HBO’s upcoming mini-series on the Los Angeles Lakers is churning up plenty of interest.  Just not from Magic Johnson.  The basketball icon and centerpiece of the 1980s “Showtime” Lakers who won five NBA championships got caught by TMZ’s cameras on Sunday. He was asked his thoughts on the upcoming show titled “Winning Time: The Rise Of The Lakers Dynasty.”  He’s not interested. “I’m not really looking forward to it,” Johnson told TMZ. “I’m gonna leave it at that.” Asked if he’s planning on… Source link

BRONX, N.Y. — Honestly, I hope you all found much more worthwhile activities to occupy your weekends. Once again, the New York Yankees teased us and then showed us who they truly are, a complete mirage. They were shown up at home by a Cleveland Indians club that had nothing to play for. If you don’t believe that Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone and a lot of these players don’t deserve to be shown the door at the conclusion of this season, you need to have your head examined.

Apparently, the heavy wrap on Trae Young‘s shooting shoulder worked. Following an 0-for-5 start from the field, the Atlanta Hawks point guard had his right shoulder wrapped by trainers at the end of the first quarter. Backcourt mate Bogdan Bogdanovic limped to the sideline soon after. The Philadelphia 76ers stretched their first-half lead to 18 points, and the Hawks looked cooked — surely bound for a second straight home loss and a 3-1 uphill climb in the Eastern Conference semifinals.  But… Source link

Last week I grabbed the Giants at 50/1 to win the World Series (you can still get them at 35/1), which seems appealing for a team with MLB’s best record. It’s not ideal San Francisco shares a division with the Padres and Dodgers, but baseball is far more wide open in the playoffs than other sports.  While some may suggest San Francisco is playing over its head or scream small sample (the long odds certainly do), the team’s major improvement at the plate dates to 2020. The Giants have… Source link
