I have a basketball resource database I've been working on and will continue to update. Links to sites in the name. NBA, NCAA, WNBA, Misc

Lots of good stuff in here to explore if you like stats, visuals, etc.

Fanduel TV you can steam any of those local games for $20 a month.

Or Nord VPN is like $5 a month and you can use that with a NBA league pass subscription to watch. Just use the VPN to say you are in Seattle for example and then the game is no longer blacked out.

Controversy brewing in Minnesota.

Tic-Tac-Toe game. Make a layup, receive a X or O, run to center court and play your letter.

But does anyone notice anything suspicious here?

I use an app called Snagit by Techsmith to screen capture games on my MacBook to post on here. Been using it since 2017 and I like it for its ease of use, quickness, and how I can manually pick the region of my screen I want to capture so I can get zoomed in more mobile friendly videos for Bluesky
An example of what the Snagit Application looks like.

You have to clear cache and it will work on Google Chrome on a laptop.

On Apple TV, Nord VPN still works for the NBA app to bypass restrictions to watch blacked out games in your area.

$20 a month gets access to both games.

But I can tell it's preseason because I am rusty. A VPN still works on the NBA app. So on my Apple TV using the Nord VPN app I just changed my location to Denver so I can watch the Pacers - Wolves game on NBA League Pass

The worst part of St Louis having no NBA team is that BOTH Memphis Grizzlies and Indiana Pacers games are blacked out.

Both are four hours away from St Louis but I have to pay $20 a month to be able to watch.

I love this YouTube video by Thinking Basketball that shows the evolution of the traveling violation over the decades.

49th overall pick Tyrese Proctor utilizes the rim as an impediment to suppress the blocking ability of Buzelis

Went back and clipped this weird interaction between Vucevic and Allen.

It does appears Allen got Vuc on the wrist during the entry pass here which prompt Vucevic to look at the ref wondering where the call was.

Matas Buzelis fakes the pull-up as it appears he is going to grab the ball with both hands, but instead it's the blow by layup.

Thinking about what Giddey would be like if he operated more like a playmaking center at the elbow. Screening, handoffs, keepers, hitting cutters with his elite stationary passing skills.
