The Jazz flew into Sacramento fresh off a tune-up exhibition game against a local senior center decisive win over the Los Angeles Clippers, ready to test themselves against the Sacramento Kings, another California team with an eclectic assortment of players.

A decade ago, I was writing for Liberty Ballers as an idealistic college student who knew in his heart of hearts that the Sixers would be a championship team quite soon. Well, a decade later, I am a grouch in his 30s, writing here once again, and the Sixers still have not advanced beyond the […]
