 The Oklahoma City Thunder were dominant for about 47 minutes of last night's game one of the 2025 NBA Finals. The only problem? An NBA basketball game is 48 minutes.
Since 1971, teams were 0-182 when trailing by 9+ points in the final three minutes of an NBA Finals game. Until last night. Statistically almost impossible, the Indiana Pacers somehow managed to take game one on Tyrese Haliburton's jumper with a second to play. Luck? Destiny? You can call it what you want to. What's not in question is Tyrese Haliburton's meteoric rise to superstardom. Today, we take a look at how Tyrese stole the spotlight. Tags:
 I recently celebrated my 41st birthday. At this point in my life, "celebrate" may not be the right word, but you get the point.
With three young children, a doctor-wife who takes call, and a full-time day job, the days are long and the years, I guess they say they're short. Personal time for me is precious; time that is often hindered by the amount of sitting, crawling, and bending I do on a daily basis to keep this family-engine churning. Don't get me wrong: I'm in good shape, but my pattern of movement has changed significantly. Ten years ago, I could sit at a desk all day, then go run five miles or play full-court basketball for hours on end without ever having to think about it. Today, not so much. Tags:
