The Arizona Cardinals have a new regime, likely roster turnover, and a quarterback who may not be ready to begin the 2023 season. Stranger things have happened in recent NFL history. In 2020, the Cincinnati Bengals finished 4-11-1, yet they found themselves in the Super Bowl just one year later. In 2022, the Bengals proved […]

Under former head coach Kliff Kingsbury, the Arizona Cardinals offense ran almost-exclusively from the shotgun, giving it the feel of a college offense. Under new head coach Jonathan Gannon, look for the Arizona Cardinals offense to look dramatically different from what we’ve seen over the previous four seasons. Kingsbury was an “Air Raid” guy, where […]

Over the years, the Orlando Magic have had their fair share of superstars. They hope they have found another in Paolo Banchero.
On this day 30 years ago, however, Shaquille O’Neal became the first player in franchise history to appear in the NBA All-Star Game. Although the Eastern Conference lost to the West in overtime in Salt Lake City, O’Neal had a strong showing in the 135-132 defeat.

The Clippers take yet another shot at addressing their lack of a play-making point guard. After finalizing a contract buyout with the Utah Jazz, 11-year veteran Russell Westbrook is joining the Los Angeles Clippers, according to Adrian Wojnarowski. Prior to the end of the trade deadline, the nine-time All-Star guard was dealt from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Utah Jazz and will now suit up for the Lakers’ crosstown counterparts.

There’s no doubt about it. In the Los Angeles Clippers history, there isn’t much lifting trophies and hanging banners.
In fact, there’s none.
Even after half a decade, three different cities, the Clippers have still yet to make a mark on the NBA’s history book. But what they did do is produce the greatest line of off-the-bench scorers. The players that take over and entirely shift the momentum game. The players that check in on the co...
