The NFL Honors finalists have been revealed, and there is a significant Seattle Seahawks presence across eight Associated Press awards. Superstar wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is obviously a finalist for Offensive Player of the Year, although the inclusion of MVP contender Drake Maye could significantly hurt his chances of winning. Perhaps that’s a consolation prize […]
On Tuesday night, the Miami Heat improved to a 23-21 record with a win against the Sacramento Kings. As their West Coast road trip continues, they will look to keep it going with a second consecutive victory in Thursday’s matchup versus the 22-22 Portland Trail Blazers.

This is the second matchup of the season between these two teams, with Golden State winning by ten on Christmas Day to start the season […]
We are approximately two weeks away from this season’s Feb. 6 trade deadline. The Sixers have been hovering around the middle of the Eastern Conference’s playoff seeds for most of the season’s first half. They appear good enough to make the postseason, and perhaps avoid the play-in tournament. But they’re certainly not the favorite to […]
Of course, the Knicks broke the skid. It was the Nets on the other end, what did you expect? Here’s a bunch of quotes from the protagonists following a historic trouncing inflicted on New Jersey/Brooklyn. Mike Brown On Wednesday’s historic win over the Nets: “I didn’t know about the record until it was mentioned. But […]
It’s only fitting that the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks are playing for the NFC Championship this year. Both games were among the best in the NFL this year. Both teams are 1 and 2 in DVOA. Both teams have been considered by the media to be the best. The Rams are battle tested […]
a look at what Minnesota can offer
Day 4 of the Chicago Bears offseason. It took all of four days for me to think “the intro part of this should be in bold-face type.” OK, we can dig into Bullets now that we’ve got that out of my system. ICYMI: Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson is up for the AP Coach of the Year award. The loaded field of finalists includes Mike Macdonald (Seahawks), Mike Vrabel (Patriots), Kyle Shanahan (49ers), and Liam Coen (Jaguars). If I had to power rank them based solely on this year’s perform...
The Carolina Hurricanes will look to extend their winning streak to four games on Thursday night when they welcome the Chicago Blackhawks to the Lenovo Center. The Canes are coming off a wildly impressive three-games-in-four-days stretch that saw them pick off Florida, New Jersey and Buffalo in strong fashion. Carolina got two days off after […]
Not a lot of Pacers fans chatting on the game thread. Always good to beat the teams you are supposed to beat. For the most part the Pacers fans didn't trash their own players or the Celtics, so that was nice. I really hate seeing fans trash all their own players. Sad though that they have to cheer for losses. I'm really glad the Celtics didn't go the tanking route. My favorites are in bold. What are yours? we win this one right?...
There are a lot of perks that come with being an NBA player, the money, the lifestyle, and getting paid to play basketball. But one thing you really can’t put a price on is earning the respect of a legend. And that’s exactly where Josh Giddey finds himself right now. The Chicago Bulls guard has not only carved out a major role this season, but he’s also picked up a high-profile admirer in… Allen Iverson! Being endorsed by a former MVP and Hall of Famer isn’t something you stumble into; it...
The Houston Rockets’ third-ranked offensive attack hinges heavily on their ability to outmuscle opponents on the offensive glass. Houston’s 16.1 offensive rebounds pace the league. And their 18.8 second-chance points also leads the league. Unsurprisingly, the Rockets have four players that rank in the top-25 in offensive rebounds, in Steven Adams, Alperen Sengun, Amen Thompson […]
The Seahawks arrive at the NFC Championship riding their most complete performance of the season. The Divisional Round tape against the San Francisco 49ers showed a defense capable of controlling games through structure, discipline, and communication, paired with an offense that dictated terms early and finished drives. But there is an important and uncomfortable reminder […]

The Bulls may play a game in Minnesota tonight, but we’re going Hollywood. Because tonight’s game doubles as an audition for Bulls guards Ayo Dosunmu and Coby White — two prime trade targets for a Minnesota Timberwolves team actively shopping for a point guard. So let’s give them a front-row seat. Time to show them exactly what they’re missing, and let’s talk Bulls basketball. The last time the Bulls and Timberwolves met, it wasn’t pretty. Chicago got its doors blown off in a 35-po...
We are officially just 2 weeks away from the trade deadline! After weeks and weeks of rumors, speculation, and plenty of CelticsBlog articles, we’re getting close to the end. At this point, the agents have played their hands, the teams have signaled their intentions (or not), and the posturing has reached its apex. I’ve never […]
This is the first time in 11 years that the Seattle Seahawks are playing (and hosting) the NFC Championship Game. When looking at the age of many players on the roster, 11 years is roughly half of their lives. Take Nick Emmanwori for example, who is only 21 years old. This means that the last […]
For the third time in four games, the Milwaukee Bucks were blown out by a Western Conference team, losing 122-102 to the defending NBA champions, the Oklahoma City Thunder. Things have tumbled quickly for the Bucks; after winning five of their last seven games, they’ve now dropped four of five. Read our full summary of […]
As the Boston Celtics closed out the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night, Sam Hauser showcased a move rarely seen from the veteran sharpshooter. Hauser used a Neemias Queta screen to cut to the left corner, caught a cross-court inbound from Derrick White, pump-faked, spun right, and sank a mid-range jumper over Indiana’s Pascal Siakam. The […]

The Philadelphia 76ers split their recent home games against the Indiana Pacers and Phoenix Suns. Now, they’ll look to bounce back against one of the tougher opponents on the schedule in the Houston Rockets. Houston has put together a unique and dynamic roster. They added a marquee name in Kevin Durant, who is putting up […]

I’ve had a ton of fun so far this season covering Men’s Nebrasketball. I said at the beginning of the season that they would finish 19-12, going 9-11 in the Big Ten. I’ve successfully hit the number of wins, but I’m nowhere close to the overall record or conference record. If you would have told […]
When things are going the way they’ve been going for the Knicks, can you ever definitively say you’re confident in them to win, regardless of opponent? Yes, on paper, it was more likely the Knicks (26-18) would embarrass the Nets (12-30) by biblical margins than it was for them to manage to lose, especially when […]
