Kobe is like MJ’s kid. He’s a clone of him on the court. Of course he’s going to find a reason to pick Bryant over LeBron. I may not agree with it...but it is what it is.

It’s because they’re essential to the game, yet they never get praise and are rarely respected. Kind of like a teacher. That promotes lots of passive aggressiveness.

“Hipster racism of a dipshit Chicago fan?” What eloquence! You’re doing your part to #MakeDeadspinGreatAgain!

I don’t think any other game reminds me more of college. Some folks had GoldenEye or Mario Kart, but everyone played this game in my dorm. I may have personally enjoyed NBA 2k11 more (I grew up in Chicago in the 90s, there is bias here), but FIFA 98 will always have a place in my heart. Leading small island nations to…

IDK why this doesn’t have more stars.

This is a very niggardly way of looking at things. Wait...Shoot. Now I am banned.

Translation? Black people have to make white people a certain amount of money if they want to have a voice on anything. Good job supporting this philosophy!

Stop erasing her South Asian identity. Her middle name is “Devi.” Let’s celebrate all of her, not just part.

He just had a bad series. Two years ago, the Cavs don’t beat the Bulls in the playoffs without Shump’s shot making. LeBron turned him into a great player and he was hitting every open look. I’ll bet he has a rebound year next season.

Yeah. That was the narrative with the Bulls with Jordan and Pippen. This isn’t fresh ground like Barry would like it to be. Folks tuned in to see the super team, to see if they could be defeated or continue their rein. This is good for the NBA, overall. It’s only bad if you are a vested fan of a specific team who…

Dwayne Wade is 35 years old. This is not good Kinja.

YOU FORGOT CARRIE KELLEY!

I hate this argument. It’s typical deflection BS. You can only address the problem if you directly acknowledge it. Alleviating racist guilt by saying “we’re just as racist as anywhere else” is total ass clown behavior. Minorities are sick of this response. Racism is a national problem? Who cares....the sky is blue,…

So normalizing this is a good response. Thank you, Sean Spicer/Bill Simmons.

No matter: May’s loving gaze in that photo has readily succeeded in making contact with my soul.

You really believe an anonymous report put out by local Boston media? Obviously the C’s wouldn’t leak misinformation to give reason to their fans why Ainge sat on his hands at the trade deadline...and BOS fans wouldn’t be so eager to believe it. I can taste the NACL from here.  

If the Celtics wanted George or Butler, they needed to offer both first rounders. They rest of that offer is an island of misfit toys. Ainge will regret it and it will be wonderful to drink those salty Boston tears.

No one ever wants to know “WHAT ARE THOSE?”

as a bulls fan, I must say, this is not good. It is not good at all.

Illinois fans would say the Flying Illini team started that trend. So blame Lou Henson, damnit, blame him!
