The Brooklyn Nets played the Miami Heat for a second straight time tonight. It was an honest remake. The same characters appeared. There were a few creative spins on the script and plot.

Here’s a case in point: (The Nolan Arenado one cracks me up.) So here’s tonight’s challenge for the Purple Row Night Owls: Give us your best Colorado Rockies “reality” and “LinkedIn” […]
The Wizards out-tanked the Jazz tonight. Collier, and Ace had enough of losing and took this game over. While the Jazz did slip a spot in the lottery odds, remember, it’s a marathon, not a sprint, and the Jazz still have plenty of time to jump back up. For now we can all enjoy the […]

The game started well enough for Michigan State. They […]

If there’s one thing people love in a blowout game, especially if night has fallen on the second game of opening day at home and those temps are falling? It’s a walk-off home run and Bella Bacon’s solo job was doubt-free from the moment it left the bat. This game had just ended 8-0 and […]

Pregame The Penguins get Blake Lizotte back from injury and give Arturs Silovs his turn in net, otherwise it’s same as it has been when in the Crosby-less times. The visiting Buffalo Sabres bring this wagon into town. First period The first period is defined by four penalty calls; two on each team. The early […]
Wisconsin turned in a dominant effort in the third period to cruise to a 7-3 win over Penn State on Thursday night. The Nittany Lions have suddenly gone cold with the postseason approaching.

The Utah Jazz won (or lost, from a tanking lens) against the Washington Wizards, with a final score of 122-112 Funny enough, Trae Young made his Wizards debut tonight. Conveniently, he was on a 20-minute restriction and didn’t play in the final quarter of the game (but what about anti-competitive behavior and integrity of the […]

Join Ari Temkin and Jacob Infante as they break down what that means for the draft board, what Daniel Jeremiah’s “sweet spot at 50–75” theory means for Chicago’s draft strategy, and whether […]
What an up-and-down season it has been for Kentucky Basketball, as shown by just the last two games: A dominating win over Vanderbilt, where the Wildcats led for 38+ minutes, followed by a double-digit loss to Texas A&M just 72 hours later, allowing a 27-3 run. While locked in an at-large bid in the NCAA […]
