It’s no secret that the Dallas Mavericks are in a bad place at the moment. Sitting at 2-6, these Mavs have lost at home to two of the worst teams in the NBA already, losing to the Wizards and Pelicans all within a spell of three weeks. This extended stretch has taxed everyone involved, seemingly […]
In the Miami Heat’s latest loss to the Denver Nuggets, they didn’t just lose the game— but they also lost their All-Star big man. Bam Adebayo had suffered a foot injury early in the first half of the game, only to eventually leave to the locker room and never return. The Heat and Adebayo were […] The post Heat having no backup plan with big man depth is clear front office blunder appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
After stealing Luka Dončić from the Dallas Mavericks at the trade deadline in February, Lakers President of Basketball Operations Rob Pelinka easily could have rested on his laurels this offseason. He could have run back the same group in hopes that a full season with Dončić, LeBron James and Austin Reaves would result in a […]
Roy Keane has never been one to mince words — and on the latest episode of Stick to Football, the former Manchester United captain called out Liverpool fans for booing Trent Alexander-Arnold during his return to Anfield as a Real Madrid player. Alexander-Arnold, who left Liverpool in the summer join Real Madrid, was met with […]
Do you think Billy Donovan keeps checking the Eastern Conference standings just to make sure it’s real? I know I do! The Chicago Bulls have started the season 5-0 at home! While I am not as obsessed with “home court advantage” as Arturas Karnisovas, I think we can all agree that you’re supposed to play better in your own building. For whatever reason, the Bulls have been awful at that over the past few years. They have finished below .500 at the United Center in each of the last two sea...
Over the first handful of games, the San Antonio Spurs have set out to make a statement. Prior to last night’s loss to the Lakers, they sat at 12th in defensive rating, 12th in net rating, and, perhaps surprisingly, 11th in offensive rating (all adjusted for strength of schedule per dunksandthrees.com). While much of that […]
The Maine Celtics have unveiled their 2025-2026 roster, and there’s one notable omission: former St. John star RJ Luis. Luis was on a two-way contract with the Celtics at training camp and joined the Celtics’ G League affiliate after being waived by the Celtics. But now, Luis is not on the official Maine Celtics roster, […]

The Portland Trail Blazers’ matchup with the defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night was a lot. It was dead and then alive. Frustrating and then euphoric. Hard to watch and then must-see TV. It was imperfect and wacky and nerve-wracking. Above all, it was a win, as the Blazers rallied from 22 down […]

He averages 42.3 percent from three through 16 seasons in the NBA. 95.3 on free throws. Steph Curry is widely considered the best shooter in NBA history, and yet he calls his old splash brother’s form the one to emulate. On the latest episode of the “Mind the Game” podcast with Steve Nash and LeBron […]

The Knicks beat the Wolves on Wednesday and the man of the minute was none other than Mitchell Robinson. Mitchy Ain’t No Snitchy! Here’s what he heard from Coach Brown and a few other Knickerbockers before and after yesterday’s trouncing. Mike Brown On the Timberwolves: “We’re preparing like he’s gonna play, but it’s a really […]
It was good to see the Celtics get a big win. I love Payton Pritchard and I agree with the comment that it's not at all random when he has a big game. I also really like Josh Minott. When Drew or Scal said "Josh Minott doing Josh Minott things," it reminded me of Marcus Smart. Watching him do Marcus Smart things for LA hurts my heart. I miss him. Jaylen Brown is never going to live down the hairline memes. My favorites are in bold. Wh...
As frustrating as Tuesday night might have been for Sixers fans, and as disappointing as it is to drop both games of a back-to-back, Philly is off to about as good a start as fans could have asked for. The Sixers return home at 5-3, with a couple of those wins coming over Boston and […]
“Be disciplined to be disciplined to like and embrace the boring.” Those words echoed throughout basketball cyberspace after the San Antonio Spurs dismantled the Dallas Mavericks on opening night. Flash forward a few weeks, and it doesn’t seem like Mitch Johnson’s words have necessarily stuck with his young team. The Spurs beat themselves on Wednesday […]
Payton Pritchard hasn’t quite looked like himself lately, and that’s OK. The reigning NBA Sixth Man of the Year, poised to make his latest career leap with increased responsibility as one of the top-3 premier scorers in the 2025-26 Celtics lineup, hasn’t been able to rely on his greatest offensive strength: his 3-point shot. Pritchard […]

The Florida Panthers (6-6-1) continue their western swing tonight at Crypto.com Arena where they will pay their one and only regular season visit to the Los Angeles Kings (6-4-4), who are currently holding down fourth place in the Pacific Division. Florida opened its four-game road trip with a thud, collapsing late and losing 7-3 to Cutter Gauthier, who delivered his first career hat trick, and the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday. The Panthers held a 3-2 lead midway through the game, only to see...
