The shot the NBA forgot is changing everything for Jaylen Brown

BOSTON – No NBA player has had more success with the midrange shot than Jaylen Brown has this season.

The Tatsuya Imai rumor mill has yet to really pick up a lot of steam, though that’s perhaps unsurprising given that his posting period lasts into the new year. One thing making the rounds, however, was a translated bit from a Japanese appearance in which Imai discussed joining an MLB team with established stars from Japan: Q.ドジャースのような優勝狙えるチームに行きたいのか?倒しにいくのか? 今井達也 「倒したいですね。(大谷・山本・佐々木選手らと)一緒にプレーするのも、もちろん楽しそうだなと思うんですけど、ああいうチームに勝ってワールドチャンピオンになるのが自分の人生にとって一番価値がある」 #報ステ pic.twitter.com/CFB...

New Podcast Alert, Some Thoughts on Caleb Williams, MNF Musings, and Other Bears Bullets

The Tuesday of Thanksgiving Week always feels like a Thursday. What’s up with that? Even though the NFL Draft isn’t top of mind right now, I am still curious about (1) where the Bears are picking and (2) who they could target. Hence, I am starting to put my eyes on more mock drafts. Chicago’s football team targeting an edge defender makes sense . But it is going to take some time for my mind to get a grasp on the concept of the Bears drafting in the 20s. I didn’t watch Monday N...

Nico Collins unleashed with Davis Mills at helm

No Houston Texans fan will ever say that Davis Mills throwing 40+ passes is the recipe for success, but that’s what was necessary to secure the win over the NFL’s worst 1-9 Tennessee Titans.
