In case it wasn’t already obvious, it’s now clear why Austin Reaves turned down the Lakers’ four-year, $89.2 million extension this past offseason. Reaves was already off to a phenomenal start this season with 50 points, 20 assists, 12 rebounds and a trio of three-pointers across his first two games. But with both Luka Dončić […]
The Dallas Mavericks (1-2) host the Oklahoma City Thunder (3-0) tonight at 7:30 PM at the American Airlines Center. Can the Mavs balance their record at 2-2 or will the defending champs remain undefeated? Dallas notched its first win with a 139-129 victory over the Toronto Raptors. In what should be an early-season measuring stick […]
Barcelona forward Marcus Rashford has sent out a message after Sunday’s defeat to Real Madrid in El Clasico left Hansi Flick’s side five points behind Los Blancos at the top of the table. Rashford grabbed an assist in the game but couldn’t prevent the hosts from taking all three points at the Santiago Bernabeu. He’s […]
The NBA has sent a memo to its 30 franchises detailing its reaction to the betting scandal that rocked the league last week, resulting in federal arrests of Portland Trail Blazers Head Coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier. Shams Charania of ESPN relayed the text of the memo via X. Given the […]
Beleaguered Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups has barely been seen in public since he was arrested and arraigned last Thursday. Long-time friend and former boss Tyronn Lue told media, before the Blazers took on the Los Angeles Clippers, that Billups was alright, considering the circumstances. When you’ve known somebody so long, you can just […]
On Sunday night in downtown Minneapolis, the Minnesota Timberwolves opened their home schedule with a 114-110 win over the Indiana Pacers. Given the Pacers’ lengthy injury report, it was a game the Wolves needed to win. Despite Anthony Edwards playing just over three minutes, leaving the game with right hamstring tightness, the Timberwolves found a […]
So much complaining about the officials and how they favor the Celtics. The refs have a funny way of favoring the Celtics by giving Detroit 36 free throws to 24 for the Celtics. If every Celtic gave the effort of Payton Pritchard on the boards, the Celtics would be a lot better. Shortest guy on the court led the team in rebounds. On to New Orleans and hopefully a win. My favorites are in bold. What are yours? This needs to be a win. Home opener, ...
The NBA isn’t truly back until a Lakers opponent crashes out over free throws and, boy, are we so back. On Sunday, Austin Reaves poured in a career-high 51 points to lead the shorthanded Lakers past the Kings in Sacramento. It was a remarkable performance from Reaves, who only continues to improve every year in […]
Boo! Halloween may be at the tail end of this week, but the spooks and scares are all over the Toronto Raptors’ opening schedule. After getting bullied by Giannis Antetokounmpo, Anthony Davis, and Cooper Flagg, the Raps’ schedule doesn’t get any less daunting. This week’s opponents feature an alien, Aquaman, a Spider, and someone likely […]
For the second game in a row, the Nets almost pulled off the impossible. After trailing by as much as 26 in the third quarter, the Nets were led by a red hot Cam Thomas, whose scoring single handedly brought them back against the Spurs. But yet again, the inexperience and youth of our beloved […]
After a nice trial run last week, the Chicago Bulls are about to sprint into the 2025-26 season. They are in store for a busy and difficult week, beginning with a matchup against one of the Eastern Conference’s darkhorse contenders. Then, after welcoming Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan back into the United Center for a revenge game, they will finish the week with two straight against the New York Knicks. As great as the 2-0 start has been, this week will tell us A LOT about who this team re...
It still seems unfinished. That’s the thought that kept running through my head all throughout Sunday’s tilt with the Brooklyn Nets. The Spurs are undefeated. The vibes are high. Everyone is pleased as punch with the roaring start this new season has gotten off to. Wemby has arrived. Castle has ascended. Harper looks legit. The […]
Even the greatest teams in NBA history lost a few games before making a postseason run toward the title, you know what I’m saying? The Knickerbockers will keep their road trip going with a matchup against wannabe Knick Giannis tomorrow, and that’s all we care about now. Here are some quotes based on comments from […]
On Sunday night, the Blackhawks lost a game to the Los Angeles Kings. Early in the third period, forward Ilya Mikheyev put his speed on display while killing a penalty. He was in the process of creating a potential scoring chance — skating 1-on-3, I might add — when he got tripped. Mikheyev went into the boards hard behind the LA net and left the game. He did not return. Ilya Mikheyev has not taken a shift since sliding into the boards hard here: pic.twitter.com/W4xX1L5UKC — BHF (@B...
The Cleveland Cavaliers are back on the road after a one-game stint at home to face the Detroit Pistons. The Cavaliers, through three games, definitely are looking to put the pieces together.

#1 – Jaylen Brown scoring performance 41 points on 65% True Shooting, 12 made shots, 12 made free throws — Jaylen Brown looked like himself offensively last night. As we’ve seen before, he didn’t hesitate to go after mismatches like Duncan Robinson in the first quarter. As we’ll look into in #4, the Celtics also […]

Same city, different arena. After falling to the Los Angeles Clippers 114-107 on Sunday evening, the Portland Trail Blazers will suit up again on Monday to face the LeBron- and Luka-less Los Angles Lakers. No rest advantage though for the Lakers as they played Sunday evening in Sacramento. There are lots of positives to take […]
The undermanned Milwaukee Bucks lost 118-113 to the Cleveland Cavaliers in a game that had a playoff feel to it.
