The holiday season is officially upon us as the calendar flips to December and the Hawks are taking a trip out west for the next week, kicking off a stretch of four road games in six days on Tuesday night when they face the Vegas Golden Knights.

He is the Heat’s leading scorer, and has provided […] The post Clippers were shown firsthand just how lopsided their Norman Powell trade really was appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .

Yes, we all know the game result was an unmitigated disaster. But Steve did some amazing work where the scarlet and cream of Nebraska against the yellow and black of Iowa really made the uniform colors pop in the shots below.

Mikal Bridges’ inaugural season as a member of the New York Knicks was disappointing in a lot of different ways. Bridges had a few bright spots highlighted by his Christmas Day explosion and the pair of game-winning defensive plays he made against the Celtics in the second round of the playoffs.

The Celtics will be fully healthy (minus Jayson Tatum) when they face the New York Knicks on Tuesday night at TD Garden. Derrick White (right calf contusion) and Neemias Queta (left ankle sprain) both missed Sunday’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers and were listed as probable for Tuesday’s game. But on Tuesday morning, the Celtics […]

I think it’s safe to say that the vast majority of Bucks fans are fed up with the underachievement that’s defined this year’s squad and that we’ve seen at times during Doc Rivers’ tenure. Given the situation when he was hired, there was an argument for bringing him on: the locker room had turned on […]

Let’s make this clear right up front: the Mavericks are objectively not a good team right now. They are 7-15 and in sole possession of 12th place in a Western Conference that is actually facing a down year relative to recent seasons. They are 23rd in net-rating according to Cleaning the Glass, and they are […]

DraftKings’ King of the Court promotion gives you a different way to evaluate an NBA slate because the entire contest revolves around one question. Which player will finish the night with the highest combined total of points, rebounds, and assists across all games. You are not competing through a lineup build. You are not stacking games. You are simply choosing the one player who posts the biggest PRA number. DraftKings splits a large bonus bet prize pool among everyone who picks the corr...

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald kicked off his weekly press conference with a big smile, a relevant joke or two, let us know his one-year-old son is now walking (is that normal?) and then got to it: “Are we ready?” Informative, decisive, and succinct, Coach Mike spent nearly 20 minutes with the hungry scribes […]
