Tracy McGrady: I think LeBron has been amazing for 22 freaking years. And he’s been the best basketball player for, you know, God knows how long. But if you put him in one-on-one? I think he’ll get crushed. Yeah, I think he’ll get crushed — amongst guys that are actually in the NBA. And I’m sure LeBron would tell you that. Because his game is naturally built for five-on-five. He’s not a one-on-one basketball player. Kobe is a one-on-one basketball player. Kyrie is a one-on-one basketball player. James Harden — these guys are one-on-one basketball players. And LeBron can’t do…
Inter Milan star midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu admitted he would love to play for Turkish powerhouse Galatasaray in the future. Speaking to Turkish outlet Sabah via FCInterNews, the 31-year-old reiterated his commitment to the Nerazzurri. Hakan Calhanoglu has turned into one of the world’s best midfielders since swapping AC Milan for Inter in 2021. Indeed, after a topsy-turvy spell at the Rossoneri, the Turkey international has blossomed in the blue part of the city. Last summer, he turned down an approach from Bayern Munich to pledge his loyalty to the San Siro. However, Calhanoglu may not be immune to potential calls…
Last night, AC Milan drew against Inter in the first leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final, but they were hard done by by the referee, some believe. There can definitely be gripes with the result last night, with Milan looking rather positive, especially after going a goal up against the Nerazzurri. However, a 67th-minute equaliser means that the two will go into the second leg with it all to play for. That was not the only frustration for the Rossoneri, though, as some believe that the refereeing performance of Michael Fabbri was ‘inefficient’, as stated by Gazzetta dello Sport this…
The Los Angeles Lakers are a very, very good team — that much is certain, but as we draw closer to the NBA Playoffs this team is looking much more like one that could see its run end in the Western Conference Finals, at best. When it comes to big men at the top of the conference the Thunder have Chet Holmgren, the Rockets boast Alperen Şengün, the Nuggets have the incomparable Nikola Jokic. The Lakers? Well, they’ve got Jaxson Hayes. It’s one of the most biggest talent disparities among all the top teams in the NBA, and it could…
Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant was such an important figure for so many of the greatest basketball players the NBA has ever seen. It seems like everyone has a story of some sort of interaction with Kobe, or him inspiring them in some way, shape or form. Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry is no different. Curry is without a doubt one of the greatest players in basketball history and unquestionably the greatest shooter this sport has ever seen. But back when he first came into the league, there were a lot of questions about whether he could hold…
Milan have been repeatedly linked with a move for Guler ever since his emergence at Fenerbahce, and the stories haven’t stopped since he joined Real Madrid. According to CaughtOffside, there are a queue of clubs monitoring his situation as he struggles for playing time. The latest team to show interest in the young attacking midfielder are Liverpool. They add that ‘sources with a close understanding of Guler’s situation have informed CaughtOffside that Liverpool are among the teams monitoring him as a potential transfer target’. The 20-year-old was recently engaged in a social media spat with Reds midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai following…
Both goals came in the second half, with the first being scored by Tammy Abraham in the 47th minute after a lovely turn and finish, before Hakan Calhanoglu hammered in a shot from distance to level things. The return game in three weeks becomes pretty much a one-off fixture given they will start from level pegging, though the Rossoneri will feel like it was a missed opportunity in their ‘home’ game having taken the lead. Below are the key statistics from the game. There is certainly a lot of blue on the board when it comes to the major statistics.…
Once again this year, for the seventh time, Fondazione Milan will take part in the Relay Marathon 2025, a key pillar of the Milano Marathon Charity Programme aimed at raising funds to support the social projects of the participating organisations. On this occasion, Fondazione Milan will run for “AC Milan for All”, an accessibility and inclusion programme that embodies the vision and commitment of the Rossoneri family both on and off the pitch. Specifically, this year, the funds raised will support the Gruppo Sportivo Dilettantistico Non Vedenti Milano ONLUS, which has been promoting autonomy and inclusion through sport for over…
AC Milan have endured a difficult campaign as their focus remains on the Coppa Italia ahead of what is quite a crucial game for both sides in Serie A as they take on Fiorentina at San Siro. In midweek, AC Milan shared a 1-1 draw with arch-rivals Internazionale in the Derby della Madonnina in the first-leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final tie in a game in which Tammy Abraham opened the scoring before Hakan Calhanoglu equalised about 20 minutes later. The Rossoneri, who appointed former Porto manager Sergio Conceicao to replace Paulo Fonseca at the start of the year, have…
While the 2024-25 season is still a couple of months away from finishing, Milan are getting their pieces in place for the next campaign. La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) confirm that Paratici is likely to become the new director, even if there are some clauses to be clarified. With that will come a change in direction: Milan will no longer rely on ‘European’ gambles and instead will try to rebuild an Italian base. This is something that begins with the coach, and there are three names on the table. The first is Antonio Conte, perhaps the candidate who would…
