Seventy-three wins, best regular season team ever, two predictable playoff series wins later, the Golden State Warriors are now faced with the task of needing to win three out of the next four games to be able to continue their season.

NBA Playoffs: Can Anyone Beat The Cavs? Yes, The Cavs

A few weeks ago, in wide-eyed awe of the Golden State Warriors, on the heels of the best regular season record ever, we were asking the very relevant question (at the time) – whether anyone is equipped to stop the Dubs juggernaut. Oh boy, has the narrative changed since then. A Steph Curry sprained MCL and […]

A Fan’s Analysis Of The Dallas Cowboys’ 2016 Draft

May 2, 2016 By Cynthia Vargas-Recio

Somewhere in that sweet spot between watching the outlandish outfits on the red carpet and waiting for the inevitable Jared Goff – Carson Wentz 1-2 punch combo, we were treated to some unscripted Hollywood drama.  Gas masks, bong hits, social media accounts hacked, extortion, under the table cash payments. The 2016 draft had developed a […]

5 Series Predictions For The 2016 NBA Playoffs

Pro basketball is the sport when most often, the best team is crowned champions at the end of the season. There isn’t the survive-and-advance format of college hoops and college and pro football, or the “get hot at the right time” theme that takes over so many MLB and NHL postseasons. No, in the NBA very rarely does […]

After one of the most memorable last day of the season in recent history, the NBA heads into the “real season” with one dominating storyline to unfold over the next two months: Will the Golden State Warriors be able to continue their domination over the rest of the league and crown their record-setting regular season with another Larry O’Brien […]

The Slow & Steady Demise Of College Basketball

April 8, 2016 By Dan Voicescu

The Slow & Steady Demise Of College Basketball

On the heels of an incredibly dramatic, high-level championship game, the timing to discuss the demise of college basketball is less than ideal. Yet, here we are.
