ESPN’s Tim MacMahon attempted to apologize for besmirching reporter Grant Afseth as a “wannabe journalist” on Wednesday’s episode of the Hoop Collective podcast. Afseth is credentialed for Dallas Mavericks games, practices and pressers, and writes for his Substack page, Dallas Hoops Journal. On Feb. 7, MacMahon reported that the Mavericks’ top executive of basketball […]
The Nuggets obliterated the Trail Blazers in the paint with 88 points, recording a new season high. Nikola Jokić had a 40-point masterpiece and didn’t have to play in the fourth quarter. And five of his teammates logged double digits in scoring. After the game, Jokić said, “Maybe because we are scoring that much […]
The Nuggets cruised to their sixth consecutive win while facing the Suns minus Kevin Durant and Grayson Allen. Even with key absences to Russell Westbrook and Michael Porter Jr., this was still a tuneup game for the Nuggets. Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokić were unstoppable, but the hosts hung around for a half because they […]
The Nets’ defense made the Heat look impotent in the fourth quarter, their second-worst (net rating) of the season, after scoring nine points on 9.5% shooting. It was like a varsity squad whooping on five randoms at the park. Such a poor showing highlighted the need for reinforcements coming soon in the form of Andrew […]
Andrew Wiggins now wears #22 for the Miami Heat after requesting it. This highlights how badly the relationship ended with Jimmy Butler, who wore the same digits since 2019 until the trade on Wednesday. If Butler was concerned with his number, he should’ve handled his exit with more class. While Wiggins may not have […]
The Nuggets were missing Jamal Murray (knee), Russell Westbrook (hamstring), and Peyton Watson (sprained knee), but it was no problem for them to dispatch the touring Magic. Michael Porter Jr. went on a heater, scoring on cuts and downing his long jumper. And Nikola Jokić recorded his 24th triple-double of the season. The Nuggets […]
Jimmy Butler finally complained his way out of Miami and ruined his reputation with the help of his agent Bernie Lee. The latter is a bully who even went as far as verbally attacking the ESPN reporter, Shams Charania, to taint his credibility but failed. Perhaps Butler will feel contrition in the future for […]
Five Heatles scoring in double-figures wasn’t enough to secure the win because the defense lost its edge and gave up 19 trifectas. To make matters worse, the Bulls scored 16.1 percentage points above the league average in the paint non restricted area. But things were going well early. Duncan Robinson and Kel’el Ware scored […]
The Nuggets fell apart late in New York and squandered an opportunity for a quality win. Jamal Murray carried the team on Nikola Jokić’s down night, but the defense’s failure to cover screen rolls and getting clobbered in transition outweighed his impact. After the game, coach Michael Malone said, “The big stat for me […]
The Nuggets were slain by the Bulls on tour because of their inability to defend the three-point line and could barely hit any treys of their own. After the game, coach Michael Malone blasted his team, saying. “Once again, it was us just messing with the game, thinking we can just show up and […]
