What a weekend we had! In the NFL the Super Bowl is set and in the NBA there were some HUGE games! Overall we would say it was a successful weekend in sports.
Lets just get right into it. The Bengals come up short in Arrowhead as Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs move on to their 3rd Super Bowl in 4 years! Cincinnati made some critical mistakes through out this game and it cost them their opportunity at back to back Super Bowl appearances. Some of those mistakes consisted of turnovers, offensive line struggles and penalties. Not to fret, Kevin’s boy JOSEPH WILL BE BACK!
Flipping it over to the NFC the Eagles steam roll their way into Glendale! However it wasn’t done the way you all think it was. For those of you who did not see this game both 49er Quarterbacks got injured in this game. Brock Purdy injured his elbow and back up Josh Johnson left the game with a concussion. As you could imagine this game became one dimensional for San Fran which gave Philadelphia all momentum.
Now the biggest narrative going into this game isn’t Patrick vs Jalen or even Andy Reid facing off against his former team. It is in fact Travis and Jason Kelce will be the first set of brothers to face off against one another in the Super Bowl! Some are even calling this game The Kelce Bowl!
In the NBA there were some crazyyyyy games! Giannis goes for 50 points against the Pelicans on Sunday! Oh and by the way he was 20/26 from the field and did it in 30 minutes…Safe to say he’s pushing to put himself into the MVP conversation.
Over in Philadelphia, the Eagles aren’t the only team who won! Joel Embiid leads his 76ers to a victory against the two time reigning MVP in Nikola Jokic. He didn’t just beat the Nuggets either, he did it in convincing fashion by scoring 47 points and grabbing 18 rebounds! We think he is about tired of falling short to Jokic.
Lastly the game of the weekend had to be the epic showdown between the Lakers and Celtics in bean town! The game ends up going to overtime but not before LeBron James tries to win the game with a driving layup. This is where the controversy begins, on that lay up attempt it is clear that Jayson Tatum hits LeBron on his forearm but no foul is called…As you already know the Celtics end up winning in OT as the Lakers fall short once more behind James’ 41 points. What are your thoughts on this missed call? Should referee’s be held accountable?
