They aren’t easily definable, and you certainly can’t search for them in a box score. But every hoop-head knows them. Feels them as they happen. In their core. They are visceral—the catalysts for pandemonium; ushers of the choral groan. Momentum moments. It’s not hyperbole to say that games are decided by these. Or is it? Here’s how […]

Giannis’ 16-foot fadeaway at the buzzer has the Bucks at 5-2 on the young season with a 117-115 win over the Pacers. It certainly wasn’t a sterling effort with some glaring free-throw shooting, turnover, and defense rebounding issues, but the Bucks are the sixth team to five wins.
