Tomorrow night, I will be travelling to New York City, and this will be my first time not only visiting the Big Apple, but it will also be my first time travelling solo. I’ll likely have a post later on in the week when I come back about my experience and how it went. But before I leave tomorrow, I want to relate this to my passion, which is sports. And New York is obviously a pretty unique sports market, as it has multiple teams in multiple leagues. Because of that, I wanted
NBA All-Star Weekend is now upon us, and once again, the NBA is rolling out a new format because they’ve realized their All-Star Game is one of the worst (if not the worst) in all of sports. This year, they’re going with the format fans have been suggesting for a long time: USA vs. the World. However, they’ve done a weird thing with it and turned it into a format that nobody understands. I haven’t even fully read up on it, but based on what I’ve seen, there are three teams of
As I am writing this, it is late Monday night on the West Coast. I just got off work, and while I was on my shift, reports surfaced that James Harden has unexpectedly requested a trade from the Los Angeles Clippers. Completely out of nowhere. I am genuinely shocked. The Clippers have been playing great basketball recently after a tough stretch earlier in the season. Harden has arguably been playing his best basketball in years. He is not the MVP version of himself from Housto
Tomorrow is Christmas Day, which for many NBA fans has always felt like the unofficial start of the season. For years, this was the moment when football started to wrap up and the NBA fully took the stage. The league would roll out its biggest stars, its best teams, and its most marketable matchups for everyone to watch while spending time with their loved ones. However, that "aura", has felt like it’s been missing a bit in recent years. The NFL has taken over Christmas Day l
Don’t look now, but the Toronto Raptors are suddenly one of the most fun teams to watch in the NBA at the start of this young basketball season. The Raptors currently have a record of 11–5 and hold the second seed in the Eastern Conference and have emerged as one of the most interesting teams in a conference turned upside down this year. With Tyrese Haliburton out for the year in Indiana and Jayson Tatum sidelined with an Achilles injury for the Celtics, who underwent major c
We’re only a few weeks into the NBA season, but the picture at the top is becoming clearer by the day. As much as we love to convince ourselves that the league is wide open — that five, six, or seven teams could realistically win a title — the early evidence says otherwise. At this point, I think the 2026 NBA championship is shaping up to be a two-horse race. Unless Shai Gilgeous-Alexander or Nikola Jokić suffers a major injury, the Larry O’Brien Trophy is headed back to eith
Less than ten months after the blockbuster Luka Dončić trade, the Dallas Mavericks have made the move we all saw coming as they fired GM Nico Harrison. With the front office reset and the roster now sitting between two timelines, the direction of the franchise is becoming increasingly unclear. Dallas currently features veteran stars like Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving, who when they return to the floor after recovering from injury, will want to compete for championships as th
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
The NBA season starts next week, and while I’ve been critical of Adam Silver and the league’s declining ratings in recent years, I still love the league and believe there’s real reason for excitement heading into this season. With aging legends still chasing rings, new stars on the come up, and maybe unexpected title contenders coming out nowhere, this NBA season could be one of the most exciting in recent memory and here are some of my favourite storylines going to this seas
