The talk of this week and probably the whole season is obviously the trade between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks that included multiple time All Stars Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis. To say that it was a shocker is quite an understatement as the GMs of the two teams did not communicate […]

Throughout the years in the NBA we have seen a lot of weird injuries, both on and off the court. However, I would have been very curious to see what the injury report would have been in the following case with Rudy Gobert in this week’s game with the Hawks. When you look at it […]

Let’s hop right to it. Lakers: I’ve avoided writing about this team because, frankly, they’re boring and as a long time JJ Redick fan it makes me sad. LeBron James is showing some signs of age.

We are now officially entering the final hours of the NBA preseason. In just a few days we’ll be watching real games, counting real stats, and likely overreacting to real performances. That is to be expected when weeks of anticipation meet lofty predictions and unrealistic expectations. After posting articles with my Big Leap Candidates and […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Every season, fantasy managers enter their respective drafts largely focused on the very top. They enter their draft rooms, real or virtual, hoping to land the top pick. They argue both internally and with other league members who they think should go first, second, third, etc. They learn their draft position and rejoice or complain […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Partook in a mock draft last night. Well, honestly, I didn’t. I’m in the area that’s affected by that tropical storm in the Carolinas and the internet wasn’t working. When the email finally came through saying “Thanks for participating” I laughed and laughed. This team is completely the opposite of what I would have done! […]
