I will never forget CBS Sports giving the New York Knicks a D+ for drafting Immanuel Quickley with the no. 25 pick in the 2020 NBA Draft. Since then, he’s become a microwave scorer capable of putting up extraordinary numbers in limited minutes off the bench. He would’ve won the Sixth Man of the Year […]
The New York Knicks traded RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley to Toronto for OG Anunoby. He made his debut on New Year’s Day and was vital in New York’s victory over the no. 1 seeded Minnesota Timberwolves. Here’s what OG did in his first day wearing a Knicks jersey: 35 minutes 17 points 7-for-12 from […]
For my entire lifetime as a New York Knicks fan, James Dolan has hired the worst front-office executives in NBA history. In 2005, Isiah Thomas gave up a first-round draft pick and a pick swap to the Chicago Bulls for Eddy Curry—an obese, undersized center with a heart condition. In 2010, the Knicks attempted to […]
From the moment Anthony Edwards did his first interview, it was clear he was built different. On the court, he has the raw athleticism of Michael Jordan and off the court, he has Michael Jordan’s aura and star power. This season, especially in that overtime win against the Celtics last month, Edwards has shown he […]
This is the most competitive Western Conference race of my NBA-watching life. The best team right now is the Minnesota Timberwolves and if they went on a 10-game losing streak would you be surprised at all? The 13-10 Houston Rockets currently sit at the 11th seed ahead of the Phoenix Suns. Everyone in that building […]
Everyone loses from time to time. Some of us lose more than others. Not me though. I’m a massive sore loser who will flip a table over if I even think you’re cheating at Scrabble. I’ve been physically removed from parties for knocking over beer-pong tables when I was losing. But the Detroit Pistons are […]
Draymond Green punched another player in the face again. I have nothing cute to say about it. Man just cannot stop beating the shit out of his opponents. This time it was Jusuf Nurkic on the receiving end of another Draymond beatdown. Draymond has been ejected after flagrant foul on Nurkić pic.twitter.com/RmrLU5tdw8 — Bleacher Report […]
I was excited about the NBA In-Season Tournament. I’m all in on finding ways to make games in November matter. The Lakers beat the Pacers 123-109. LeBron adds another bullet point to his resume while Indiana proved they aren’t some vague team of the future. They’re here now. Let’s start with the winners of […]
NBA Commissioner, Adam Silver, has always been strange to me. Like, he looks like he collects women’s clothing. What he does with them is his business but there’s something off about this man who looks like he speaks fluent Parseltongue. And then he went on the Pat McAfee show this week to hype up the […]
From the very first moment I saw Quentin Grimes getting minutes, I knew he was going to win this franchise a championship. I even went as far as declaring he’d have a better career than Donovan Mitchell two summers ago when the Knicks passed up on trading for one of the most overrated players in […]
Mark Cuban is selling the Dallas Mavericks for around $3.5 billion to the Adelson family. However, he’s maintaining a role as governor of the team in control of basketball operations. After 23 years of ownership, Cuban is finally giving the keys away and. As much as I love Deadseriousness, I will gladly sell this shit […]
At the time I’m writing this, the Oklahoma City Thunder are on a 6-game winning streak and are tied with the Minnesota Timberwolves for first place in the Western Conference. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is a potential MVP candidate with Chet Holmgren dominating on both sides of the floor. Josh Giddey fills his role as an unselfish […]
I currently have about $15 in my bank account right now and I’m rounding up to the nearest 15. But there I go bragging about my privilege again. A guy like Indianapolis Colts owner, Jim Irsay, would kill to trade lives with someone like me. In a recent interview with HBO Sports, Jim Irsay spoke […]
Have you ever reached in the fridge for milk only to open it up and realize it’s gone bad? That smell of dead bodies reminding you it’s time to go grocery shopping again. Some people refuse to acknowledge their milk’s gone bad and they pour that curlded nightmare into their cereal anyway. Like the Los […]
The New York Knicks are 6-5 this season which is a decent start considering their leading scorer, RJ Barrett, has missed 4 games and they’ve already played the Celtics twice this year. But there’s one player on this team who is singlehandedly keeping the Knicks heads above water. MITCHELL ROBINSON IS THE BEST BIG IN […]
In his 9th NBA season, at the age of 27 and playing for his 5th NBA franchise, Kelly Oubre Jr. is finally making a real impact on a basketball court. After years of just being another random guy in the league, Oubre and the Sixers were a perfect match. Until of course….the accident. What happened […]
