The NBA Trade Deadline passed on Thursday. This was easily the craziest trade deadline of any sport in my lifetime, and it would not surprise me if it were the craziest one in sports history. Not only did we get one of the biggest blockbuster trades in NBA history, but many other All-Stars were dealt, too.
Seeing the news of the Luka Doncic trade in the NBA on Sunday morning didn’t feel real. Two days later, it still feels fake. The trade between the Lakers and Mavericks late Saturday night is something that the sports world cannot fathom. Not only is it one of the biggest deals in NBA history, but it could also be the worst.
In the early hours of Sunday morning, Chris gave his instant thoughts on the Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis swap that sent shockwaves through the NBA.
In 1989, the Dallas Cowboys traded Herschel Walker to the Minnesota Vikings. Nearly 70 years earlier, the Boston Red Sox nestled into a curse by trading Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees. In hockey, Edmonton sent Wayne Gretsky to the Los Angeles Kings, which stunned the world.
It has been about a month since we last ranked the top 10 teams in the NBA. Plenty has happened since then.
The third week of the Emirates NBA Cup (formerly known as the In-Season Tournament) gave us hints on which teams got eliminated and which teams gained paths to the Knockout Rounds. With the stakes getting higher and higher, players are supposed to step up. Unfortunately, being under the bright lights of the tournament can get in your head sometimes.
We’re back! This is Part 2 of this year’s bi-weekly NBA power rankings.
The 2024-25 NBA season is in full swing the MVP race has already begun.
We’re here! This is Part 1 of this year’s bi-weekly NBA Power Rankings.
There is something about October that is infused with excitement. Perhaps it is the start of the NBA season informing our brains that the wait is finally over.
It must be weird facing your former team. It is, without a doubt, an awkward feeling when past teammates become your enemies. How would a player or coach deal with it? Does it add any more pressure? We can only guess, but we know that they will do anything to eliminate the team they used to play for.
The most wonderful time of the year is (almost) here. Whether you love or hate the NBA play-in tournament, it always adds stakes to the end of the season. It certainly also does not hurt that this tournament consists of LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Steph Curry, Joel Embiid, and Jimmy Butler having to play in big games.
