Once again, the San Antonio Spurs are the best team in the NBA that nobody is talking about. Factually speaking, they are the best team in the NBA record-wise. Last night, they set a franchise record with their 18th consecutive win. It’s hard to have an 18-game win streak fly under the radar, but that’s [...]

The NBA MVP race isn’t fun. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fun and it’s not fun. Watching LeBron James and Kevin Durant duke it out for MVP honors is most definitely fun. Knowing they’re the only two legitimate participants is not fun. Once in a while, it’s nice to not know who the MVP will [...]

Kevin Love’s free agency is more than a year away, yet it feels like he’s hitting the open market tomorrow. Why? Probably because his future is being picked apart from every different angle imaginable. One day he’s headed for the Los Angeles Lakers. The next day he could stay with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Kansas’ Andrew Wiggins could probably use another year in school to refine his game. By all measures, he wasn’t as impressive in college an we thought he’d be. Towards the end of the regular season and into the Big 12 tournament, he had a couple of strong showings. But all in all, he seemed aggressive every [...]

Dennis Rodman has done some really weird things during and post-career in the NBA. And a legendary career at that. In my mind the greatest rebounder of the modern NBA era. Some may even say one of the best basketball minds to play the game. He treated rebounding as a fine science, and he could [...]
