Nine games scheduled; we’ll see if that stands. Hopefully you’re reading this before noon, otherwise, you’ll have missed the Knicks vs. the Magic. If you did that on purpose, I’d understand.

76ers Subjected To Two Miserable Last-Second Losses In One Game
The 76ers lost by a point to the lowly Bulls Wednesday night, 108–107, in Chicago. Whatever.

Well, Zach LaVine Can Still Dunk
Bulls guard Zach LaVine has played just 11 games since returning from a torn ACL that cost him a big chunk of last season. As is the case whenever a player known for his athleticism returns from an ACL injury, there were some questions about whether LaVine would remain a purveyor of big dunks....

Zach LaVine has always been an athletic freak capable of jamming it on people and pulling off a wide variety of spectacular dunks.

No Losing Team Is As Fun Or As Intriguing As The Timberwolves
It would be an overreaction to last night’s overtime victory over the Warriors to proclaim that it heralds the Timberwolves’ arrival. It was just one game, after all, and the team is still just 26-52, the fifth-worst record in the NBA. It also remains to be seen how they deal with the organizational...
Hoo Boy, Take A Look At This Zach LaVine Dunk
