  • New York Knicks at San Antonio Spurs – Game 5 NBA Finals 2026

    The New York Knicks win the NBA Finals 4-1 over the San Antonio Spurs! The franchises’ first championship since 1973, and third overall. Jalen Brunson, and his 45-point outburst, made sure the Knicks brought the Larry O’ Brien trophy back to New York, instead of a tension-filled Game 6 at Madison Square Garden. Sure, winning in-front of your home crowd…

  • San Antonio Spurs at New York Knicks – Game 4 NBA Finals 2026

    WOW!! The New York Knicks completed the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history, beating the San Antonio Spurs 107-106 in Game 4 to take a commanding 3-1 series lead.

  • San Antonio Spurs at New York Knicks – Game 3 NBA Finals 2026

    Victor Wembanyama, Stephon Castle and the San Antonio Spurs went into the belly of the beast, with their playoff lives on the line, and won Game 3 115-111 in front of a sold-out, raucous Madison Square Garden crowd. Both Wemby and Castle got off to quick starts and helped San Antonio build up a double-digit first quarter lead. New York…

  • New York Knicks at San Antonio Spurs – Game 2 NBA Finals 2026

    Victor Wembanyama, Stephon Castle and the rest of the San Antonio Spurs find themselves in the unenviable position of being down 0-2 in the NBA Finals, after losing Game 2 105-104. Out of the 474 playoff series that had a team go up 2-0, only 35 of them have overturned the deficit and came back to win. Out of the…

  • New York Knicks at San Antonio Spurs – Game 1 NBA Finals 2026

    The New York Knicks went into San Antonio and landed the first haymaker of the NBA Finals, winning Game 1 105-95. Jalen Brunson finished with 30-points, while battling through multiple injuries. The first came when Landry Shamet tossed Harrison Barnes aside on a box out attempt, unfortunately Brunson was nearby and took a shot on his knee. Cameras caught him…

  • The 10 Most Important Players – 2026 NBA Finals

    Victor Wembanyama – If he completes the job, and brings the title home to San Antonio, the ‘best in the world’ crown is his. Just getting to the NBA Finals means he’s already in the conversation with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Nikola Jokić and Luka Dončić. It’s astonishing that he’s 7-ft, 4-in (maybe taller) and has the skill-set of a guard, all…

  • Minnesota Timberwolves at San Antonio Spurs – Game 2

    In a must-win situation the San Antonio Spurs played with the intensity and concentration needed to win an NBA championship. They absolutely dismantled the Minnesota Timberwolves 133-95, just an all-around ass-kicking. Victor Wembanyama still shot poorly from the perimeter, 2-7 from 3-pt, but started the game attacking from the interior and working his way inside-out. The physicality that worked so…

  • Minnesota Timberwolves at San Antonio Spurs – Game 1

    The biggest story coming into the Minnesota-San Antonio Western Conference semifinal was the availability of Wolves star Anthony Edwards. The sixth-year pro hyperextended his knee and suffered a bone bruise on April 25th in the Wolves 112-96 Game 4 win over the Denver Nuggets. After the game it was reported he would miss the rest of the first round and…

  • Almost Back (for real, I swear)

    Back in June 2024 I wrote a post called ‘Almost Back‘ where I talked about how the NBA was closing in on their new media deal, which ultimately netted them an 11-year deal worth approximately $77 billon dollars – about $7 billion dollars per season that is then equally divided 30 ways. Once the mega-deal was struck and then signed,…
