A better title would be Super Bowl Broken. 

It’s normal for Pop to barely bat an eye. 

Offering two PGs to a team that already has a PG who is better than said PGs. Awesome bargaining skills, Lakers.

Fifteen points and 13 boards a game is All-Star material? Hate to say it, but like most gangly seven-footers, he’s boring as hell to watch. Even if he was getting 20 points and 15 boards a game I still wouldn’t give him my vote.

Man, if he’d put half as much time into developing a jumpshot as he did into hip thrusting, he might’ve had something of a career. 

LBJ joined a bunch of nobodies in LA, presumably because it’s...LA and the Lakers have a history. The same could be said for NY. The Knicks are a bunch of nobodies, but MSG itself is arguably the biggest stage in the sport. I’m sure there are plenty of big names who would be glad to play in the Big Apple. Even if the…

I’m sorry, but you could rewrite those words a million times and $72 million for fucking Joakim Noah still wouldn’t make any sense. 

I thank Jrue Holiday for providing the most satisfying highlights of the season thus far. There should be an NBA.com Top Ten just for him, with that dude that makes the cool rhymes. 

Spurs are gonna need some aloe vera for that Suns burn. 

It’s OK. The moronic decision to hold the Games in the hottest, most humid part of the summer will probably result in a boycott by the athletes, rendering the volunteers unnecessary.

“Is this the year the Raptors finally go all the way??” seems to be a question a lot of people are asking these days. I’m sorry, but if you can’t beat a depleted Rockets team that missed 36(!) fucking three pointers, I have a hard time imagining them making it to the ECF, let alone beating any of the top three teams…

This is exactly where I’d expect a team of such middling talent (without LeBron, and even sometimes with LeBron) to be. It’s a shame that LeBron is cursed with a savior complex, as it tends to make him take on tasks that are insurmountable, even for someone of such immense talent. Had he joined an already-established s…

I don’t give a fuck about the NFL, but, oh, I dunno, maybe fine or fire the dumbass referees??? 

I didn’t think the Lakers would throw in the towel before the All-Star break. But with all the injuries, can’t blame ‘em.

Klay Thompson not only set the record for threes in a game this year, he tied the record for most consecutive threes without a miss. He has the record for most points ever in a quarter. If he doesn’t make the team this year it’s because the WC collectively has a dearth of talent, not because he is any less of a…

Seeing Cousins get a ring? What has he done to deserve a ring? He gets injured, bails on his old team (which would be one of the best teams in the West if he’d stuck around), and joins a team that has already done all the heavy lifting? What’s the value of a ring if you don’t have to work for it?

None of those teams was ever as stacked as the Warriors and none of them ever posted a 32-5 playoff record in consecutive seasons. The competitive balance has never been worse than it is now. I have nothing against teams winning multiple championships. I just think they ought to earn it the hard way. But hey, if KD…

I’m sorry, better teams than this one? You’re saying the Warriors were better before Durant? Get outta here, Man. Since adding Durant, the Warriors are 32-5 in the playoffs. An unprecedented record for back-to-back playoff seasons. Now they have Cousins. If there are any other teams with five All-Stars, I’d be glad to…

We’ll have to agree to disagree then. Talent-wise, we’re in the Golden Age of the NBA, and yet as long as the Warriors have 5 bona fide All-Stars in their lineup, the competitive balance will remain grossly out-of-whack. The Warriors can achieve at 80% efficiency what every other team requires 110% efficiency to…

They may not go 16-0, but they’re still a shoe-in for the ring at this point. Who cares if a couple teams make it a series of the result is still the same? Whether they go 16-0 or 16-8, it’s still a supremely boring ending to the season.
