Pamela Owens+FollowCavs fall to 15–12 after a scoreless OT vs. Hornets — time to hit the panic button?Cleveland lost 119–111 (OT) to Charlotte and went 0-for-10 in the extra five minutes — 0 points in OT. They’re now 15–12, already 12 losses in 27 games after just 18 losses all last season. Should the front office ring the alarm bells or ride it out until they’re healthy? #NBA #Cavaliers #Hornets #Overtime #DonovanMitchell #DariusGarland #NBATalk20Share
James Allen+FollowDillon Brooks: “OKC plays the most physical ball… and gets the fewest whistles”After the 138–89 beatdown, Brooks called out the officiating vs. OKC, saying around the league the Thunder are seen as the most physical team while getting fewer fouls called — citing the Grayson Allen Flagrant 2 and adding he “hopes they change that up.” Spicy take after a historic blowout. Fair critique or just postgame heat? #NBA #Thunder #Suns #DillonBrooks #Officiating #PhysicalPlay #GraysonAllen #NBATalk30Share

Shawn Martin+FollowDespite the Loss to the Pacers, Westbrook Drops a 24–13–14 Triple-DoubleThe Kings fell 116–105 to the Pacers in Indianapolis, but Russell Westbrook turned in a vintage line: 24 PTS, 13 REB, 14 AST on 10/16 FG, 2/3 3PT, 2/4 FT, plus 2 STL and 1 BLK in 40 minutes. Indiana closed on a late run to seal it, but Russ kept Sacramento in it with downhill pressure and kick-outs all night. #NBA #Kings #Pacers #RussellWestbrook #TripleDouble #StatLine #NBATalk10Share
Steve Francis+FollowCeltics won 10 of their last 12 wins to climb to 3rd in the EastThe Celtics are on a quiet tear. They’ve now won 10 of their last 12 games and have climbed to 3rd in the East — all while Jayson Tatum has been out. Boston’s depth is showing out: elite defense, balanced scoring, and role players stepping up every night. This run is basically a reminder that the Celtics aren’t just a “Tatum team”… this roster is built to win even when the superstar is sidelined. If they’re playing this well without Tatum, what happens when he’s back? #NBA #Celtics #Boston #EasternConference #NBATalk #Basketball 10Share
James Allen+FollowRick Barry Once Offered to Fix Shaq’s Free ThrowsHall of Famer Rick Barry — a 90% career free-throw shooter — once tried to help Shaquille O’Neal fix the one flaw that followed him his whole career. Barry said he offered to teach young Shaq his famous underhand “granny-style” technique, which could’ve boosted Shaq’s percentages dramatically. Shaq’s response: “I’m a hip-hop guy. That’d be bad for my image.” Imagine if Shaq had swallowed his pride and shot even 70% instead of living in the 40s and 50s. Hack-a-Shaq might’ve died before it ever became a strategy. #NBA #Shaq #RickBarry #Lakers #Warriors #NBALegends #NBATalk10Share
Pamela Owens+Follow9 Years Ago Today: Klay Delivered the Purest Scoring Performance EverNine years later and Klay Thompson’s 60-point masterpiece still feels unreal. 60 points. 29 minutes. 11 dribbles. About 90 seconds of total ball time. That’s literally 1 point every 3 seconds he touched the ball. No iso heavy possessions. No pounding the dribble. Just pure off-ball movement, catch-and-shoot perfection, and the cleanest buckets you’ll ever see. IMHO, this might be the purest form of scoring we’ve ever witnessed in an NBA game. Everything about it was effortless — like Klay was operating in his own dimension. Was this the most beautiful scoring performance in league history? #NBA #KlayThompson #Warriors #NBALegends #NBAMoments #DubNation #NBATalk30Share
Shawn Martin+FollowWill OKC Become the First Team This Decade to Go Back-to-Back?It’s been one of the most unpredictable eras in NBA history in the 2020s. But with OKC’s young core, MVP-level SGA, and a roster that keeps leveling up every year… are they the first real threat to finally break the streak and repeat? Or will the league crown an eighth different champion? #NBA #Thunder #OKC #SGA #NBATalk #Playoffs #BackToBack 10Share
Andrew Anderson+FollowAfter Rams’ loss to Panthers, Bears are officially the NFC’s No. 1 seed entering DecemberBig shake-up in the NFC this week — thanks to the Los Angeles Rams dropping a 31–28 game to the Carolina Panthers, the Chicago Bears have now leap-frogged to the top of the conference standings. With both teams at 9-3, Chicago owns the tiebreaker thanks to a better NFC record (6-2 vs. L.A.’s 4-3). That means the Bears go into December as the No. 1 seed in the NFC — with home-field advantage on the line and full control of their playoff destiny. Crazy to think: from doubters early in the season to top seed in the league. #NFL #ChicagoBears #NBATalk #NFCPowerUps #Playoffs #BearsNation 30Share
