Mike Shearer is a senior contributor covering the NBA for FanSided with bylines at Locked On Sports, HoopsHype, Basketball Poetry, RealGM, and more. He's written about the Association full-time for five years and counting. Delivering keen insights with (sometimes groan-worthy) humor, Shearer treats basketball as both a tactical puzzle to solve and an art form worth celebrating. NBA.com told him he was in the top 0.2 percent of League Pass watchers, which makes him wonder what the heck the top 0.1-percenters are doing with their lives.
