Just a few weeks back, Anfernee Simons’ fit felt clunky. His efficiency was solid, but it hadn’t translated into consistently impactful minutes. Lately, he’s begun to settle into a clearer niche, and the Celtics’ offense is humming. The issue wasn’t Simons’ ability to score, but the process was off and in some ways his style […]

The Portland Trail Blazers’ five-game winning streak ended at the hands of the New York Knicks on Sunday evening at the Moda Center.

It had everything. Fans standing at the beginning of the game for so long that their feet started to ache, a 19-point deficit, a head coach out sick, and perhaps the loudest crowd pop of the season that rivaled the Oklahoma City Thunder game when the final buzzer sounded and Anthony Edwards threw the ball […]
The Utah Jazz are coming off one of the worst losses in team history and are falling in the standings towards a good spot in the lottery. But they’re not the only team doing the same thing, and they’re not the only team with protections on their pick that make things precarious. Just like Utah, […]

The Hawks and Warriors linked up in San Francisco with Atlanta looking to pick up their third straight win.

Darko Rajakovic and I have differing opinions on the idea of playing a team back-to-back. Rajakovic, as he told the media before Sunday’s Toronto Raptors game, loves the idea of it.
