The NBA would love seven games of this, but will have to settle for one … and change, if there’s a repeat of whatever clock malfeasance occurred in Los Angeles on Saturday night. Another footnote of the LeBron James-Stephen Curry book was entered, with the Warriors coming away with a 128-121 victory, and it’s likely those two will do this dance again in a little over a month in the Play-In Tournament — although it’s not completely out of the question Golden State or the Lakers… Source link

Patrick Mahomes lost for the first time in his career as an underdog in a “24-20 game” that didn’t feature quite as much offense as fantasy managers hoped (Josh Allen/Mahomes matchups entered averaging 60.0 points per game). Still, Stefon Diggs was the WR2 and Allen was the QB3 this week (while hurdling hopeless defenders). Allen led Buffalo on a casual 96-yard, 73-second TD drive at the end of the first half, which of course was countered by Harrison Butker nailing a 62-yard field goal… Source link

LAS VEGAS – Thiago Moises has been on Christos Giagos’ radar for a while now. Giagos (19-9 MMA, 5-5 UFC) faces Moises (15-6 MMA, 4-4 UFC) on Saturday’s UFC on ESPN 38 main card, which takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The main card airs on ESPN following prelims on ESPN2/ESPN+. Both RFA alums, Giagos is surprised the pair never fought when they were under the same banner before, but sees now as the perfect timing for the matchup. “I think he’s very technical, a very good… Source link

Technically, Super Bowl LVI will feature the worst matchup in history. Now that’s not to say that the game is going to be bad. Based on how Sunday’s conference championships — and the rest of the postseason — went, the game is bound to be plenty entertaining. The game, however, will be the lowest-seeded Super Bowl matchup in history. The Cincinnati Bengals, who entered the postseason as a No. 4 seed, knocked off the Kansas City Chiefs in a wild overtime battle in the AFC Championship… Source link
