Previewing the Dallas Mavericks for the 2026-27 Season

The 2025-26 season for the Dallas Mavericks was a train wreck, as they finished 26-56. Trading Anthony Davis during the regular season and then firing GM Nico Harrison just created a chaotic environment for rookie Cooper Flagg. Owner Patrick Dumont was not hesitant to make a necessary change at the GM level, bringing in Masai Ujiri, an established executive in the league, while also making an outside-the-box hire in Dusty May. The Mavericks certainly have the pieces to make t

Previewing the Denver Nuggets for the 2026-27 Season

The Denver Nuggets are coming off a very underwhelming and disappointing season. They had a very successful regular season at 54-28, securing the 3 seed, but then a total disaster occurred in the playoffs when they lost to the Timberwolves once again, even though Minnesota was shorthanded. The roster is basically the same, but they did make a very nice addition in DeMar DeRozan. He can provide some scoring depth, and while he may be older now, if he can get in sync with Nikol

Previewing the Los Angeles Lakers for the 2026-27 Season

They’ve had a major roster overhaul, and Rob Pelinka made plenty of moves this offseason for fans to at least be intrigued by the squad entering a new season. The Lakers wrapped up last season by getting swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder in the second round. That led to a rebuild around Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves. Losing LeBron James, I think, will hurt them more than they think, as he basically led

Previewing the Houston Rockets for the 2026-27 Season

The Houston Rockets wrapped up the 2025-26 season in underwhelming fashion. Losing to the injured Los Angeles Lakers in six games after going down 3-0 was just unacceptable. There was no reason they should have lost a series to a Lakers team with a 41-year-old LeBron James as the No. 1 option. Ime Udoka called out his team after going down 3-0 in the series, telling them to “grow up” and saying, “You’re not that young anymore.” The Rockets just wrapped up their media day, as

Where Jalen Brunson Already Ranks Among All-Time Point Guards

With the Knicks winning the 2026 NBA Championship and Jalen Brunson putting on a legacy-defining performance the way he did, it really helped cement the 30-year-old point guard’s legacy. He won in college and then at the professional level. Throughout his career, he has really shown that the clutch gene exists, and some players have it while others do not. For the three-time All-Star and three-time All-NBA Second Team player, those might not be insane accolades, but he has so

By: Mac Brown For generations now, college football has had the most crucial and significant regular season in all of organized team sports. For the younger readers, there once was a time where losing a single regular season game, especially past the month of October, meant your national title hopes were all but gone. As time marched on, we collectively realized having title hopes crushed before Halloween and having only two true title contenders at seasons end wasn't represe
