It is a town on the planet Earth, so...yes?

That 4th quarter lineup you highlighted was an institutional failure. I get that Luc Mbah a Moute and Wes Johnson are not awesome, but they needed some size out there to deal with the Jazz. Crawford at the 4 and Felton not at the Golden Corral solves zero basketball equations.

Unless Riot starts blowing up Korean teams, pretty sure TSM is as boned today as they were yesterday.

There’s 1-2 instances of this a year that merit a suspension; the other thousands of pro players figure out a way to talk shit and be awful to each other without running afoul of the hate speech rules that are agreed to as terms of their contract.

I understand why they nuked their NHL coverage, but they own MLB rights. Gutting shows that cross-promote their live baseball games was absurd.

I haven’t been impressed with the content on Compete so far, but I think the idea of an esports vertical makes a lot of sense due to the increase in popularity, money, and investment from actual sports entities (the Heat, 76ers, and former NBA-er Rick Fox have poured significant money into their respective eSports…

“Welcome to SportsCenter. I’m Bob Ley and Jeremy Schaap will be joining me shortly.”

I love all these “please fire X” posts, as if ESPN won’t find someone shittier for us to hate on the cheap.

I’ve never not laughed at that .gif. It’s just so perfect.

“It’s Go Time!”

In that dead dude’s defense, all almond milk is the wrong flavor. The correct milk flavor is milk!

It’s legit weird seeing gifs like this that don’t end in “Thanks Obama”.

Good catch, I completely forgot about when Lebron murdered their soul in G6.

They’ve struggled to re-tool their roster, but the Pacers went to the conference finals twice, and the season before those they had a 2-1 lead on the Heatles in the semis. They’re the only team that’s pushed Lebron in the East this decade. If that’s terrible, we’re all terrible.

It says people aren’t required by law to adhere to Deadspin’s point of view on everything.

I’d ask Dolan why the Knicks agreed to two more years of Phil, but he’d probably just yell at me and call me a drunk.

Heat/Cs would’ve been feisty as hell; I’m super-bummed about having to watch the Bulls’ bloated carcass instead.

Dear North Carolina,

Conceptually, I’m on board with this. He provides double plus good defense on a team with pitchers that don’t strike anyone out; as long as he doesn’t develop the batting equivalent of Rick Ankiel syndrome just roll with it.
