PORT JEFF, NY – Greetings. At the risk of wind-bagginess, let’s talk ball. Here’s the slate: More On Mets/Pete Alonso, Super Bowl LIX Prediction, NBA Trade Deadline Thoughts

More On Mets/Pete Alonso

Finally! After months and months of rumors, the Mets have finally agreed to a deal with Pete Alonso. This is the outcome every Met fan hoped for. There was no doubt that both sides wanted a deal to come together, it was only a matter of time. Even with the Soto signing, things just wouldn’t feel the same without Alonso in Flushing. This likely concludes perhaps the best offseason this franchise has ever had, and I cannot wait for opening day.

Super Bowl LIX Prediction

Super Bowl Sunday is finally here! Let’s make a pick: This is going to be a fantastic game. I truly feel we’re getting the best team from each conference. The Eagles have the best roster in the NFL, and have better players at every position except one. Quarterback. That’s all that matters. Jalen Hurts is playing terrific, Saquon Barkley is having a legendary season, and the Eagles defense has been dominate all year long. Despite all of that, I’m picking the Chiefs. Simply put, I trust Mahomes and Andy Reid to put themselves in position to somehow win this game. Chiefs 28 Eagles 24

NBA Trade Deadline Thoughts

Warriors get Jimmy Butler

This move surprised me a bit. The Warriors and Steph Curry have struggled a lot this year and appear to be headed in a downward trajectory going forward, yet they chose to trade away assets and give a Jimmy Butler, (who BTW has never not outstayed his welcome on a team) a brand new contract. Maybe this works out perfectly and Steve Kerr gets the most out of Butler, but I just don’t see it.

Cavs get D’Andre Hunter 

Hunter isn’t a massive name to most casual fans, but he’s having a huge breakout this year in Atlanta. This move scares me as a Knicks fan – along with last night’s embarrassing loss. The Cavs have been the best defensive team in the league and they’ve now added one of the most versatile players in the NBA. I want no part of this team come playoff time.

Bucks swap Middleton for Kuzma

Jacob Sternberg

This move does very little in my opinion. Losing Middleton isn’t a big deal for Milwaukee considering he’s been hurt for much of the last few seasons. Kyle Kuzma is a good scorer who doesn’t add much in terms of defense. The Bucks have hit a bit of a wall the last few years so I suppose a move to try and shake things up isn’t the worst idea. I’m very curious how things play out this offseason in Milwaukee, if they have an early exit from the postseason, I think Giannis could very well be on the move.
