Microwave. Bucket-getter. Flamethrower. These are all words that have been used to describe Jordan Clarkson. Inconsistent. Ball-stopper. Erratic. Turnstile. These are also all words that have been used to describe the shooting guard. And there’s a lot of truth to all of them. Through Clarkson’s 12 seasons in the NBA, the former Missouri Tiger has […]

Toumani Camara was one of the pleasant surprises of the 2024-25 season for the Portland Trail Blazers. Rising from obscurity out of the flurry of trades surrounding Damian Lillard, Camara assumed a position in Portland’s starting lineup and in the hearts of Blazers fans. His hard-working, blue-collar approach to the game (along with his improbable […]

I am fortunate enough to have attended some of the greatest sporting events in Philadelphia’s history, from Game 5 of the 2008 World Series to the 2017 NFC Championship Game. Those are iconic for what they meant to the city’s sports landscape, but the downright coolest game I ever attended is a little less known. […]

They picked up their lone win over the Cleveland Cavaliers and fell to the Toronto Raptors, Detroit Pistons and Memphis Grizzlies.

Frank Nazar is on the struggle bus right now for the Chicago Blackhawks. He hasn’t scored a goal since Oct. 28 — a stretch of 17 games. And some fans have extrapolated from his goal scoring woes that he isn’t playing well in other areas of the game.
Since he returned from the injury he suffered in Calgary, Nazar has nine assists in 12 games; he has assists in eight of the 12 games. He’s put 23 shots on net over that span, but none of them have found the back of the net.
Do the Blackh...

I didn’t catch the Bulls game last night as I was boots on the ground at Lambeau Field watching the Bears come up frustratingly short of pulling off an upset. And, well, I’m glad I didn’t. Another game down, and another ugly loss in the books for Billy Donovan’s crew.
Bulls Bullets
Yet again last night, the Bulls were plagued by turnovers. Josh Giddey and Coby White each had four, which accounted for over half of the team’s 15 giveaways. The Bulls average 15.1 turnovers per game, w...

The last few months of the Giannis Antetokounmpo saga in Milwaukee have played out like a girl picking a flower, wondering whether her crush loves her or not. It’s been the worst-kept secret in the NBA. One of the best players in basketball has been the victim of poor roster construction around him for the […]

It’s clear the Sixers are not built for The Cup … and it’s the best thing for them. With the knockout stage of the Emirates NBA Cup set to start, the teams that didn’t qualify will get a nice break from the rigors of an 82-game schedule. The Sixers will have four days off before […]

Another good win for the Celtics. And yet another fanbase that trashes just about everyone on their own team. Good to see all the love for White, Walsh, Queta, Brown and Pritchard though. Also a lot of love for Joe Mazzulla and Brad Stevens. The comment about winning and losing habits was so true. That's why tanking bothers me. The comment about a black hole being historically dominant on defense gave me a chuckle. My favorites are in bold...

It finally happened. In his fifth game with the Seattle Seahawks, Rashid Shaheed had a sizable impact on the game from start to finish. He was active in the passing game, he continues to have an effect on the run game, and then of course the play that everyone will remember. Coming out of halftime, […]

I’ll be honest, at halftime with the Seattle Seahawks playing to a 6-6 tie with the Atlanta Falcons, I was becoming a little concerned with Seattle’s offense. At that point, their production in the last seven quarters had been one Zach Charbonnet touchdown and a whole mess of field goals. Seattle’s defense produced just as […]

#1 – Queta generated 19 points through screens Neemias Queta might be the best screener in the NBA at the moment. At least, looking at this chart, he is the player with the most points via screen assists relative to his playing time. Last night, he helped the Celtics score 19 points with his screens, […]

One week ago, the Blackhawks came back from a three-goal deficit to blow the doors off the Anaheim Ducks in Chicago. The game was chippy. The two teams were chirping each other the entire 60 minutes. And the Blackhawks let them know what the final score was as they left the ice.
One week later, Joel Quenneville may have dusted off his Michael Jordan “and I took that personally” meme collection and got his team ready to play. The Blackhawks didn’t get off the bus, and the Ducks didn’t take...

The Washington Commanders were blanked by the Minnesota Vikings 31-0. Their 31-point shutout loss is by far their worst loss of the season, and it comes at a time when Washington exuded so much optimism after a close loss to the then 9-2 Denver Broncos. Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel looked electric at times, Zach […]
