The Celtics are surprising the world yet again and […]

There’s something about the number 11. I was born on the 11th. I grew up with the German soccer novel “11 Freunde müsst ihr sein”. Later came “11 Freunde”, a wonderful monthly magazine about soccer culture. But if I’m being honest, my favorite association with the number 11 has nothing to do with soccer at […]

Victor Wembanyama steps out of the visitors’ locker room, hunches through the tunnel, and Barclays Center greets him with a shriek. A mass circles the east end of the court as the Alien starts to warm up. Rarely is a nickname — bland it may be — this fitting. Wemby clutches a basketball, balancing on […]
You know the Spurs have reached a new level from even a month ago when they can look tired and a step slow, and still blow out a bad team (remember, playing down to opponents used to be a thing of theirs). After a hard-fought, exhausting win in Toronto the night before, the Spurs avoided […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-36) are home for the first time in a month and on Thursday night they host the Sacramento Kings (13-47).

It’s been said that hindsight is 20/20. Is it? It likely depends on how far removed you are from what you’re trying to see. The past is a vacuous concept. Anything you do is in the past a milesecond later. Perhaps it’s most accurate to say that hindsight will eventually be 20/20. Is it time […]

With […]

When the Dallas Mavericks play, it is guaranteed to be a close game, regardless of the hectic travel conditions the Mavericks faced. While tanking is the preffered strategy going forward, the Mavericks will still win games against the truly bad teams, such as the Nets. Unless they decide to fully commit to resting and benching […]

The Nets lost to Michael Porter Jr.’s 26. The Mavericks closed the first quarter up 36–29, fueled by Naji Marshall’s downhill scoring and Daniel Gafford’s interior finishes, while […]
The Dallas Mavericks defeated (21-36) the Brooklyn Nets 123-114 at Barclays Center on Tuesday, nabbing just their seventh road win of the season.

The snow piled up quickly in NYC, the sidewalks are slick, and the Nets are finally back in their own building following a four-game losing streak — dating back to Feb. 11.

The Dallas Mavericks (20-36) visit the Brooklyn Nets (15-41) to participate in a Tuesday evening basketball contest for the ages. Or not. We’ll see. Dallas finally won a game after losing 10 straight, beating the shameless Indiana Pacers. Brooklyn is no better though; they’ve lost four straight and are really not good at basketball. In […]
Within the Nets’ organization, player development is a priority. When you’re rebuilding, it has to be. That’s a given. But it’s not just about the obvious development track. Whether a rookie or veteran enters the building, growth is prioritized — especially from within. While the focus is rightly on the Flatbush Five, the Long Island […]
