Well, that was disappointing. After going on a fun three-game win streak to close out 2025 and begin the new year — picking up wins against the Grizzlies, third-place Knicks, and Cooper Flagg’s Mavs — the Sixers completely fumbled the game they should have won. On Monday, they somehow lost to a hospital Nuggets squad […]

The 2025-2026 Boston Celtics are exceeding even the most optimistic expectations.

A few years ago, we saw a post saying that only (maybe) four players had ever blocked Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s Sky Hook, but we keep finding other guys who did it.

When we’re young and we do poorly on a math test, we start to believe that we’re “bad at math.” We beat ourselves up, wonder why we’re lagging compared to our peers and internalize comments that seem harmless to others but eat at us inside. As we get older, we go to a lower-level class, […]

There’s been plenty of conversation (as usual) around what’s happening in Laker Town. That discussion has revolved around, but certainly has not been limited to, the fit between two ball-dominant stars in Luka Doncic and LeBron James. Even with the fit not being perfect though, and with the 41 year old James looking mortal at […]
