Between the roughly 520 miles of driving, and the two hours sitting on the upper deck press row of Xfinity Mobile Arena, around 95% of my Friday night was spent sitting down while the Celtics battled in a down-to-the-wire thriller against the 76ers. The decision to drive from my apartment in Richmond, Virginia to South […]
Boxing is not what it once was, but for much of the 20th century, it was a huge draw. Fighters from Joe Louis, to Rocky Marciano, then later, Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, and George Foreman, came across as warriors in the ring. Ali was widely acknowledged as the greatest, including by himself, and his fights […]

Amid the uncertainty surrounding Victor Wembanyama’s return date, the Spurs headed to Portland for a crucial Game 3.

In one of the most insane games in the history of Target Center, the Minnesota Timberwolves took down the Denver Nuggets 112-96 in Game 4 to take a 3-1 series lead. Unfortunately, the outcome of the game felt like a side story most of the night. A little more than a minute into the game, […]
Not content with one or two disastrous games, the Denver Nuggets added another ignominious chapter to one of the worst playoff… The post The Nuggets fold in Game 4, lose to the injured Timberwolves 112-96 appeared first on Denver Stiffs .
Originally, I figured that the most 2026 Houston Rockets thing that could happen is what happened in Game 3: take a sizable lead into the final moments and blow the game, culminating in an overtime loss. The poor play in clutch situations has defined this team, and their 20+ blown fourth quarter leads this year […]

As far as I can tell, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili only scored 30 points in the same game twice. I remember both instances well. The first came during the clinching Game 6 win against the Phoenix Suns in the 2007 Western Conference Semifinals, a critical home win with the series potentially going back to […]

Down 2–1 and stinging from back-to-back one-point losses, the Knicks return to Atlanta for a pivotal Game Four needing to clean up their own mess. Despite controlling the glass and large stretches of play, late-game breakdowns, uneven free-throw shooting, and questionable rotations have tanked winnable games. Jalen Brunson has yet to take over the series, […]
Scoot Henderson was drafted by the Portland Trail Blazers with the third pick in 2023. His arrival preceded the departure of Damian Lillard, prompting the natural but extremely irrational expectation that the former G League Igniter would step straight into the veteran’s shoes.
