We continue our pop quiz series with the Bucks’ non-Giannis forward corps. Only one of these guys played a full season with the Bucks, but all arguably exceeded expectations given how low those were due to prior underperformance or injury. Let’s first review their years before the questions. Season in a snippet Ousmane Dieng 30 […]

With the conclusion of Week 12, there is only one week remaining in the 2026 NCAA Softball season. Entering the crucial final week of the season, I figured that I would switch things up a bit. The first article of the week will be the power rankings, and the second article will be a scenario-spotting […]
UW completed their last open practice before the spring game yesterday. ESPN revealed their “Prospect X”. And will we see the NCAA basketball tournaments expand to 76 teams? Those and more for your Wednesday Dots. Football Dots UW Athletics Dots
When news of Kevin Durant’s initial knee injury first released, the Houston Rockets made the injury out to be a relatively minor thing. In fact, we didn’t even hear about the injury until Friday – one day before Game 1 of the Rockets’ series against the Los Angeles Lakers. Rockets coach Ime Udoka stated that […]
BOSTON — To say that Tuesday’s Game 5 between the Celtics and 76ers was ugly is a massive understatement. The Celtics missed 14 consecutive field goals to close out the game, got outscored by 17 points in the fourth quarter, and watched their own fans file out with several minutes left in the ball game. […]
While us Knicks fans rejoiced during a Tuesday night beatdown of the Hawks that gave our ‘Bockers a 3-2 series lead, it was a pretty horrific day for the sport as a whole. Around the same time on Tuesday afternoon, the NCAA revealed its plans to expand the NCAA Tournament to 76 teams (yuck), and […]
Well, here we are again. The last What We Learned I did was in the Spurs’ third-to-last game of the regular season, when they hosted none other than the Portland Trail Blazers: a game they won despite no Victor Wembanyama or Stephon Castle in large part thanks to De’Aaron Fox. It turned into more of […]
The Atlanta Hawks dropped a pivotal Game 5 as they fell to a convincing 126-97 defeat to the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night. Jalen Johnson led the Hawks in scoring with 18 points, while Dyson Daniels added 17 points. For the Knicks, Jalen Brunson scored 39 points with OG Anunoby […]
The Brooklyn Nets made an early entry into the offseason. We knew it would be this way for several weeks, but it’s still a bit striking to see a bushel of teams duking it out on national television every night, and our guys cosplaying as Arthur Morgan or sitting court side with Ice Spice. Yes, […]
With top college basketball players making well into the seven figures, it’s never been more tempting for underclassmen to return to school. Could Arizona’s Koa Peat be the next notable college player to return for more year? Some NBA teams think so, according to the most recent NBA mock draft from ESPN’s Jeremy Woo. ESPN […]
On a recent episode of the Managing Madrid Podcast, the post-game show after Real Madrid’s 1 – 1 draw away to Real Betis in La Liga, Kiyan Sobhani, Leah Revelle, and Sam Sharpe broke down the performance thoroughly. On the episode, the crew discussed a lot of big picture discussion, especially given that the match […]
An emergency appendectomy. Just 10 days before the start of the playoffs. If you had to guess which player it happened to, you’d say “Joel Embiid” before someone even asked. Just another bizarre and unfortunate moment for a player whose career has been derailed by them. But for one night, there was no talk of […]
1. Abysmal 4th Quarter Going into the fourth quarter of Game 5, the Celtics allowed the 76ers to get back into the game, cutting a 13 point halftime lead to 1 point at 86-85. Boston would then go on to have one of the worst fourth quarters I have ever seen, being out scored 28-11 […]
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to come to the conclusion that the Dallas Mavericks desperately need guard help. Cooper Flagg was thrusted into the role early, which obviously led to a ton of early struggles. While development was certainly had, playing point is never going to be the way to best optimize the newest […]
In Tuesday’s Brotherhood Playoff Action, Philadelphia mauled Boston, 113-97, New York hammered Atlanta, 126-97, and San Antonio eliminated Portland, 114-95. Jayson Tatum finished with 24 points, 16 rebounds, 4 assists and three steals for the Celtics. Boston is still up 3-2, but they could have closed the Sixers out. Too bad. The Knicks are up […]
The number one seed Detroit Pistons find themselves on the losing end of their playoff series against the Orlando Magic, with their biggest flaws being exposed.
Klay Thompson’s time in Dallas certainly has not played out the way he envisioned. His dreams of playing alongside Luka Doncic were cut down far too soon on Christmas of 2024, and yet, here, in the spring of 2026, Thompson remains a Maverick. Not a peep was heard from Thompson this season about his role […]

Barcelona’s hunt for a new number nine has shifted toward London as the club looks to add some much-needed bite to Hansi Flick’s attack. While the team is cruising toward a league title and already has the Supercopa in the bag, winning the UEFA Champions League remains a dream and it may require a clinical […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers have gotten away from what’s worked in games 1 and 2. The Toronto Raptors deserve a ton of credit for that. Their physicality with Cleveland’s star backcourt has made it difficult for the Cavs to establish any kind of momentum. At the same time, the Cavs simply need to be better. Let’s […]
Tanking around the NBA has been nothing short of a hot topic over the last several months. In an attempt to curb it, the league has delivered multiple different “anti-tanking” proposals to team executives to consider. The three presented last month, with one — which would expand the lottery from 14 to 18 teams, where […] The post How the NBA’s new lottery proposal affects the Miami Heat appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .

BOSTON — Joel Embiid conquered his postseason demons on Tuesday night. He overcame the Boston Celtics at TD Garden in a do-or-die Game 5 to keep the Philadelphia 76ers alive to see another day. Down 3-1 following back-to-back Boston victories in Philadelphia, Embiid was ruled probable when Sixers coach Nick Nurse took to the podium […]
It’s just after one o’clock a.m. I have been in the Frost Bank Center for seven hours. After an eight hour work day. Don’t get me wrong, I am not complaining. This has been the best year of my life as far as all things Spurs go. I’ve been to more games, sat in on […]
