Still waiting on that W. The Brooklyn Nets began their three game homestand with a showdown against the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday night. Brooklyn fought, but once again fell short as the Hawks proved to be too much. Brooklyn is 0-5 on the season. The opponent tonight has gotten off to a darn good start. […]

The New York Knicks (2–3) return to MSG tonight for a rematch with the Chicago Bulls (5–0), eager to avenge Friday’s 135–125 loss in Chicago. The stakes are high.

2-4. That’s the Mavericks’ record after the latest game, a 110-122 loss to the Detroit Pistons in Mexico City. Now that the “Homestand” is done, Dallas sits comfortably close to the bottom of the Western Conference (Thanks New Orleans!) and looks destined to be a lottery-bound team once again. The Mavericks were without most of […]
The time change is helping this morning, because I was up way too late watching that game … There’s just no way around it: that was one of the most incredible Game Sevens in a very long time. Yes, 2016 tops it in my completely biased opinion, but this is right up there just behind it. Some tremendous individual performances. Huge game swings. Close calls. Eye-popping defense in big spots. A game-tying 9th inning home run. Extra innings. And then a game-winner in the 11th: WILL SM...
Over the last two and a half seasons, Josh Hart has been one of the hardest players to accurately judge. He is very good at the things he does well. The rebounding, the one-man fast breaks, and the ability to win loose balls left and right have all been crucial to the Knicks’ success during […]
Charlotte Hornet GM Jeff Peterson was hired in March, 2024 as the executive vice president of basketball operations, he was just 35. Just under eight months later, it looks like a brilliant hire. Charlotte is currently just 2-4, but what’s intriguing is how well Charlotte’s rookies are doing. The Hornets picked up Duke’s Kon Knueppel […]
The Philadelphia 76ers lost their first game of the season Friday night against the Boston Celtics, but you can’t say this team has any quit in them. They almost completed yet another fourth-quarter comeback, having two cracks at a game-winning bucket in the one-point defeat. Now, the Sixers have about as good of a bounceback […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers haven’t had the start to the season many were hoping for. Injuries play a significant role in that being the case. It’s difficult to win games when you’re without a few starters, let alone five of your top eight players, as was the situation against the Toronto Raptors on Friday night. Still, […]

One of the greatest things in sports is when a team clinches a championship. It’s amazing in every team sport because you see the exhilaration and the tension dissolve into joy.

Liverpool entered this match in sore need of a win. 4 straight Premier League losses will create that air of desperation. And given the result mid-week, Arne Slot and the rest of the squad certainly felt waves of pressure. Thankfully, Liverpool were able to earn the W with the kind of play that should inspire […]

When I was in London last time*, back in early April, I had the pleasure of watching Chelsea against Spurs at Stamford Bridge, sat next to some dude who kept singing “Tottenham get battered everywhere they go” pretty much the entire time. Chelsea would of course end up winning, but only just, thanks to an […]

The Rockets managed to take the lead over 30 on several occasions, but ended up winning by only 27 […]
