Matched up against fellow 2008 title-team members Sam Cassell and Eddie House, among others, Pierce calmly drilled five consecutive 3-pointers from the left corner.…

The Celtics forward recently admitted to Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report that, like everyone else, he learned about Holiday and Porzingis via Twitter. Tatum has previously expressed similar sentiments, most notably last summer when the Celtics were said to be interested in signing Kevin Durant. The native…

JAMIE CARRAGHER SAYS £60K-WEEK NEWCASTLE MAN THE BEST FROM HIS COUNTRY IS “NOT EVEN CLOSE” TO THE BEST IN THE WORLD The Liverpool icon was responding to Newcastle United’s crushing 4-1 victory against PSG in Wednesday night’s Champions League match.

The unsung hero that helped Newcastle defeat PSG 4-1 Each and every Newcastle United player who on the field last night is a hometown hero. Few people in Tyneside will ever forget the night this squad created in history. But while Dan Burn and Sean Longstaff lived out their Geordie aspirations, Miguel Almiron became the first Mag to score in the Champions League since Shearer, and Fabian Schar scored a stunning goal in stoppage time, there is one man who won’t make the headlines who deserves so much recognition. It’s Jamaal Lascelles. Last night was his best performance in…
