The buzz around Barclays Center before tipoff wasn’t about a win or a loss, it was about the future. A sellout crowd of 17,548 fans packed into Barclays Center on Friday night as the Brooklyn Nets hosted their first home game of the season, and even before tip-off, the vibe was all about optimism. “I’m […]
Baseball, more than most sports, is a team game. In football, the best quarterbacks can (and often do) win games even when the rest of their team lets them down. In basketball, one shooter can account for half of his team’s score all by himself in a winning effort. But, at least in its modern […]

The Portland Trail Blazers’ bench is completely different when Matisse Thybulle plays. What we saw from him yesterday in the Blazers’ 20-point win over a tired, but still formidable Golden State Warriors team was a masterclass in defensive disruption, and his near-team-high +22 in just 15 minutes didn’t feel aberrational or misleading. On the latest […]

After years of everyone seemingly knowing about the problem other than the Lakers, the team finally admitted they stink in third quarters after their season-opening loss to the Warriors. Even if it was long overdue, seeing them finally address it was at least a step in the right direction. But the team needed to follow […]
To borrow a turn of phrase from my fellow Mavsmoneyball contributor, Bryan Robi – Oooohhweee. The Mavericks derped their way to an embarrassing 107-117 loss to the Washington Wizards in the second game of their six-game homestand. Let that sink in – The Washington Wizards. Now, a lot of people might point to Kyshawn George’s […]
The Portland Trail Blazers might not be the only ones in for a major change in the wake of the betting scandal that rocked the NBA on Thursday. The Blazers lost their head coach, Chauncey Billups, to an indefinite league suspension after he was arrested for allegedly helping organized crime members rig poker games. According […]
The Portland Trail Blazers traded seven-year veteran Anfernee Simons to the Boston Celtics last summer, saying goodbye to a player they drafted and nurtured through an entire era of the franchise. So far the 6’3 guard has gotten off to a rocky start, averaging 11.5 points in 29.5 minutes per game, shooting 30% from the […]
The Portland Trail Blazers have had the microscope locked on them for the past 48 hours. The allegations surrounding suspended Head Coach Chauncey Billups have come as a shock, not only to the people watching from afar but surely to the players and coaches he worked with every day. My heart truly goes out to […]
The Portland Trail Blazers have been through a whirlwind first week of their 2025-26 season. They lost a narrow, fast-paced game to the heavily-favored Minnesota Timberwolves. The won in a blowout against the mildly-favored Golden State Warriors. Oh, and they replaced an entire head coach after a gambling scandal as big as anything that has […]
expected to draw two-way interest around the league While the G League draft is rarely cause for note, the Lakers made a very interesting move in Saturday’s. Holding the No. 1 pick after a trade, the Lakers selected former Thunder wing Dillon Jones. Oklahoma City drafted Jones in the 2024 draft with the No. 26 […]
Every once in a while, Saturday’s BN Bears Bullets get posted *AFTER* the lunching hour. My apologies for the tardiness, but when you’ve got breaking news like Lamar Jackson not starting for the Ravens and Kyler Gordon going on injured reserve , those things take priority. Once I’m done here, maybe I’ll allow myself to have breakfast. Something stinks about that Lamar Jackson situation. To go from a full participant and questionable to play on Sunday when Friday’s injury report post wen...
