The NBA Cup allows teams to experience playoff-level intensity early in the season and the Spurs rose to the occasion tonight against the Nuggets in Denver.

Almost 3 years removed from winning the title, the Denver Nuggets have continued to stay in the championship mix, due in large part to the basketball wizardry that is Nikola Jokic. After 7-game losses in the Western Conference Semifinals each of the last two seasons, a slight shake-up was in order, moving off the massive […]

For the second time in four games, the Last Two Minute Report proved to be the Chicago Bulls’ friend.
In the team’s closely contested 130-127 win over the Denver Nuggets, the officials missed a potentially pivotal defensive three-second call on Kevin Huerter in the final minute. If called correctly, the Nuggets would have shot a technical free throw and received the ball down 126-122.
Fast forward to Saturday night’s win over the Washington Wizards, and the stakes were even higher. T...

The Chicago Bulls just had one of the most frustrating winning weeks I can remember.
Beat a Denver Nuggets team that was 10-2 and second in the West. Blow a 21-point lead to the banged-up Trail Blazers in 9 minutes before hitting a game-winning buzzer-beater. Get slapped in the face by the Miami Heat for the zillionth time. Narrowly avoid becoming the Washington Wizards’ second win of the 2025-26 season.
Somehow, someway, the Bulls went 3-1 over these four games and sit at 9-7. Nothi...

The sky is falling! Sound the alarm! Catastrophize! Dear God, why isn’t anybody catastrophizing? That’s the vibe on Rockets X. The Rockets lost by three points to the Denver Nuggets. So the logical conclusion is that the entire season is wasted. That’s obviously absurd. Rockets fans should leave that for Stephen A. Smith and other […]

The Rockets are now 10-4, having lost to Denver in their third NBA Cup game. This probably will keep them from advancing in Group C, the Group of Death in the Western Conference. Since nearly everyone professes not to care about The NBA Cup, I’ll just say it’s better to win things than lose them, […]
