There is no chance in hell that contract is anywhere remotely in the neighborhood of badness that contains Joakim Noah’s contract.

Why is there a toad sitting next to Louie CK?

That letter is a lot less comical sans the font.

Honestly, him breaking his leg was probably the best thing for the Pacers. He might have hit the requirements for that max contract if he didn’t miss all but 6 games of 2014-15, but then the Pacers wouldn’t have Myles Turner and would be even more fucked.

Hang in there, Neil Jung!

This is one of the worst weeks of my life. Someone hit my car and fucked up the driver-side passenger door and didn’t leave a note, I got dumped via email and now this.

Its disingenuous. Atlanta is a team mostly in the playoffs, or at least on the fringe, keeping them in the 10-20 range most years. Those picks are ok but not like top of the draft picks. Adding PG would make them worse picks for Indiana. You don’t rebuild with picks in the teens

Pritchard’s response? Break a leg.

Rather than wait a year, LA should trade half their roster and throw in a first rounder. The Knicks wouldn’t have become the dynasty they are today had they waited.

That tweet..... Jesus.

This sucks. As a Pacers fan, you could see this a mile away and yet they refused to move him when they had maximum leverage. Now we’ll get three quarters on the dollar.

The thing about Isaiah is, he doesn’t even have to exit his prime to fall off next season. It’s incredibly unlikely that he’ll be able to reproduce the year he had this year, just because it was such an unlikely season. He’s an awesome player, but if he slides back just a little bit, particularly in the realm of…

I heard Barron Trump calls Robert Mueller “Papa Bob.” People are saying this.

I disagree with that. I think the NBA is a national sport at this point (like the NFL, and unlike baseball and hockey, which are entirely regional sports), and can be successful with the vast majority of fans knowing their own teams have no chance. But if there are multiple contenders and good, close playoff series,…

At least Tyson didn’t have to fight 80 regular season fights and then do several tiers of best of 7 playoff fights before uppercutting some flabby side of beef into next week.

I used to work four buildings down from P-Diddy’s restaurant “Justin’s” in New York. Shortly after meeting the woman I’m now married to, I was walking by the restaurant with her on the way to the office, and she asked if lots of gangsters hung out there. I told her that, nah, that wasn’t really Diddy’s scene and that…

“The transition from running-and-gunning to gun-running isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.”

See, WWE? THIS is how you book a long-term feud!

The Deadspin staff is a bunch of Channing Fryes convincing the other Channing Fryes that they’re not the Channing Frye.
