I just witnessed the best all around team performance in the NBA Playoffs so far by the Boston Celtics in their victory over the Philadelphia 76ers 128-96! Their defense was amazing and offensively they made a total of 24 3's!
Earvin's involved with all types of things. He owns football teams, baseball teams, soccer teams, insurance companies, a lot of things. He's always gonna have some type of involvement with all the teams, but he is not gonna have a day-to-day involvement (with the Lakers). It's gonna be no different since he left the Lakers.
The Michigan State Spartans formally introduced Pat Fitzgerald as their new head coach this week, which came after the team dismissed Jonathan Smith. He led the team to a 9-15 record in his two seasons as head coach, including a 4-8 mark this year. For Fitzgerald, it's his first head coaching job since being fired by Northwestern in 2023 because of a hazing scandal. Fitzgerald was later vindicated after the school admitted he had no knowledge of the alleged misconduct. Fitzgerald will now look to usher in a new era of winning football for the Spartans, who last finished above .500 during the 2021 season.
Sticking with tradition, Johnson will ride down Colorado Boulevard and help usher in the new year as the Grand Marshal of the Rose Parade. He will also participate in the pre-game ceremony at the College Football Playoff Quarterfinal at the 112th Rose Bowl Game. Johnson is most known for his legendary basketball career that saw him lead the Los Angeles Lakers to five championships. Since his retirement, he has become a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist who supports underserved communities through his Magic Johnson Foundation.
McLaurin ended months of uncertainty by penning a three-year, $96 million deal that includes a $30 million signing bonus. Much will depend on the guarantees attached, but this represents a win-win for all parties. And now, the team and its best pass-catcher can focus on making waves when the regular season commences. The outpouring of joy on social media and radio shows was heart-warming.
