NBA legend and current TNT analysis Charles Barkely says 25 years ago the Warriors, and specifically Stephen Curry, would just get beat up. The game has changed and nowadays you can’t even look at an opposing player cockeyed without getting hit with a technical. I miss the old days…

Stephen Curry Is Shooting Lights Out
If you’ve been following the NBA at all so far this year you’ll have noticed two things:
1. Lebron is still flopping.
2. Stephen Curry is still amazing.
Seriously this dude has had four 40+ point games this year so far and his defense is even better than last year. This highlight reel is from last night’s game against the Timberwolves (who had the worst record in the league last year) who actually made it a respectable game (until Curry checked back in and lit them up). Curry ended up with 46 points.

Stephen Colbert Took On Stephen Curry Last Night
Last night Colbert took on Curry in a Stephen VS Stephen shootout (with dirty laundry) to find out who should be the number 1 search result on google. This whole “Stephen VS Stephen” title reminded me of the classic “Even Stephen” segment on The Daily Show so for no reason at all here’s that because it was some of the best TV ever:
Kevin Love Fails In This NBA Live 16 Glitch
I haven’t played an NBA Live game in a while but if there’s glitches like this in it I might have to start playing again. Glitches can be annoying but are more often than not the best part of the game. I’ve covered this before with this hilarious Madden glitch, this The Witcher glitch, and this FIFA 16 glitch.
NBA’s Gerald Green Can Jump Really High
This is Gerald Green (currently plays guard for the Miami Heat) getting his head above the rim with what looks like absolutely no effort at all. If you remember he won the dunk contest in 2007:
Screw it, let’s just watch some in game dunk highlights while we’re at it (I desperately want basketball to start…)
Pau Gasol Likes To Scream A Lot
Pau Gasol has always annoyed the s**t out of me because of his flopping. I know he’s a great player but c’mon dude, enough with the screaming and flopping around. The only Gasol I like is the “getting dunked on by Blake Griffin” Gasol.
Basketball Player Andrew Wiggins Trying To Rap Is Embarrassing
I don’t know the context of this video but that doesn’t really matter. The only thing that matters is Mr. Wiggins should stick to basketball and cut this rapping business out.
Guy Hilariously Won’t Give His Girlfriend Ice Cream
This guy might just be my new personal hero. Also they probably broke up on the way home from the game.

The music in this video is pretty lame but it’s still enough to make me wish it was basketball season again. Of course this being from the NBA there’s way more Lebron stuff in here than anyone else. I’d love to see an NBA all-time rituals mix, because some rituals are so bad they’re…well bad, but at least entertaining:
Reggie Miller Picks Larry Bird Over Lebron
Reggie Miller was recently asked on the Dan Patrick Show if he’d pick Larry Bird in his prime or Lebron James in his prime. Our man reggie picked the Bird-man over the flopper…I mean the King, whatever you want to call him. I might be biased here because I am a “Lebron hater” but that doesn’t mean I’m agreeing with Reggie just because of that. Let’s check the stats:
Credit to @bostonceltics4ever for the pic
Larry Bird’s ahead on almost evert stat (although not by much), and that’s when the league was much more physical and not as flop-a-licious as it is today. Again, full disclosure, I do hate Lebron James. But that doesn’t mean I don’t think he’s one of the best to play the game, but I’m agreeing with Reggie on this one. What do you guys think, do you agree with Reggie or think Lebron is a better overall player than Bird?

Is this the best Russell Westbrook impression of all time? Yes, it’s the best Russell Westbrook impression of all time.
Watch This Mavericks Fan Lose His Mind Over DeAndre Jordan
If you’re unaware of what this nutbag is talking about a quick recap is DeAndre Jordan made a verbal agreement with the Dallas Mavericks to leave the LA Clippers (possible over their new terrible logo) and sign with them. Well yesterday he must have decided it’s better to live in LA than in Dallas because he changed his mind. It’s a pretty big f**k you to Dallas and owner Mark Cuban. Here’s an exlusive look at DeAndre’s reacting watching this kid’s rant video:
Jason Williams Son Will Cross You Up & Break Your Ankles
Jason Williams (a.k.a White Chocolate) was one of my favorite players when he was balling for the Kings. I loved his no f**ks given attitude and his passing skills were second to none. Well apparently his 13 year old son can ball (also looks just like his dad). This post is mostly an excuse to watch some old J. Will highlights while I find his jersey in my closet.
This Is What Happens When A Tall Dude Pretends To Get Drafted By The Jazz
So this freakishly tall internet blogger went to the NBA draft pretending to be a player and the results are amazing! He gets on the floor of the draft, everyone wants selfies with him, gets free drinks, and the women…oh the women. The women are thirsty out there for some young, about to be rich dude and just start ripping their clothes off and making out with him! Oh what a life it must be.
Knicks Fans Not Happy With Draft Pick
These poor Knicks can’t catch a break. Last night the Kicks drafted Kristaps Porzingis and that made this one kid cry…so let’s all laugh at him.
Stephen Curry’s Wife Can Drain Some 3s Also
Damn that’s a smooth looking jumper. Stephen Curry has been teaching his wife Ayesha some things. Maybe after she has her baby she should go out for the WNBA.
Jimmy Kimmel Gives Hannibal Buress Cheap-ass NBA Seats
Hannibal Buress asked Jimmy Kimmel for a ticket to Game 5 of the NBA finals. He got them, but they were waaaaaay in the back.
Klay Thompson Takes Shot At Lebron In Post Game Press Conference
After game 5 Lebron James called himself the best player in the world. It’s the kind of egomaniacal statement that made me write why I dislike him so much. So last night after the Warriors beat the Cavs in game 6 Klay had a little fun with Lebron’s statement. Even though Lebron James had a historically good finals appearance and Klay Thompson was pretty much trash this series it’s still pretty funny. On a side note, let’s see if Jordan would call himself the best player in the world:
