The Portland Trail Blazers went 2-2 this week, picking up wins over the tanking Utah Jazz and Brooklyn Nets while falling short in close games against the Charlotte Hornets and Philadelphia 76ers. This part of the NBA season can lead to some gaudy numbers from unlikely names. However, it can also serve as a good […]

If you received a snapshot of a certain timestamp in almost every single Knicks game since the all-star break, you’d think the team was in the midst of another January collapse that would have them plummeting towards the play-in tournament and have Mike Brown receiving his pink slip: Trailed 93-75 with 10:50 left in the […]

It’s been a month and a half since the Cleveland Cavaliers traded for James Harden. So far, the results have pretty good. The Cavs won their first five games with Harden in the lineup. Since that time, he’s broken a finger, and the team has lost four of their last nine games with him. The […]

I love when opposing fans give credit to our players, especially White and Pritchard. I love the description of the Celtics as a gym rat lunch pail lineup. It's funny that everyone thinks the Celtics get so much help from the refs but the Celtics are last in the league in free throws attempted. Suns fans can't quite decide whether they like Booker or not. My favorites are in bold. What are yours? Neemias was awsome last game on paper he is ...

Ok so let me walk you through how this night went for me and see if it tracks similarly for you. I turn on my TV at 7:00 because I forgot it was a road game. False start. That’s OK. We can recover from this. We’ll be fine. The game starts when? 9:00? P.M.? That […]

The Celtics and the Suns met last night, and beyond the game itself, it was a good snapshot of how both teams have evolved over the past year. Not long ago, neither team was particularly effective on the offensive glass. Boston finished 18th in offensive rebound rate last season, Phoenix 26th. This year, both are […]

Back home and following pair of days off, the Blackhawks host the Minnesota Wild on St. Patrick’s Day for a national broadcast on TNT, the first of consecutive meetings between the two divisional foes. The Wild are largely in cruise control for the rest of the regular season, as they’re pretty solidly locked into the No. 3 spot in the Central Division, almost guaranteed to be facing the Dallas Stars in the first round of the playoffs. Minnesota is six points behind Dallas’ 94 and the Star...

When Syracuse won its lone national title in 2003, it did so by leaning heavily not just on future NBA Hall of Famer Carmelo Anthony but also fellow freshman Gerry McNamara. Nine years later, John Calipari proved age was just a number by starting three freshmen and bringing Kentucky its eighth championship. And three years […]

BOSTON — Jaylen Brown always knew he could do this. In July, on the last day of his annual educational camp for Boston youth — the Bridge program — I spoke with the Celtics star. The team had just lost Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday to trades and Al Horford and Luke Kornet to free […]

The Miami Heat saw their season-high seven-game win streak broke in their previous loss to the Orlando Magic.

Now Miami is back to the play-in seventh seed at a 38-30 […] The post GAME PREVIEW: Heat set to rematch Hornets in Charlotte, aiming for bounce back win appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .

The overhaul of the Seattle Seahawks backfield following the departure of Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet injury created opportunities for new contributors in the offensive rotation. One of those additions is Emmanuel Wilson, who arrives after three seasons with the Green Bay Packers on a short-term deal. Wilson isn’t a headline acquisition, but the […]

At this point in the season, each win has to feel like finding gold. Monday night in Los Angeles wasn’t the prettiest, but it kept the goal alive to snatch the first seed, which would at least give them a seventh game at home against all West opponents in the playoffs. On top of that, […]

BOSTON — In the final weeks of the regular season, Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla has emphasized a simple but effective message. “Give the game what it needs,” Mazzulla has preached.
