Sure, they’ve had some frustrating losses get away from them, but halfway through the season, the Sixers are in as good a spot as any optimist could have hoped for before the season. At 23-19, they have set themselves up to not just make the playoffs, but potentially nab a top-six spot to avoid the […]
If any game — really, any half — exemplifies the season that UNC Wilmington has been having, it’d probably be Jan. 10’s second half against Stony Brook. Shorthanded, and on the second leg of a due-north road trip, the Seahawks headed into the locker room for halftime trailing 43-21 against one of the CAA’s worst […]
The Seattle Seahawks traded for Rashid Shaheed, presumably, to help make the passing game more explosive. That hasn’t quite materialized yet, and ideally he’s extended soon so we can see him with a full offseason more integrated as a wide receiver. In the meantime, Shaheed has made the once nightmarish Seahawks kick and punt return […]

Tonight’s Thunder vs. Bucks showdown at the Fiserv Forum features a cross-conference clash between the NBA’s gold standard and a Milwaukee squad fighting to stay in the postseason conversation. The Oklahoma City Thunder are once again the most dominant force in the league, sitting atop the Western Conference at a staggering 36-8. Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Bucks (18-24) are looking to defend home court and prove they can still punch up against the league’s elite.
With both sides featuri...
The Knicks (25*-18) assemble on their home court again, desperate to avoid a season-worst, fifth-straight loss. They couldn’t ask for a better opponent to right the ship. The Brooklyn Nets (12-29), mired in a rebuild season, limp into the Garden having lost seven of their last eight games. The Knicks’ four-game skid (as well as […]
Wow, wow, wow. Yes, the Los Angeles Clippers were shorthanded, but it sure didn’t look like the Chicago Bulls had any trouble taking care of business last night. They played a beautiful brand of basketball, and did it in front of QB1 and PCA, no less. Honestly, what more could you ask for?
With another win in the books, the Bulls are somehow inching closer to a real playoff spot. Not the fake, awkward play-in territory, a legitimate playoff position. And with the trade deadline approachin...

Austin Reaves’ career season will ultimately go unrewarded. As a result of his calf strain, which has had him out since Christmas Day and cost him three games before that, Reaves can now not meet the 65-game minimum, making him ineligible for any awards or All-NBA consideration. The NBA’s 65-game minimum for award eligibility is […]
If you haven’t had a good groan recently, prepare yourselves. On Wednesday, Baxter Holmes of ESPN published an extensive post on the Buss family and the drama surrounding them. The piece has many details about the recent sale and the crumbling relationship between the siblings. Included in that were questions from the Buss family, namely […]
As we bask in the warm afterglow of that huge Seattle Seahawks Divisional Round win, we must ask ourselves: is John Schneider the most underrated figure in the history of the Seahawks organization? Let’s take a look at an executive who has stood the test of time in a league with tons of eyeballs and […]
Nothing doing. The Brooklyn Nets returned home to face a revitalized Phoenix Suns team on Monday night. Brooklyn battled, but the Suns were too much to handle. The L was their second in a row and dropped the Nets to 2-9 in January. The opponent tonight… boy I don’t know. The New York Knicks walked […]
The Letter 2.0 made it official, the standings made it undeniable, and this Ten Game Temp Check shows just how broken things have become.
It was a tale of two halves yet again for the San Antonio Spurs in their 111-106 loss to the Houston Rockets. The Spurs were red hot in the first half, scoring 70 points, but lost steam quickly in the second half as they finished the game shooting 39% from the field and 28% from […]
Did you think we were trying to dodge the bullet of covering the ugliest defeat in Knicks’ history here in the Bulletin? Not really. I was just inside on a 13-hour transatlantic flight and could barely do enough to keep breathing all throughout Tuesday. Here’s a whole lot of excuses and promises from your New […]

The Milwaukee Bucks try to start another of those pesky winning streaks tonight in Fiserv against the Oklahoma City Thunder. As we’ve all been patiently waiting for, it’s NBA Rivals Week, so who better for the Bucks to lock horns with than the Pacers, Celtics, Heat, Suns Thunder! Of course, this extremely bitter rivalry was […]
Points for Miller and Mika, pain for Jonathan Quick, kids getting minutes, and the Rangers inching closer to the bottom—call it all bad, which is good (for now).
The assumption has been since the Blackhawks won the right to select Connor Bedard in the draft lottery that he is the heir to the captaincy in Chicago. In our bullets yesterday I shared a comment from Jonathan Toews when he was asked about Bedard’s maturation and growth as the face of the Blackhawks.
So this really good read from Scott Powers and Mark Lazerus at The Athletic about the future of the Blackhawks’ captaincy resonates. This quote from Nick Foligno is very on-brand for Foligno...

How many times does a team need to learn the same lesson before it’s legitimately recitified? The San Antonio Spurs blew another double-digit lead on Tuesday night in a 111-106 loss to the Houston Rockets. This time, it was a 16-point lead that disappeared halfway through the fourth quarter after a big run from the […]
The Dallas Mavericks’ rookie star and number one overall pick Cooper Flagg just played the 41st game of his young career on Monday against the New York Knicks.
