This NBA season has been absolutely unprecedented. With teams constantly shooting up and down the standings, heightened league-wide parity, and individual scoring explosions we haven’t seen since the days of Wilt Chamberlain, the NBA is in a state of chaos as the All-Star break approaches. Yet, somehow, through it all, the Denver Nuggets have come out of it looking like the best team in the West. With a 26-13 record so far this season, Denver is poised to finish with one of the top records in basketball and Jokic is on track to win his third straight MVP. According to…

As the Lakers fight to win games on the court, a battle has been raging from within the organization. In one corner are Rob Pelinka, Jeanie Buss, and the Lakers’ front office management. To them, making a panic trade is pointless right now because it wouldn’t make the team instant title contenders. But for LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, and the entire Lakers fanbase, there is a belief that they can make a meaningful run with just one or two moves. No matter your own personal beliefs on the matter, every game the Lakers win takes them a step closer to…

For years, the comparison between LeBron James and Kevin Durant was a topic that started every television show and flooded every roundtable of sports talk. James helped his spot atop the NBA hierarchy as a 4-time champion and 4-time Finals MVP with 10 total career appearances in the Finals as a player. Durant began to insert his name into the conversation with James once he became a 2-time NBA champion and 2-time Finals MVP with the Golden State Warriors. Was it ever a serious conversation, though? The short answer is yes. Both James and Durant were at the top of…

No LeBron James’ record doesn’t sound absurd at this point in his career. His longevity has been incredible, he has been the face of the league for almost all of the 2000s. LBJ is extremely close to breaking Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s record for most points scored in NBA history, it’s merely a matter of when not if. But this isn’t his only major record, James has done some truly unbelievable stuff during his career. LeBron James recently passed Oscar Robertson for an extremely unique record after he dropped a massive 40-point performance on his birthday. When a player has been at the top for…

Shaquille O’Neal was flummoxed when he saw a Top 10 list of NBA players that didn’t have the late Kobe Bryant as part of it. The former Los Angeles Lakers big man took to social media to share the graphic of the ‘Top 10 All-Time’ from the page ‘Playmaker’ that shed his two cents on the fact that it didn’t have Bryant on it. The list comprised LeBron James (listed No. 1 over Michael Jordan) and then had Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant as part of the ten — something O’Neal found shocking. y’all agree with this, i don’t they missing main man KOBE what yall…

The tragedy that occurred on January 26, 2020, is still a wound that won’t close for basketball fans worldwide. Kobe Bryant, one of the greatest talents the NBA has ever seen, passed away in a helicopter crash in Calabasas, California. What made the news even sadder was the fact that Kobe’s daughter, Gianna Bryant, was also with him. She was only 13 years old. Along with the Bryants were John and Keri Altobelli, their daughter, Alyssa; Sarah Chester and her daughter, Payton; and Christina Mauser, who was an assistant coach. The pilot, Ara Zobayan, was also killed in the crash.…

The 2023 NBA season is well underway, and the league has changed thanks to constant movements by players across teams and conferences. We are living in a time where players simply can’t stay put as they look for greener pastures, while general managers and executives are also unafraid to make blockbuster deals at any given moment. For those fans that love to see exciting trades and free agency signings every year, the NBA is delivering just that at the moment. Looking ahead to the rest of this season and even going forward, it is anticipated that there will be more…

In today’s NBA, the 3-point field goal is a primary offensive factor. In the last decade, teams have taken advantage of the shot that gives an extra point. Don’t believe us? The numbers prove that teams are making 1,000 more three-pointers compared to when the three-point line was unveiled before the 1979-80 season. What makes the 3-point field goal special is that it is one more point than a regular field goal and two more points than a free throw. Teams are starting to recognize the math and have used it to help with their offensive showcase. The three-point line…

The Golden State Warriors were in very high spirits leading into the 2022-23 NBA season. The defending champions had brought back most of the key pieces from their title run and looked to dominate the league once again when disaster seemingly struck. Just a couple of weeks before the start of the season, Jordan Poole and Draymond Green got into an altercation during practice that ended with Green punching Poole in the face. While the general public, at first, had no idea how severe it was, a video was eventually leaked to TMZ and the situation got a whole lot worse. Many wondered if the…

Unless you pay no attention whatsoever to sports talk shows, you’d know that Shannon Sharpe is one of the biggest LeBron James fans around. The NFL Hall of Famer has had a great transition to television and on his Undisputed show on FS1, Sharpe has been very vocal about his support for LeBron. He often clashes with his co-host Skip Bayless, one of LeBron’s biggest critics, on topics regarding the King and their show has gained a lot of popularity. With the Lakers taking on the Atlanta Hawks, Sharpe decided to head over to Crypto.com Arena and LeBron showed him some love after the…

Researchers digging in the ancient city of Aizanoi have announced the discovery of many new artifacts and works. But the discovery of an “almost intact” statue of a giant man with one foot takes the archaeological biscuit. At this site, that’s listed on the  UNESCO World Heritage  Tentative List , over the years archaeologists have unearthed ancient stone heads and bodies depicting Greek gods and goddesses such as  Eros, Dionysus, Aphrodite and the demigod  Herakles. This season, archaeologists greatly added to their expanding haul from this site and they have announced the discovery of “many large and small pieces of marble sculptures,” including an “almost intact” giant man carved in…

An ancient fountain that was destroyed in a 23 BC earthquake has been restored in Turkey’s “City of Gladiators.’ Now, the two millennia old water font is streaming drinkable water again, just as it did some 2,000-years ago.
