| | If Magic-Cavs hold to form, there'll be a Game 7. But Jarrett Allen is going to try to play this time, and that could be a bad thing (or a good thing) pending how effective he can be. Of course, the Cavs could be sending out misdirection to just make the Magic think he's going to play knowing he won't. Izzy Mendelbaum would call this "macho head games" from NBA coaches. ... UCF has an interesting relationship with EA Sports, and Matt Murschel takes you behind the scenes at their downtown Orlando facility and the Knights football tie-in. ... The Bucks have been upset in the first round by the Pacers and all hell is likely to break loose in Milwaukee this offseason with two unhappy superstars and a replacement head coach who predictably underperformed. ... The only downside of the Knicks-Sixers series is that there isn't going to be a Game 7 at Madison Square Garden. ... What's wrong with the Rays? How long do you have? ... Not sure why a college football coach being the highest-paid every year is news anymore. But it's again Kirby Smart. I hope he can feed his family on $13M a year while how much NIL money players make (you know, the subjects responsible for the coaches commanding those paydays) continues to set everyone's hair on fire. 🥸 | | The Magic and Cavs could be missing a starter when the sides clash at Kia Center on Friday night. A victory by Orlando forces Game 7 Sunday. "This team is beatable," backup guard Cole Anthony said. "We've done it before and we can do it again." | | | According to EA Sports, approximately 10% of Tiburon's game development team graduated from UCF's Florida Interactive Entertainment Academy. As of 2023, seven interns are UCF students. | | | Baseball district winners included Harmony, Lake Brantley and Bishop Moore, while Osceola, Boone and Hagerty won softball district titles. Hagerty and Montverde won beach volleyball regional matche… | | | Consider the lack of production from their offense, especially key players such as Randy Arozarena and Yandy Diaz. Their deficiencies on defense, in terms of plays messed up or not made. The inconsistencies from both ends of their pitching staff. | | | The 76ers still haven't made it past the second round since 2001 and can pin the bulk of the blame in this one on their starters. Tobias Harris, in the final year of a five-year, $180 million contract, went scoreless. So did Kyle Lowry. | | | There was not a lot of finesse in the five games the Cavaliers and Magic have played in their best-of-seven Eastern Conference quarterfinal series, so why expect anything different now? | | | The Knights will make their first trip to Northwestern at Ryan Field on Sept. 9, 2028. They also added added a pair of nonconference games with teams from the Football Championship Subdivision | | | Reigning national 400 hurdles high school champ Kai Evans of Lake Minneola advances via new FHSAA at-large berth format.

Bennett was hired last week to replace Walter Banks, who spent nine seasons with the Hawks. | | | Only time will tell if he holds that distinction longer than last time. | | | "What wins one series, what wins one game, is not going to win the next game, is not going to win the next series." Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla | | | The more things have changed for Tyler Herro, the more one aspect remains the same for the fifth-year Miami Heat guard: The offseason again will be conjecture season. | | | The onus is on the Lightning to re-sign their captain, but what if Stamkos wants something Tampa Bay cannot provide? | | | |
