Aces Similar To Drake Goes Back 2 Back

 Fans of the WNBA received the Finals matchup they’ve been waiting for since the previous off season.

The New York Liberty vs. the defending WNBA Champion : Las Vegas Aces.

Both organizations locked and loaded with a slew of talent. 

Players with extended resumes : whether that’s the professional level, college level and olympic level.

The Aces took the first two games at home, vs. New York in the best of 5 championship series.

When the scene shifted back to Brooklyn, the Liberty faced a must win Game 3. New York won Game 3 to cut into the series lead 2-1.

Going into halftime of Game 4, Las Vegas trailed by double digits. They even trailed going into the 4th quarter. Someone the defending champions led by Aja Wilson made a late comeback. As well as a defensive stop. To avoid a decisive Game 5 back in Las Vegas.

One point Game 4 comeback win, was enough to bring the Aces a second consecutive title. 

Lillard Trade + Holiday Trades = Make Bucks & Celtics East Favorites

 2021 NBA Champion Jrue Holiday was apart of a 3 team deal. 

Those 3 teams were : Milwaukee, Portland and Phoenix.

Dame Lillard is headed to Milwaukee to team up with Giannis. 

A few days later Holiday was traded to Boston.

These two teams since 2021 have combined for 1 NBA title & 2 NBA Finals appearances : when it comes to Boston & Milwaukee.

In the Eastern Conference the rich get richer.

Barring injury, you can see these teams battling in the spring, for an opportunity to play in the 2024 NBA Finals. 

Lillard finally has an opportunity to become a champion. 

He must seize the moment. 

USC Wins x Colorado : Was Too Legit To Quit

 

Flip score 41-14 USC led Colorado in the 3rd quarter on Saturday. After reigning Heisman trophy award winner threw 1 of his 6 touchdowns on the day to Brenden Rice. The ex Colorado WR and son of Jerry Rice ! WR Omarion Miller and QB Shedeur Sanders helped ignite a competitive 2nd half for Colorado.

Final score USC 48 - Colorado 41

Nonetheless Coach Prime & his Buffaloes never folded.

Last week at Oregon a 42-6 final, the Buffaloes never scored until the final drive of the game.

USC remains undefeated. Colorado takes their 2nd consecutive defeat, nonetheless they are still working & building in Boulder. 

It was Week 4 of must see tv ! As Fox sent their number one crew to broadcast the game as well as their pre game show on location in Boulder. 

We Thought Prior To The Season NFC Will Come Down To 3 Teams

 Here at Sports247365 prior to the start of the season, we thought the National Football Conference would come down to 3 teams. 3 teams where 1 would represent the conference come Super Bowl Sunday next February in Las Vegas.

Dallas not only looking to win NFC as a whole yet NFC East as well. Cowboys have the annual talent to go the distance yet will seek their first NFC Championship Game appearance since 1995-96 where ironically was last Super Bowl victory.

It’ll come down to quarterback play in Dallas, defense is their strength. 

The Eagles defeated San Francisco in the NFC Championship Game a season ago. Despite 10 point halftime lead, would eventually lose to the Chiefs by 3 in the Super Bowl. 

New England last team to lose ( how ironic vs. Eagles )SB then get back next year and win it vs. Rams. 

Lastly, 49ers feel if Purdy wasn’t knocked out of championship game they would be in SB with chance to win their first Lombardi since 1994-95. 

The organization certainly using that as fuel. 

The league knows they can play defense with the best of them.

As well as be physical on both sides of the football. 

Baltimore Was Our Pre Season Pick To Represent The AFC

 Here at Sports247365 the AFC North Baltimore Ravens were and still is our pick, to emerge from the AFC. Yes the Kansas Chiefs are the defending Super Bowl champions. The Chiefs have won 2 of the last 4 Super Bowls. 

Baltimore hasn’t appeared in or won a Super Bowl since 2012-13 season when Joe Flacco in Ray Lewis final season went on a memorial playoff run. A run that ended in New Orleans by beating the 49ers to win the franchise 2nd Lombardi trophy.

The former NFL MVP Lamar Jackson, already had a weapon in TE all pro Marc Andrews,  now with WRs like draft pick Z. Flowers and free agent OBJ amongst others the offense should be more affective. 

Lastly, Lamar Jackson is the top reason we picked Baltimore to win the AFC, similar to Mahomes he can play like a video game : with his arms and legs, causing the opposition major headaches. 

Week 3 Of Must See TV = Buffs Football

 3 games 

3 wins

Yet the one Saturday vs. in state rival : Colorado State was “personal” 

Quarterback Shedeur Sanders led Colorado to a double overtime win vs. Colorado State in Boulder, late…late Saturday night.

Next two opponents at Oregon. Home vs. USC. 

11 points down to start the 4th ( no problem ). 

Down 8 late & 98 yards from the opposing end zone ( no problem ). 

Injured early on two way player Travis Hunter ( no problem). 

A slew of celebrities at the game ( no problem).

Not one yet 2 pre game shows there from ESPN and FOX ( no problem).

Whether you like Coach Prime or not, the Buffaloes are must see tv. Not just in college yet all of sports.

Coach Prime his staff, his players aren’t satisfied, simply trying to improve day to day, week to week, game to game.
