The Scavenger’s Miami Heat success story all-but-officially ended with five minutes left in Sunday’s fourth quarter in Toronto, checking out for Dwyane Wade with the score tied at 93 and exactly five minutes left in the fourth quarter. It was reasonable that Rodney McGruder wouldn’t play beyond that; after all, while it’s entirely unclear which […]
Quite a bloody Sunday it’s been. First the Miami Heat blew another second half lead, faltering down the stretch, botching a last-possession with a chance to win (thanks in part to the officials) and then petering out in overtime to lose to Toronto. Now, with the season just about over, someone who actually played 23 […]
Is this news? We’re not sure if this is news. The Florida Panthers just finished another disappointing season, one that began with some of us — um, me — thinking they were the best-positioned of all the pro teams in our sadsack sports town to make a real run. They had young stars, a veteran […]
Paul Pierce and the rest of the late 2000s, early 2010s Boston Celtics have always had an inflated sense of self. They won one championship together, but you’d think it was 12. They felt they owned Ray Allen, like, literally. They believed they were in LeBron James’ head, right until he dropped 45 on them […]
It is the season for nostalgia when it comes to Dwyane Wade. We’ve done our share on the Five Reasons flagship podcast, Miami Heat Beat has done plenty of its own on podcasts and videos (check THIS out), and naturally the Heat have hyped plenty about #OneLastDance. We have felt that the national media have […]
There are a lot of truly great discussions that go down in the Five Reasons group chat that never see the light of day, which seems unfair. I mean, sure, you may get the pleasure of reading the statistical breakdowns and spider charts that make our group of misfit sports dorks special, but you miss […]
Sometimes, all the snark isn’t saved for this site. Our friend Ryan Yousefi (who goes by @Rizzmiggiz on Twitter) has compiled a list of the five types of Marlins fans, which is a challenge when you consider that Wednesday night, there didn’t seem to be five total Marlins fans at the stadium — not with […]
MIAMI — It’s been exactly a half-century since the slick Pennsylvanian by way of Alabama and Manhattan made his proclamation in this same city, a response to a heckler at a promotional dinner for Super Bowl III, a hearty promise of victory his ragtag Jets would fulfill. As guarantees go, this wasn’t exactly that. Justise […]
This Teammate of the Year thing is a cute idea. Reward someone for being there for the other guys on his team…. day after day, year after year. For his passion. For his sacrifice. But really, what are any of these other guys doing here with Udonis Haslem? Thank u for the nomination for the […]
LeBron James won’t be in the playoffs this season. But he will be in a movie theater soon. And maybe that’s what this was all about. ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, author of the forthcoming book LeBron Inc., joined the Five Reasons Sports flagship earlier this week to discuss James’ long upcoming summer… and what could potentially […]
