Are you having fun? Good for you. I’m not having fun. I hate it here. (Not TheDreamShake. I love it here.) The Rockets just have not felt fun in 2025-26. Consider this a safe space for complaining. There should be no Wizards fans in our ranks to point out that it could be worse. Realistically, […]

The Dallas Mavericks are set to face off against the Denver Nuggets on National TV, which means it’s time to dive into our MMBets Game of the Week. The Mavericks are fresh off of a clutch win against the Brooklyn Nets on Monday. Meanwhile, the Nuggets are on the second leg of a road back-to-back, […]
Tonight’s Cavs vs 76ers matchup at Xfinity Mobile Arena is one of the best games on the schedule this week. Philadelphia has been solid in the East all year, but Cleveland already proved they can handle this matchup after putting up 132 points in a double-digit win over the Sixers back in November. With both teams fighting for a top-four seed, this feels like a potential first-round playoff preview between two teams desperate to prove they belong in the Eastern Conference title conversation. S...

There are eight teams left in the 2026 NFL playoffs. Why we’ve never called this the Elite Eight I’m not sure. Because the talent pool is certainly elite. There are 26 All-Pro players on the remaining postseason teams. 26 All-Pros, out of 62 winners. That’s nearly 50% of the field. Talent matters. Of those 26, […]
Up next in the Brew Hoop Bucks trade candidate series is Michael Porter Jr., arguably the best player available on the market—and especially in terms of fit for the Milwaukee Bucks. Porter’s trade candidacy has been well documented, with the The Stein Line’s Jake Fischer and The Athletic’s Sam Amick linking him with the Bucks, […]
Welcome back to the transfer portal team of the week! This is our first true weekly edition of the basketball season, with the top 15 transfers of the week being honored. The format will be a little different than the football counterpart, with only one player being in the spotlight each week. The full “Team […]
How many times are we going to have to sit through a Patrick Williams disasterclass? The Chicago Bulls just dropped a brutal one to the Houston Rockets last night — a game that was contested right down to the wire. Now they’re hopping on a plane back to Chicago to get ready for another matchup, this time against the Utah Jazz. I have absolutely no confidence in this being a “gimme,” but I do know one thing: it should be entertaining. Let’s talk Bulls basketball. A tough night ...

One of the worst-kept secrets in the NBA is that the Lakers are searching for a two-way wing ahead of the Feb. 5 trade deadline. However, they reportedly aren’t willing to sacrifice the financial flexibility that could await them this offseason unless they can “acquire a real needle-mover at the position,” according to longtime NBA […]
No need to worry about whether or not the Edmonton Oilers can reach three consecutive wins. This time, the winning streak ended at one. After picking up a commanding 4-1 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Monday, the Oilers dropped the second leg of their back-to-back on Tuesday night against the Nashville Predators, falling 4-3…
The Seattle Seahawks–San Francisco 49ers rivalry adds another postseason chapter in the NFC Divisional Round, and the context can be very different from the lifeless performance San Francisco showed against Seattle in Week 18. In the Wild Card Round, Kyle Shanahan has adjusted both his offense and the way he protects his defense — something […]
a couple of role players, not typically mentioned in trade rumors, may actually get the Bulls a trade return
The Vancouver Canucks have lost eight games in a row and 10 of their last 111. The team sits dead last in the league and already traded away their franchise player in Quinn Hughes. There is no reason to think that more moves aren't coming soon with the way things are going. One of the biggest, even the biggest piece that the Canucks can trade is Kiefer Sherwood. David Pagnotta said, "Dallas has been in on it. Boston, Minnesota even prior to the Quinn Hughes move. There are others." There is no...
Another L on the board. The Brooklyn Nets made a trip to Texas to take on the Dallas Mavericks on Monday night. Brooklyn put up a fight, but Dallas was too much to handle as they handed Brooklyn their fourth consecutive loss. Of the league’s 14 lottery teams, the Nets current streak is the longest. […]
The Jazz miraculously put an end to their ridicule of a 55-point loss by squashing Donovan Mitchell and the Cleveland Cavaliers on the road. Now they’re headed to the Windy City of Chicago looking for a rare win in the United Center — an accomplishment they’ve only claimed once in the past four years. Now, […]
The Bucks weren’t able to rebound after their loss to the Nuggets, dropping their second game in a row, this time to the Timberwolves in blowout fashion, 139-106 (with no Rudy Gobert or Anthony Edwards!). Milwaukee goes the year without getting a win against Minnesota. The last time the Bucks were swept by the Timberwolves […]

Wild card weekend did not disappoint for the first three games as the Rams-Panthers, Packers-Bears, Bills-Jaguars, and 49ers-Eagles all delivered one score games coming down to the final possession. The divisional round is now set with the Bills-Broncos and 49ers-Seahawks playing on Saturday. On Sunday, the Texans-Patriots and Rams-Bears will play for their opportunity to […]
A four-time All-Star point guard ostensibly in his prime has been moved midseason and the NBA’s Feb. 5 trade deadline is just a hair over three weeks away, but that short-term transactional stuff almost feels like an afterthought. That’s because the league is currently rife with drama among some of its biggest names, drama that might not get resolved until the offseason. Here’s the latest from around the NBA — starting with the league’s glamor franchise, the Los Angeles Lakers. ...
With the NBA Trade Deadline less than a month away, massive questions about the Dallas Mavericks roster will have to be answered. With the season in a tailspin, it is imperative that the Mavericks move quickly to set up the future and build around Cooper Flagg. Obviously there are players who aren’t available, and more […]
Good morning! The Red Sox don’t have a third baseman, but they do have two of the best left-handed pitching prospects in baseball. MLB Pipeline put both Payteon Tolle and Connelly Early on their top-10 list: That’s Tolle in the number two slot, just behind Miami’s Thomas White, and Connelly Early landing at number eight. […]
Saturday night is the rubber match between the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks. Following a loss in Week 18 to Seattle, the Seahawks are well rested off their bye week, while the 49ers left Philadelphia with a hard-fought victory. Unfortunately, the win came at a high cost, with the loss of George Kittle, who […]
On Monday night in Philadelphia, Tampa Bay center Brayden Point suffered a right knee injury and needed help getting off the ice. The scene wasn’t great for Jon Cooper because… Point it not only one of the more important players on his Lightning roster, but he’s also supposed to play for Cooper with Canada’s Olympic team. Reports on Tuesday are that the injury is “not good.” Jon Cooper on Brayden Point. “We avoided the worst case scenario. His season is not over. But he is week to week”...
