After a truly shocking NBA Draft Lottery on Tuesday night, preeminent takesman Skip Bayless of FS1’s Undisputed chimed in on the proceedings, as well his opinions on where Zion Williamson should have ended up. Interestingly, Skip argued that Williamson “belonged in New York,” citing that “Zion-to-the-Knicks” was a foregone conclusion before the NBA Draft Lottery. […]

The Golden State Warriors cruised to a 116-94 victory against the Portland Trail Blazers in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals.

The Los Angeles Lakers won’t be trading LeBron James unless the three-time champion asks out of Southern California, and the Philadelphia 76ers will almost surely hang onto Ben Simmons for the foreseeable future. But that didn’t stop FOX Sports’ Undisputed from fanning the flames of speculation about the future of the oversized playmakers with their respective teams […]

When Kawhi Leonard forced his way out of San Antonio last summer after playing just nine games during the 2017-18 campaign due to a mysterious quad injury, it rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. Leonard reportedly wanted Los Angeles, but he did not get his wish, as the Spurs dealt him to the […]

Skip Bayless tore Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard apart on Monday during his Undisputed segment with Shannon Sharpe.

"Kawhi Leonard missed 22 games this year […]

On Sunday evening, Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard hit the biggest shot in Raptors playoff history. Off balance and falling out of bounds, Leonard somehow got the shot off over Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid. As the entire crowd held their breath, the ball hit the rim three times before finally settling in. The elated […]

Houston Rockets star James Harden already had a reputation for not playing his best in the playoffs, and he didn’t exactly do himself any favors this year after a second-round exit to the Golden State Warriors. Naturally, Harden is now the subject of much criticism, and both Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe of Fox Sports […]

After the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Toronto Raptors in Game 6 of their second round playoff series, Fox Sports analyst Skip Bayless believes the Sixers now have the advantage. The winner-take-all Game 7 is scheduled to take place on Sunday in Toronto, meaning the Raptors will have the homecourt advantage. However, Bayless believes that the […]

Just as he has done all year, Houston Rockets star guard James Harden has been Houston’s best player during the team’s Western Conference semifinal against the Golden State Warriors.

N’Keal Harry changed the equation in Foxborough. The New England Patriots are not known for drafting wide receivers in the first round.

Will Grier is the second-best QB behind Kyler Murray in this draft, and somebody is about to get a steal of the […]

Skip Bayless continues going out of his way to criticize Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell. The FOX Sports personality, co-host of Undisputed, recently named embattled Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger as his early favorite for MVP next season, evidently using the offseason departures of both superstar playmakers as chief justification for his pick. “I’m gonna make [Roethlisberger] my […]

Fox Sports commentator Skip Bayless wasted no time in raining on New York Jets fans’ parade.

Bayless however, isn’t ready […]

The Antonio Brown carousel continues to turn, with less than two weeks until the March 17th date he’s expected to be traded by.

During a discussion on who is the best foreign player to ever play in the NBA, FS1’s Shannon Sharpe said Houston Rockets legend Hakeem Olajuwon is the clear answer.

Fox Sports’ Skip Bayless sent out a Tweet daring LeBron James to make his return on Friday against the Golden State Warriors. For Bayless, this would somehow give the Los Angeles Lakers superstar more credibility if he came back during that contest. LEBRON: I DARE YOU TO PLAY YOUR FIRST GAME SINCE DEC. 25 BACK AT […]

They say referees can’t cost you a game, and that is true. After all, there are 60 minutes in a football game for you to do whatever you can to win, so unless the officials are making countless bad calls that critically affect your rhythm as a team, you can’t blame them if you lose. […]

Skip Bayless actually likes somebody, and that’s perhaps press-worthy in and of itself. The sports commentator took time out of his day in between complaining about new Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur and comparing every other NFL head coach to him (and, apparently, letting us all know that everyone else is Tom Landry […]

Skip Bayless is continuing to malign Matt LaFleur while singing the praises of other coaches. The sports commentator and totes-flexing dudebro took to his Twitter to sing the praises of the Arizona Cardinals’ procurement of Kliff Kingsbury as their new head coach. Kliff Kingbury is a much better hire than Matt LaFleur. At least Kingsbury has […]

He mad — he big mad. The Green Bay Packers have just announced that they agreed to a four-year deal — with a fifth-year option — for incoming head coach Matt LaFleur, and while most people seem to be relatively happy with this news, Skip Bayless is less than pleased with this turn of events. […]

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving made one of the most memorable shots in the history of the league as a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2016, burying the go-ahead 3-pointer in Game 7 of the NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors, which helped the Cavs secure a stunning victory. Two years later, Irving […]
