With the Dallas Mavericks squaring off against the L.A. Lakers for the first time in the regular season this year, and for the first time since the departure of Nico (pronounced a$$hole) Harrison, I’m feeling more excited about watching this game than I’d expected. It’s only been like two weeks, but I’m already feeling relief […]

Nebraska vs Iowa 2025: A Loss That Demands Answers There’s a moment in every Nebraska fan’s season where blind optimism crashes headfirst into cold reality.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija’s star is rising, and that’s reflected in the Ringer’s updated rankings of the top 100 players in the NBA. In the updated list dropped on Wednesday, the fast and physical forward jumped to No. 40, leaping 13 spots from his ranking of No. 53 on Oct. 15. The spot […]
The Miami Heat did their part in Wednesday’s 106-103 win over the Milwaukee Bucks. Now, they must wait their fate.

They put themselves in prime position to advance to the […] The post What is at stake for Heat as they await Emirates Cup fate? appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
Tyrese Martin is all about being dependable. For most Nets fans, the first real memory of Martin is easy to pick out. It takes them back a year to last November, when out of the blue he erupted for 30 points in a 127-117 win over the Phoenix Suns. He shot a blistering 10-of-13 from […]

Heading into the 2025-26 season, the Miami Heat were expected to have a bounce back campaign from the Jimmy Butler drama that took over last year. However, not many people expected them to be this good. All of a sudden, Miami has cemented their place amongst the top teams in the Eastern Conference. They are […] The post Erik Spoelstra is already making a legitimate case to earn long overdue award appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .

The Washington Wizards may be in the midst of another season in the tank, but the long-term rebuilding plan is finally starting to show signs of bearing fruit. Alex Sarr began his NBA life as the maligned second overall pick in a weak draft class before putting together a solid, if unspectacular, rookie season. Now […]
Each year, the NBA Cup brings with it some very polarizing court designs across the league. Some teams go for the more subtle route, like the Lakers, while some teams are far more audacious, like the Wolves. All of them, though, look like they’re straight out of NBA 2K, for better and more often for […]
After having been off since Monday night’s 106-102 loss to the Miami Heat, it’s time for the Dallas Mavericks to get back to work. Tonight, it’s the final group stage game in the NBA Cup, as the Mavericks travel to Los Angeles to face off against Luka Doncic and the Lakers. The Lakers are sitting […]

The Lakers took a lot of the buzz out of Friday’s NBA Cup group play finale with their victory over the Clippers on Tuesday. With that win, they sealed their spot in the quarterfinals, topping a group that, realistically, is about as mad as they come this season. However, that doesn’t make Friday’s game against […]
Enzo Maresca delivered some great news in today’s press conference, confirming that not only is Cole Palmer back in training, but he’s fit enough for selection and perhaps even fit enough to start this weekend against Arsenal. Palmer of course may not quite be 100 per cent fit after such a long time out, but […]
This is a continuation from part 1 which you can find here. Dallas Mavericks Simons and a smaller contract (like Chris Boucher) almost works with Daniel Gafford and Klay Thompson. Here again, in theory the money could work if you rerouted a small salary elsewhere. The Celtics would get a quality big man and while […]
Not surprisingly, the Boozer family showed up on Thanksgiving in the United Center to watch Cameron and Cayden compete against Arkansas. You may remember that Carlos played for the Bulls, but it probably didn’t occur to most of you (like it didn’t to us), that Cameron and Cayden had spent time in the United Center […]
