After a few days off, NBA basketball is back. The Brooklyn Nets were off for NBA festivities last weekend and return to action hoping to speed through the rest of the regular season. When we last saw them, they blew an 18 point lead and lost to the Indiana Pacers on February 12. The opponent […]
The Celtics impressive regular season has been a revelation. I think it is safe to say that a lot of people have earned an extra level of respect this season, starting with Jaylen Brown, Joe Mazzulla, and even Brad Stevens. All of that is wonderful, but this season will largely be remembered by what happens […]
In a three-team trade with the Suns and the Bulls at the NBA trade deadline, the Milwaukee Bucks acquired forward Ousmane Dieng, jettisoning Amir Coffey and Cole Anthony.

It was a first half to remember for the Celtics, as they exceeded expectations en route to a 35-19 record and the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. While it was certainly a strong start, what happens the rest of the way will ultimately dictate how this season is remembered. With that in mind, […]
As the All-Star confetti settles, the Minnesota Timberwolves find themselves in a place that feels… familiar. The sixth seed. If you’re a Wolves fan, that number probably triggers two completely different emotions at once. On one hand, last year’s sixth seed turned into a Western Conference Finals run. On the other, that path was sprinkled […]
Referees and match officials have been in the spotlight once again this week after some controversial decisions in Barcelona’s defeats to Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey and Girona in La Liga. Yet it’s been happening all season long and not just in La Liga. Games across Europe are often being overshadowed by big […]
NFL owners are notoriously sensitive to embarrassment. Nothing like a few billion dollars to make folks squeamish about appearing bad in the public eye. Which is why the Seattle Seahawks, en route to their second Super Bowl victory, ended up leaving a slew of job openings in their wake. This piece began as a thank […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers have had incredible success with the Donovan Mitchell and James Harden pairing through three games. The fourth game will present a new challenge with Evan Mobley returning to the lineup on Thursday against the Brooklyn Nets. Harden has often thrived in predictable and perfectly spaced lineups. Adding a second big onto the […]
The Celtics have signed Dalano Banton to a ten-day contract, HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto first reported. Banton returns to Boston after spending most of the past two years with the Portland Trail Blazers.

The Alabama baseball team squeaked out a 2-1 win over the Alabama State Hornets on Wednesday afternoon at Sewell-Thomas Field.

As first reported by Second City Hockey, the Olympics continue across the pond this week, which means we’re still without any Blackhawks hockey to discuss. Astute observers of this website will notice that we’ve already had some prospect updates run this week and we’ll finish our tour of the hockey world by the end of it.

The Celtics have a treat coming out of All-Star break: a four-game west coast swing that includes games at the Warriors, Lakers, Suns and Nuggets and a back-to-back. Boston is set to face four teams that if the playoffs started today, would all be participating. They all present different issues. The Warriors will be without […]
In sports, marriages, and baby juggling, sometimes the third time’s a charm. After losing to them twice this season, by a combined 69 points, the very determined Knicks (35*-20) host the Detroit Pistons (40-13) at Madison Square Garden tonight. Gluttons for punishment? We think not! Both teams are coming in hot for this potential playoff […]
The 2025 Minnesota Vikings fell a game short of the playoffs. The team never quite felt right all season, and the losses quickly stacked up. Injuries certainly played a major role in the team’s struggles. J.J. McCarthy was unable to stay on the field, and offensive line injuries were a consistent problem throughout the year. […]

They begin by hosting the Atlanta Hawks […]
The Dallas Mavericks fully leaned into a new era for the organization this season after hearing the calls from MFFLs everywhere — first, by firing general manager Nico Harrison; and next, severing ties to the major connection to the Luka Doncic trade by moving Anthony Davis. The trade deadline reset the books for the future […]
As we enter the home stretch of the 2025-26 NBA season, there’s no denying that it’s been a topsy-turvy couple of months for the Atlanta Hawks.

It’s election season in Barcelona and presidential candidates are doing their best to stand out from the crowd.

The Dallas Mavericks (19-35) have sharply fallen out of the play-in race, seven games behind the 10th-place Los Angeles Clippers in the West.
