Kevin Love watched Game 6 and Game 7 against the Boston Celtics from the Miami Heat’s sideline, dressed in home white and road black. He watched Game 1 of the NBA Finals against Denver without logging a single minute, either. The Heat dusted their 34-year-old stretch forward off the bench and into the starting lineup for Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night,
The top-seeded Denver Nuggets cruised past the Miami Heat 104-93 to take Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night at Denver’s Ball Arena.
After clinching the first NBA Finals berth in franchise history with a sweep of the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Finals on May 22, Denver showed no signs of rust in Thursday’s Game 1,
BOSTON — When Jayson Tatum twisted his ankle on the first play of Game 7, it was clear the injury was going to slow him down. But with the Celtics’ backs against the wall against the Heat, they needed to find production elsewhere. That’s where Jaylen Brown comes in.
Brown, who was named second-team All-NBA this season, was the natural next man up.
The goaltenders made the score look respectable when the game could have been a high-scoring affair. The Vegas Golden Knights and Dallas Stars traded scoring chances, especially in the third period. Golden Knights goalie Adin Hill stopped 29 scoring chances and kept his team in the game until they turned the game in the third period and peppered Dallas goalie Jake Oettinger in the third period.

Denver Nuggets’ historic celebration began, LeBron James, the Los Angeles Lakers’ star forward, walked off his home court, his face expressionless.
On Monday night, the Nuggets stamped out the final gasps from the Lakers, who had kept their season alive for weeks after it was presumed finished. Even after the final buzzer, some of Denver’s players looked as if they couldn’t believe the series was over and that they had actually done it.
Jim Brown, the legendary Browns Hall of Fame running back who was one of the NFL’s most prolific players and a civil rights icon, passed away. He was 87.
“Jim Brown is a true icon of not just the Cleveland Browns but the entire NFL,” Jimmy and Dee Haslam said. “He was certainly the greatest to ever put on a Browns uniform and arguably one of the greatest players in NFL history.
The Celtics fell apart late once again and find themselves on the brink against the Heat after dropping Game 2, 111-105.
Here are the takeaways as the series shifts back to Miami.
1. We have a great number of places we could start when describing why the Celtics lost on Friday, but we’ll open with Jaylen Brown,
LeBron James marched off the court after the Lakers’ 132-126 Game 1 loss Tuesday to the Denver Nuggets, closed his eyes, craned his head back and let out an, “Oh my god,” after Los Angeles nearly stole the Western Conference finals opener.
The Lakers trailed by as many as 21, were outrebounded by 17 and allowed Denver to score 72 points by the break —
The plaque in the Seattle Kraken locker room held seven game pucks, signifying the first seven Stanley Cup playoff wins in franchise history.
There wouldn’t be an eighth. An equipment manager tucked the plaque under his arm after Game 7 against the Dallas Stars, packing it away once the Kraken were eliminated in a 2-1 loss Monday night.
But as veteran Jordan Eberle explained,
