And the GOTM (greatest of the moment) is favored to win the Michael Jordan trophy for the third consecutive time, something even the GOAT didn't do.

In hindsight, that was purely voters being tired of MJ winning it and giving it to someone else. There's no full season MJ played for the Bulls save his rookie season that he wasn't the league MVP. Even Barkley who was one of those beneificiaries said as much.

Ugh, the dudes who own the Browns are now part owners of the Bucks:

Can't say I'm enthused about the ownership group of one of the most poorly run NFL teams horning in on "my" team.  The last decade of Cleveland football does not fill one with confidence in this new ownership.

Lebron James is out a few weeks with a foot injury.

AD needs to step up or Lakers won't even make the play in game.

As long as they remain minority owners without much say in day to day operations of the team, they should be fine. But if the Haslams ever gain a controlling stake, look out.

For the first time since 1998, the Cleveland Cavaliers have clinched a playoff spot with a roster that did not include Lebron James.

With the Mavericks stuck in 11th place, if this holds up the rest of the way, would it be the first time all three Texas teams missed the playoffs in the same season? The Rockets and Spurs are obviously heading for the draft lottery, but Dallas is having the most disappointing season so far.

On the flip side, it looks like all four California teams are going to be in the postseason, which also looks like a first, but let's look into that just to be sure.

About time: The Sacremento Kings have finally ended the longest active playoff drought in the big four North American sports!

16 years is a crazy playoff drought in a league where over half the teams make it every year. That's a record that may never be topped, especially now that the NBA has added the play-in round which counts as playoffs IMO.

Officially the NBA does not count the play-in round as the playoffs.

Very disappointing for the Mavericks, but I still think they will make the play-in over the Thunder. The problem is that they will still be the 9 or 10 seed facing a tough road to the actual playoffs.

That's what they get for signing the flat-earther. He is a team malignant tumor.
