The NBA is a results-based business. That applies on the court, with the scoreboard and standings, and it also applies off the court, in terms of fan loyalty and the amount of money they spend on tickets, jerseys, and more. The Dallas Mavericks are 3-7 to start the season, which has stirred up frustration and resentment in the Dallas fan base that goes back to the Luka Doncic trade last season. Adding fuel to the fire is the fact that Doncic is averaging a near triple-double — 37 points, 10 rebounds and 9.5 assists a game — leading the Lakers to a 7-3 record and a top-10 offense in the league.The slow start has fueled negativity around the Mavericks and is adding to the pressure on general manager Nico Harrison and questions about whether he could be fired. Dallas-based NBA insider Marc St...

Leanne Ross (Glasgow City FC) Scottish Women’s Premier League leaders Glasgow City return to European action on Wednesday, taking on Sporting CP at Petershill Park in the round of 16 of the Europa Cup. And head coach Leanne Ross says her team are feeling good going into the match. “There’s a confidence there within the squad,” Ross told SheKicks.net on Monday morning, “but as well as that, we need to respect that they’re a difficult opponent. So we’ll use the confidence as much as we can in terms of how we want to play the game – but we certainly need to be respectful that they are going to be a threat as well. “We need to make sure that we do the things really well that we’ve been doing for the start of the season in terms of being defensively solid and just putting that bit of work rate...

Oh, the Dallas Mavericks may fire general manager Nico Harrison? Better late than never, I suppose. They should have fired Harrison the moment he suggested trading Luka Dončić. They should have fired him when he traded Quentin Grimes for Caleb Martin. They should've fired him after his disastrous and bizarre meeting with the press last April. They should have fired him the moment they won the Cooper Flagg lottery and were granted a "get out of jail free" card from the basketball gods. They should have fired him in the preseason, when the hilariously unbalanced roster he constructed forced Flagg -- a 6-foot-9 18-year-old who plays forward -- to move to point guard.The best time to fire Nico Harrison would have been any of those moments. The next best time to fire Nico Harrison would be righ...

It’s unusual for a professional sports franchise to plan a yearlong celebration for a team that didn’t win a championship. But it is also rare that a group of players represents the vibe and culture of a city so accurately as the Philadelphia 76ers did back in 2001. Throughout the 2025-2026 NBA season, the Sixers will honor the 25th anniversary of their legendary 2001 team. The celebration kicks off with the return of Hip-Hop, the muscle-bound rabbit mascot who debuted in 1998 and represented the team for 13 years. Throughout the year the team will wear jerseys and feature court designs from the 2001 season, and it will honor the team and its star player, Allen “The Answer” Iverson, during a reunion game on Jan. 31, 2026. As a pop culture scholar and director of a program in critical...

Although yesterday’s 2-0 win didn’t ultimately give Roma sole possession of first place (thanks, Lazio), they beat a tough Udinese team and returned to their winning ways after dropping last weekend’s fixture at the San Siro against AC Milan. When combined with Thursday’s win over Rangers in the Europa League, Gian Piero Gasperini’s group navigated two tricky fixtures while scoring multiple goals in consecutive games for only the second time this season.While Roma’s attack still isn’t performing up to Gasperini’s usual high standards, the club managed to craft several impressive spells in both victories this week. And who knows, with a significant upgrade at the striker position this winter (fingers crossed), these two-nil wins might become commonplace.AdvertisementAside from a late barrag...
