Every single fan of every single team dreams of winning the championship, some of those dreams more realistic than others, but only one set of fans get to see that come to be each year.
It was a season spent jumping between the active roster and the practice squad but Paul Lasike has done things this season that no New Zealander has ever done before.
You know, it’s funny how we use All Star selections as one of the ways we judge a player’s legacy when the All Star process itself is such a mess.
Some games are won with defensive plays, others with old fashioned offensive mastery. All games are won with a little bit of hustle, just look at Steven Adams.
This probably isn’t gonna be The Year for the Breakers. They’ve had a few of those in the past but it’s hard to imagine another one in 2017.
Russell Westbrook again tries to hijack Steven Adams' weekly but Ol' Funaki still had a few shining moments... like putting Hassan Whiteside on a poster and into a piggyback.
Well, here we are. The final week of the regular season... and a couple of these games still matter. Most of them don't but a couple do, here we go...
The Breakers have signed a new import to cover the injuries to Webster and Abercrombie, it's their last trump card and he's gonna need a bit of help.

The Breakers sit at 7-9, one win off the foot of the table and they’ve lost five of their last six. Across that stretch they’ve given up a lot of points. Like, A LOT of points.
From Jets misery to Le'Veon's goons to Cam Newton's tie to a helluva lot of playoff inmplications, get the lowdown with another week of fiesty NFL picks.
Rolled ankles can slow him down but no injury appears able to stop Steven Adams, who only played one quarter against the Pelicans due to that knock and yet he backed it up to start the very next night.

A career high in points and a bunch of double-figure outings that followed, looks like Steven Adams is really starting to hit them straps.
Vontaze Burfict continues to work the dark arts on the gridiron while Aretha Franklin showed up to bless us all on Thanksgiving with an anthem rendition that not even Colin Kaepernick could sit down through.
