January 22, 2016 by
In the NBA, there are no sure things. But the Wine and Gold beating the Clippers in their annual visit to the North Coast is about as close as it gets. On Thursday night, despite playing their third game in four nights, the Cavaliers dropped the Clippers for the 13th time in their last 14 […]

P.J. Thompson scored 10 of his 12 points in the final seven minutes Thursday night, helping No. 22 Purdue pull away from Ohio State 75-64. A.J.

Flames beat Blue Jackets 4-2
January 22, 2016 by
Sam Bennett has been red-hot of late (pardon the pun) for the Calgary Flames, and that run continued Thursday night. In a game that was, by all accounts, rather mundane for most of regulation time, but with the score deadlocked at 2-2 after 40 minutes, it was up for grabs in the third period – […]

January 21, 2016 by
It’s not normal to say that a team with championship aspirations would need a victory over a team 20 games below .500 in the middle of January. But after Monday night’s loss to the Warriors – and a pair of tough games looming at The Q – the Wine and Gold needed to thump the […]
Blue Jackets fall to Capitals 6-3
January 20, 2016 by
Based on their start, the Blue Jackets appeared to be in good stead against the NHL’s best team. They were taught a hard lesson: you can’t let up for one second in this league, and especially when you’re facing the Washington Capitals. Despite scoring the opening goal and taking a 10-1 lead in shots halfway […]
Warriors smack Cavaliers 132-98
January 19, 2016 by
There’s not much left to say about Monday’s eagerly-awaited MLK Day matchup against the Warriors that the lopsided final score and statistics don’t. After falling in six dramatic NBA Finals games last June, the Wine and Gold have now dropped the season series to Golden State. The first contest, on Christmas Day in Oakland, was […]
Blue Jackets beat Avalanche 2-1
January 19, 2016 by
The neutral zone was I-670 at rush hour, the shooting lanes were I-71 and that’s one way of saying there wasn’t much going on in the third period – so of course, a fluky goal gave the Blue Jackets two points. Isn’t that always how it goes? Pardon the traffic analogy, please. After the Blue […]

January 15, 2016 by
In a battle between two of the league’s true heavyweights – one, a winner of eight straight, the other having rolled off nine – something had to give. The Cavaliers came into San Antonio on the final days of their longest trip of the season, having topped their first four foes. But the Spurs are […]
