I’ll get the usual caveats out of the way first. It’s just one game. It’s the regular season. The playoffs are a different animal. We shouldn’t get carried away. “Weren’t you the guy sitting here this time last week after the Knicks loss telling us not to get too high or low about anything right […]
The Detroit Lions have found their new center. According to Aaron Wilson, the Lions have agreed to terms with former Carolina Panthers starting center Cade Mays to a three-year, $25 million contract. Per Wilson, $14 million of that is guaranteed. Mays, the Panthers’ sixth-round pick in 2022, will turn just 27 years old in April. […]
The Vikings’ first reported move done during the legal tampering window is a two-year, $8.5 million deal for former Steelers cornerback James Pierre. The former undrafted free agent out of Florida Atlantic has spent his entire NFL career with the Steelers on top a short stint with Washington during the 2024 campaign. The 6’2, 185-pound […]
Ohio State’s basketball season has largely revolved around its backcourt. Bruce Thornton’s scoring and leadership, along with John Mobley Jr.’s perimeter shooting, have shaped much of the Buckeyes’ offensive identity. But as the season has moved toward March, another storyline has started to take shape. Freshman forward Amare Bynum has quietly evolved from a developmental […]
If the Lakers were going to convince anyone they were serious, then wins against actually good teams were going to have to come. Prior to Sunday, the Lakers faltered time after time when given the opportunity to beat a contender, including very recently in Denver. In beating the Knicks, then, they not only put together […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers will not be bringing back cornerback James Pierre. After a breakout season in 2025, Pierre is signing a two-year, $8.5 million deal with the Minnesota Vikings, per Cameron Wolfe. Former Steelers secondary coach Gerald Alexander joined the Vikings’ staff this offseason, and now Pierre follows him to the NFC North. The Steelers […]
The Seattle Seahawks won the Super Bowl with Kenneth Walker III earning game MVP honors, something not accomplished by a running back since Terrell Davis. As it turned out, the Super Bowl was Walker’s last game with the Seahawks, who’s joining the Kansas City Chiefs on a lucrative free agent contract. Walker has entered a […]
Kenneth Walker’s final game with the Seattle Seahawks earned him Super Bowl MVP honors, and now the star running back is headed elsewhere in free agency. Tom Pelissero reported on Monday that Walker is going to the Kansas City Chiefs, who’ve won their fair share of Super Bowls in recent seasons without a star running […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers went 1-1 last week, looking strong against the Detroit Pistons and floundering for the first half against the Boston Celtics. Not the most consistent week from the team; however, Evan Mobley was the most consistent presence in both those games. Seeing him reassimilate into the team after an extended absence was a […]
It may not be a first-round pick, but the Miami Heat are receiving a 2026 second-round pick from the Charlotte Hornets as compensation as a result of the Terry Rozier dispute, Associated Press’ Tim Reynolds first reported Monday. ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania confirmed the report shortly thereafter. According to the Miami Herald’s Anthony Chiang, […] The post Heat receive 2026 second-round pick amid Terry Rozier dispute appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .

OKLAHOMA CITY—Coming to you live this morning (as I write this, that is) from The 405, Oklahoma City, home of the reigning NBA champion Thunder. I’m here with my wife, who’s here for a continuing education course in her field of study. I spent most of the day yesterday by myself, but at night, she […]
Paul George is still suspended. Joel Embiid is still recovering from a right oblique strain. Now, Tyrese Maxey is dealing with a sprain in his right pinky — the same pinky which he sprained last season and ended his 2024-25 campaign — and will miss the next two games at least. Rookie VJ Edgecombe is […]
La Liga president Javier Tebas has spoken out about a possible Barcelona return for Lionel Messi after former boss Xavi claimed the Argentine was set to come home in 2023 before Joan Laporta vetoed the move. Xavi has told La Vanguardia that he spoke with Messi about a possible homecoming and that the forward “was […]
As Tyus Jones joins the Denver Nuggets, the chorus of boos grows louder. Houston Rockets fans wanted him. It made some intuitive sense. Jones’ best NBA seasons have seen him marry passing volume with a low turnover rate in a way that, frankly, only Fred VanVleet really does. So why wouldn’t Rafael Stone want him […]
With just under five minutes left in the first half, the Lakers trail the Celtics by four points. Jake LaRavia has the ball on the left wing, but is clearly surveying Luka Dončić, who is attempting to shake free from a handsy Boston defense on the other side of the court. With the aid of […]

Yesterday afternoon, the Knicks Knicks (41*-24) laid an egg in Los Angeles against the Lakers. Tonight brings a chance for redemption as they challenge the Clippers (31-32) at the Intuit Dome. Over their last ten games, both New York and the Clips have gone 6-4. They last met on January 7, when the ‘Bockers won […]
Sunday. Matinee game. Loss. Against the LA Lakers to put the cherry on top. Here’s a whole lot of stuff said in frustration before the Knicks cross the street to face the Clips. Mike Brown On turnovers, low free throws, and losing the offensive board battle being a recipe for disaster: “18 turnovers, 30 free […]
The Bucks get up in Volume 8, new recruits Cam Thomas and Ousmane Dieng making immediate impressions in Milwaukee and claiming their first momentum moments.

It’s the Monday before the new NFL league year starts at 4pm New York time on Wednesday. That, of course, means that it’s the week of the frenzy that is the first week of free agency in the NFL, and while the legal tampering period has yet to start, there’s no shortage of activity when […]

Two weeks ago between the end of the Olympics and the return of the NHL, UNC tipped off against Louisville in a big ACC Matchup.
