For the second time in his tenure with the Los Angeles Clippers, newly acquired star Kawhi Leonard missed the back end of a national televised back-to-back game, which is being referred to as “load management.” Following Leonard’s absence for the second straight week, the public, and sports most notable media critics wasted no time voicing their concerns, or in few cases, support of player workload management. From a team perspective, I honestly understand why it makes sense

It has been less than 72 hours, and Russell Westbrook already has his name being thrown around in trade talks following the unexpected departure of Paul George, who was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers. If you didn’t think of the Paul George trade as a rebuilding move, then obviously you don’t know the business side of sports. Considering all the money the Thunder had invested into Westbrook and George and having to settle for FOUR straight first round playoff exits...it wa

Well it was good while it lasted…kind of, is what every Cleveland Cavalier fan should be saying today as the era of title contention has found yet another obstacle in its path as the Cavs have parted ways with 3-year head coach, Tyronn Lue. Optimism for a smooth, positive post-Bron era has been handicapped by the firing, and leaves a lot of questions for the Cavs front office for years to come. From what seemed like a community that only asked for more and more from LeBron ga

29 total picks later, a pair of No. 1 draft picks, over a dozen trades, some major front office changes and a whole lot of belief from the fans of Philly; and “The Process,” is finally starting to pay dividends as the 76er’s are now on their way back to relevancy. Once composed of multiple first round draft picks and little to no chemistry, the Philadelphia 76er’s now have an identity, an identity that is no longer associated with losing, but now to prominence and show no sig

Last night, the NBA witnessed its’ first ever on-court murder, and it was nationally televised for the entire world to see. In a much anticipated part two game of a one sided rivalry, James Harden and the Houston Rockets ran a full on practice with the Los Angeles Clippers. There were a lot of exciting moments in last night’s game, including Harden single handedly outscoring the lifeless Clippers, 17-12 in the first quarter and not to mention, they snagged their 14th consecut

With Kawhi Leonard’s return to the court looking more and more unlikely, one could argue there is a rift brewing between Coach Pop and the superstar. Leonard who has SLOWLY, fallen out of the game changer, yet alone franchise difference maker conversation, has all the sudden rapidly boarded the next player out of town conversation…as wild as that sounds. Leonard, who had been shut down due to a quad injury for well over two months, has just been medically cleared to return to

With it only being 14 days into February, not only is it the day to show love to your significant other, but a day for me to share what I have fell in love with in sports thus far this month. Underdogs to top dogs: The Philadelphia Eagles did exactly what nobody outside of the state of Pennsylvania thought would do. Former backup and resurgent quarterback Nick Foles and the “underdog” Eagles dethroned the Belichick and Brady led Super Bowl empire of a sixth Super Bowl victory

In many sports, it's common that an athlete's prime starts to kick in around their mid 20's lasting up until their early 30's. Once a player hits their prime, they too, begin to tap into their greatness, and while not all players can be great, not all players can be recognized for their efforts. Often times, players on the rise are over shadowed by the players who are now classified as vets and players who a called upon to lay the groundwork for those after them. Because I ca

With the NFL football season coming back into the lives of many anxious football fans, it is inevitable that we find a reason to get excited about what’s to come in the 2017 – ’18 season. Whether it’s Beast Mode’s growing chemistry with Derek Carr and offense, Le’Veon Bell’s contract saga or maybe, the quarterback competition in Houston between Tom Savage and first round draft pick Deshaun Watson or maybe, just maybe the anticipation of what the Cleveland Browns could do with

Now before indulging into free agent contract talk, let’s understand that Kyle Lowry is not, nor will be the hottest name to hit the list of free agent names this off season, but will be in high demand by teams in need of a veteran offensive orchestrator. While Steph Curry, Jrue Holiday, George Hill, Jeff Teague, D. Rose and Rondo top the marquee of point guards to become free agents after the season, there’s no reason Lowry can’t make his case for a top priority pickup. Belo
