On Saturday night, when the Milwaukee Bucks ended the Golden State Warriors’ reign of perfection, they were predictably excited.

Starting the 2015-16 NBA regular season 16-0 isn’t enough for the Golden State Warriors. Yes, it’s the best start in league history. And sure, it’s left them as overwhelming title favorites once again. But the Warriors have more immediate goals in mind. Like setting the record for most consecutive wins. From the San Jose Mercury [...]

Hassan Whiteside blocks a lot of shots for the Miami Heat. In the eyes of opponents, he’s blocking too many shots. He’s sending back a league-leading 4.8 per game, with a block percentage (12.9, per Basketball-Reference) that’s through the roof.
