‘The Silencer’: Kyren Williams puts heart on display as No. 1 running back

Charlotte Edmonds | Friday, December 4, 2020

“ND Kyren Williams I see you hit em with ‘The Silencer’ to close out this game!” A year ago, Kyren Williams was essentially unknown. Now he’s getting tweeted at by LeBron James. A four-star commit from St. Louis, Williams appeared in four games for the Irish last season, showing some promise but joining a long

Zwiller: LeBron James may be the new definition of GOAT

Thomas Zwiller | Wednesday, October 14, 2020

The Latin name for goat is capra aegagrus hircus, a member of the family bovidae, the order artiodactyla, the class mammalia, the phylum chordata — I could go on but I’ll spare you the time.  I believe the classification of ‘goat’ now needs a change. The domain of GOAT (greatest of all time) is now

Zwiller: Make Jimmy Butler Finals MVP

Thomas Zwiller | Monday, October 12, 2020

At the start of the series, the sports world had pretty much given up on the Miami Heat. Draft Kings had the Lakers winning the series 4-2 at around 24%, winning 4-1 at 27% and sweeping the Heat out of the finals at 19%. The Heat’s best shot of winning was going 4-3 in the

Coolican: Heat provide a model for other teams

Liam Coolican | Friday, October 9, 2020

When Lebron James left Miami, Heat president Pat Riley had a plan. James’ departure may have caught him by surprise, but he didn’t show it. Instead of floundering for years, like the Cavaliers did when James departed Cleveland for the first time — and it appears to be happening a second time — the Heat

Smith: Show LeBron a little love

Matt Smith | Friday, October 2, 2020

Amid all of the chaos of 2020, there has been one bit of normalcy that has convinced me this year hasn’t just been some never-ending dream: a LeBron James-led team is in the NBA Finals. After coming into the season as title favorites, James and the Los Angeles Lakers cruised through the Western Conference with

Cook: NBA playoffs finally feel like a changing of the guard

Jamison Cook | Wednesday, September 2, 2020

As an avid NBA fan, I have become used to watching the greatness of this generation of stars. It seems hard to imagine an NBA without LeBron’s chase-down blocks, Steph’s unlimited range, Kawhi’s unwavering demeanor, Kevin Durant’s pull-up threes, Westbrook’s triple-doubles, and Harden’s prolific scoring. But most of these players will retire this decade, and

Yturralde: The NBA has found the perfect form of philanthropy

Inigo Yturralde | Monday, April 6, 2020

The NBA is already one of the most philanthropic sports leagues in the world. Pure charity, giving back to communities and people in need and who love the game of basketball is one of the main motivators for the league’s extensive community outreach projects, but what else is a factor? The NBA does such a

Coolican: The new All-Star Game format was a huge success

Liam Coolican | Wednesday, February 19, 2020

In last week’s Observer Roundtable, while discussing the NBA All-Star Game, I wrote that the it was “nearly unwatchable.” In years past, neither side played any defense whatsoever. Every play ended in either an uncontested dunk or three pointer. It was interesting at first, merely to observe just how offensively talented NBA players are when

Richard: NBA power rankings after trade deadline

Will Richard | Monday, February 10, 2020

With the NBA regular season now over halfway complete and the trade deadline passed,  the league’s hierarchy of teams has been largely established, and the list of teams poised to make a run at the Larry O’Brien Trophy has dwindled. It is worth noting the teams below have not necessarily had the best seasons thus

Adams: Jordan is easily better than LeBron

Hayden Adams | Monday, January 20, 2020

It’s been a question in the making since Sports Illustrated dubbed LeBron “The Chosen One” when he was a junior in high school, since SLAM had him and (gasp) Sebastian Telfair on their cover saying they were “about to take over the world.” The latter was half right. In any case, LeBron turned into the
