The duo that Milwaukee expected to see a blast from delivered a series of underwhelming performances last season. However, with a whole postseason under their belts, Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo gear up to show off their true colors this time. The point of concern is that it seems Dame does not have much hope for his scoring partner. The Bucks point guard shared his Top 5 players from the NBA a couple of days ago on the Club 520 pod. Surprisingly, he put his teammate Giannis in fifth place! Though putting The Greek Freak in the first place would…
The AC Milan management could give Paulo Fonseca one final new signing before the window closes, but they reportedly need to sell players first. As Corriere dello Sport (via MilanNews) writes this morning, metaphor of the creation of Zlatan Ibrahimovic is stuck at the sixth of seven days which suggests that there is room for further additions. For something to happen however, there is the need to trim down the current size of the squad, also because of the Champions League and Serie A squad list issue, and that means some sales are necessary. After Pierre Kalulu and Tommaso Pobega…

However, the directors intend to thin out Fonseca’s squad a little, with Ismael Bennacer and Alexis Saelemaekers candidates to leave Milanello together with Yacine Adli, who is about to become a new Fiorentina player.

Yacine Adli is closing in on getting a move away from AC Milan after agreeing to join Fiorentina, according to a report. Adli has been linked with an exit all summer given that he does not appear to be a part of Paulo Fonseca’s plans, after not being called up for the first two league games of the season.

The French midfielder, who has been left out of Paulo Fonseca’s squad for the first two league matches, is increasingly likely to depart from the Rossoneri.

No one believed that the Dallas Mavericks were going to make the 2024 NBA Finals heading into the playoffs. Some of the national media thought that they were a dark horse candidate, but not many people considered them to be an elite contender even after their dominant two-month stretch to end the season. The Mavs locker room was filled with a healthy confidence all playoffs long and they were able to steamroll through the competition and win the Western Conference. Dallas was a No. 5 seed heading into the playoffs, but they showed the rest of the league that they…
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, in his role as a Milan executive, delivered a motivational speech to the team following their unexpected defeat to Parma. The Swedish legend addressed the squad in the locker room, emphasizing the need to rediscover their motivation and competitive spirit. La Gazzetta dello sport report how while keeping a measured tone, Ibrahimovic made it clear that the performance against Parma was unacceptable.

Ibrahimovic believes the group has grown in personality and that any further transfers…
Theo Hernandez has ended up in the spotlight following AC Milan’s 2-1 defeat to Parma and not in a good way. On both goals conceded, the Frenchman lacked the desire to help out his team and new data has now put this in black and white. Parma opened the scoring after less than two minutes on the clock, as Dennis Man was left completely free on Milan’s left-hand side. The replays showed poor defending from Theo Hernandez who, despite following the winger for a long distance, failed to stop him. Things weren’t much better on the second goal as the left-back was…
For the last 25 years, the Los Angeles Lakers and L.A. Clippers shared a home in downtown L.A. known largely as the Staples Center but renamed as Crypto.com Arena. While the Lakers were always viewed in the public eye as the primary tenants, the Clippers had moments to shine during this 25-year stretch when they were near the top of the standings and Jeanie Buss’ Lakers had some down years. But the days of cohabitation are over in L.A., as the Clippers are officially moving into a new home — the Intuit Dome — across the street from the Forum…
AC Milan have started the 2024/25 season really poorly, drawing against Torino and losing their most recent fixture against Parma. Today, Tommaso Turci has offered some honest truths about their start. Starting a season in the manner that Milan have done is poor for any club that aspires to challenge for Europe, let alone the Champions League and better yet, the Scudetto. Yet, the Rossoneri have started in that way. Of course, there have only been two games played, so the season is by no means a failure at this point, and it is way too early to create assumptions.…
