Imagine an NBA that determines playoff seeding the way the NCAA does. High-profile wins are met with low number seeding, and where losses to Louisville or South Carolina tank your Madness odds. The Minnesota Timberwolves would be hard-pressed to justify even a middle-of-the-road seed, with numerous losses to bottom-dwelling teams. What went wrong in the […] READ MORE
Forget about the fun part, time flies no matter what. It’s already All-Star weekend, which means it’s a natural time to stop and reflect on the season thus far. Fans of the Minnesota Timberwolves have seen trades from big to massive, fun free agent signings, a five-game winning streak, a six-game losing streak, and a […] READ MORE
It happened… D’Angelo Russell is no longer a Timberwolf. In a three-team deal that sent him to Los Angeles, Minnesota brought in veteran Mike Conley and former Wolves draft target Nickeil Alexander-Walker to go along with three second-round picks. It’s tempting to look at this trade as a one-for-one Russell for Conley swap… it’s not. […] READ MORE
The LA Clippers are barely treading water in the western conference. A lack of a full roster, inconsistent play, and a tougher schedule is plaguing the team. Amidst this disappointing season is the equally frustrating play from their point guards, Reggie Jackson and John Wall. Both lead guards have had up-and-down seasons. Consequently, this led […] READ MORE
Everything changed for the Utah Jazz in a matter of months. Perhaps it was the poor showings in the playoffs versus the Dallas Mavericks, or perhaps it was countless postseason disappointments finally piling up.

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers, simply put, were not happy with their outcomes last season. They missed the playoffs after winning the championship just two years ago. The Russell Westbrook mega-trade didn’t work out as planned while Anthony Davis dealt with constant injuries. Frank Vogel is now gone as well, replaced by Darvin Ham as head coach. The […] READ MORE
It’s not a stretch to say that the Utah Jazz are moving into a full rebuild. The last time they took the court was in their playoff series versus the Dallas Mavericks and the team will have a completely different look next season. Defensive anchor Rudy Gobert was sent to the Minnesota Timberwolves while star guard Donovan Mitchell is […] READ MORE
The Utah Jazz finally decided to split up their main core after another year of playoff failure. The duo of Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert have been together ever since Mitchell was drafted in 2017. After an embarrassing loss to Dallas in the first round, Utah decided to ship off Gobert. Minnesota seemed like the […] READ MORE
The Los Angeles Lakers need to get creative this offseason, especially when it comes to trades. LeBron James is likely in the tail end of his career (but then again, he’s James) whereas a lot of money is also tied up into Russell Westbrook and Anthony Davis. The time to do anything possible to contend is right now, especially […] READ MORE
Rumors are swirling around Jalen Brunson leaving the Dallas Mavericks in free agency and joining the New York Knicks. Although nothing is certain until pen hits paper, it looks increasingly likely that Brunson will depart Dallas. Some may say that leaving Dallas is foolish due to the fact that the Mavericks just made the conference finals, but […] READ MORE
