The NBA & Professional Sports Has ANOTHER Gambling Scandal…
Another day, another new sports gambling scandal. The world of sports and the NBA has been hit with yet another gambling scandal as Toronto Raptors center Jontay Porter has come under investigation for allegedly phoning in his performances. Gambling is going to be the downfall of professional sports. In what is becoming a very common
Rudy Gobert Has Just Drawn The NBA’s Wrath Against Him…
Yeah, he’s going to be out for a while. Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert is going to be hit with a massive fine and probably a lengthy suspension to boot after essentially insinuating the NBA officials are corrupt and the league’s too involved in gambling. It’s an interesting debate…but one’s that’s definitely going to cost Rudy’s
LeBron James Now Has Over 40k Points!
This is a tremendous accomplishment…on a terrible team, unfortunately. LeBron James became the first player in the history of the NBA to score over 40k regular season points in a career…despite his Lakers losing 124-114 to the Nuggets. This really is how LeBron’s Lakers career has gone down in a nutshell. In spite of getting
The NBA Needs To Take Away All-Star Selections…
That was yet ANOTHER embarrassment to the league. The NBA is really in the midst of a massive player entitlement crisis for these pathetic, embarrassing “all-stars” have disgraced the NBA All-Star game ONCE AGAIN! How many more times do these players need to show their abject disdain for the sport of basketball before the NBA
Knicks Make A BIG MOVE With Pistons For Bogdanović & Burks
This could be HUGE for the Knicks. The New York Knicks have made one of the most important deadline moves as they brought in Bojan Bogdanovic and Alec Burks from the Pistons for pretty much nothing. I have a feeling this might be more of a double-edge sword than it appears on the surface. With
So…The 76ers Are Pretty Much Screwed Without Joel Embiid
Yeah, this is going to end the 76ers title run hopes. The 76ers are in serious trouble now that Joel Embiid is going to miss significant time with his knee injury for the team is in a precarious playoff position! Philadelphia is probably screwed from making the playoffs at this point now. Despite having a
The NBA 65-Game Rule IS WORKING!!!
This is the best rule the NBA has implemented in years! The NBA rule to stipulate all awards and postseason honors based upon if they played 65 games or not has been a TREMENDOUS success as players are actually playing basketball consistently again. When players get too selfish and entitled, this is what is needed
The Bucks Have FIRED Adrian Griffin…Despite Being 30-13!
This…is a really shocking move. The Milwaukee Bucks have easily made the most controversial coaching firing in the last two seasons as they have fired Adrian Griffin after just 43 games and a 30-13 record. The poor guy couldn’t even make it to the All-Star break. Despite being 2nd in the East, joint-2nd in the
The Pacers ARE FINALLY GOING FOR IT This Season With Siakam Trade!!!
It’s about time this team finally pushed for a deep title run. The Indiana Pacers are at long last pushing for an NBA Finals berth once again as they made a huge, 5-piece trade to bring over Pascal Siakam from the Toronto Raptors. It’s great to see smaller market teams make these huge moves and
The Bulls Fans Are A DISAGRACE!
This is such a disgraceful thing to do. The Bulls held an inaugural ceremony for the opening of their new Ring of Honor, and a handful of fans within the United Center BOOED Hall of Fame ex-GM Jerry Krause and his widow. This is a travesty to the Chicago Bulls franchise and especially the Bulls
The Celtics Are Great…But They’re NOT Serious Winners
I can’t believe I have to say this about the Celtics. Even though the Celtics are far and away one of the best teams in the NBA (if not the best), I really don’t think this team will ever win anything of note. It’s a really sad thing to say about one’s favorite team, but
The Detroit Pistons Are The Biggest Jokes In Sports!
This team is an utter disgrace. The Detroit Pistons are hellbent on making NBA history…for all the wrong reasons…as they have just tied the record for the most losses in a row with 26! The fans of Detroit should revolt against this franchise and ownership. Despite having one of the best histories of any team
The Capitals & Wizards Are LEAVING Washington…
Well, I guess we’re going to have to start calling these teams the Virginia Capitals and Wizards now. The Washington Wizards and the Washington Capitals are tearing up roots and moving…a few miles south to Virginia as their owner and the mayor of DC couldn’t come to a new stadium agreement. What a shame it
The NBA In-Season Tournament Was…Promising, I Guess?
And the inaugural tournament is finally done. The very first season of the NBA In-Season tournament has come and gone, and even though there were some very bright moments, it also had some dull spots too. This tournament has more promise than I expected…but I don’t know if the NBA can harness it. With the
The NBA In-Season Tournament SUCKS…Because It Could Be So Much MORE!!!
Why the hell is this even a thing? The NBA In-Season Tournament has had its opening round of games happen these last few days, and it really is just a big waste of time. There is SO MANY WAYS this in-season tournament could have been modeled, but Adam Silver really had to make it the
The James Harden Saga IS OVER, Clippers DISH OUT THEIR WHOLE FUTURE For Him!
Steve Balmer deserves to be in an insane asylum for making this trade. The Los Angeles Clippers have thrown all of their chips on the board as they’ve traded their entire kitchen sink to the Philadelphia 76ers to stupidly bring in James Harden in a 12-piece move. What the hell is wrong with the Clippers?
The 76ers Really Just Need To Move On From Harden Now…
This is just getting ridiculous. The Philadelphia 76ers STILL have James Harden moping and moseying around the team facilities after his public outbursts, and it’s honestly just getting a little too ridiculous. Philly just needs to move on. Despite demanding out and ranting on and on about the management, James Harden is still on the
The Hornets Need To Get Rid Of Miles Bridges…
This guy is a walking arrest warrant. The Charlotte Hornets really just need to move off on from Miles Bridges as the forward has AGAIN been accused of breaking the law and is due for ANOTHER court date. What a disaster this guy is making of his life. Despite already being convicted and charged with
Celtics ARE GOING FOR IT ALL With Trail Blazers Trade For Jru Holiday!
We really do have a double-headed monster in the East now. The Boston Celtics are sitting on their hands idly after the Damian Lillard trade as they have made a BLOCKBUSTER move with the Trail Blazers for Jrue Holiday. This is going to be a bloodbath to the end. After the huge trade the Milwaukee
Bucks, Trail Blazers, & Suns MAKE HUGE DAMIAN LILLARD TRADE!!!
This is a MONSTER MOVE! The Damian Lillard trade saga has at long last come to an end as the Trail Blazers, Bucks, and the Suns all came together to make a MASSIVE, 3-team trade! I was not expecting this to be where Damian Lillard ended up. Despite very vocally wanting to go to Miami
The Bucks Are SCREWED As A Franchise If Giannis Leaves…Right?
This is a disaster situation for the Bucks if they lose Giannis. The Milwaukee Bucks are facing a franchise-breaking mess as face of the franchise Giannis Antetokounmpo has made it clear he WILL NOT RESIGN if the team isn’t contending in the future. So, we know all know the Bucks are going to be all
James Harden Is A Stupid Idiot…
I can’t believe Harden’s ACTUAL reason for calling Morey a liar. After an investigation into Harden’s disrespectful comments about Daryl Morey, the NBA has concluded that James Harden is a moron and fined him $100k for it. This guy needs to just get out of the league. The NBA has concluded its brief investigation into
NBA Is Now INVESTIGATING 76ers & Daryl Morey Over Harden!
This situation is getting insane. The NBA is now investigating the 76ers and their GM Daryl Morey over the “liar” comments Harden made about his former best GM friend. Even if Harden has a point about Morey, that guy should never get hired by an NBA team again. The NBA league office is now looking
The 76ers Have To Get Rid Of The TEAM CANCER James Harden
This guy might very well be one of the worst team players in NBA history! The Philadelphia 76ers have an all-out mutiny on their hands as James Harden has publicly and viciously called out the organization and team president Daryl Morey to trade him. If you want to understand why James Harden will NEVER be
ESPN Just Blew Up Their A-Team NBA Announcing Crew…For No Reason
Is ESPN allergic to compelling, interesting content? Despite being one of the few things interesting to the NBA Finals, the announcing crew of Mike Breen, Stan Van Gundy, and Mark Jackson has been broken up for no real reason. What a stupid decision this is. After nearly 20 years of working NBA Finals series and
The NBA Is NOT HAPPY With Damian Lillard…
When was the last time the league came out this forcefully against a trade? The NBA itself has, in a rather unprecedented manner, come out firmly against Damian Lillard and his agent Aaron Goodwin with a statement making it clear the league will punish Lillard if any more comments about the PG’s unwillingness to play
Celtics Give Jaylen Brown The BIGGEST CONTRACT IN NBA HISTORY!
I get they had to pay him, but this is a gross overpayment by any stretch of the imagination. The Boston Celtics have just made Jaylen Brown the richest NBA player in the league’s history as he signed a 5-year, monstrous supermax deal worth $304M. What a massive contract this is. Despite friction between Brown
The 76ers Are Imploding!
What the hell happened to this team in the last couple of months? The Philadelphia 76ers are utterly imploding as all of their star players, including James Harden and Joel Embiid, have either demanded a trade or made it known they aren’t in Philly for the long haul. I guess this is what happens when
NBA Summer League Debuts Of The 2023 Top-4 Were…Interesting
Yeah, that’s not really how I expected the Top-4’s Summer League debuts to go down. The debuts of the 2023 Top-4 draft picks at the NBA Summer League really didn’t go as planned as injury, poor performances, and general inexperience to American basketball dimmed these four players’ enormous talents. Well, at least they have a
The NBA In-Season Tournament Is SO STUPID!
Would someone please turn off the soccer games on Adam Silver’s T.V.! The NBA and commissioner Adam Silver are going full force on the In-Season Tournament as the NBA is set to implement a Champions League-style tournament smack dab in the middle of the season. I really can’t believe Adam Silver and the NBA league
Damian Lillard Is RIGHT To Want Out Of Portland…But Not With His Demands
Beggers can’t be choosers when you’re asking to join a contender from a lottery team. Damian Lillard has FINALLY and RIGHTFULLY asked out of Portland after 11 years of playoff misery and lottery pick seasons, yet him demanding to just join the Heat is an insane demand to make. How can you reject all steak
NBA Free Agent Fever Was…More Like A Predictable, Mild Cold
Well, that was a very boring start to the free agent rush. The opening night of NBA Free Agent Fever really wasn’t worse than the mild cold as a bunch of players chose to resign with their current teams, ruining the whole “fever” aspect of the market. I know I really shouldn’t be complaining about
76ers And James Harden Relationship Is OVER…Despite Harden’s Opt-In
This Harden-Simmons trade is going to go down in folklore as the trade that doomed the 76ers and Nets. The Philadelphia 76ers and James Harden are almost set to break up this offseason as despite opting-in to a further year, Harden has demanded as trade out of Philly. I’m sure Nets and 76ers fans are
The NBA Draft Was REALLY BORING…And Predictable
Well, it was really predictable if your name is Shams Charania. The 2023 NBA Draft has come and gone, and it was the most…boring night one could have imagined as nearly every player went where they were predicted and there wasn’t any major trades. Do you want to know how to bore 5M+ people for
Warriors Trading For Chris Paul Is A Very Odd Move…
I don’t know how I like this move for Golden State. The Mike Dunleavy Jr. era as the GM of the Golden State Warriors has gotten off to an interesting start as he made a blockbuster trade to acquire Chris Paul from the Wizards for Jordan Poole and draft picks. I get the logic behind the
Celtics MASSIVE 3-Team Trade For Porzingis Is…Great, I Guess?
This has to go down as one of the biggest and strangest trades of the offseason. The Celtics, Wizards, Grizzlies have just made a huge, weird 3-team trade that saw Kristaps Porzingis join the C’s and Marcus Smart head to the Grizzlies. I really don’t know how I feel about this deal. The Boston Celtics,
The Wizards Are TRADING BRADLEY BEAL To The Suns For WHAT?!?!?!
Are the Wizards just this stupid, or is there another deal happing in the works. The Washington Wizards are trading away Bradley Beal to the Phoenix Suns for Chris Paul and a bag of potato chips…even though they literally have no one else on their roster to compete with. Whenever you think your franchise is
Michael Jordan Has Sold The Hornets For $3B!
Well, at least the Hornets might actually be good for a change. Michael Jordan has finally called it wraps on his ownership adventure as he’s officially sold his majority stake in the Charlotte Hornets for a whopping $3B! Say what you will about MJ as an owner, but he’s just made 10X his original investment.
THE DENVER NUGGETS ARE NBA CHAMPIONS, WIN GAME 5 94-89 OVER HEAT!
The longest drought in NBA history is at last over. The Denver Nuggets have finally won the NBA championship as they beat the Miami Heat 94-89 in Game 5 to win the series 4-1 and secure the franchise’s first ever title. 50 years of misery, sadness, anticipation, hope, disappointment on repeat has finally been broken.
Nuggets Swept Past Heat In Miami, One Win Away From Title
Yeah, this series is over. The Denver Nuggets just had a series-defining win as they completed the Miami sweep by winning Game 4 108-95 to push their series lead 3-1. It’s really impressive the Heat have gotten this far, but the fairy tale story is just about over. The Denver Nuggets have passed the third
The Nuggets Take Their Defensive Duties Serious Again, THRASH Heat 109-94
Well, I guess Mike Malone’s criticism proved to be effective. The Denver Nuggets have taken another step closer to be crowded NBA champions as they played stellar defense against the Miami Heat, humbling them 109-94 to take a 2-1 lead. This game was the epitome of how the Nuggets can win this series. After a brutal,
The Heat SURVIVE Nuggets Comeback 111-108, Tie Series 1-1
We’ve got a series again. The Miami Heat pretty much saved their season and hopes for another NBA title as they beat the Denver Nuggets 111-108, coming up with a huge last-second stop to tie the series 1-1. This Heat team just won’t give up! The Miami Heat have tied the NBA Finals against all
Pistons Hiring Monty Williams To A 6-Year, $78M Deal Is Super Smart…If Given Time
This could turn around this dysfunctional franchise…if done right. The Detroit Pistons have finally made a competent coaching hire as they brought in former Suns coach Monty Williams to a 6-year, $78M deal that should really help this franchise so long as Williams is given enough time. The Pistons really need this coaching hire to
The Nuggets TAKE OUT Heat EASILY 104-93, Lead Finals 1-0
This could be a very short series if the games continue like this. The Denver Nuggets continue destroying every opponent in front of them as they tore apart the Miami Heat 104-93 in Game 1, cementing a 1-0 lead for them in the NBA Finals. We might be heading for a sweep if Miami isn’t
Scottie Pippen Calling MJ A “Horrible Player” Before He Arrived In CHI Is Just Wrong
This is just factually incorrect. Scottie Pippen has shown his bitterness about his time with the Bulls once again as he had the nerve to say Michael Jordan was a “horrible player” before he arrived in Chicago. I don’t think I’ve ever seen more bitter, jealous person than Scottie Pippen. In classic Pippen style, the
The Heat CRUSH Celtics And Avoid Game 7 Disaster, Clinch Another Finals Appearance
This Heat team has a nerve of vibranium. The Miami Heat overcame a terrible GM 6 loss, the raucous Boston crowd, and the threat of history as they crushed the Celtics 103-84 in Game 7, cementing their 2nd Finals appearance in the last three years. This Heat team is what every team in the league
Celtics WIN GM 6 WITH A DERRICK WHITE BUZZER BEATER, FORCE UNPRECEDENTED GAME 7!
I can’t believe what I witnessed in that game. The Boston Celtics survived elimination AGAIN as they forced Game 7 against the Heat with a 104-103 win on the back of a Derrick White BUZZER BEATER! This might very well be the game (and series for that matter) of the decade. The Boston Celtics are
Celtics Stave Off Elimination Once Again, Force Game 6
Okay, this series is becoming far more interesting. The Boston Celtics survived yet another elimination game as they beat the Miami Heat 110-97 in Game 5 to get the series to 3-2 and give themselves a sliver of hope of advancing for Game 6. I’m not taking back anything I said after Game 3, but
The Heat CATEGORICAL HUMILIATED Celtics 128-102 To Go Up 3-0, Series Is OVER
If you need any proof on what is and is not a championship-caliber team, go watch this game. The Miami Heat decided to show the world what a championship team actually looks like as they DESTROYED the Boston Celtics 128-102 in Game 3 to go up 3-0 in the series. As a Celtics player, it
Heat Outlast Celtics AGAIN With 111-105 GM 2 Win, Heading Back To Miami Up 2-0
This series is over, isn’t it? The Miami Heat have again proven hard work, discipline, and commitment to a gameplan will always triumph inconsistent greatness as they beat the Celtics 111-105 in Game 2 to take a 2-0 series lead back to Miami. That ESPN guy who gave the Heat a 3% chance of winning
The Heat EXPLODE For Game 1 Victory Over Celtics, Proving This Is A TIGHT SERIES
Who was the idiot that gave the Heat a 3% chance of winning? The Miami Heat exploded in the 3rd quarter for nearly 50 points as they won Game 1 123-116 over the Celtics, proving this is going to be an extremely close series. This Heat team is honestly one of the most remarkable units
The 76ers FIRE Doc Rivers…
Yeah, this was obviously going to happen. In the wake of yet another blown series lead and a horrid Game 7 performance, the 76ers have fired Doc Rivers as The Process is unraveling before our very eyes. I really do like Doc Rivers as a HC, but his record in big games is simply woeful!
The Celtics ABSOUTLEY OBLETIRATE The 76ers, Dominate GM 7 To Advance
FINALLY, the C’s showed just how good they can be. On the back of a historical, epic performance from Jayson Tatum, the Boston Celtics utterly annihilated the 76ers 112-88 in Game 7 to win the series and earn a spot in the Eastern Conference Finals. And here I thought Jayson Tatum couldn’t have a better
Celtics Somehow Get SAVED By Tatum…After Nearly Being Doomed By Him, Force GM 7
I’ve got no words for how this game went down. The Boston Celtics were somehow able to pull off an incredible 95-86 win over the 76ers in Game 6 both in spite and because of Jayson Tatum, giving way for an all-decisive Game 7 in Boston. Has an NBA franchise superstar ever saved his legacy
The 76ers UTTERLY DOMINATED The Celtics In Game 5 115-103, One Win Away From ECF
As a Celtics fan, all I can say is well done, Philadelphia, for actually trying. The Philadelphia 76ers made franchise history as they won their first road Game 5 in a tied series to date as they THRASHED a wimpish Celtics team 115-103 to put them a single win away from a Conference Finals appearance.
Bucks FIRE Mike Budenholzer, Unceremoniously Ending His Successful Reign
I have to say this was a bit premature. The Bucks have made their first big decision following their upset 4-1 series loss to the 8th seeded Miami Heat as they fired longtime coach Mike Budenholzer. This may end up being the right move, but it just feels wrong to do so right after such
Celtics ABSOLUTELY OBLITERATE 76ers By 34 PTS, Tie Series 1-1!
That was an utter slaughter. The Boston Celtics showed they aren’t going to get pushed aside by the 76ers as they humbled Philly 121-87 to tie the series 1-1 and take back all the momentum. I don’t think we’ll see a blowout that bad for the rest of the postseason. The Boston Celtics halted the
The Celtics FINALLY Knock Off The Hawks, Win Series 4-2
What a hard-fought series. After some of the most intense, hard fought playoff games of 2023 yet, the Boston Celtics finally beat the Atlanta Hawks 128-120 in Game 6 to win the series 4-2 and book their place in the Second Round. I really mean this when I say it: both teams deserved to move
THE HEAT UPSET THE BUCKS IN MILWAUKEE 128-126, Win Series 4-1!!!
What an utterly incredible performance by Miami. The 8th seeded Miami Heat have overcome all the odds and BEATEN the 1st seeded Milwaukee Bucks 4-1 as Jimmy Butler had another all-time great performance to help the Heat win Game 5 128-126. That’s how you pull off one of the most incredible upsets in NBA history.
Heat Vs. Bucks: Playoff Jimmy BALLS OUT For 56 PTS, Gives Heat 3-1 Lead
That may have been one of the single greatest playoff performances I’ve ever seen. The Miami Heat were CARRIED to victory by Jimmy Butler as he posted an incredible 56 PTS to defeat the Milwaukee Bucks and give the 8th seeded Heat a 3-1 series lead. WHAT A PERFORMANCE! I don’t know what else to
The 76ers Have All But Wrapped Up Series Vs. Nets Despite Controversies, Take 3-0 Lead
Yeah, this was the expected result…even with the ejection controversies. The Philadelphia 76ers have all but secured their place in the Second Round as they defeated the Brooklyn Nets with their 102-97 controversial win in Game 3 to take the unconquerable 3-0 series lead. This series has been wrapped up…finally. I’ll give the Brooklyn Net
Bucks Could Be In Seriously Trouble After 130-117 GM 1 Loss To Heat…
There’s definitely no reason to panic if you’re a Bucks fan…yet. The Milwaukee Bucks suffered a big blow in their title quest as they lost Game 1 130-117 to the Miami Heat as Giannis Antetokounmpo left the game early with a back injury. Like I said in the intro, the Bucks are pigeonholing themselves into
Timberwolves, Heat Both EASILY Fend Off Challengers, Make It Out Of Play-In
This is why these two teams finished within the Top-8 in their, respective, conferences. Both the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Miami Heat beat off their lower-seeded opponents as they handily won their Play-In games, cementing them as the 8th seeds in their, respective, conferences. Like I said, the results of these two games are why
NBA & NBPA Finally Come Together, Reach New CBA Agreement
Hopefully, this fixes the glaring errors in the league. The NBA and the Players Association have finally come together and agreed to a new, 7-year CBA agreement starting in the 2023-24 season, ensuring there won’t be a lockout. Well, the deal is not officially signed yet as the players and board of governors (aka: the
Nets MUST Cut Ben Simmons After Latest Shutdown
I’m sorry to say it, but this situation has turned into a worst-case scenario for both parties. The Brooklyn Nets have been forced to shut down Ben Simmons for an entire season once again as his back injuries have returned, leaving his expensive spot on the roster an unnecessary expense. I think it’s clear to
Kevin Durant And Charles Barkley Feud Just Never Gets Old
This two will be fighting from now to the end of time. Charles Barkley has found a new way to take a shot at Kevin Durant during the former’s 60 Minutes interview, which obviously provoked Durant to insult Barkley in an equally new light. Forget the Celtics vs. Lakers, 1990’s Bulls vs. Pistons, 1990’s Bulls vs.
Celtics Are In Serious Risk Of Losing Jaylen Brown This Offseason…
It really wouldn’t surprise me if Jalen Brown rejects the supermax and hits the free agent market. The Celtics and Jaylen Brown haven’t really gotten on the same page for a contract extension as the constant trade speculation involving Brown could have permanently soured the relationship. This would be a catastrophic loss for the Celtics
Celtics Blow YET ANOTHER Double-Digit Lead, Lose 118-117 Vs. Jazz
At least the Heat’s loss secured their 9th straight trip to the postseason. The Boston Celtics are crawling over the finish line as they lost another double-digit lead to a lottery-picking team with their 118-117 loss to the Utah Jazz. This team has a serious, serious, serious problem: THEY ARE TOO SMALL! In their last
Hornets Owner Michael Jordan Is In Talk To Sell The Team…
It’s going to be a sad day when MJ isn’t at the forefront of the NBA. Charlotte Hornets owner Michael Jordan has been in talks with outside businessmen and his own minority owners as he is looking to sell his majority stake in the team. I know Michael Jordan has been a pretty bad owner
Ja Morant Getting Suspended For 8 Games By NBA Was The Only Way Forward
There has to be a strict discipline for such behavior, and I think Adam Silver got it right with this suspension. The NBA and commissioner Adam Silver has suspended Grizzlies superstar guard Ja Morant for 8 games in light of his nightclub-gun video that has set the NBA world on fire these last few weeks.
Fred VanVleet Is Right With NBA Refs Being SO SOFT!
These guys might actually be some of the softest people in all of sports. Toronto Raptors PG Fred VanVleet publicly and rightfully called out the NBA referees as being too soft and emotional as technical calls and ejections are happening every night. It’s crazy how emotional the NBA referees have become in such a short
The Celtics Are Really Worrying Me Now…
So much for me saying this team was untouchable. The Celtics have been absolutely dreadful since the all-star break as they’ve gone 3-4, lost the lead in the East, and have blown three 10+ point leads in said span. Is this just a mid/late season stumble, or the Celtics getting found out by the rest
Hawks Hiring Quinn Snyder Was A FANTASTIC Move
There’s finally going to be unity and order established in this franchise. The Atlanta Hawks have made a brilliant move in signing former Utah Jazz HC Quin Snyder to a 5-year contract as their playoff push grows even more contested and tight. This might very well be the best thing that has happened to the
Hawks Fire HC Nate MacMillian As Their Playoff Dreams Fly Away
Okay, bad pun but you get the point. The Atlanta Hawks have fired yet another coach as Nate MacMillian has been relieved of his duties only a few days before the NBA season was set to resume, leaving the Hawks coach-less in the most important stretch of the season. There comes a point in time
NFL Drug Testing Just Never Lets Up…Even When Their Athletes Play Different Sports
Can’t a man just have fun at another sports’ all-star game? After putting up an MVP performance at the NBA Celebrity All-Star game, DK Metcalf posted that the NFL Health And Safety office has contacted him about getting drug tested, even though it’s the offseason. We all know that DK Metcalf is a freak of
The NBA Is Going To Have An Almighty Reckoning…And It’s The Nets Fault
There’s going to be a massive battle between ownership and players at the new collective bargaining agreement. Adam Silver has blatantly said that “player trade demands are a bad thing” in an interview with ESPN, ensuring there will be a fight over player empowerment at the 2024 NBA collective bargaining agreement negotiation. There was always
This Was The BEST NBA Trade Deadline EVER!
This had to be the biggest trade deadline in NBA history. None of the NBA teams shied away from making huge moves today as there were over 15 official trades, with half the Western Conference bolstering up for a competitive playoff run. Like I said in the title, this has to be the very best
MASSIVE TRADE: Suns Give Up Future To Land KEVIN DURANT From Nets In 4-Team Deal
What a blockbuster move by Phoenix and new owner Matt Ishbia. The Phoenix Suns have made the biggest move of the trade deadline as they coughed up 5 1st round picks and four roster players to acquire Kevin Durant in a deal that also involved the Nets, Pacers, and Bucks. WHAT. A. TRADE! This might
Kyrie Irving Has Been Traded To…The Dallas Mavericks!
The Kyrie Irving saga has at long last been concluded. The Brooklyn Nets have finally cut ties with their extraordinarily controversial superstar, Kyrie Irving, as they traded him to the Mavericks for three picks and two players. Thank the basketball gods that this saga is over. I don’t think there has been a worse player-city/franchise
Kyrie Irving Demands OUT OF BROOKLYN, Proves He’s A Team Destroyer
This guy is honestly the most baffling basketball player to have existed. Despite putting up all-star level numbers on a contending Nets team, Kyrie Irving has demanded a trade out of Brooklyn a week before the trade deadline. This is why you can NEVER, EVER rely on Kyrie Irving as a franchise basketball player. Like
Celtics Vs. Nets: That Was A Blowout Of EPIC Proportions
What a shellacking Boston dished out to Brooklyn last night. The Boston Celtics showed no mercy to the Kevin Durant-less Nets as they led by as many as 49 points in a 139-96 dismantling of an Eastern Conference rival. That’s how you bounce back from a slump in form against a contending team in the
LeBron James Was Robbed Vs. Celtics…But It’s Not Like Lakers Are Going Anywhere
You’d have thought that LeBron was robbed of the NBA Championship by his reaction. The Lakers and LeBron James were robbed of an obvious foul call late in their 125-121 loss to the Celtics, but it’s not like the game was that important. Ah, there’s nothing like seeing LeBron James, the biggest star on the
Pistons Vs. Magic Brawl: Almost A Second Malice In The Palace
The Detroit PA announcers must have had Vietnam flashbacks when the Magic bench cleared. The Pistons and Magic got into a huge brawl over a cheap shot by Magic center Mo Wagner and then a dirty sucker punch by Pistons PG Killian Hayes, resulting in over a dozen suspensions. You can take the Bad Boy
The Nets Have Done Something I Thought Impossible: They Stopped Being Selfish
I’ll be the first one to admit I may have written off the Nets too early. The Brooklyn Nets and their superstars have stopped being the biggest sideshow in the NBA and have actually focused on playing the game, resulting in them going on a 9-game winning streak. This was always the thing about the
The Bulls Are In Huge Trouble…
Can this Chicago team get any more disjointed? The Chiago Bulls have fallen to 11-16 with their 128-120 loss to the New York Knicks last night, pushing them down to 11th in the East and well outside the playoffs. This team is so much better on paper than what they are producing on a nightly
The Celtics Desperately Need Another Big Man, Overcome Lakers 122-118
This team will win the championship…if they can keep their big man healthy. The Boston Celtics showed last night with their 122-118 OT win over the Lakers that they desperately need another big man in their lineup or else this championship-caliber group will go to waste against bigger teams. That game was the epitome of
Michael Jordan Is The NBA’s MVP…Literally
You never could get this trophy away from MJ when he was playing, so why not give it to him now. In the show of ultimate respect, the NBA has announced that they have effectively immediately renamed and redesigned the MVP award after Michael Jordan, thus further cementing his legacy. MJ was the only person
76ers-Lakers Game Shows That Philly Isn’t Going Anywhere…
This team is not winning two playoff series, let alone the championship. The Philadelphia 76ers showed with their narrow victory over the Los Angeles Lakers that they are not a contender in the East, despite paying so much money on generational superstars. If you needed any more proof that the 76ers aren’t a contender in
Celtics Prove Their Dominance, DESTROY Suns 125-98
That was the best team in the West? The Boston Celtics utterly destroyed the best team of the Western Conference, the Phoenix Suns, in an uncompetitive blowout by winning the game 125-98. That was a slaughter of extraordinary proportions. The Boston Celtics and the Phoenix Suns came into that game last night as the two
The Knicks Are Underperforming AGAIN
What a shocker: the Knicks suck. The New York Knicks have failed to live up to expectations once again as they have yet to get going this season with them currently sitting in 11th place in the East on a 10-13 record. No matter how many times the New York Knicks are hyped up in
The Celtics Keep Rolling With Win Over Kings
This team is nearly unbeatable. The Boston Celtics have furthered their lead atop the East by 1.5 games as they beat down the resurgent Sacramento Kings 122-104 to improve their record to 15-4. Can anyone stop the Celtics? Despite so much offseason turmoil, this Celtics roster has proven that their Finals loss to the Golden
How Did The Nets Lose To The 76ers?
No Embiid, Harden, and Maxey and they still lost?!? The Brooklyn Nets have floundered once again as they lost to an injury-battered, starless 76ers team 115-106 in Ben Simmons return game to Philadelphia. The Brooklyn Nets are such a weird team to watch. On one night they can look like the greatest team to have
Giannis Burns Bucks With 11 FREE THROW MISSES, Lose 110-102 To 76ers
That was a performance Shaq would be proud of. The Milwaukee Bucks have dropped to 11-4 on the season with their loss to the Philadelphia 76ers as Giannis missed 11 free throws in a dreadful shooting performance. Wow, I don’t think Giannis Antetokounmpo could have had a worse night from the free throw line if he tried.
Nets Really Need To Trade KD…
The Nets really need to blow everything up and start over. The Brooklyn Nets fiasco continues to grow larger and more volatile as the day go by as now Kevin Durant has come out and openly criticized his teammates by name, even saying that it’s impossible to win with them. The KD-Kyrie experiment has been
The Celtics Are A FORCE To Be Reckoned With, Crush Hawks 126-101
Wow, that was a drubbing if I’ve ever seen one. The Boston Celtics continued steamrolling the NBA as they crushed the Atlanta Hawks 126-101 without even having Marcus Smart or Malcolm Brogdon in the backcourt. This Celtics team is a legit contender for the NBA Championship in spite of all of the negative press and
Nets Look Really Good…Without Kyrie Irving
Well, this is a little awkward. The Nets have surprised everyone by winning three of their last four games and looked good doing it…even though Kyrie Irving has not played a single minute. It seems like Kyrie Irving has hurt himself with that post even more than anyone could have realized. Prior to getting suspended
And Now Kyrie Irving Has Been Suspended AT A MINIMUM Of 5 Games…
I knew this situation would divulge into an utter mess. The Brooklyn Nets have clearly had enough of Kyrie Irving as they have suspended their star for a minimum of 5 games, though Irving’s newest apology might just save him from complete ruin. Everyone knew that Kyrie Irving was playing with fire when he doubled
Kyrie Irving Is Becoming A Huge Problem For The NBA…
This situation could get very ugly. Even though he and the Nets pledged a combined $1M to various Jewish-support groups, Kyrie Irving has doubled down on his comments and posts that has now forced Adam Silver to have an in-person hearing with him. I’m not even exaggerating when I say that Kyrie Irving might get
Nets Problems Get Even Worse, Lose 108-99 To Bulls
When it rains it pours, and especially when you’re in Brooklyn. The Brooklyn Nets came into their first game since Steve Nash’s firing…and blew multiple 10+ point leads to lose 108-99 to the Chicago Bulls as Kyrie Irving had a Nets’ career worst 4-point night. There isn’t a team more comical in the NBA than
What A Shocker: Steve Nash Is OUT As Nets Coach…Yes, That’s Sacrasm
Obviously, this isn’t very shocking at all. The Brooklyn Nets have finally put head coach Steve Nash out of his misery as they fired the NBA legend after only seven games into the season, though they were a dreadful seven games. Yeah, this Brooklyn Nets abomination needs to be set on fire and forgotten about
Ben Simmons Is A Problem…
He’s becoming a huge issue for the Nets now. It’s painfully clear that Ben Simmons return to the NBA has gone worse than imagined as he’s already fouled out of two games and has less than 6 points/game, making him a huge liability on the court. If you ever wanted to see what a broken
Nets Looked Terrible, Blown Out 130-108 By Pelicans
Is this really surprising anymore? The Brooklyn Nets have overcome all of their offseason turmoil and struggles…to only get blown out by Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans 130-108 on their own home court. The Brooklyn Nets are truly an abomination of a basketball team. Everything about this team and the franchise just looks
Celtics, Warriors Surge To Wins On Opening Night
Last season’s NBA title finalists have gotten their, respective, follow-up campaigns off on a winning start. The Boston Celtics and the Golden State Warriors have won on the NBA’s 2022/23 opening night, sinking the 76ers and the Lakers in the process. Well, out of the two losing teams, one of them put in a great
Is LeBron James Right? Should There Be An NBA Team In Las Vegas?
King James might be onto something with this suggestion. LeBron James has recently said in an interview that if the NBA had another expansion, he would like to see the next expansion team located in Las Vegas, Nevada. Out of all of the sports that match the atmosphere of a city like Las Vegas, I
Something’s Off With This Ime Udoka Story…
There’s obviously more to this story than what the Celtics are letting on. With Ime Udoka now officially suspended for the 2022/23 season, the coyness and secrecy still surrounding this topic by the Celtics hierarchy in their press conference today was really strange. What are the Celtics not revealing about this Udoka story? I thought
Wait, Why Is Ime Udoka Suspended For A Year?
This really came out of left field. Boston Celtics head coach Ime Udoka will be SUSPENDED FOR A YEAR by his own team as the Celtics said he engaged in an inappropriate affair with a female employee. This story is crazy. Ime Udoka was (and really still is) the brightest young coaching candidate in the
An NBA In-Season Tournament Is Just Plain Dumb
Why is this even a thing being seriously discussed? With the recent news that the NBA in-season tournament will be introduced into the NBA next season, it just further proves that the NBA executives have way too much time on their hands. Who thought that this tournament was a good idea? The NBA is currently
Cavaliers Make Themselves East Contenders By Acquiring Donovan Mitchell
The East is STACKED! The Cleveland Cavaliers have made themselves contenders overnight by acquiring Utah’s Donovan Mitchell for 3 unprotected 1st-round picks and 3 players. How many great teams are there in the East now? 7? Well, you can definitely add the Cleveland Cavaliers to that mix as by acquiring Donovan Mitchell, the Cavaliers hierarchy
Kevin Durant Is STAYING In Brooklyn As His Trade Request Is Refused
The three-month long saga has ended. The Brooklyn Nets hierarchy and leadership has recently meet with Kevin Durant and told him that he WILL NOT be traded. What a letdown this trade saga ended up being. From potentially seeing two of the NBA’s most marketable and skilled players traded for massive hauls, to not seeing
Sorry Milwaukee Fans But Giannis Is Going To Leave
It may not be in the next few years, but this is going to happen. Giannis Antetokounmpo has recently done an interview with a local Chicago T.V. network and expressed his interest (well, more like life-long goal) in joining the Chicago Bulls and leave Milwaukee. The story of the 2020-21 Giannis-led Milwaukee Bucks overcoming every
Bill Russell’s #6 Will Become The First Universally Retired NBA Jersey
There really is no greater man to have this honor posthumously bestowed upon him. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has announced today that Bill Russell’s #6 jersey will be the first jersey to be retired universally around the NBA. This is an honor that few players in sports history, let alone the NBA, have received. Only
KD Ultimatum: Either Trade Him Or Fire Steve Nash And Sean Marks
Kevin Durant has reportedly confronted Brooklyn Nets owner Joe Tsai with an ultimatum: trade KD or get rid of coach Steve Nash and GM Sean Marks. If these reports are true, then KD has just set the beginning groundworks of the most influential decision for the next five years of basketball. Will a franchise superstar
Bill Russell: The Legend Of Basketball Has Passed Away
The basketball world has lost its most influential star. Boston Celtics legend, Bill Russell, has unfortunately passed away today at the age of 88. I think it’s only fair to take a moment and honor the icon that was Bill Russell. When one looks back at the trailblazers of equality in professional sports, one of
Uh Oh, 76ers, You Guys May Be In Trouble
The Philadelphia 76ers may have just been busted for tampering with the CBAs rules on free agency with their recent acquisitions of P.J. Tucker, Danuel House, and resigning James Harden. The current CBA deal has strict rules in place to combat against NBA franchises reaching out and agreeing to deals with soon-to-be free agents before
Finally, There Is Some KD Trade News!
This has to be the longest, most drawn out trade negotiations in history. Kevin Durant has yet to be traded, despite wishing to be moved three weeks ago. Thankfully, there was finally some brand-new murmurs that the Boston Celtics, of all people, are in for KD. I have been crying out for the Celtics to
