
It’s best to not take Joel Embiid entirely seriously. More than most MVP candidates, and he’s in that discussion this season, Embiid realizes the unimportance of most off-the-court matters. When most everything can be construed as a joke, the tension inherent to contests of athleticism lessens. That’s likely why he got in a dig at Jazz big man Rudy […]
LeBron James has said Ben Simmons has the opportunity to be better than him, which isn’t an aggressive reach since the Sixer has won 2018 NBA Rookie of the Year. It doesn’t hurt that Simmons is pretty self-confident. He raced against the Jazz’s Donovan Mitchell for the ROTY prize, and Simmons angered hair-trigger Jazz fans when […]
For all the praise David Fizdale has received, only the LeBron-less Cavs have a worse record than the Knicks through the first 35 games of the season. The biggest reason isn’t the coaching, or even the ownership—though that’s always an issue. It’s their decided lack of talent. Kristaps Porzingis will likely convalesce well into the new year and maybe even […]
The world of sports has produced plenty of extraordinary moments over the past 12 months. From the Eagles winning their first Super Bowl to the Warriors capturing their third NBA championship in the last four seasons against the Cavaliers, not to mention Alabama and Villanova each adding another piece of hardware to their respective trophy […]
Jon Jones disparaged a reporter who dared to ask him about his positive drug test. On Thursday, the UFC held a press conference where Jones was questioned about the trace amounts of Turbinol found in his system. The finding wasn’t enough to warrant a suspension, but it did spark the Nevada Athletic Commission to decline […]
Coming into the 2018-19 NBA season, only the Warriors and Rockets really rivaled the Celtics in terms of talent. This was made even more apparent after the team, missing Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward, came within one game of advancing to the 2018 Finals. But the team stumbled out of the gate this season, which according […]
LeBron James was swept in the 2018 Finals. After the loss, he left the Cavaliers for the second time in his career to sign with the Lakers. But Bron’s legacy is very much in tact, as evidenced by him being named the Associated Press Male Athlete of the Year for the third time in his career (winning previously in […]
Chicago Bulls fans have every reason to be nostalgic. Aside from a promising young core that includes Lauri Markkanen, Wendell Carter Jr., and the high-flying antics of Zach LaVine, it’s probably easier to look back than forward. That helps explain why they serenaded Derrick Rose with “MVP” chants after he connected on a three-point play during Wednesday […]
Two New York Giants fans filed a lawsuit claiming that their First Amendment rights were violated when they were arrested during a game at Levi’s Stadium last year for heckling and flipping off players, according to the Mercury News. On Nov. 12, 2017, the Giants were losing to the then-winless San Francisco 49ers in the second half […]
