Yes, the Jordan vs LeBron debate has been done to death, but it’s been done poorly. Fans have been subjected to attempts to “win” the conversation for their side, without legitimate points being exchanged. This all changed when Mike Fry wrote his book, “G.O.A.T. Envy”, in an attempt to bring facts and remove the myths.…
What would have happened if the Hornets were not interested in Vlade in the 96 draft, and wanted to keep their pick? They had never worked out Bryant prior to selecting him, so simply saying he’d go to the Hornets doesn’t work either. It’s entirely possible that Kobe slips all the way to the Knicks…
Kawhi Leonard was traded to the Raptors earlier today, and with it, ended one of the strangest sagas in NBA history. In episode 77 of the I Still Love This Game podcast, I take a look back at the timeline of what happened following the Zaza Pachulia injury until today, along with the fallout for…
It’s one of the greatest “what ifs” in NBA history, and whenever it comes up, the conversation is usually centered around the direction of the Sonics or the Blazers, but how significantly does the NBA change if the Blazers had drafted Kevin Durant?

Heading into this series, a lot of people were critical of the fact that we have another Cavs and Warriors finals, but after game 1, those criticisms were silenced. We saw one of the great performances by LeBron, along with a solid showing by the splash brothers, and when you combine that with an almost…
Despite it being the 4th straight season resulting in a Cavs and Warriors showdown in the finals, this doesn’t feel like a stale match-up. With the emergence of Houston and the struggles of the Cavs this season, there wasn’t an expectation of both these teams meeting in the finals, but now that we’re here, who…
After following LeBron’s remarkable performance in game 7 against the Celtics, much will be said about it’s relevance historically in the coming days.
