Coming out of the all-star break, a sprint to the finish line. With the NBA being the most wide open as it's ever been and talent spread out across the league, we are due for a postseason for the ages. 2021-2022 will be an all-time postseason. One outside criticism of the NBA is the lack of parity. But with...
Being on Twitter during what was an eventful NBA trade deadline is often a reactionary and toxic place. The Sabonis to Sacramento rumors existed for a while, but being traded for Haliburton sent twitter into a spiral. You'll read all sorts of tweets like:
The Celtics have been an underwhelming team since making it to the Eastern Conference Finals in 2020. Last year, they finished with a mediocre 36-36 record, and got bounced out of the first round of the playoffs in only 5 games. This season, they started off the year 17-19 during the 2021 portion of the schedule. Boston was in danger...
Out of seemingly nowhere, Kyler Murray deleted all Arizona Cardinals content from his social media and unfollowed the team. Depending on what generation you're in, you may or may not feel that's a big deal. I think it shows that, at the very least, he's annoyed with the Arizona Cardinals front office. And with the fact that multiple elite...
In a trade deadline season that might include blockbuster trades like Ben Simmons, Domantas Sabonis, John Collins, and CJ McCollum to name a few, the best acquisition for the 2021-2022 season will be Jae'Sean Tate.

I've never written about tennis, not really that big of a fan of tennis, but I decided to branch out for this week's prediction because why not. My bold prediction is that Felix Auger-Aliassime will win the Australian Open.
Currently occupying the 7th seed in the Eastern Conference, the Charlotte Hornets won't have history on their side if they maintain their position. Since 2000, there has only been one 7 seed that has one their first round matchup in the playoffs (2010 Spurs.) That being said, the Hornets will buck tradition in the upcoming NBA playoffs and win...
Romelu Lukaku, just a little over four months into his massive transfer move back to Chelsea, has found himself involved in some serious drama. Lukaku sat down with Sky Italy and gave them an interview saying how much he feels disrespected at Chelsea and that Tuchel has picked a system that does not favor him, explaining why he has...
As of the morning of December 20th, 2021, the Memphis Grizzlies, with a record of 19-12, sat 4th in the western conference only behind the Jazz, Warriors, and the Suns. In the last 12 games, Memphis has gone 10-2 without their star point guard Ja Morant. They beat Miami by 15, Lakers by 13, and set the record for largest...
Teams with talent the level of Joel Embiid tend to retain at least some relevance in the basketball landscape. However, these Philadelphia 76ers are not a typical team. Controversy and turmoil surround the team, and there's no obvious end in sight. The team's second star, Ben Simmons is counting down the days until he can be free from the...
