Apparently, Chris Paul has some serious bad blood with the. . . Red Hot Chili Peppers?

MediaNews Group/Orange County Register via Getty ImagesOK, so Chris Paul having bad blood with someone else isn't the most shocking news in the world. The hyper-competitive point guard/professional instigator has had issues with just about every player in the NBA from opponents like DeMarcus Cousins and Rajon Rondo to teammates like Blake Griffin and James Harden, the latter of which is why he was banished to Oklahoma City in off-season. But a beef with a rock band? That's a new one.

According to Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, though, Paul has a history of bad blood with both himself and lead singer Anthony Kiedis. The famed bassist told an incredible story to The Ringer of two incidents involving the group and the NBA star. The first came when Paul was a member of the Los Angeles Clippers and beating up on Flea's Lakers. The second came during Paul's infamous run-in with R..

Watch Tiger Woods put on a traj clinic while you wait for the Zozo Championship to resume

You gotta feel bad for the Japanese golf fans. After finally getting a PGA Tour event—with Tiger Woods to boot—to come to their country, a typhoon wiped out Friday's action and caused conditions too unsafe for spectators when play resumes on Saturday. But at least they saw Woods put on a show with an opening 64 at the inaugural Zozo Championship that included nine birdies over his final 14 holes. And a lucky few also witnessed the 15-time major champ put on a pre-tournament clinic. As in, an actual clinic.

Tiger turned the Land of the Rising Sun into the Land of the rising ball flight, showing off his incredible ability to control his trajectory. Sorry, make that TRAJ in Tiger terms. Check out this quick clip in which he first hits his patented stinger before taking a second shot high, in both cases drawing loud oohs and aahs from a mesmerized Japanese crowd:

Trae Young literally pulled up from the parking lot and hit shots multiple times on Thursday night

Anyone who has followed Trae Young since his Oklahoma days knows he'll pull up from literally anywhere at any time. As long as the ball is in his hands, he's in range. The problem is, when his shot is off, those bricks from deep seem really silly.
But when he's on? My goodness, is it incredible to watch. Yes, Steph Curry is the best shooter in the NBA until further notice, and his runs are exhilarating, but when Young gets hot it just feels different. Case in point: Young's 38-point night against the Detroit Pistons on Thursday.
What made this performance special was that Young literally pulled up from the parking lot multiple times, and actually hit the shots. Pure insanity:

Here's his 23rd and 26th points of the night, which were kinda lame, standard threes:

Yawn. This next one unfortunately didn't count, as Young chucked it up after th..

Eddie Pepperell’s primary motivation at the Portugal Masters is finding love for Martin Kaymer

Eddie Pepperell isn't a complex man. He's not a starving artist nor an enigma wrapped inside a riddle. He is not an international man of mystery nor a trafficker of life's philosophical highways and bi-ways. Instead he enjoys a hot meal, a good laugh, and, most of all, making his nearest and dearest friends' lives an absolute living nightmare. Just ask Martin Kaymer.
On Friday at the Portugal Masters, Pepperell revealed that his chief motivation this week isn't, in fact, winning a golf tournament, but instead traumatizing his friend on national television per the conditions of a little round two wager. Friends, can't live with 'em, can't kill 'em.

In case you're watching this without volume in the stall at work, Pepperell and Kaymer agreed to a bet stating that if Pepperell beat Kaymer's score on Friday, he would apply for the two-time major champ to appear on First Dates,..
