After losing Game 2 in the NBA Finals to the Miami Heat, the Denver Nuggets were able to bounce back and take a 2-1 series lead with a Game 3 win. The Denver Nuggets took Game 1 of the 2023 NBA Finals, and it felt like it was going to be a short series. But, in Game 2, the Miami Heat bounced back, with their starters and bench stepping up to tie the series up before heading back to South Beach. Nuggets head coach Mike Malone was critical of his team’s effort not only in Game 2 but also in the NBA Finals opener.

Miami, FL

In the Miami Heat’s Game 3 loss to the Denver Nuggets, missed shots by Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo helped spring big nights by Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. Down three in a closely played second quarter, Jimmy Butler cruised around a Kyle Lowry screen, got a step on Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and went into a classic Butler move — a drop step followed by a two-footed floater. Butler has made this shot countless times, including in these playoffs, but this one gently nudged the front of the rim and landed in the hands of Aaron Gordon.

The Los Angeles Lakers might switch some things around this offseason, especially as it pertains to their point guard spot.

One night after getting into a war of words with the Braves, Mets slugger Pete Alonso was hit by a pitch and had to leave the game with a wrist injury. New York Mets slugger Pete Alonso was a big talking point after his team’s first game of the series in Atlanta against the rival Braves on Tuesday night. Alonso, after missing a hung slider on the first pitch of at-bat, hammered a monster home run to give New York a 4-1 lead in the third inning. After the homer, though, he was chirping Braves pitcher Bryce Elder, telling him to “Throw it again”.

A year ago, no one in the college football world would have suggested sitting back and watching the Big 12 eat. Eating, in terms of conference realignment, that is. About 10 months ago the Big 12 made a big change. That is when Brett Yormark was hired to succeed the retiring Bob Bowlsby. The move surprised many because Yormark did not have a college sports background. He had worked in sports but on the entertainment side rather than the sports side.
