Baron Davis is really the best. I mean, between the beard, hipster glasses, his enormous knee brace, and one of the greatest dunks of all time, how could you not cheer for the guy? The only way we could love him more is if he grew a jheri curl and started rocking James Worthy goggles [...]
Before the NBA ad team had to spend an hour squeezing Bird and Magic back into their jerseys, but dammit, it was worth it. Also, does anyone else think that Larry Bird now looks like an actual bird? Discuss.
This picture just about says it all doesn’t it? I mean, I have to admit that I didn’t think the Cs could pull it off but tonight’s 98-88 win has me believing that they might not only win the whole thing but could potentially pull it off in less than seven games. Honestly, before tonight, [...]
Featuring past and future Arizona Wildcats, Jerryd Bayless and Brandon Jennings, this movie looks like streetball at its best and features a new Beastie Boys track as well as Jay-Z and Nas on the soundtrack.

I think I speak for all Celtics fans when I say, “Pheeeew” as I wipe sweat from my brow. After the loss on Friday night, it had gotten way past the point of ‘okay, this isn’t funny anymore.’ The series shouldn’t have gotten this far but all Boston fans should be thankful that Josh Smith, [...]
Since this is the last year that the numbered Jordan’s will be available, we thought we’d post this for you. The newest Jordan commercial, debuting during the first round of the NBA playoffs gives us goosebumps like we’re twelve years old again. Enjoy.
The New York Times has a great breakdown, forgive the pun, of how Frank Gehry’s Atlantic Yards project has lost its once promising footing. Jay-Z’s arena for the soon-to-be Brooklyn Nets is about all that remains for the development. Critics are skeptical if this is enough to revitalize Brooklyn, leery of the fact [...]
Two classic American brands that represent true innovation in culture and fashion have announced a — what else can we call it — mind-blowing partnership.
Nike and its Jordan Brand have teamed with Levi Strauss & Co. to create a “limited-edition, co-designed collection, known as 23 / 501″ according to a press release (via Hypebeast). Products will be available [...]
Yes, I realize this happened on Saturday, but we just launched the blog today so sue me. Dwight Howard’s performance in the dunk contest was otherworldly.
