I just love watching the Nuggets play. Malone has forged a great defensive team. Jokic is something new. Murray is a force, but Aaron Gordon is the most under rated player around. There is a lot of parity in the League now in terms of ability. The coaching is producing some interesting...

The Wolves vs Nuggets is a chess game. The most interesting series by far. I give Malone a lot of credit for last night's performance. To think that Sac gave up on him. The Nuggets came out passing the ball, getting the ball in the paint and then kicking it to the perimeter. That created...

You guys must be watching a different team. I love Mike Brown. Pay close attention to the defense that is becoming more common in the NBA finals. The Wolves and Thunder are pretty good at it. That is the piece that is missing with the Kings.

Minnesota Timberwolves are destroying the Denver Nuggets. I have always been a fan of defense and these last two games have been amazing to watch. Reid and Edwards are way under rated. The Wolves are long and play an aggressive style that has really bothered the Nuggets. Since it is playoff...

Depends on the match ups. Against the Pels for instance, I like the idea. Good defenses react to what the offense throws at them. Just remember that the position a player can handle is determined by who they can guard.

"A menace on the perimeter."

Mike Brown is slowly molding the Kings into a good defensive team. It feels like a Dream.

Not just a victory but redemption. The new look Kings did not just beat the Ws, they demoralized them. No more smiling, smirking, behind the back passes and walking off the court at the end of the game. The Terriers starters looked absolutely ordinary. The Kings held them to under 100...

Edey will be a great addition to almost any team.

Tough to beat any team in the NBA that makes 3s like the Pelicans did last night. Physically the Kings were over matched at the 4 and 5 a lot of the time. The Pels have a good inside/outside game we do not match up against them worth beans. Len had a physical presence. Sabonis was...

The League seems to have a lot of talent in the Western Conference and great parity. There may have been few times when winning a championship is so challenging.

Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris hitting multiple home runs at Griffith Stadium. U of Maryland playing South Carolina at Cole Field House and beating the No 1 team 33-31 before the shot clock. U of Washington beating Michigan in the 1978 Rose Bowl.

I sat down and watched the Women's Final Four for the first time. They have come a long way. The good teams are fundamentally sound and play the right way. Clark is a great passer. Some big centers really dominate. Defenses are slow to change and double team. I like watching it though.

The season starts to feel really long about now. Everyone is banged up and tired of traveling. They are mentally worn out. Mental lapses led to turnovers and poor offense in the 4th quarter.

Nothing happened to the horse. He was smart enough to stop and did not go off the drop off.
