Nets vs. Clippers preview: The start of the road trip

Almost had it, but not quite. The Brooklyn Nets had the Boston Celtics on the ropes Friday night, but a late mistake proved costly as they ultimately fell short in double overtime. The L was the team’s fourth in a row. The opponent tonight, amazingly, is back in the playoff chase. A couple months ago, […]

Packers Hire New Defensive Coordinator, Evolution of Caleb Williams, McCarthy-Rodgers Reunion With Steelers? And Other Bears Bullets

Day 7 of the Chicago Bears offseason. I’d rather be preparing for a NFC Championship Game battle against the Seattle Seahawks. Instead, I’ll spend a chunk of my day staring out the window thinking about what could have been. Sigh . The Green Bay Packers hired a new defensive coordinator. And while we’ll probably take a deeper dive into this hire later this week, I wanted to get some initial thoughts regarding Jonathan Gannon’s hire on the board right now while I had a moment: A b...

Found Elvis in a Loaf of Bread: Blackhawks vs. Panthers Preview

The Chicago Blackhawks host the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers on Sunday night at the United Center. The Panthers season has been a bit of a roller coaster: a sluggish start out of the gate put them behind the curve early, they stabilized into something resembling a competent team for a stretch, then dipped again into inconsistency before finally showing some signs of life recently. After going 6-4-0 in their last 10 games and riding a modest two-game win streak — includi...

Blackhawks vs Panthers — Lineups, Broadcast Info, Game Thread

The Blackhawks played a back-to-back in Carolina and at home against Tampa on Thursday-Friday nights and came away with three of four possible points. They got great goaltending in both games, and the defense held up against the two top teams in the Eastern Conference. So, after one day off, the Blackhawks host the two-time defending champion Florida Panthers today. Well… what’s left of them. And they’ll be playing the second half of their own back-to-back; the Panthers needed overtime to...

How Giannis Antetokounmpo’s latest injury affects Heat’s pursuit

One of the biggest stories around the NBA over the last several weeks was Giannis Antetokounmpo’s future with the Milwaukee Bucks. As we wrote in mid-December, the Bucks were making a futile attempt to convince themselves that they were buyers, while Antetokounmpo continued to table any formal trade request. However, that attempt wilted away in […] The post How Giannis Antetokounmpo’s latest injury affects Heat’s pursuit appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .

Digging Deeper Into The Liverpool FC Women’s Win Over Spurs

Finally. After late collapses, injuries galore, and more than a few abject performances, Liverpool have FINALLY gotten their first win in the WSL this season. Winter reinforcements had a big impact on the match as four winter signings were in the lineup against Spurs, each providing a big boost from their performances. Despite the new […]

Comments from the Other Side - Bulls 1/24/26

 I'll chalk that loss up to a double overtime game on the road the night before and getting in at 4 am to Chicago.  They played pretty well in spite of all that.  Jaylen Brown had every reason to take the night off after almost 46 minutes the night before so I respect him for playing.  Bulls fans don't much like their team.  That seems to be true of a lot of teams we play lately.  I love all our Celtics.  My favorites are in bold.  What are yours? &...

Kings Should Be Most Desperate Team To Land Canucks' Center

The Vancouver Canucks are dead last in the NHL and are not going to have a late-season run that gets them back into the playoffs race. They have already at least somewhat committed to a retool/rebuild as Quinn Hughes and Kiefer Sherwood were traded. The Canucks are very banged up and that continues to be a problem with the group they have assembled. It's not going to do them any favours moving forward unless even more is changed. The team desperately needs a rebuild with what is left on the ro...

10 Takeaways from the Celtics last second loss to Bulls

1. Gamed by Kevin Huerter In Game 3 of the 2015 Eastern Conference Finals, Derrick Rose hit a game-winning three at the buzzer to give the Bulls the win and a 2-1 lead in the series. Almost 11 years later, on the day that Rose is getting his #1 jersey retired by the Bulls organization, […]

Devin Vassell’s absence revealed how important he is to the Spurs

The Spurs have gone 8-5 without Devin Vassell. Is Vassell’s absence the main reason for their recent (relative) struggles, or are there other important factors that have been overlooked? Marilyn Dubinski: I wouldn’t say he is THE reason, but it was certainly a contributing factor.  A big problem for a while was all three guards […]

NFC Championship Sunday: Who’s picking the Rams?

Who is picking the Rams to win? At ESPN, Jeremy Fowler, Shane Bowen, and Jason Reid picked the Rams, while seven others went against L.A.. On another ESPN […]
