2021-22 NBA Award Show (4/18/22)
Another fantastic NBA regular season has come and gone, and it is once again time for NBA award selection. Picking my winners was tough this year.

The Epic Turnaround of the Phoenix Suns (7/4/21)
Just four years ago, in the 2017-18 season, the Phoenix Suns were awful. They were last in the league in offensive and defensive ratings. Young star Devin Booker was playing for a team where his second best player was T.J. Warren (pre-bubble, of course). Their recent lottery picks, Dragan Bender and Josh Jackson, weren’t performingContinue reading “The Epic Turnaround of the Phoenix Suns (7/4/21)”
