The Knickerbockers will keep their road trip going with a matchup against wannabe Knick Giannis tomorrow, and that’s all we care about now. Here are some quotes based on comments from […]
On Sunday night, the Blackhawks lost a game to the Los Angeles Kings. Early in the third period, forward Ilya Mikheyev put his speed on display while killing a penalty. He was in the process of creating a potential scoring chance — skating 1-on-3, I might add — when he got tripped. Mikheyev went into the boards hard behind the LA net and left the game. He did not return. Ilya Mikheyev has not taken a shift since sliding into the boards hard here: pic.twitter.com/W4xX1L5UKC — BHF (@B...
The Cleveland Cavaliers are back on the road after a one-game stint at home to face the Detroit Pistons. The Cavaliers, through three games, definitely are looking to put the pieces together.

Arsenal legend Arsène Wenger analyzed El Clásico for BeIN Sports and praised Real Madrid after their 2-1 victory over Barcelona. “I felt they lost Íñigo Martínez in defense, who was one of the most experienced players… Today it’s clear that the defense against a player like Mbappé lacks maturity and experience.

The dreaded second game of a back-to-back rears its nasty head once again on Monday night. This time, for the San Antonio Spurs and their opponent, the Toronto Raptors. The Raptors tipped off a few hours after the Spurs ended their game on Sunday. Both teams’ first game of the back-to-back had disastrous third quarters. […]
I asked Connor Bedard after the Blackhawks’ 3-1 loss last night about the Kings’ style of play — specifically from the perspective that the Blackhawks have been preaching process thru the lens of playoff approach/intensity. The Kings play a very specific style of game that suits their personnel. Bedard said the Kings play was “boring” — but did it in a way that he was very intentional to say it was “not a dig.” Just that the Kings crowded the blue line when the Hawks wanted to enter the zone a...

If you’re going to be one of the NBA’s worst teams, which the Wizards are, there are going to be nights like this one. The Wizards rode an off shooting half for the Hornets (3-22 from deep despite getting multiple open and wide-open looks) to a halftime lead, which they extended to as much as […]
In an appearance on the TODAY Show last Tuesday, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver inflamed the already-intense negotiations for a new CBA between the WNBA and WNBPA. Asked if WNBA players are deserving of a greater share of growing league revenues, Silver answered, “Yes,” before pontificating: I mean, I think “share” isn’t the right way to […]

CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Cavaliers are still a work in progress. There were stretches of clunky offense and unfocused defense. Neither cost the Cavs as they came away with a 118-113 win over the Milwaukee Bucks in their home opener. Sam Merrill has “probably been our best player” according to head coach Kenny Atkinson. That […]
The Houston Rockets are 0-2 after a double-overtime loss to the champs on opening night in OKC, and a rather disappointing 115-111 loss to the Detroit Pistons in the Rockets home opener.
