I do believe that there is a current unhealthy symbiotic relationship between gambling and sports that is going to come to a head at some point,...
I mean, have you considered that it is not basketball and pro sports that is broken, but literally every other job in America? The NBA is...
I think my counterpoint here is looking back at D'Angelo Russell and R.J. Barrett, similar high draft picks who signed near max deals and were...
I generally agree with you, although for arguments sake, the two players he was both comped to heavily during the pre-draft process in Zach LaVine...
Off the rip, I am disinclined to like this deal, because I don't think that the discount that was offered in per-year salary is commensurate with...
This is 100% false. Please delete or edit this post to avoid spreading inaccurate information. No Trade Clauses cannot be added to extensions, and...
Isn't the bigger story that Sheppard is shooting 55% from inside the arc, rather than 24% from 3? To me, the worry with Reed was not that he...
Uh, hi, Clutchfans... I've been doing some thinking, and I got some ideas to improve the team. 1. Jalen needs to be louder, angrier and have...

The rub is certainly going to be how much of 3pt defense is attributable to repeatable factors, and how much is purely due to luck. If the part...
I found this research from the period of 2013 - 2021 to be quite good regarding the concept of "luck" when it comes to defending the 3pointer...
The thing that keeps having me waiver back and forth on Jalen is when you drop the comparison down from MVP candidate All-NBAer like...
100% agree, imagine if a championship caliber organization like the Boston Celtics were unexpectedly gifted a #3 overall pick from the Brooklyn...
This is a surprising level of specificity from Bibby on the culprit, also interesting in that former players usually have terrible memories on...
