The Houston Rockets have been one of the league’s top-ranked offenses all season. Quite the surprise for an Ime Udoka-led group, which is generally carried by defensive execution.

(Small brag because I suggested a Furlong trade last week .) The picks are so far in the future, they’re inconsequential at this point for either team, so we’ll focus o...

The Houston Rockets utilize a […]
Over the Cap has just dropped their cap casualty rankings for the upcoming offseason, which includes four Green Bay Packers in their top 100 players. Only three teams have more plays on the list than the Packers: the Arizona Cardinals (nine), the Minnesota Vikings (seven) and the Washington Commanders (seven). Personally, I only think that […]
If I’m being honest, I didn’t really want to be at a basketball game tonight. On Wednesday, Renee Nicole Good, a wife and mother of three, was killed in Minneapolis by an agent of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). I will not be sharing the video here, but it is not hard to find. […]
