I’m guessing the site won’t be a real active place this weekend anyway. Feel free to use this as an open […]

UNC Basketball Off to a Great Defensive Start
Last year’s Tar Heel men’s basketball team was small. How small? My son’s 2A high school started a larger line-up at every position. No, they weren’t nearly as skilled — although the big man does play professionally over in Europe now in one of the lower-level leagues. Reportedly, UNC’s NIL budget for this team grew […]

For much of his career, Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown has faced underappreciation while sharing the floor with co-star Jayson Tatum. This season, however, that isn’t the case.

Luka Garza never felt far from return to Celtics rotation
Luka Garza recently tapped into an old routine he leaned on at the University of Iowa to persist through a six-game stretch of bad games in his sophomore year.
