I’m not normally the kind of guy who advocates that a team prioritize position over player — except when it comes to our Chicago Bulls’ current “brain” “trust” (I don’t remember who first made that joke, probably our guys at BlogABull ) of president Arturas Karnisovas and GM Marc Eversley. It seems like nearly every darn year, they draft a raw, athletic forward. Happily, 2024 first-round pick Matas Buzelis is looking like a true-blue keeper. And I do have to concede that one of the few ti...

The Portland Trail Blazers are in a time of transition, growing out of a rebuild phase, arcing towards contention in a crowded, talented Western Conference. Rebuilding or contending?

BOSTON — Before the Celtics’ win over the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night, head coach Rick Carlisle was asked about what he expected from this year’s Celtics team. And Carlisle, who has been coaching against the Joe Mazzulla Celtics for years, made clear he was far from surprised at the Celtics’ success this season. Before […]
The Knicks are supposed to be in the midst of an easy portion of the schedule.

We are approximately two weeks away from this season’s Feb. 6 trade deadline. The Sixers have been hovering around the middle of the Eastern Conference’s playoff seeds for most of the season’s first half.
