So, let’s see which teams have the best Super Bowl odds headed into Wild Card weekend, courtesy of Fanduel Sportsbook: T-32. New Orleans Saints: ELIMINATED (Last week’s odds: ELIMINATED) (Last week’s ranking: T-32) 1. Seattle […]
Not sure why the Celtics can play so good one night and then play so bad the next. Is it focus or effort or what? Nuggets fans were trashing their coach and Nnaji to start and then at the end both were the best. I'm sure some of the trade Jokic comments were joking but I have to think some were really thinking it. they were talking about how they hate the way the Celtics play because they shoot so many 3's. The Nuggets shot 6 more 3's than the Celtics. Well,...
Yes, you read the headline correctly. The much-maligned 49ers defense, which was gashed on the ground over and over by the Seattle Seahawks and gave up back-breaking third-down conversions, has a better chance on Sunday against the defending Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles. I understand. The Eagles have one of the best running backs in […]

Something is shifting for the Portland Trail Blazers. The group’s latest feat, an inspiring 103-102 win over the Houston Rockets Wednesday night at the Moda Center, made it clear. You could hear it in the M-V-P chants in the fourth quarter that serenaded Portland forward Deni Avdija, prompted by a season-high 41 points. You could […]
In a tough game where the Milwaukee Bucks really took it to the Golden State Warriors, they ultimately went down 120-113. There were some really good stretches, and as usual, some disappointing ones. This result evened the season series between the two sides, with the Bucks taking the first game earlier this season. Read our […]

It’s natural for people to want to outdo themselves when they’ve disappointed observers and evaluators at work. NBA teams are the same and usually come out guns blazing when they have been humbled. The San Antonio Spurs got their turn to right that wrong on Wednesday. Similar records don’t always mean rivals are in the […]
How about a little caffeinated applause for the boys last night, eh? The Blackhawks put boot to [donkey] on the St. Louis Blues last night, putting a touchdown on the board and kicking the extra point for good measure. Most impressively, the Hawks had seven goals from seven different skaters last night — and one of them was not the team’s leader, Tyler Bertuzzi . The depth scoring we’ve been longing for is starting to really show out. Whenever you have a handful of guys with multi-point e...
The Washington Wizards have traded for Trae Young, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported on Wednesday night. This move signifies a crucial turning point in the Wizards’ seemingly endless rebuild that has been going on since the John Wall and Bradley Beal era. Young, the former Atlanta Hawks point guard and four-time All-Star, is a gifted offensive […]

There was an end of an era (error?) in Atlanta on Wednesday, as the Hawks pulled the trigger on a long-rumored trade, ending the Trae Young era by sending him to… [checks notes] …the Washington Wizards in exchange for Corey Kispert and CJ McCollum. No picks going either way. It’s a surreal ending to a […]
The Gonzaga Bulldogs (16-1, 4-0 WCC) will look to build on a nine-game win streak when they host the Santa Clara Broncos (13-4, 4-0 WCC) on January 8, 2026. The Broncos have won four games in a row.

Christian Hammond scored a team-high 21 points (and added two assists and four boards). When is Gonza...

Wali Jones, 83 years old but forever young, is not one of those back-in-my-day guys. Yes, he’s justifiably proud of an 11-year pro career that saw him quarterback a Sixers championship team in 1967 and at different times serve as sidekick on teams featuring Wilt, Moses and Kareem (no last names needed). But he’s not one to give modern-day players […]

The Spurs pulled off a stellar win last night against the Los Angeles Lakers. With both teams playing on the second night of a back-to-back, energy was a factor and tensions were high. There was a lot of Purple and Gold in the sea of Silver & Black, and the sell out crowd was loud. […]

So someone made a request on X to post Duke highlights of Nolan Smith and that wish was granted. When he was at Duke, Smith improved dramatically. Along with Jon Scheyer, he formed one of Duke’s more underrated backcourts. We still talk about the Johnny Dawkins/Tommy Amaker backcourt, the Bobby Hurley/Thomas Hill backcourt and the […]
1. Outplayed in the 4th quarter Going into the fourth quarter, the Celtics were up 82-79 and a solid final quarter could have sealed the victory. Instead, the Nuggets went on a 22-6 to open up an 11-point lead with 4 minutes to go and it felt like the game ended right there. Boston got […]
BOSTON — Jaylen Brown hasn’t had many off nights this season, but Wednesday night against the Denver Nuggets was — for the most part — one of those nights. Impressively, Brown still managed to put up a more-than-respectful respectable stat line of 33 points (14-29 FG), 7 rebounds, and 4 assists. That, on its face, […]

The Houston Rockets fell to the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday night in a close battle that came down to the wire. Following a Kevin Durant miss, Tari Eason had a successful tip-in. However, following an officials’ review, the play was reversed as being after the buzzer, and the win was given to Portland. Here’s […]
