St. Petersburg: Yankees 4, Rays 3
Hey, Ichiro still plays for the Yankees, remember? He's hitting only .220 this year, but he was the hero last night when his go-ahead, two-run single in the top of the ninth inning sealed a Yankees win.

Los Angeles: Angels 5, Rangers 4
The Angels won in the bottom of the 11th inning thanks to a walk-off home run from Howie Kendrick, who also homered in the fourth inning.

Denver: Braves 10, Rockies 2
Playing in the second game of a frigid doubleheader, Justin and B.J. Upton hit back-to-back home runs, which is just really neat. That's the first time two brothers have gone back-to-back since 1938.

Denver: Warriors 131, Nuggets 117
Everything about this game was ridiculous. The Warriors shot 64 percent from the field and 56 percent from three-point range. The Nuggets, one of the best transition in the league, managed to score only eight fast-break points, and they played atrocious defense all night. They scored

New York: Knicks 87, Celtics 71
The Celtics were just so goddamn depressing to watch in this game. They scored 23 points and shot 19 percent from the field in the second half. Remember when Rajon Rondo had to take on the Heat by himself last year? Yeah, this is why.

Miami: Heat 98, Bucks 86
The Bucks actually kept this one close for an entire half, and then the Heat opened the third quarter by scoring 12 points in about four seconds, and that was that. Also, Dwyane Wade did this:

I feel like this is the internet's general attitude towards him at all times. I feel bad about everyone being so demanding, but goddamn I will be mad if he dies before these books are finished. Read more

Well, it's important to remember that at the time of the trade Gordon was on the cusp of becoming one of the best shooting guards in the league. Read more

Machu Picchu: Scott Fujita retires like a goddamn boss
Oh me? Yeah I'm just signing a one-day contract and retiring as a Saint from the top of Machu Picchu. No big deal!

New York: J.R. Smith wins Sixth Man of the Year award
Congrats, J.R. You gave us all the pipe.

St. Petersburg: Rays 5, Yankees 1
Matt Moore was just plain filthy in this game. He allowed just two hits and one run in eight innings while striking out nine. Also, the Rays have a "craft beer" stand now, too. Hurray!

Washington, DC: Cardinals 3, Nationals 2
Ace-in-the-making Shelby Miller shut down the Nats through six-and-two-thirds innings, striking out eight and allowing just two runs. For some reason, I really enjoy the fact that baseball now has a stud pitcher named Shelby. We need a Merle, too.

Baltimore: Orioles 2, Blue Jays 1
This one had to sting for the Blue Jays. An easy grounder to shortstop would have ended the ninth inning had Munenori Kawasaki not short-hopped his throw to first. Of course, Nick Markakis made the Jays pay for the error by driving in the winning run in the next at bat.

Brooklyn: Bulls 90, Nets 82
The Bulls were able to steal Game 2 on the road thanks to Deron Williams and Gerald Wallace deciding to shit the bed, and a gutsy performance from Joakim Noah, who was basically playing on one leg. [stares daggers at Derrick Rose].

Seriously, we can't talk enough about this shot, which had absolutely no business going in. Paul was left with just four seconds to make something happen after the Clips wasted nearly all of the clock setting a pick for him that didn't even work, had to get a shot up against one of the best defenders in the league who Read more

That was definitely my favorite part. So much sniveling. Read more
