In unsurprising news, Nick Young put his foot in his mouth again. The journeyman wing recently responded to NCAA legend and WNBA superstar Sabrina Ionescu’s criticism and viral photo/video displaying the embarrassing disparity between men’s and women’s basketball players in the NCAA tournament bubble: Nick Young calls out women’s basketball: ‘Man y’all not bringing in […]

Grizzlies star Ja Morant must really love embarrassing Draymond Green. The sophomore stud just put Golden State’s best interior defender in the blender: wow. pic.twitter.com/BBZFL8wxc1 — Memphis Grizzlies (@memgrizz) March 20, 2021 Morant, who is just one year removed from almost winning the Rookie of the Year award, has already made a name for himself […]

Perhaps there is a future in Houston. If nothing else, there’s at least a hum of fun and excitement in the city for the Houston Rockets, especially after a brilliant play from John Wall and Christian Wood. Here’s the clip of Wall finding Wood from behind with an epic pass: Christian Wood in the first […]

While the opening weekend of NCAA March Madness has gotten off to a rip-roaring start (nice try, Buckeyes), upsets and barn burners aren’t the only storylines that are getting attention from the various tournament bubbles. New York Liberty wunderkind and NCAA Women’s Basketball veteran Sabrina Ionescu tweeted the following on Thursday: Women’s @NCAA bubble weight […]

If you’ve ever played darts with someone that doesn’t know how to play darts, then you can relate to the Houston Texans. In a seemingly positive, but strange move, the Texans have reportedly just signed RB Phillip Lindsay, per Ian Rapoport: The #Texans have added a Pro Bowler: They are signing former #Broncos RB Phillip […]

Point guard Dennis Schroder of the Los Angeles Lakers is brutally honest. If you have any doubts about that fact, ask Dwight Howard and Mike Budenholzer about his time on the Hawks. Or recall what Dennis Schroder said about expecting to start when he was traded to Los Angeles from the Thunder. Dennis Schroder is […]

Splash. That word should bring fear and PTSD symptoms to any NBA team not named the Golden State Warriors. Luckily for them, they have enjoyed the luxury of not having to hear it for the past couple of years. Stephen Curry was injured, Kevin Durant left, then Klay Thompson was injured, then Klay was injured […]

Purdue fans can breathe much easier now. Boston Celtics head coach Brad Stevens has recently been featured on sports headlines speculating about rumors linking him to Indiana University. In response to the rumors, Brad Stevens responded: Stevens says he was trying to be polite in how he addressed this situation the other day, but firmly […]

March Madness is here. Let’s continue our NCAA odds series by making a Winthrop-Villanova prediction for this incredible March Madness game. And of all the barn burners that we are bound to get over the course of just this first weekend, the matchup between the Winthrop Eagles and the Villanova Wildcats will be one of the […]

You know, there are just some teams that must really hate Selection Sunday. Let’s break down how the Colgate Raiders match up against the Arkansas Razorbacks in this preview, odds, and prediction. By all accounts, the entire purpose of a tournament’s structure is to make sure that the best teams go the farthest in the […]

2020 was a mixed bag for the Pittsburgh Steelers. 2020 was also a mixed bag in the same way for their young wide receiver stud, Juju Smith-Schuster. On one hand, Pittsburgh started off in the limelight, on both sides of the ball. Juju had his first big chance to shine as a primary option. On the […]

Memo to the Houston Rockets: KEEP CHRISTIAN WOOD. You have him on contract until 2022-2023, he is the most productive player on your roster that’s not overpaid, and he’s entering into his prime. Oladipo, Wall, and Gordon are overpriced, and with a young core forming in Wood and Porter Jr., it’s time to commit to […]

After nearly a decade of media silence on the subject, Tampa Bay tight end and former New England Patriots star Rob Gronkowski offered his first public words on former teammate Aaron Hernandez. His thoughts were shared on a recent episode of Kyle Brandt’s podcast, 10 Questions with Kyle Brandt: “I was definitely shook.” I appreciate Rob […]

If there are two words to describe Brooklyn Nets general manager Sean Marks, they are: Galaxy. Brain. To recap: when then-owner Mikhail Prokhorov hired him in 2016, Sean Marks was saddled with a, to put it lightly, less than stellar roster. Who could have predicted that in under five years, Marks would turn Anthony Bennett, […]

Someone needs to get Bill Belichick one of those fancy cash guns. New England’s offseason shopping spree continues with the signing of Dolphins linebacker Kyle Van Noy, who seems very happy to come back to Foxborough and wear a Patriots uniform again. We backkkk!!! #patsnation #LFG #personal pic.twitter.com/wGoj5FTM4z — Kyle Van Noy (@KVN_03) March 18, 2021 […]

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr recently offered his thoughts and sympathy to the victims and family members of the deadly shooting in Atlanta on Tuesday evening in a powerful series of tweets. My heart goes out to the victims and surviving family members of the shootings in Atlanta yesterday.Once again our country faces […]

It’s funny how quickly the world can turn on someone. Lives can change in the course of less than a year. Dreams are made, hopes are shattered. Such is the case of the Golden State Warriors. Flashback to just two years ago and the Warriors were on top of the basketball world. They had the […]

Super Bowl champion and Pro Bowl corner Tramon Williams announced his retirement from the NFL after a long and prosperous 14-year career: Long-time #Packers CB Tramon Williams retires from the #NFL https://t.co/JKOP4ZyQtU — Dov Kleiman (@NFL_DovKleiman) March 16, 2021 Williams started his career as an unheralded and undrafted free agent for Houston in 2006 before […]

So … how ’bout dem Cowboys!? No, seriously. How about them? Or, more accurately, what about them? Arguably the most talented team on paper in the NFC East whimpered to a 6-10 record this last season despite their vaunted receiving corps, and if not for two last-minute miracles against the New York Giants and Atlanta Falcons […]

So much for that inside-out combo with Drummond, huh? Going into this season, it was hard to predict that the jerseys would only be the second-ugliest thing about the Cavs. And now, in retrospect, those don’t look half bad. Because, for whatever reason, the Cavaliers are paying a king’s ransom for Kevin Love and Andre […]

Bill Belichick be shopping in NFL free agency. He has instantly reloaded New England’s air weapons (Jonnu Smith, Nelson Agholor, Kendrick Bourne) and their pass-rushing attack (Matt Judon). Fun fact, Hunter Henry would have made this list, but he got signed while this was being written. In a word, this NFL free-agent class is deep, and teams […]

Well, if it wasn’t clear before, it’s certainly clear now: the Golden State Warriors need Klay Thompson. Now, let’s be clear here: Golden State only goes as far as Stephen Curry takes them. No doubt they would be right back in the basement, gunning for a second-straight top-five pick this draft if it wasn’t for […]

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees has finally hung up his cleats after 20 seasons in the NFL, and he will go down as the all-time leader in career completions, percentage, and yardage. And in his absence, he leaves a gaping hole in the New Orleans Saints’ roster. In Brees, the Saints are losing arguably […]

You’ve got to feel sorry for John Wall. His career trajectory looks like the craziest rollercoaster of all time. And it looks like it might be going downhill even further with some troubling news from Yahoo! Sports insider Chris Haynes. According to Haynes, Wall is expected to get his knee scoped after suffering from a […]

It’s a battle of the young point guard phenoms as the Sacramento Kings continue their East Coast road trip. The Kings are looking to come back after a drubbing courtesy of the Atlanta Hawks, while the Hornets will be attempting to stay in the playoff hunt and add to their three-game winning streak. It’s time […]

March is a beautiful time of year, folks. The weather gets warmer, the clocks give us all an extra hour of sleep one weekend, St. Patrick’s Day is St. Patrick’s Day…And starting with Selection Sunday, college basketball goes bananas. It’s March Madness time, baby, and it’s back. The teams are picked, the first weekend is […]

On Monday, NFL Insider Adam Schefter floated the possibility of Cleveland Browns star Odell Beckham, Jr. being traded to Tampa Bay on ESPN’s Get Up!. Rumors have been circling OBJ and Cleveland ever since he went down with his season-ending ACL tear, and are now reaching an absolute fever pitch with this latest speculation. After […]

Oof. The past few years have not been kind to Houston Rockets guard John Wall. We are only three years and change removed from the 2017 Eastern Conference Semi-Finals, where John Wall seemed to all the world like the spearhead that the Washington Wizards would take to the top of the league. A driving force […]

Credit Sean Marks. Leading up to last season, the Brooklyn Nets’ GM had built up a substantial reputation for making savvy deals and landing absolute underrated bargains. He was essentially the NBA’s version of a real estate flipper: sure, the house looks ugly, but you know that Sean Marks would be able to give it […]

If you haven’t heard of Cade Cunningham then you haven’t kept up with college basketball over this past year. Don’t worry college basketball got hit hard by COVID, and thus the ratings have been way down. Don’t tell that to Oklahoma State’s Cade Cunningham. Just a few months ahead of the NBA Draft, he is expected […]

If there is one thing that NBA Eastern Conference contenders don’t need this close to the postseason, it is an angry and motivated Philadelphia 76ers team. After Friday’s blowout 127-100 win against the hapless Washington Wizards, Sixers veteran Tobias Harris went off on the perceived ongoing disrespect he receives from fans and coaches around the […]

It’s official: Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant is mad that he wasn’t invited to the All-Star game this year. The 17-16 Grizzlies are in a legitimate playoff hunt, despite playing without Jaren Jackson Jr. Morant and his Grizzlies ended up losing a tight one to the Denver Nuggets, but Morant was feeling it. How else […]

Well, glad to know it wasn’t racism that sparked the racist remarks made by NFHS Announcer Matt Rowan during last night’s girls’ basketball matchup between Norman and Midwest City high schools. In a recent statement, the announcer behind the now-viral video footage of racist rhetoric being uttered into a hot mic at during the national anthem […]

RJ Barrett, the next great hope for the New York Knicks, wants all the smoke for this year’s Olympics. And if you don’t remember, he’s not playing for the United States: RJ Barrett says he plans to play for Canada in the Olympics: “We got an all NBA team. We got a lot of talent.” — […]

Earlier this week, Miami Heat big man Meyers Leonard was witnessed using an anti-Semitic slur during a livestream on his Twitch account, which has since been suspended. Leonard, who was featured just six months ago during the NBA Finals in a touching tribute to his brother Bailey (who served as a U.S. Marine in Afghanistan), […]

Ah, the NFL offseason. For the New York Giants and all other teams, it is a beautiful, savage landscape of smoke-filled rooms, backdoor dealings, tampering/non-tampering… … and hope. That beautiful, cursed thing for the Giants over the past eight years. The NFL offseason is a period of wild speculations, of tall tales and “didn’t you […]

Vacation time for the NBA is over, and everyone is back to hating each other. Devin Booker and the Phoenix Suns square off against Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers in each team’s first matchup after the All-Star break on Thursday night. Here’s the continuation of the odds and prediction series. Both teams are […]

You’ve got to admire the Detriot Lions. For such a hopeless-looking franchise, this organization always manages to  consistently show its stars the respect that they deserve, which bodes well for estranged star Kenny Golladay. Matt Stafford, you want out? Okay, yeah we’ll hook you up with as good a location as we can get you. […]

LaMarcus Aldridge’s time in Alamo City comes to an end. Earlier on Wednesday, the San Antonio Spurs and the sweet-shooting big man reached a mutual agreement to part ways, with Gregg Popovich announcing their intention to trade him. This seemingly signals the end of a pretty weird era in Spurs history, where they were seemingly […]
