The Cleveland Cavaliers erased an early 23-point first-quarter deficit, but they weren’t able to complete the comeback.

The Lakers have a problem. It’s a LeBron James problem. Well, it’s also a Luka Doncic problem. Really, it’s an Austin Reaves problem, too. When LA’s three best players are on the floor together, they’re a -8.8 net rating. They’ve played just eleven games together and sure, sport an 8-3 record, but at their core, […]

A blizzard is coming to the Delaware Valley. Fitting since the Sixers’ season feels like it could be snowballing. After the team suffered an embarrassing loss to the lowly New Orleans Pelicans Saturday, they’ll travel to Minnesota (because that travel schedule makes sense) to take on the Timberwolves Sunday night — and they’ll do so […]
A turning point for the Los Angeles Rams during the 2025 NFL season came in Week 16 against the Seattle Seahawks.

It’s been an interesting year for Sean McVay. Sometimes accepting reality can be difficult, but McVay has taken “refuse to lose” somewhat literally. He’s had a seemingly impossible time accepting the Seattle Seahawks victories in the playoffs and Week 16, calling the Seahawks lucky after the NFC Championship Game. Now, the Los Angeles Rams are […]
NBA Hall-of-Fame coach Phil Jackson once said that for a team to be considered an “elite” championship contender, they must win 40 games in the regular season before they lose 20. On Saturday night, the San Antonio Spurs became the third team to meet that criteria in the 2025-26 season. The Oklahoma City Thunder and […]
The Portland Trail Blazers are heading on the road for the first time after the NBA All-Star Break to face the Phoenix Suns.

On Saturday in Los Angeles, Jayson Tatum did what he has done for weeks now: he said something that gave us pretty much nothing in the way of new information. He hasn’t practiced with the team since his Maine session a week ago. The photos from San Francisco were — Tatum’s words — an “optional […]

Spears at Andscape. “[My agent] Rich [Paul] had that conversation with […]
There is still a lot to happen before April’s NFL Draft. The NFL combine and free agency will significantly reshape the stocks and team needs around the league — including the Seattle Seahawks.
