This week, the NBA began an investigation into Toronto Raptors backup big man, Jontay Porter, following peculiar rises in action on prop bets where people were suddenly rushing to bet the under for a guy who’s barely able to hang onto an NBA roster. Toronto Raptors center Jontay Porter is out of the lineup and […]
From 2018-2021. Ben Simmons was one of the best defenders in the NBA who would force guys into terrible shots, grab those rebounds, push the pace down the court, and use his natural court vision to find open shooters, racking up assists. Despite being a triple-double machine capable of guarding strong wings as well as […]
Thanks to the NBA installing a new rule this season, creating a strict 65-game minimum in order to qualify for end-of-season awards, Cleveland Cavaliers star, Donovan Mitchell no longer has the opportunity to make an All-NBA team. Here is the list of top guys, like Donovan, who also won’t be able to take home a […]
In 2020, the Detroit Pistons hired Troy Weaver as their GM. Since then, the Pistons have a 70-229 record, the worst record among any NBA team during these 4 years. This season, Detroit suffered a 28-game losing streak, a new NBA record. It’s not a hot take to declare Troy Weaver sucks at his job. […]
The Houston Rockets were attempting to make a late-season push for the 10th seed and a chance to sneak into the playoffs through the play-in game. Those dreams may have come to an end on Sunday after losing their star center, Alperen Sengun, in a brutal accident leaving his leg in shambles. Prayers up to […]
We’re at the last leg of the 2023=24 NBA season. Teams are playing for real now. No one’s breaking scoring records anymore. Every night is warfare. I love this point in the season where the NFL is over and the NBA televises games all weekend long. You learn everything you need to know about these […]
I’ve reached an age where I am quickly realizing I am no longer a young man. My hangovers last an extra 24 hours. I refuse to get a haircut in fear it will never grow back. If I yawn too hard, I may need an ambulance. Which is why I was hyped as hell to […]
The New York Knicks are currently 35-25 and desperately holding onto the 4th seed in the East despite their entire roster struggling to stay on the court. But as they limp to the playoffs, impatiently waiting for everyone’s injuries to heal, they add Shake Milton to the squad for some guard depth. ESPN Sources: Shake […]
Sometimes, an NBA team will take a big swing and try to pair up stars in hopes their talent will win out in the end only to find out chemistry and compatibility and personality all matter. There are plenty of NBA duos who have come together recently and worked out like the Kings bringing in […]
It’s not easy out there for a Lester. It’s not a name that screams toughness. It’s the name you see stiched onto your mechanic who looks like he was born under the hood of a Ford truck and bathes in a tub of motor oil. Or it’s the name of your strange, racist country uncle […]
In 2021, the Chicago Bears drafted Justin Fields with the no. 11 overall pick. 3 seasons later, the Bears find themselves with the first pick and the opportunity to draft a quarterback who can lead them to a better record than Fields’s 10-28 record as a starter. Caleb Williams could be the next great Hall […]
Last offseason, the Philadelphia 76ers fired Doc Rivers, not for losing to a better team in the Boston Celtics but for blowing a 3-2 lead and the team looking like they could not wait to go home in Game 7. Rivers was then hired at ESPN and it felt like the Rivers head coach nonsense […]
The 2024 NBA All-Star Weekend was very cool for those who live in Indianapolis and haven’t had an important sports event in their city since the 2012 WNBA Finals when Tamika Catchings led the Indiana Fever over the STACKED Minnesota Lynx. Shout out Lindsay Whalen. But with every major event, there are winners and there […]
2024 NBA All-Star Saturday was lit and by lit I mean the court was literally lit up with LED lights which worked to trick my lizard brain into paying attention to the big shiny lights instead of the trillions of more fun activities I could’ve been doing. But I watched the whole event and I […]
At the All-Star break, the Boston Celtics are 43-12 with the best record in the NBA. They’ve been the best team all season long and led by their All-Star forward, Jayson Tatum who is averaging 27.1 points, 8.6 rebounds, and 4.8 assists with a 55% eFG% and playing some of the best defense in the […]
On December 30th, 2023, the New York Knicks traded their two former first-round draft picks, RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley, for OG Anunoby. They proceeded to win 16 of 18 games with Anunoby instantly becoming a prison sentence for what opposing player he was tasked with defending. They surged to the top of the Eastern […]
