Now that the NBA season is over for a few weeks now, it gave me time to no longer overreact and move on to giving my 2026 edition of my top 50 players in the league. So while we get into this, I just wanted to say what I truly value when I look at this list. I'm someone who tries to respect what players have done in the past, but I won't lie, there's also a bit of projection here when you'll see players coming off their first year in the league. You might be surprised where t
The Boston Celtics' decision to trade Jaylen Brown for Paul George and a draft pick is just awful. There is another way to say it. Even from the perspective of someone who is not a Celtics fan, the deal feels like a massive underpayment for one of the league's premier two-way stars. Paul George is now 36 years old, has struggled to stay healthy throughout recent seasons, and is playing under one of the NBA's least desirable contracts. Meanwhile, Brown is coming off of the bes
As you all probably know, I've always been someone who loves sports, and the three leagues I've consistently called my favourites are the NFL, the NHL, and the NBA. But today, I want to focus primarily on the NHL and NBA because I think the narratives surrounding both leagues have become far more similar than many fans are willing to admit. For years, hockey fans and the NBA have criticized the NBA for its era of player empowerment and constant movement. Depending on who you
The wait is finally over. For the first time since 1999, the New York Knicks are back in the NBA Finals where they will play either the San Antonio Spurs or the Oklahoma City Thunder. And right now, this is just the culmination of a complete revival of a once storied organization. The Knicks in the 1970s were one of the great organizations in the NBA (and is the last decade they captured a championship in) and in the 1990s, they made the NBA Finals twice, but just couldn’t ca
Before I get into this any deeper, let me just say, Kevin Durant is one of the greatest basketball players ever. He’s been an athlete I’ve looked up to and, in a way, related to. All he’s wanted to do is play this sport. He’s a guy that, in my opinion, does seem a bit socially isolated. He doesn’t come across as someone who really enjoys going out. He kind of just likes to get shots up, and in a lot of ways I relate to that. He’s one of the athletes I’ve raised watching, and
So over the weekend, it was NBA All-Star Weekend, and going into the events, I was skeptical. As you all know, I’ve written multiple pieces about how I disagree with how Adam Silver is running the NBA, but I have to give him credit. All-Star Weekend this year, aside from the dunk contest, I do think was good. This new format was good. It was competitive, and it looked like the superstars actually gave a crap, which was good for a change. So overall, it was a pretty good weeke
The 2025–26 NBA season is shaping up to be one of the most unpredictable in recent memory. From powerhouse teams on the brink of collapse to young stars ready to take over the league, there’s no shortage of storylines to watch. Here are five bold predictions that could completely reshape the landscape of the NBA this year — and spark plenty of debate along the way. 1. The Boston Celtics Will Have Their 2020 Warriors Season The Boston Celtics could be in for a rough year — one
The 2025-26 NBA season is shaping up to be one of the most fascinating in recent memory. With powerhouse rosters, rising stars ready to take the next step, and familiar legends still fighting to stay relevant, there’s no shortage of storylines. From the Knicks and Cavaliers emerging as the East’s clear frontrunners to the reigning champion Thunder trying to fend off the hungry Timberwolves and Nuggets out West, the league feels as competitive as ever. Here’s how I see the reg
