Divisions, in nearly all professional sports, seem rather arbitrary. Example: No one cares how many NL East crowns the Atlanta Braves won in the ’90s, people cared more about their failures to win multiple World Series. Really, divisions are rather silly.

Documentation of a new NBA schedule isn’t complete without documenting road trips, their durations, and their opponents. I am personally more interested in the numbers of back-to-backs and 4-in-5s.

Individual games are one thing, full series quite another. Matthew Dellavedova discovered this truth in the 2015 NBA Finals. He had a moment in Game 2. He enjoyed a magnificent Game 3. The full series, however, caught up with him and the rest of a shorthanded Cleveland Cavalier crew. Andre Iguodala, on the other hand, […]
