    Cooper Flagg said he’s 6’10 without shoes, and that doesn’t seem like it’s true. Cooper Flagg told the media he grew to 6’10 barefoot over the offseason when the Dallas Mavericks opened training camp on Friday. Flagg’s comment was aggregated across the internet, with “one more inch” and “taller” graphics populating various social media platforms. “I’m 6’10 with no shoes,” Flagg said. “I was like 6’9 last year. Definitely taller.” This would be quite the growth spurt. Flagg measured at 6’ 7.75” w

    Lamar Jackson and the Ravens took full advantage of terrible Cowboys clock management.

    Tucker Kraft blames Packers fans for boos during Falcons loss: ‘It’s not going to help us win’ The Atlanta Falcons were in a dark place heading into their Week 3 matchup against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. The Falcons were already 0-2, outscored 54-16 across their first two games, and coming off an embarrassing loss to the Carolina Panthers last Sunday that inspired my colleague James Dator to write the artful headline “The Falcons suck so bad they’ve reached new levels of suck.” Th

    NBA’s 8 locks on over/under win totals, including Lakers, Warriors, Bulls, and more (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Let’s give our picks for the NBA preseason over/under win total lines. Parsing through the NBA’s over/under win totals is a meaningful way to establish expectations for every team entering the new season even if you have no interest in gambling. At this point, it would be easy to look back on the San Antonio Spurs and believe their ascent atop the Western Conference was all but preordained last season with Victor Wembanyama, but in reality expectations were pretty meager. The Spurs’ win total wa

    NBA Western Conference rankings 1-15 entering 2026-27 season (opens the original)

For the first time in two decades, there’s an argument to be made that the Eastern Conference is stronger 1-10 heading into the season. The bottom end of the West playoff picture feels a little softer than normal, but that shouldn’t detract from the fact that the top-6 of the conference is absolutely loaded, led by perhaps the two best teams in the NBA.
