Why the “Jumbo” lineup is here to stay for the Rockets

The Houston Rockets second iteration of the Victor Oladipo trade was far more intriguing than the original trade back in 2021.

Sinners & Saints: Roma 0, Inter Milan 1

As much as we decried yesterday’s loss to Inter Milan as a fait accompli, we have to give credit where it’s due: Roma kept last year’s Champions League finalists under control for most of the game.
