Cavaliers-Kyrie-Irving-returns-to-court-T310FUKS-x-large_original_display_image

It was just an average Tuesday afternoon at Montclair State University in New Jersey….until Kyrie Irving showed up and decided to play pickup with the basketball team. Kyrie showed up, laced up his kicks, and put on a show for everyone that was in the gym.

Kyrie played high school ball at St. Patrick’s in North Jersey, so I guess that’s the reason he was around.

Kyrie has proven himself as one of the best point guards in the NBA, and these DIII kids had no chance.

Watch the video as Kyrie crosses these kids up, hits jumper after jumper in their face, and even shows off his dunking ability at the end.

Indianapolis Colts v New York Giants

Yesterday was National Sibling Day. As the oldest of three kids, I know the importance of having great siblings. Sports have seen its fair share of sibling rivalries over the years, so in honor of National Sibling Day, here are my top 10 sibling combinations I’ve seen in my lifetime. (I’m only 19 so if I miss some great sibling duos from the past I apologize.)

Louisville won this year’s National Championship. Now let’s look at the 2013-2014 season.

Even as a die-hard fan of college basketball, I will be the first to admit that I do not have a favorite team. I’m from New Jersey and Rutgers basketball hasn’t been very good, so the hometown team favoritism is out the window. I just never got fully behind one team. There are certain teams I root for, but none that I can call my own like I can in the NFL, NBA, or MLB (Giants, Nets, Yankees). With that being said, I have never liked the University of Kentucky. I do not have a good reason to why I don’t like the school, I just don’t. However, if I had to pick an early favorite to win next season’s NCAA title, it’d have to be the Wildcats.

Louisville-To-Play-Michigan-For-National-Championship-650x406

The Louisville Cardinals are you’re 2013 college basketball National Champions. Louisville defeated Michigan 82-76. After a crazy regular season where we saw the #1 team in the country fall numerous times, seems kind of wrong that the top overall seed in the tournament took home the trophy. However, the Cardinals deserved it 100%.

The craziest college basketball season we have seen in ages comes to an end tonight as Louisville and Michigan meet in a heavyweight battle for the National Championship. This game has so many interesting matchups to watch. Off the court though, it is a game of conference bragging rights. The Big 10 overtook the Big East as the best conference in the country this year, at least so far, and the winner of this game should put an end to that argument. Here’s how I see tonight’s National Championship game playing out.

Mike Rice can be intense from his couch now that he’s jobless

Rutgers basketball head coach Mike Rice has been fired after Outside the Lines aired a video yesterday showing Rice abusing his players during practice. Rice called his players a wide range of curse words, pushed them, and even threw basketballs at all parts of their body, including their heads.
