All season long, everyone and their mothers automatically pencilled the Boston Celtics into the Finals, disregarding the other 14 teams in the Eastern Conference. And I get it. They’re the defending champions, having marched through a Miami Heat team, playing without 6-time NBA All-Star, Jimmy Butler. Then they beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, playing without Donovan […]

At the end of Game 4, with the Boston Celtics minutes away from going down 3-1 to the New York Knicks, Jaylen Brown committed a disgusting turnover, forcing Jayson Tatum to quickly change directions before crumbling to the floor with a non-contact ankle injury. Man this video of Jayson Tatum’s injury making me tear up […]
Following the 2025 NFL Draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers signed undrafted interior defensive lineman, Desmond Watson, out of Florida.

Welcome to Free Throws, Deadseriousness’s weekly NBA column, getting some shots up and tossing around some basketball takes. This week, we have a breakdown on why the Boston Celtics are down 0-2 in the second round, a whistleblower on the Draymond Green Agenda™ and some quick Tyrese Haliburton slander, as a treat. The […]
After finally getting over the hump last season and winning his first NBA Championship, something weird happened with Jayson Tatum. Many agree Tatum is the best player on the Boston Celtics but both the Conference Finals MVP as well as the Finals MVP awards were given to his teammate, Jaylen Brown. But it happens. Steph […]

Piers Morgan is one of the best journalists we have today—hosting a TV show in which he brings on social media agitators to argue with educated, informed guests about super lowkey, low stakes topics like racism, antisemitism and war. Recently, he had on that one girl who lost a swim race, like ten years ago—using […]
You could either have a durable wing player capable of generating his own shot whenever he wants and single-handedly wrecking opposing teams’ offensive possessions—OR—you can have a mystery box full of endless wonder and possibility. The Knicks chose the former, electing to send their mystery box (4 unprotected first-round picks) to the Brooklyn Nets in […]
We certainly do not condone violence here at Deadseriousness. Hashtag Cease Fire. But sometimes you have to whoop some ass when an overserved, overconfident space invader appears. What happened at the Pirates game? Last night, a Pittsburgh Pirates security guard laid hands, feet (and belt), fair reaction to a wino spitting at them. This Pirates […]

Monday night was the 2025 Met Gala—the place where celebrities and models and people who are famous for simply having symetrical faces—all gather to dress like assholes to remind us regular folk we are less than. But my guy Timothée Chalamet had to skip this year’s festivities and had a great reason as to why. […]
Last night, I hovered over my bed—replaying all of my favorite moments from the Knicks stealing Game 1 of their second-round series against the Boston Celtics—a team that annihilated them on the first night of this season—breaking the record for most 3’s in a single game. Garbage time started with 9 minutes left in that […]
