Is there anyone on earth who cares that Ricky Rubio has now made 50 consecutive technical free-throws? I’m a pretty big stat-fiend, but I find that that particular stat doesn’t interest me at all. Come back to me when he challenges Micheal Williams’s consecutive free-throws record. That’s a lame one too, but at least it’s…

Davis Bertans 19 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (4/7/2017)
The Spurs are so much more fun when Kawhi Leonard isn’t playing. And Pau Gasol. And LaMarcus Aldridge. And Tony Parker. Those dudes, I know what those dudes are like. They’re good players, but familiarity breeds contempt or whatever. I want to see the role-players! And tonight, I got my wish. Big time. It’s no…

Is it too late for Jamal Murray to win ROY of the year? I’m just going to remove the suspense right away: no. It’s not. All it takes is one sick performance near the end of the year (because the voters, just like every human on earth, are reactionary), and a player can win easily….

Is now the time when we get mad at coach Pop for holding down Bryn Forbes the entire season? I know it’s not kosher to question Pop’s decisions because he’s one of the GOAT of all time coaches, but here’s a truth bomb for you: Bryn Forbes’ previous season high was eight. That’s right –…

I’m trying to figure out if there’s any correlation between these two events that just happened concurrently: -Boban Marjanovic played 27 minutes and scored a career-high 27 points -The Pistons beat the heavily favored Rockets Ah, now that I think about it, probably not. There’s no way that those two things are in any way…
