NBA Season So Far

By thesportsfanjournal.com

So far, I have really been enjoying the compressed 66 game NBA schedule. Not only do teams play more often, but it seems like there are a few games on everyday, feeding my appetite for basketball nicely. The season also has been intriguing to see how players react from being on such a long lockout. I can say for sure there are still a few players getting back into shape. Slow starts by many teams have happened so far, for example, the champion Dallas Mavericks. However, as the season goes on teams will start to level off.

Luck or Griffin III?

Now that bowl season is over and the NFL draft is just around the corner, the question of who should be the number one overall pick is beginning to swirl around the sports world. Of course, it should be Andrew Luck, and the Colts seemed committed to him. Many experts and media members think that Robert Griffin III might deserve a look at the number one overall spot. Due to recently winning the Heisman trophy and an electrifying bowl win against Washington; his stock is as high as ever. So now people are beginning to think that Griffin, not Luck, will be the best player in the upcoming draft. They like his speed, ability to throw the deep ball, explosive athleticism, and his recent success has put Baylor on the map. So which quarterback will have the better NFL career? Who has more potential? In this post, I will be taking a look at this new revelation that Andrew Luck is no longer the best player in the NFL draft.

Pacman vs. Pretty Boy

With the recent tweet of Floyd Mayweather Jr. calling out Manny Pacquiao to fight on May 5th, I find myself wondering if this fight will ever really happen? With Mayweather's 87 day jail sentence set to begin on June 1st, this is the deadline we have for this fight to happen. If it doesn’t happen by then, I truly believe it probably never will. There is also no better time for this fight to happen than now.
