Bill Simmons describes hearing about the Jaylen Brown trade from his wife picking him up from a colonoscopy:

“I think I’m dead. The anesthesia killed me. Are there more first round picks?

When this trade happened I had a camera in my ass, and I had Paul George rammed up my ass”

People have gotten used to the ’07 Air Force 1, but with Nike bringing back the ’01 cut, a new debate has spawned. Which one is better? @JLaPuma settles it.

The Knicks made history this year, bringing home the Larry O’Brien while giving us a playoff run full of great sneakers.
But which pair was the best of the run? @JLaPuma settles the debate 🗽🏆

[Complex Sneakers @ComplexSneakers]

Summer is here, which means it’s time to bring some different pairs out the closet. But what will run this summer? @JLaPuma ends the debate.

Knicks fans were celebrating and threw this cone perfectly on someone’s head

Time has flown, and we’re already halfway through 2026. A lot of sneakers have dropped already, but what’s sneaker of the year so far? @JLaPuma ends the debate.

Reunion: Odell Beckham Jr. is returning to the New York Giants, the team he last played for in 2018. Beckham visited the team again Monday, and is signing with New York.

[Mike Garafolo @MikeGarafolo]

Reunion time in East Rutherford: The #Giants are signing WR Odell Beckham Jr. after this morning’s workout, sources tell me and @RapSheet.

Beckham’s second audition for Big Blue results in a signing and his return to the organization almost 8 years after he was traded away.

Lousy weather in DC, took my little guy to the mall to get some new hoop shoes. Took me back to Irving’s Sports with my pop getting my first Dr. J’s. I was over the moon.

Reminded me that we do so much on line because of convenience, but the feeling for a kid to be in a store full of sneakers and getting to pick one is HIGH on the list of kid feelings.

Nigo helped redefine expressive design and color in footwear, bridging cultures and breaking barriers along the way. But what’s his best sneaker collab? @JLaPuma settles the debate.
