HOUSTON — The Celtics will be severely short-handed when they face the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night on the second night of a back-to-back. Boston will be without Anfernee Simons, who was reportedly traded to the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday, and without Sam Hauser, who is dealing with a right thumb sprain. In addition to […]
With pitchers and catchers set to report to Spring Training in just a couple of weeks, the Astros’ farm system continues to take shape. While the system has undergone significant changes in recent years due to promotions and trades, there remains intriguing talent throughout the organization. Here are three prospects who could be poised for […]
Baldy names 49ers’ top offseason priority to close the NFC gap “Defensively, you have to get a lot better,” Baldinger said. “Seattle’s defense is the number one defense in football (in points allowed). New England’s was the fourth-best defense in football. Denver’s was the third-best. Houston was [the second-best]. You’ve got to have a top-ten […]

Last offseason, it felt like the Texans had a very strong group heading into the regular season. You had Joe Mixon, who, when healthy, is one of the best running backs in the league, penciled in as the starter. You also drafted a young, promising rookie in Woody Marks out of USC, and added a […]
Admit it… Some part of you wants it. Some flames never die. Some memories gradually fade into the abyss. Others are visceral. You could reach out and grab that moment. Your instinct is to re-live it, because psychologically, you never stopped living it in the first place. James Harden. The Beard. Based on demographics, the […]
I believe Houston needs to move on from their CF. Astros fans, here I am again, the voice of reason. A few weeks ago, I floated the idea that it might be time to trade Jeremy Peña. Now I’m back with another uncomfortable but necessary conversation: the Houston Astros should seriously consider trading Jake Meyers […]
The deal now gives the Astros, or any new team, two years of cost certainty. Earlier today, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reported that the Houston Astros have come to a contract agreement with 3B Isaac Paredes on a 2-year, $22.7M deal. This deal having a second season with a club option (unless he finished Top […]
It’s only a motion away. Could there be an Astros and Framber Valdez reunion? Maybe the odds are better than we previously thought? Monday night on AREA 45 on Sportsradio 610, I posed the idea of the Astros getting back in on Framber Valdez with a short term, high AAV type deal with opt outs […]
Happy NBA trade deadline week! With this year’s NBA Trade Deadline approaching this Thursday at 2:00 PM central, there’s no shortage of trade rumors going around, and even though a deal seemed to be unlikely, Brett Sigel with ClutchPoints.com reported that the Rockets have had interest in acquiring another center. “With Steven Adams out for […]
In an era of one-year contracts and player-friendly deals, free agency is a significant aspect of the team building process. Especially for the Texans, as they still seek their first AFC Championship appearance, all it could take is one or two key free agent decisions. According to Jason from Over The Cap, the Houston Texans […]
Heading into the 2025-26 NBA season, there was chatter that the Houston Rockets could have a trio of All-Stars, comprised of Amen Thompson, the newly-acquired Kevin Durant and Alperen Sengun. The first half of the season is over and the All-Star rosters are set. It’s official. Unless a player declines, due to injury, which we […]
Every good analyst has to start with an acknowledgement of limitations. As much as we might want to rely on the numbers on the back of the baseball card, each season exists in its own universe. One of the axioms I always go by is that I don’t really start worrying or getting excited until […]
BIG PICTURE: In one respect, this season was a massive success. The team tied its record for most wins in a regular season, matched its longest regular season winning streak and counting the playoffs, set the franchise winning streak record. It finally won a road playoff game. It got three players on the All-Pro team […]
The Houston Rockets played Monday night’s game without Kevin Durant. Add in the already missing Fred VanVleet and Steven Adams, and you have practically half of your rotation in street clothes. While Durant sat with an ankle sprain, it allowed NBA All-Star snub Alperen Sengun to state his case, as he went off for 39 […]
The Dallas Mavericks (19-30) will look to turn around a four-game losing skid when hosting the Boston Celtics (31-18) on Tuesday, February 3, 2026 at American Airlines Center.

The Mavericks enter this matchup after a 111-107 loss to the Rockets on Saturday. Jaylen Brown scored a team-best 30 points for the Celtics in the victory. The Mavericks got a tea...
Chicago Bulls shooting guard Coby White has been the name perhaps most frequently bandied about in trade buzz for the club this season. Evan Sidery has reported that Chicago has little appetite for inking White to a new contract when he hits free agency this summer. The Bulls have thus far failed to come to terms with White on an extension, which has driven trade speculation ahead of the Feb. 5 NBA Trade Deadline. The Minnesota Timberwolves, clearly in need for a ballhandling guard upgrad...

Joe Espada has been upfront about wanting to start the season with a six-man rotation. Hunter Brown, Cristian Javier, Mike Burrows and Tatsuya Imai appear to have four of those spots locked up, but what about the other two?
