For me, writing can be a solitary thing. As I write this, it’s 10:03 p.m. Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals just ended. I am sitting on the couch. This season, I have been fortunate to be credentialed, affording me an opportunity to not only attend the games in person, but to observe many […]
Even with injuries to key players, the San Antonio Spurs have to feel good about themselves coming into tonight’s Game 3. They were able to steal Game 1 from the defending champs, a double OT classic that saw the Spurs eventually out-execute the Thunder down the stretch, and were tantalizingly close to coming back home […]

We’re deep into the NBA playoffs, and one former Husky hooper is still playing meaningful basketball. Stephon Castle and the San Antonio Spurs are in the Western Conference Finals for the first time since 2017. Castle has been the number-two option behind the breakout megastar Victor Wembanyama. Castle is doing a little bit of everything […]
After exiting Game 2 early in the second half following an awkward fall, Spurs rookie guard Dylan Harper is listed as questionable for Game 3 in San Antonio with a sore adductor. The play occurred when he collided with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander while going for a lay-up and came down awkwardly on his leg. While obviously […]
Globe Isaiah Thomas hopes ‘second act’ with Celtics will help him become a GM ‘Some days the 3-point shooting gets a little much’: Kevin McHale on watching the Celtics this season Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scores 30, Thunder top Spurs in Game 2 of Western Conference finals Maine’s Cooper Flagg among three unanimous first-team selections for the […]
Coming off a dramatic double overtime win in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals, the Spurs looked to take a commanding 2-0 lead in the series in Oklahoma City on Wednesday night. De’Aaron Fox missed his second straight game with a high ankle sprain, so the Spurs were once again without one of their […]
The serious basketball heads I know are ecstatic. The NBA Conference Finals have delivered three thrillers so far. Last night in the West, SGA and the Thunder tied their series with another slugfest against Wemby and the Spurs. On Tuesday, throughout most of their Game One, the Knicks looked rusty while the Cavaliers rode the […]
Arguably the biggest story in sports in recent days came in the NBA. On Monday night, the San Antonio Spurs beat the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. A large reason — literally and figuratively — for the victory was San Antonio’s star Victor Wembanyama. The man known “Wemby” scored […]
Honestly, the fact that San Antonio lost ranks fourth or fifth on my list of most troubling facts about last night’s game. By far the most serious issue is Dylan Harper’s injury, as he has been absolutely essential in this playoff run and clearly the second-best Spur in the series so far. The second most […]
The Oklahoma City Thunder evened the Western Conference Finals Wednesday evening with a 122-113 win. The series is now tied 1-1 Jared McCain came off the bench to score 12 points, hitting 4-14 overall and 3-9 from behind the three-point line. Mason Plumlee did not get off the bench for San Antonio. Victor Wembanya continues […]
The Spurs stole home court advantage in game 1, but had no delusions of taking game 2 without a fight. Oklahoma City reset and were able to recreate the kind of game that kept them at the top of the Western Conference all season. De’Aaron Fox did not suit up for the second straight game […]
The next Steph Curry. The next Steve Nash. The next Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf…the next Brent Price. The first Reed Sheppard – existentially speaking. He is not a Kevin O’Connor comparison – He is a solitary unit. But what is he? It seems like Rafael Stone has some lofty expectations. Rumors suggest that he sees Sheppard as […]
The Spurs will have to settle for a split after two games in Oklahoma City. Despite doing a good job of keeping the game close and giving themselves a chance to win, fatigue and an injury to Dylan Harper that depleted their depth even more were too much to overcome against an opponent that found […]
The Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs have sent a shockwave around the rest of the NBA. They’re (hundreds of) miles away from the majority of the pack, including the Miami Heat. Miami has done a poor job managing and accumulating assets over the last several years, leaving itself little breathing room for star […]

The Western Conference Finals are at a stalemate thanks to chronic turnovers by the San Antonio Spurs. On top of that, Chet Holmgren finally showed up to the series, and OKC’s bench scored an abundance of relief points, which included Alex Caruso shooting like prime Klay Thompson. The series will now shift to San Antonio. The […]
No surprise here, the Sixers’ rookie is getting recognized for his stellar inaugural season as a pro.

The Spurs won’t have a third consecutive Rookie of the Year, as the Mavericks’ Cooper Flagg claimed that honor, but that doesn’t mean Dylan Harper’s excellent play will go unrecognized. The second overall pick of the 2025 draft got a spot in the All-Rookie First Team, the league announced. Harper received 93 first-place votes and […]
