LeBron James is Handling a Dirty Chicago Bulls Team the Best Way Possible
If you think LeBron James is a flopper, you’re wrong. He might be selling it in order to make the best of a situation in which the Chicago Bulls have decided the only way they’re getting something out of their series with the Miami Heat is by playing anti-basketball and the hell with everything else, but there’s not much else he can do.

San Antonio Spurs – Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili & Tony Parker Messed Up in the Clutch
It’s usually about the San Antonio Spurs being better than everyone when their big three are playing together, especially when they’re all healthy and ready to go. But in game 4 of the Western conference semifinals, the intensity and physicality of the game seemed to be a bit too much for Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker, all disappointing as the team collapsed in the final 10 minutes of a game they had in their hands.

Golden State Warriors – Stephen Curry Has Andrew Bogut to Thank For
So many heroes in a huge playoff win for the Golden State Warriors, you don’t know where to begin. Stephen Curry is the obvious choice, playing on his problematic ankle and having a huge second half. Andrew Bogut, making life a living hell for Tim Duncan when it mattered the most. Jarrett Jack who simply has no fear coming off the bench. And Harrison Barnes, who probably tried a little bit too much, but enjoyed one of his biggest games in his short NBA career.

NFL Rumors – New York Giants & Victor Cruz Situation Getting Worrying
It seems we’re at a standstill, which means it’s bad for Victor Cruz. The New York Giants aren’t going to pay a slot receiver, a very good one but still not a number one wide receiver type the kind of money he thinks he deserves. Eventually, knowing they have Hakeen Nicks to pay for as well and secretly knowing he’s the better player when healthy, Cruz is the one who’s going to lose from all of his stalling.

Fabio Coentrao is the Stupidest Player Real Madrid Have
It might have been an honest mistake, but it seems some of the Real Madrid players weren’t that surprised that Fabio Coentrao showed up on the bench before their match against Espanyol even though he wasn’t in the squad, as Iker Casillas, Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo had a good laugh at his expense.

Chelsea FC – Rafa Benitez is a Success
No titles yet for Rafa Benitez, but at least he made it out of the huge minefield that was trying to keep Chelsea in the top 4 club and qualify into the Champions League. His rough start meant there will be no Premier League title, but despite the lack of ownership support (as always at Stamford Bridge) and quite a lot of fans making their displeasure with him filling the position being heard, the “Spanish waiter” did quite a good job in keeping the ship on the right course, with a chance to add a European trophy to the cabinet.

Transfer Rumors 2013 – Borussia Dortmund Getting Closer to Christian Eriksen
It’s been hard for quite some time, ever since the financial playing grounds changed for the worse on them, for Ajax to hang on to their best players. Christian Eriksen has been on the shortlist of many top European clubs for a few seasons now, but after winning his third Dutch title in three years, it seems that the approaches of Borussia Dortmund might finally tear him away from the club he has been with since the age of 16.

Lionel Messi Won’t Be Part of the Barcelona Garbage Time
It’s so rare to have Lionel Messi start and play an entire La Liga match for Barcelona without scoring even once, but at this stage of the season, with the title officially secured, what’s the point? Tito Vilanova didn’t ask too much of his players, who some of them, like Alexis Sanchez and Cesc Fabregas, need to show in the final moments that they deserve to be entrusted with his faith for next season, but they delivered three more points anyway, as Messi played his final match before he officially begins his summer vacation.

Manchester United – Wayne Rooney Ruins the Perfection of Alex Ferguson Leaving
Going against the club and especially against Alex Ferguson never earns a player too much adoration from the fans, but it was weird to hear so many boos for Wayne Rooney as he was walking over to pick up yet another Premier League winners’ medal, possibly his last with Manchester United.
