NACOGDOCHES – Always wanted to do that. Subscribe now and your contribution will literally go toward the gas that drives me to the 2026 NBA Finals, which are not in Nacogdoches (but should be, someday). NEW YORK KNICKS C: Karl-Anthony Towns – not particularly explosive against the Spurs this season but also
San Antonio 111, Oklahoma City 103 Spurs win Western finals There are only five intelligible lyrics in the AC/DC classic "Thunderstruck." One is the title of the song, which admittedly listeners mostly glean from context clues. Two others are "you've been," as in,
San Antonio 118, Oklahoma City 91 Western finals tied, 3-3 Six games in, and I'm convinced that the reason neither of these groups compete on the road is that they are scared of the other team and do not think they have a chance to beat them. What,
It was supposed to be wide open. That's my problem, it ain't simply the Knicks, the hated Knicks, but that this Eastern field was a superior drag. The one-sided nature of all this. That and the stupid Knicks. And this isn't another column about
Oklahoma City 127, San Antonio 114 Thunder lead series, 3-2 Experience isn't a prerequisite for screaming success, but it helps to understand what job you're scheduled for. The Spurs thought they had an idea of what Game 5 would feel like and it turns out the

San Antonio Spurs 103, Oklahoma City 82 Western finals tied, 2-2 The Thunder will play Oklahoma City's 200th combined game of the 2024-25/2025-26 seasons on Tuesday night. The Spurs look like they're good for about 200 games on Tuesday, total, if you'll let
Oklahoma City 123, San Antonio 108 Thunder lead series, 2-1 The Spurs are battered, sidelined, hamstrung, but flustered more than anything, especially after that Game 3 fulmination from the Oklahoma City Fulminations. The Spurs are flippin' fulminatin' all over their insides right now, the sort of lightning strikes
New York 109, Cleveland 93 Knicks lead Eastern finals, 2-0 This time wasn't embarrassing. The Cavaliers showed spark at the outset, competed throughout, gave us a strong Game 2 until the final garbage minutes. We don't trust the Cavs and watch them without expecting anything, and
Oklahoma City 122, San Antonio 113 Western finals tied, 1-1 So now we've realized Victor Wembanyama represents our bold future. A real-life Sidd Finch set to slam NBA opponents out of championship contention, swat front offices away from starting five-year Finals plans. Even if Year One launches in
New York 115, Cleveland 104 (OT) Knicks lead series 1-0 There was a thought I had, with the Cavaliers up 92-71 and eight minutes left in this contest, Donovan Mitchell splashing threes. Thought the Cavaliers might need to "bottle some of these" makes. That the Cavs, clear winners
NO. 3 NEW YORK KNICKS VS. NO. 4 CLEVELAND CAVALIERS These two met to start the first League Pass night of the 2025-26 season, Oct. 22. Still a little time left to put together a reasonable Halloween costume. Maybe George Plimpton in 'Paper Lion' but then again you&
