With the first round of the NBA playoffs already in the books, the Suns’ offseason plan for 2024 has become a big talking point around the league.  No team seems to be in a worse position than them right now. New team owner Mat Ishbia tried to dismiss the narrative about them being in trouble, but he should get most of the blame for putting the team in this position in the first place. While everybody in his shoes would’ve made that Kevin Durant deal, trading for Bradley Beal was a huge mistake, and one didn’t have to be a basketball savant to realize that. With that in mind, and consider ..read more

At the beginning of the NBA season, not many people loved the Minnesota Timberwolves title chances 2024. They had lost in the first round in just five games, and they didn’t seem to be in the same tier as teams like the Denver Nuggets. Fast forward to today, and they proved to be one of the best teams in the Western Conference. They flirted with the No. 1 seed in the west, and even though they fell short of that goal late in the season, they proved that they’re the real deal in the first round.

Game Five saw another Luka Dončić postseason masterpiece. It was also another James Harden Playoff dud. The outcome was an almost knockout blow to the Clippers’ Playoff chances in 2024. Heading to Dallas, and staring down the barrel of elimination, Los Angeles has again seen their postseason disrupted by Kawhi Leonard’s injury issues. Meanwhile, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the Oklahoma City Thunder to a first-round sweep of the New Orleans Pelicans and Paul George is yet to agree a contract extension. Dealing with a continued knee issue, it’s unclear if Leonard will play again in this ser ..read more

Nowadays, no Brandon Belt news is actually bad news for the former all-star and two-time World Series champ. A month into the 2024 MLB season, Belt remains a free agent despite his plans to play this year. So what’s holding up Brandon Belt’s free agency and why is a player who posted an OPS of .859 last year still unsigned? Reasons Brandon Belt Remains Unsigned To be fair, there hasn’t been much Brandon Belt news lately because he’s probably not among the greatest first basemen of all time.
