Arguably the most crushing defeat in Stripes history. Gotta feel for their fans and what they've been through.

Update: This is AMAZING

No past or present Grizzlies in this game, but pretty cool to see JB and Darko both out there.

🏒 Obviously the correct outcome to root for here is Draisaitl hat trick in an 11-3 USA win 🏒

HA! Terrible swiffering by the hated Swedes and we now have a commanding lead!
Alright USA, let's outcurl these assholes!

Important content for some of us. We need to explain some things to Jalen Brunson.

"Where would you say the cut off of New Jersey is?"

Dylan Harper had to ask the hard-hitting questions about his home state of New Jersey to fellow Jersey-born Knicks players, Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson 😂

Hawks game against Milwaukee on Mar 14 is getting the boot from national TV on Amazon so they can show the mighty Hornets against San Antonio. Atlanta game time unchanged. Adjust your plans accordingly.

LAX is an improper airport.
SFO is a proper airport. Might be the one megahub I prefer to ATL.

Ending on a #Quack2 is exactly what this dunk contest deserved.
February 15, 2026 at 12:46 AM
Has anyone ended up in concussion protocol as a result of the dunk contest before? Asking for a friend.

Just need Summer League for the triple
The NBA Cup... Shooting Stars... The Knicks are a title away from the treble this season.

Feel like we are much closer to a Team Wisconsin than a Team Duke with this group.
Up next, the Shooting Stars competition, starring proud Duke alumnus Jalen Johnson representing "Team Cameron"
