Well, the Miami Heat beat the Houston Rockets to begin their West Coast road trip, and somehow Jimmy Butler putting up a stat-line of 27, 10, and 10 wasn't the biggest story of the night.

The Issues MLB used to be the pride of American Sports, but since its days of the steroid era where fans kept up with what was happening, it has been losing its "attractiveness". MLB may still be bringing in over $10 Billion dollars in revenue (2019) but make no mistake, it seems to be a ...

Duncan Robinson is probably the most misunderstood player on this Miami Heat team. Even after struggling for this long stretch, there still isn't much of a drop-off in his usual three point numbers. He went from making 3.7 triples a game on 8.3 attempts last season, to making 3.3 triples a game on 8.3 attempts ...

The Miami Marlins finally did something meaningful this offseason. Throughout the months after a surprise playoff berth, the newly designed front office has been relatively quiet.

Here are five takeaways from the game... #1: Kendrick Nunn hops into starting lineup, and continues to thrive. Kendrick Nunn jumped into the starting point guard position ...

Kendrick Nunn is one of the most interesting players for this Heat team moving forward, since he will have an even bigger role with Avery Bradley and Goran Dragic out.
