Sentinel Sports Final

Wednesday, May 15, 2024

The ACC could be on life support, like the T'wolves and Pacers after losing crucial Game 5s Tuesday night. Schools that voluntarily signed contracts into the next century now want to void that contract because they don't like the terms anymore. So what's the point of a contract if you can run to a friendly judge to bail you out? ... The Gators ' kickoff vs. the 'Canes is set in a loser leaves the state matchup between Billy Napier and Mario Cristobal. ... The only comparison I can draw with Nikola Jokic is Larry Holmes. Holmes is an all-time great (No. 2 on my list of heavyweights because the best Holmes puts the best Joe Louis and his glass jaw on a stretcher because of his shotgun jab alone). Holmes didn 't move like Ali. He didn't have the grace of Ali. He didn't look like a heavyweight champ. Jokic doesn't look like an NBA MVP. He's not poster-izing people like LeBron James or reigning in 3s like Steph Curry. So he can't really be that good. Wrong. Ask Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert who got cooked. He's probably questionable for Game 6 because of fourth-degree burns. ... The Caitlin Clark era has begun in the WNBA.
