Making Sense of the War in the Wild, Wild West

March 13, 2023 cbholganza

Overall, the key factors that will matter most in these last few games in the regular season will be: how the new players (Durant, Irving, Westbrook, etc) integrate into their new teams’ systems; how the injuries (Lebron, Durant, Zion, Towns, etc) affect their teams’ standings at the end of the season; and how other issues (Morant, Wiggins) pan out. We have here a long list of outstanding players. But do they fit in? Will they bring out the best out of the rest of the crew? Are they healthy enough – physically and mentally – for the rigors of the playoffs?

These last 20 or so games for the LA Lakers will be very important for Lebron James. This could determine whether he still gets a chance for another crown, which could be his last, considering his age and the consequent injuries he has had to deal with during these last few seasons.

It looks to me like it’s the Phoenix’ fearsome foursome going up once again against Milwaukee’s trio of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kris Middleton and Jrue Holiday for this year’s finale.

With the playoffs coming up fast, teams are alternately pacing their stars, developing the teamwork and chemistry with the new trade acquisitions, defining individual roles and preparing for the long grind ahead. Up ahead, it’s the playoffs. Let’s get ready to rumbleeeee!!!

February 11, 2023 cbholganza

It’s showtime once again, folks, as American football’s finest meet at centerstage for the much-awaited season finale, the Super Bowl showdown. Featuring the fancied Kansas City Chiefs versus an equally star-studded Philadelphia Eagles, this movie script couldn’t get any better than this, with betting odds favoring the Eagles by a slim 1.5-point spread only. For the first time in a long time, 2 conference top seeds, the best of the best – the AFC’s Chiefs and the NFC’s Eagles – will be pitted against each other. Both teams have identical 16 – 3 win-loss slates, and making this even more fantastic, both have identical 546 points scored for the season. Will the Chiefs roast the Eagles for dinner? Or will the Eagles claw off the Chiefs’ scalps this Sunday?

The Road to Super Bowl LVII

January 29, 2023 cbholganza

The Chiefs and the Bengals, the Eagles and the 49ers. All four teams will ride on the shoulders of 4 outstanding young quarterbacks. Gone from the list are the likes of the multi-awarded Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers and company. Still in the running are the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes at age 27, the Bengals’ Joe Burrow at 26, the Eagles’ Jalen Hurts at 24 and the 49ers’ Brock Purdy at only 23 years of age. Which QB will win it all?

Lessons Learned From The Recent Ginebra – Bay Area Epic Finals

January 23, 2023 cbholganza

The entry of the Bay Area Dragons was the biggest boon to the PBA in recent years. The Dragons were a new team, a strong contender for the crown, and a foreign entity at that. This would whet the interest of the fans no end, as the team had the height and heft, the strength and the speed, the stamina and the smarts, to do battle with the best of the PBA.
