Suns vs Bucks game was insane last night. Constant back and forth battle with a really weird ending.

Refs called a time out for Milwaukee with about two seconds left in the fourth, even though neither team had possession of the ball. Wasn't even close. Major mistake that could have tipped the game to the Bucks had they made their last shot.

Then, in OT, tied with one Suns possession left, Bucks mildly fouled Booker with 0.3 seconds left. Booker made the first free throw and intentionally biffed the second. Suns win by 1.

Saw that too. No possession timeout was wrong but the foul at the end of the game was obvious NOT to call. Still...a win is a win on what's a start of a big Eastern road trip.

'nother point guard down for the Nugs. Monte Morris out with a bad hamstring, not expected back any time soon. They signed Austin Rivers to a 10 day contract. The only other point guard on the roster is 30 year old rookie Facundo Campazzo, who played professionally in Argentina and Spain from 2008-2020.

The Nuggets have like 30 small forwards on the roster.

I didn't even realize that Rivers was out of the league.

Nah, Lakers don’t need to be risking getting into the play-in games with their 2 best players likely trying to shake off some rust

Welp, CBJ seems to be going for the tank since they have nothing else to play for. And that'll be the season. Cavs suck, Blue Jackets suck.

NHL's new TV deals are done.

ESPN is their primary partner, paying out 400 million per year for 7 years.
Warner Bros is the secondary partner, paying out 225 million per year for 7 years.

Both outbid NBC, who was previously the primary partner at 200 million per year.

ESPN will air games across ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN+ while Warner will split games between TNT and TBS, with the possibility of some games coming to HBO Max.

The NHL's Canadian deal was signed in 2013. It was a 12 year deal worth over 5 billion dollars. That's an insane number considering when it was signed and the fact that there are only 7 Canadian teams versus 25 American teams (including Seattle).

Hockey is to Canada as baseball is to the USA ... compare some of the MLB deal and signing .

Nuggets still winning with a starting backcourt of Facundo Campazzo and PJ Dozier. No Murray, no Barton, no Morris.

I will hear no arguments to the contrary; Jokic is the MVP.

Suns end their playoff drought by beating the Clippers tonight. You have to go back to 2010 when they were last in the postseason.

Soooo the 5th most popular sport that no one under the age of 50 gives a shit about?

Baseball hasn't been America's pasttime in over 30 years.
Baseball sucks. It’s the litmus test for being a dumb cunt.

Big improvements and probably change the locker room culture, book seem to be lot happier playing winning basketball and he don’t have to score 30+ and still lost the game , credit to adding jcrowder and cpaul.

Bol doesn't practice hard and the Nuggets are too loaded at forward. He's not ready to take minutes away from Gordon, Millsap, Porter, or Green.
