The MLB Hot Stove is finally starting to get more heat as trades are being made, and the ones that haven’t yet, are intensifying in talks. And on the side, we are starting to see the reliever market begin to set itself, with key signings recently being made. Jeurys Familia and Joe Kelly are the […]
And the drought will now extend to 31 years and counting. For the second-straight year, the Los Angeles Dodgers came up short again in the World Series, leaving them trophyless since 1988. They faced adversity all regular and postseason long, but the 108-win Boston Red Sox was a mountain too high to climb. The championship […]
Any other year, the major talk surrounding the Washington Nationals would be regarding how much of a bust they were this season. However, most of the discussion has been about Bryce Harper’s pending free agency. He is perceived to be the most prominent free agent in MLB history because of his superstar talent and age. […]
We are in the age of player mobility. We are seeing less and fewer star players staying with their original teams by departing via free agency like LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and Gordon Hayward or by demanding a trade like Kyrie Irving, Paul George, and Kawhi Leonard. Chris Paul falls under both categories as he […]
The New York Knicks signed Joakim Noah to, very possibly, the least valuable contract of all time in the summer of 2016, giving him a four-year contract worth over $72.5 million. Noah, simply put, isn’t good at basketball anymore. He’s too slow for the modern game, can’t spread the floor at all, isn’t athletic (relative […]
The Sixers were expected to make runs at some big names like LeBron James and Kawhi Leonard, but they fell up short and were unable to add a high-level player to their core. Some guys on the 76ers roster may be upset by this, but not Joel Embiid. He doesn’t want to play with the […]
The Philadelphia Phillies made one big lineup-boosting trade ahead of Tuesday’s trade deadline, acquiring all-star catcher Wilson Ramos from the Tampa Bay Rays for just a player to be named later. Ramos is having a fantastic year, and, because of an injury, the Phillies got him for an absolute bargain. He was voted the starting […]
Isaiah Thomas signed a one year contract for the veteran’s minimum with the Denver Nuggets this offseason. There are reports out that Isaiah called up Boston Celtics decision-maker Danny Ainge and made it known that if the opportunity were available, he’d love to come back to Boston. That’s obviously not what ended up happening this […]
The Philadelphia 76ers are trying to acquire a three-point shooter. It’s far and away their biggest team need beyond getting a superstar. The Sixers lost a couple of three-point threats this offseason when Marco Belinelli returned to the Spurs and Ersan Ilyasova went back to the Milwaukee Bucks. Philly was tied for 8th last year […]
The Philadelphia 76ers unceremoniously parted ways with former President of Basketball Operations Bryan Colangelo after the burner account scandal in May. Since then, head coach Brett Brown has taken over in the role on an interim basis. He’s handled the draft, including a draft night trade, and the bulk of free agency thus far. The […]
This wild and turbulent offseason has finally begun to simmer down in terms of blockbuster deals and striking moves, both by management and players. LeBron James joined the Los Angeles Lakers and Demarcus Cousins agreed to a 1-year deal with the defending champion Golden State Warriors. Many high caliber players chose to resign with their […]
LeBron James made his first public appearance since signing with the Los Angeles Lakers over the weekend. LeBron attended the Lakers’ summer league playoff game and received a standing ovation when he entered the arena donning some Lakers shorts. LeBron James enters w/ Lakers shorts to a standing ovation from Lakers fans at Las Vegas […]
