Hornets have won 6 straight games by 15+ points, the longest streak by any team since the 2017-18 Warriors.

It's tied for the 2nd-longest streak in NBA history.

maybe my favorite blazers stat:

after tonight, blazers are now 20-8 when they shoot 33% or better from 3PT. a .714 win percentage.

only 6 teams are better when they make at least a third of their 3s: DET, OKC, BOS, SAS, NYK, CLE. that's it.

From Pews to Playoffs: The Unlikely Mount Airy Church Powering 5 Million Daily Sports Stats Searches Sports Reference, the world’s go-to stats hub, quietly operates from a Mount Airy church, under founder Sean Forman’s data-driven leadership.

"Most sports fans know Sports Reference as the internet’s definitive home for stats... What far fewer know, however, is that this global, sports-data powerhouse operates not from Manhattan or Silicon Valley, but from a nondescript office at Summit Presbyterian Church in Mount Airy."

Many are talking about Joe Flacco throwing for the most yds in a game (470) by a player age 40+. This is cool, but not as interesting as Lou Groza who has thrown for the fewest yds (-7) in a game at age 40+.

Shohei Ohtani Just Pulled Off His Wildest Feat in, uh, At Least 10 Days Ohtani scared his opponents more than Barry Bonds ever did.

It's hard to have anything new to say about Shohei Ohtani, but I think I got something after spending 30 minutes in @stathead.com search last night: The Blue Jays were more scared of Ohtani last night than any team's ever been of any hitter (including Barry Bonds) slate.com/culture/2025...
