Tiger Woods was four months older than McIlroy when he won his second...
The 2008 team looked like destined winners. 2012 was different. With about seven players lost for the team due to injury, Team USA was still looking ahead and getting the gold. With recent NBA champion LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony and so much more, anything was possible. And boy, what a month it has been watching this team. And now they have...
LONDON — The names change, not the results. Just call the U.S. women’s basketball team Olympic champion. The Americans won their fifth straight gold medal Saturday, routing France 86-50 and putting more distance between themselves and the rest of the world heading to Rio for the 2016 Games. Candace Parker scored 21 points, including eight straight during...

For the second straight game, the Miami Heat led by a bunch, only to see the Oklahoma City Thunder soon crawling back. However, this time they were able to stay focused. They didn’t gas out. They kept the same intensity. They stayed aggressive. And they were able to pull out a victory on the road, tying up the series at one apiece in a 100-96 victory. LeBron James...
It was the match-up we all wanted. Oklahoma City Thunder versus the Miami Heat. LeBron James vs. Kevin Durant. The two most-hyped and exciting teams this year. Who will take it? To start off Game 1, it sure looked like the Miami Heat. LeBron James was on a roll as the Heat led by double-digits for a while. Shane Battier was also hot from behind-the-arc and the Thunder...
Although I’ll never ever watch a hockey game in my life, I gotta give my opinion on this. Congrats to the Los Angeles Kings on winning their first NHL championship in this year’s Stanley Cup Finals! You guys looked like a fun team this year, so congrats guys! Here’s the info from AP: The Los Angeles Kings have won their first NHL championship, beating...
Down 3-2, LeBron James found himself in probably the biggest hole of his NBA career. If he lost Game 6, the scrutiny towards him would be even worse than his loss to the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals last year. James responded with a 45-point outburst along with 15 rebounds and five assists. James also played much differently than he usually did. He had that look...
Saturday night may have just became the day that the sport of boxing had it’s motives questioned for good. It might have just died. In a shocking result, Timothy Bradley defeated Manny Pacquiao in a split-decision, shocking probably the world. Pacquiao won at least 11 of the 12 rounds. Not once did I think Bradley had Pacquiao or he was getting him good. Or when...
LeBron James could care less what you think. Instead of hearing criticism and acting like there was pressure on him, James let his game do all the work. No smiles. No celebrating. Just play. James came into Game 6 with a completely different mentality, which helped the Miami Heat embarrass the Boston Celtics in a 98-79 victory as they keep their season alive by forcing...
The Oklahoma City Thunder have advanced to the NBA Finals! Down 0-2 to the San Antonio Spurs, it seemed like their season would end here. But they didn’t give up. OKC kept fighting and fighting. In Game 3, they killed the Spurs, 102-82. The next two games ended in close bouts, but they held on to win to take a commanding 3-2 series lead. San Antonio came into the...
I’ve been to my share of Indy 500′s. Attending my fourth straight, this is probably the wildest one I have seen. There were many lead changes throughout the race. Really, anybody had a chance, even if you were in last place the whole time. It also helped their chances with how many crashes there were as well in the race. In the final lap, Takuma Sato looked...
The Miami Heat defeated the Indiana Pacers 101-93 in a crucial Game 4 victory. With the team on the brink, the dynamic duo of LeBron James and Dwyane Wade certainly delivered. James and Wade combined to score 70 total points. LeBron had 40 points, 18 rebounds, and nine assists while Wade had 30 points, nine rebounds, and six assists. The Pacers led the Heat 54-46 at halftime,...
Kevin Durant is just too good. The Oklahoma City Thunder forward simply just walked up to the three-point line and hit the game-winning three over the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 4. KD shot it right over Metta World Peace, displaying his clutch. Durant finished with 31 points as OKC won, 103-100. The Thunder hold a 3-1 series lead. Josh Dhani is the founder of FootBasket....
Who would’ve thought that the Indiana Pacers would beat the Miami Heat by 19 points? I surely did not think it would happen. Indiana destroyed Miami on the boards with a 52-36 advantage. The lack of size is starting to cost the Heat in this series. Nobody on the Heat could guard Pacers center Roy Hibbert. He had the game of his career with 19 points, 18 rebounds,...
