Milwaukee Bucks, Doc Rivers

What better person to explain why Doc Rivers accepted the head coaching job with the Milwaukee Bucks than his son Austin Rivers? The reasons were obvious. Milwaukee is one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference and was 30-13 when they made the shocking move to fire Adrian Griffin after 43 games. If the team kept Adrian Griffin, they wouldn’t be competing for a championship. The defense was atrocious, and the role players weren’t consistent enough to take the scoring load off Giannis, Khris Middleton, and Damian Lillard. The trade for Damian Lillard dramatically changed the team’s expectations, and…

Year 1 of Jordan Love starting for the Green Bay Packers was a learning experience. Not only did Love take over for future Hall-of-Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers, but to try and win games despite having the youngest team in the NFL. Before the season started, nobody gave Green Bay a real shot to qualify for the postseason. Most viewed the 2023-24 season as a “transitional year,” with the following season serving as an important year for Jordan Love’s development. For the first two months of the season, that’s exactly what Green Bay looked like, a team that didn’t know how…

The Wisconsin Badgers are motivated to prove the naysayers wrong. Last year’s 20-15 record (9-11 Big Ten) was a wakeup call for Greg Gard and company, as many fans wanted Athletic Director Chris McIntosh to make a move, similar to what he did to overhaul the football program by firing Paul Chryst midseason and hiring Luke Fickell. It was the right move to keep Gard after last season’s finish. Last season was supposed to serve as a transitional year, as the team lost Johnny Davis to the NBA Draft, and senior leader Brad Davidson ran out of eligibility, so who…

The battle of past and present. The Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys will face off next Sunday at 3:30 p.m. CT at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Dubbed an offensive genius when he was hired by Green Bay in 2006, Mike McCarthy was at the helm of Green Bay’s potent offensive attack and helped Aaron Rodgers win two MVPs during his time there. But after he was fired by Green Bay in 2018,…

In the 2023 free agency period, the Milwaukee Bucks sought to beef up their outside shooting. The team shot a mediocre 37 percent from three against the Miami Heat last offseason, and Jon Horst has an affinity for players who can space the floor. This is where the signing for Malik Beasley comes into play because, already losing Joe Ingles and Jevon Carter in free agency, Jon Horst had to operate quickly to sign Beasley, a talented 3-and-D guy. This season, Beasley is shooting a career-high 46 percent from three and has filled in nicely as the team’s fifth starter.…
