Football is a violent game, a collision sport full of athletes who are getting bigger, stronger, and faster, with protective equipment only able to do so much. For teams, like the Cleveland Browns, injury luck (or lack thereof) is one of many variables that can dramatically impact the outcome of a game, a season, or […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers obliterated the Brooklyn Nets 112-84 in their first game back from the All-Star break. Let’s see who won the night. WINNER – James Harden’s Creation Advantage creation is probably the single most important trait in basketball. Can you beat a defense and get them into rotation?

The Brooklyn Nets snuck into the All-Star break in an optimal lottery position and without a crowd of accusers behind them, alleging they’ve compromised the game’s integrity and warped its competitive nature.

Back in action. It hasn’t been all bad in Brooklyn. The Nets have won two of their last three, and Egor Demin even found himself on the winning side at the Rising Stars Challenge (coached by Vince Carter). Not a bad weekend for the rookie. On the other sideline, Kenny Atkinson has to be feeling […]
