Don’t forget Matt Carroll!!!

I finished a basketball practice and went to a couple periods of school with one. And I’m a pussy. It takes a while for it to really start hurting ... after the air has been leaking into your chest cavity for a while and really pushing on shit.

Now playing

To be fair to Megyn Kelly, she’s pretty much full of shit ...

Harold Fucking Carmichael.

A one-handed, 40-foot bounce pass, while not exactly basic, isn’t quite the feat of inhuman athleticism that it’s being made out to be here today.

It’s a nice pass, but this is a play that a local coach I know loves. I’ve seen him have his below-average girls high school basketball teams run it many times before and nobody was losing their minds over it. The “LeBron James as basketball genius” storyline, while accurate, can tend to stretch itself a little thin.

It’s OK, Joel. A young Kevin Durant once made the same mistake. Steph Curry isn’t white.

Goodell has reportedly been overheard telling subordinates that everybody knows a kicker couldn’t beat anybody up.

That’s funny because whenever someone says Hillary isn’t center-right, I do the same. She’s obviously the “best” choice in this election ... but that’s more an admission of just how far right the American political system has moved than any kind of progressive values Hillary may hold dear.

We share a hometown (don’t hold it against me) and while I don’t personally know her, you will be completely unsurprised to learn that I have yet to meet anyone who does that has anything good to say about her.

Gerry McNamara should know that an Irish-American kid from Scranton isn’t going to get any love at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.

Ah. So 538 is telling me the NBA was infinitely stronger in 1985 than 2009. I get it now.

538 just told me the ‘09 Cavaliers were better than the ‘85 Lakers too. I know a lot more about basketball than they or Brian Windhorst do.

Boy. That’s quite the argument. Peak LeBron is better than washed-up Kobe with 80-year-old legs? You don’t say. Next you’re going to tell me I’d be stupid to pass the ball to 50-year-old Michael Jordan over LeBron.

The 6-foot, 200-pound Jim Thorpe?

If you and I play on a basketball team together and our teammates pass you the ball when we need to score baskets, as much as I, my family, friends and fans might want to believe that I’m better than you, the guys on our team are telling me that I’m not. Really.

Remember that time LeBron and Kobe played on the same team at the ‘08 Olympics and they were in a dogfight against Spain? Who did the greatest players in the world go to for the win? (Hint: It wasn’t LeBron).

Kyrie Irving’s quote after the 2016 NBA Finals was a wonderful window into the soul of the game.

Tell that to Johnny Bach who actually coached both of them and says Jordan was the better defender.
