Wow, so odds are you're within a mile radius of where my uncle tore his ACL like 50 years ago (and never got it repaired).

4 games is both more than expected and less than it should be, which is about the best you can hope for with this league.

Darnold was also like 17 years old when they drafted him.

There are some tweets reporting a couple playoff contender-ish teams are kicking the tires on bringing Fields as a backup.

I like how the Knicks and Sixers all heard the Gen Xer complaints that the NBA isn’t like it was in the 90s and did their very best to recreate the experience. The Knicks had like four consecutive possessions to hit one of those "oh shit, they're coming back" shots to get within 4-5 and I...
