The NCAA men’s basketball championships are a strange tournament, one where excitement seems to move in an inverse direction, contrary to the nature of typical elimination tournaments. Other […]

Chris Paul Ignites “Real” Playoff Basketball
Chris Paul crossed over at the top of the three-point arc, took five aggressive dribbles, and attacked the right side of the lane.
