2026/01/20

This week on Go Team Score Points, we tackle a little bit of everything: a sprawling NCAA points-shaving scandal with international roots, a genuinely heartwarming Kyle Lowry moment in Toronto, and why the Nuggets might actually be terrifying even without Nikola Jokić. We break down Nuggets vs. Pelicans from New Orleans (with mostly empty seats and surprisingly great announcers), marvel at Peyton Watson’s rise, wonder how NBA moving expenses really work, cringe at in-arena fan cams, and ask the

The Cavs Love Fest vs. the Suns JV Offense

2026/01/09

Watching the Cavs–Suns game felt less like a neutral broadcast and more like two proud parents cheering from the stands. Brad Daugherty and John Michael talked about the Cavs with pure affection, even when things got sloppy—like Merrill passing the ball directly to a Suns player. Meanwhile, Phoenix’s offense looked brutal: one guy tries, loses it, another guy tries, loses it, kick it out for a three… brick. Eventually the Cavs grab it, push it to Mobley, and score. The announcers called it “the

They get nerdy about free throws, the bonus, and whether fouling is actually good now, react to an internet comment, and spiral into a surprisingly serious debate about why NBA paint
