Share this: The Boston Celtics are just an average NBA team right now. Sure, not having two starters Al Horford and Jae Crowder in the lineup because of injuries hurts, but there’s still no excuse to lose to an inferior Denver Nuggets team by 16 points. Boston fell to Denver 123-107 on Sunday night at TD Garden. It was the Celtics’ worst loss of the season, dropping their record to 3-3. Here’s a recap of Celtics-Nuggets.

NBA Rumors: ’50-50′ Kings Trade DeMarcus Cousins This Season, Says West Executiv…
Share this: DeMarcus Cousins’ name has been a focal point of the NBA rumor mill for more than a year, and that doesn’t appear to be ending anytime soon. The Sacramento Kings center is averaging 26 points and 8.4 rebounds per game this season, but the Kings are predictably struggling as a team and seem destined for another draft lottery finish. “I’d say it’s 50-50,” a Western Conference executive told Sam Amico of Amico Hoops when asked if Cousins will be traded this season. “If not, it’s not necessarily because they want to keep him.” Another executive provided an interesting view on Cousins’ situation, including a food comparison. “They’ll never get what they want in return,” an Eastern conference general manager said. “They think Cousins is worth more

Smith’s return from injury “much better” than expected
Bradley Smith (P14): "I have to start by saying that the three back to back races have been fantastic and I am more than satisfied with the results. To come back from my injury and score three point scoring finishes is much better than what I was expecting. If we look at the bigger picture, the Monster Yamaha Tech3 team did a superb job as well as the Clinica Mobile medical staff who made sure that I could compete in every session. In terms of the race, it certainly was tough due to the conditions but we have to be content with another finish in the points, even if we were hoping for more. I decided to risk using the
Latvian title first for Spartaks Jūrmala
Spartaks Jūrmala have claimed their maiden Latvian title with a game to go following a 2-0 victory against RFS on Saturday.Spartaks were ten points clear of second-placed Ventspils in September, but Oleg Kubarev's men stalled and allowed both Ventspils and Jelgava back into the race.

"It was a tough season – hardly surprising as we have a very young team, our average age is 23." Midfielder Jevgeņijs Kazačoks added: "How does it feel? How do you t... UEFA.com - News

Anthony Davis Just Had One Of The Best Games In NBA History
Share this: In every preseason poll, there’s been one constant layer of disrespect that nobody’s talking about: Anthony Davis has been completely forgotten. The New Orleans Pelicans’ superstar was left off every MVP prediction and overlooked for any possible award he could receive. Karl-Anthony Towns apparently is the new “it” star in the NBA, according to everyone, and the often-injured Davis is simply a thing of the past. Except he isn’t. The Pels’ 23-year-old star reminded us all of that Wednesday in his season debut, posting an incredible stat line of 50 points, 16 rebounds, five assists, seven steals and four blocks in 41 minutes in New Orleans’ 107-102 loss to the Denver Nuggets. A notable stat: He nearly posted a famous 5×5 line (five or more
