Christmas is one of the best times of year, not only for the holiday, but also a great opportunity to break down more hoops! I have been receiving great feedback, especially on word choice (I will try to dumb it down for you, Uncle Bill)…. I want to break down a few advanced analytics that…
Yesterday, I shared my top 10 draft prospects for the 2026 NBA Draft. I know it’s a bit early, but with the new year approaching, there’s no better time to reflect on what these talented prospects have accomplished over the past year. Here’s my full draft board. Today I want to cover a few of…
This year’s draft is one of the best top to bottom in recent memory. Many of these lottery picks would be 1st overall in many past drafts. These are my best available prospects: The shocking part about my list is that all of these players are freshmen! Top to bottom, this draft has the potential…
The Oklahoma City Thunder may very well win 74+ games this year. A record that lasted only 10 years. Long ago, many thought the Bulls were untouchable, then the Warriors, but now we have a new beast taking the league by storm. The Bulls had the Goat, and the Warriors had the greatest shooter of…
We’re talking about practice? A famous quote by a one-in-a-generation player, the great Allen Iverson. Practice should be harder than games. I am a true believer that it best prepares your players for competition. Why? Putting them under immense pressure in practice makes game pressure more manageable. Stress and adversity: Both are a part of…
My favorite position on the court. The quarterback, extension of the coach, and has to be one of the smarter players, is the point guard. So much responsibility lies on the back of the point guard. Without a proper point guard, teams have an immediate advantage on defense. There is nothing worse than watching a…
I love NBA players. The NBA game is high-level stuff. However, the game is evolving in a way that seems to give it a bad rap. 3-point variance. The number one talking point of all media heads nowadays. The league used to not be so cranky. When the analytic heads took over, it became different.…
Day 2 – As much as I love offense, there is nothing like good defense. Whether that be team or individual defense, there is nothing like locking another team up. My favorite type is run-and-jump, heavy ball pressure, jumping passing lanes, causing absolute chaos on the court at all times. Although unsustainable man, it is…
Hoop Talk Day 1…For me, I like offense a lot, and without scorers, you cannot achieve your goals. Defense is everything; guarding one-on-one is crucial in certain late-clock situations. Offense is flow, making the defense guard multiple actions, creating multiple reads for scorers to make plays. A go-to scorer is nice, but imagine a team…
In a stunning Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the New York Knicks overcame a 20-point deficit to defeat the Boston Celtics 108–105 in overtime at TD Garden on May 5, 2025. This game started just as the Celtics had envisioned—but it ended in a way they never could have imagined. A complete collapse…
As the NBA playoffs heat up, one of the most intriguing matchups is set: the New York Knicks travel to TD Garden to face the Boston Celtics in Game 1 of their second-round series. The regular season told a one-sided story—Boston swept the Knicks 4-0—but the playoffs are a different beast. And if there’s one…
In one of the most remarkable turnarounds in recent NBA history, the Detroit Pistons have defied expectations by securing the 6th seed in the Eastern Conference for the 2024–25 season, all while maintaining one of the league’s lowest salary cap allocations. This achievement marks their first playoff appearance since 2019 and their first postseason victory…
