Karma. Juju. Vibes. This stuff matters. It’s hard to put a finger on it, but you know it matters. It’s got to feel right. If it feels wrong, follow that intuition. There are machinations at play that we don’t understand. Whatever your cosmic alignment, you’re naive to assume that cold, hard logic dictates everything. Kyrie […]

The Washington Wizards were launched into space and did not survive on Wednesday against the Houston Rockets in a 135-112 contest at Toyota Center.

This past offseason, forward Dorian Finney-Smith agreed to a four-year, $53 million contract with the Houston Rockets. The first two seasons of the contract are completely guaranteed; the third and fourth years are not, and there is a player option in the fourth year. The addition of a valuable three-and-D wing to the Rockets’ lineup […]
Reed Sheppard is starting to reverse the all-too-early concocted narrative on him as an NBA player. It’s still early in the season (and his NBA career) but we can’t ignore what he’s been doing of late, and what’s been said about him. He was written off long ago. Dating back to his rookie season, we’ve […]
ORLANDO — Normally, when Jordan Walsh plays the entire fourth quarter, it means the game is out of reach. Just a week ago, in a blowout Celtics loss to the Houston Rockets, Walsh played all 12 fourth-quarter minutes, running around and getting up shots against the Rockets’ two-way players. But this time, Walsh’s fourth-quarter minutes […]
After an embarrassing loss to the Spurs in their first NBA Cup game, the Rockets needed to cleanse their pallet and get back to doing the things that help them win ball games. Early on against the Bucks it didn’t look like that was going to happen. The Rockets have struggled at times to defend […]

Coming off a hard-fought victory versus the Houston Rockets, the Spurs took on the New Orleans Pelicans in a SEGABABA. The Pelicans had six key players on their injury report, and De’Aaron Fox finally returned from injury. With that being said, it sounds like an incoming blowout, right? Guess again. Except for a key run […]
Mass amnesia is a hypothetical phenomenon that doesn’t have a real-world example: Unless we’ve all forgotten about something, that is. That said, some circumstances can feel like a case of mass amnesia. You don’t have to look further than NBA X. Every year, the majority of its users seem to forget that you need a […]
The Milwaukee Bucks will take offense from the Houston Rockets in a Sunday matinee game. We’ll see whether their scoring remains scorching as the hosts and the Fiserv Forum begin their descend into wintertime. Where We’re At A win against the Chicago Bulls provided welcome respite after an iffy stretch of play from the Boys […]
It’s been years since I’ve been to an actual theater — many years. Maybe that’s because some of my visits didn’t exactly turn out to be great successes. I remember one in particular, back in 2008. I was working in London at the time as an intern for a major company. My duties included corporate […]
Coming off a tough loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday, the Spurs looked to regroup heading into the start of NBA Cup group play. Their first Cup match of the season was at home versus the Houston Rockets. After a struggling 22 minutes of Spurs basketball (marred by poor shooting and lazy turnovers), […]
The Rockets showed up to Friday night’s game with the San Antonio Spurs, but they barely played two quarters of actual basketball. Houston was crusing along in the second quarter up 11 points when the bottom fell out and the Rockets gave up a 12-0 an ugly run to end the second to go into […]
Last night the Spurs played their first Emirates Cup game against the I-10 rival Houston Rockets. I was taken aback when I saw the game was on Amazon Prime, part of an 11-year contract. I was nervous that the games were only available live. I was pleased to be able to watch the game when […]
After a couple of tough losses, Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs needed to show they could adjust and overcome adversity to silence the doubters. Both the star and the team were up for the task against a Rockets team that gave them all they could handle. The hard-fought 121-110 win got San Antonio back on […]
The Spurs prevailed tonight by doing something that you haven’t seen from the Silver and Black for the last couple of years. They performed well under pressure and executed better than their opponent down the stretch. The Spurs played with discipline to overcome a talented Rockets team that fought hard the whole game. Alperen Sengun […]
