It's a great day whenever the Warriors lose.

We have a ballgame between OKC and GS. Didn't look like it earlier but this finish should be amazing.

I'm a basketball sicko!

Q: Who has the largest point differential through 21 games in NBA history?

A: The 2025-26 Oklahoma City Thunder. +325 and +15.5 per game.

We need to start getting comfortable with the fact that this is an all-time great team in the making.

No Hartenstein, Caruso, Dort, Curry. Warriors-Thunder fans staying up for some late night hoops on NBC. Maybe no Butler, Green

At least we have SGA playing.

Translation: No he won't
GM John Lynch was asked on @KNBR whether it was realistic that Brandon Aiyuk could play for the 49ers this season. "Realistic? I'm not sure," Lynch said. "Hopeful."

Out of all the departures for the Republic this offseason, this one is the most consequential. Hopefully Wilton Rancheria has someone in mind to take Dunivant’s place because those are some pretty big shoes to fill.
🔵 Sources: NYCFC will name Todd Dunivant their next CSO.

Dunivant has been GM of Sacramento Republic since 2018. Also club president. He won five MLS Cups during 13-year playing career.

Dunivant inherits a strong NYCFC squad. www.nytimes.com/athletic/685...

A defining chapter in Republic FC’s history has closed. As first reported by Tom Bogert of The Athletic, Todd Dunivant will leave the Sacramento to become Chief Soccer Officer at New York City FC, ending a tenure that reshaped the trajectory of the organization.

Keon Ellis didn't score, but was +9 in six minutes in a game the Kings lost by eight points.

Good things happen when Ellis is on the floor and I don't get why he doesn't play more. It's irrationally silly at this point.

@willofthepeople.bsky.social, @tonyxypteras.bsky.social, and Jerry are the best on the podcast.
Well I know @thekingsherald.bsky.social Podcast doesn't pull punches, definitely recommend that one if you don't listen and want to hear them actually discuss the team as-is. Plus, Jerry Reynolds!
December 1, 2025 at 6:23 AM
Keon Ellis only played 6 minutes in this game!? Why? We will not know because of this soft ass Sacramento media won't ask the tough questions.

Majority of the media here are friends with Doug Christie.

The NBA team average for 3PT FG attempts in a game is 37.3

Sacramento, which entered the night ranked 29th in 3PT FG attempts per game (31.1), attempted only eight triples in the first half.

That has to change.

Heading into the bye week on a 3-game win streak and 9-4 for the season.

- Special teams was special
- Defense made big plays

And the NFC West is still in the play for the taking. #FTTB ❤️💛

You want the 12 BEST teams right now, not the best teams from week 1. And Notre Dame is one of those twelve best teams. #GoIrish ☘️
