No Wemby, no problem. The Spurs won their third game in four nights and 11th straight Thursday night in an up and down game against the Clippers, keeping the #1 seed within reach while giving the Alien a night off. It was a high-scoring game from the tip. Kawhi continued his magnificent season and scored […]
The biggest gut punch from Thursday’s loss to the Thunder was Luka Dončić‘s hamstring strain, but he wasn’t the only star with a visible injury in the game. Prior to Luka going down, Austin Reaves was the one who made a trip to the locker room. Reaves was holding his back for much of the […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers pulled out a win against the Golden State Warriors. Let’s go over today’s winners and losers. WINNER AND LOSER – Defense On one hand, the Cavs played to their strengths by packing the paint and daring Golden State to shoot from downtown.

Stephon Castle’s heady leadership and playmaking, interspersed with highlight plays from De’Aaron Fox, Keldon Johnson, and Dylan Harper, turbocharged a decisive 21-5 ambush in the fourth quarter to thwart a Clippers comeback. Without the services of MVP and DPOY candidate Victor Wembanyama, San Antonio (59-18) weathered a good first half by Kawhi Leonard to hold […]
The Portland Trail Blazers did what they needed to do on Tuesday night, vanquishing the New Orleans Pelicans 118-106 at Portland’s Moda Center. The victory ended up looking far more decisive than the action was. New Orleans remained within shouting distance of the victory until the final moments. But the win counts the same in […]
Instead of talking solely about tonight’s opponent the Utah Jazz, I’m going to use this opportunity to talk about the teams in the lottery and discuss which team would win if the NBA rigged it and had their way. We’ll go in reverse order of standings from the day this is written (April 2). 13. […]
This game was over once the ball went up. The Thunder showed the Lakers why they are 10 games behind the defending champs. They suffocated them defensively as the Lakers didn’t make a field goal until the 7:07 mark in the first quarter. OKC jumped in front by as many as 23 in the opening […]
It wasn’t pretty, but the Cleveland Cavaliers were able to execute well enough late to defeat an undermanned Golden State Warriors team 118-111 to cap off their three-game road trip. This was a messy game for both sides. The Warriors were playing without several star players, including Steph Curry, and were also on the second […]
The Portland Trail Blazers are in the thick of a tight race for standing in the Western Conference Play-In Tournament this week.

On a night where everything that could go wrong did for the Lakers, the biggest blow did not come on the scoreboard. In the third quarter of Thursday’s demoralizing loss to the Thunder, Luka Dončić came to a stop for a jumper and immediately grabbed the back of his left leg. He lost the ball […]
The return of Jayson Tatum was much anticipated. We are just about a month into it and it could not have possibly gone any better than it has. Tatum went through a short shooting slump, but he is starting to find his shot and is a positive in every other aspect of the game. In […]
The Lakers were bludgeoned from the opening tip of Thursday’s showdown with the Thunder, falling behind by double digits minutes into the game and trailing by as many as 45 en route to a 139-96 loss. Turnovers plagued the Lakers from the jump, allowing OKC to jump ahead early. The Thunder shooting an incredible 53.9% […]
One of the crazier rule changes the NBA has made in recent years was the 65-game minimum for players to qualify for awards. It’s led to some truly wonky results like a whole host of the league’s top defenders being ineligible for Defensive Player of the Year and plenty of deserving players missing out on […]
The Portland Trail Blazers are facing the New Orleans Pelicans at the Moda Center tonight. If the Blazers don’t win this one, their hard-fought victory against the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday won’t matter anymore. It’s win or give up on the 8th seed in the Western Conference Play-In Tournament. Winning seems like a decent […]
Collin Gilllespie spent years knocking down three’s within Villanova’s offense and that has translated into the NBA. On Thursday night, Gillespie knocked down two three-pointers to get to 227 on the year for the Phoenix Suns. This set a new franchise record for three’s made in a single-season, passing the previous mark of 226 set […]
One of the few things that hasn’t gone right for the Lakers during their recent winning run has been Marcus Smart’s injury.

The Minnesota Timberwolves crushed the Dallas Mavericks in Anthony Edwards’ return and behind Ayo Dosunmu’s impressive triple-double.

With this missed game, Ant will not be eligible […]
