Once again, the Wizards offered little resistance on defense. A couple nights ago the Philadelphia 76ers scored 153 in regulation over the little defense the Wizards offered. As the game today evolved the only interesting question seemed to be whether the Heat will break that threshold or not. At halftime, the Miami Heat were right […]

That gap between local agenda and global […]

The haymakers are coming left and right for the Lakers right now. Luka Doncic’s hamstring injury took center stage from Thursday’s loss to the Thunder, but Austin Reaves was also injured and it’s much worse than he initially indicated after the game.

The Chicago Blackhawks continue their road trip out west with a stop against the Seattle Kraken on Saturday. The Kraken sit four points out of the second wild card spot with 75 points. Four teams stand between Seattle and the San Jose Sharks and, boy, Seattle isn’t quite the analytics darling. The Kraken sit in 31st in 5-on-5 shot attempt share (one spot below Chicago) and 31st in 5-on-5 expected goals share (one spot above Chicago). Add on their minus-25 goal differential, and it’s all m...

When looking forward to the draft it is hard to tell which direction (i.e., position the Vikings will take at 18). The consensus is Safety Dillon Thieneman which would be an excellent pick for sure. I am just not there yet. We still do not know if Harrison Smith is going to retire as he […]
