BASKETBALL

NBA 

The First Round of the NBA Playoffs keeps bringing the bangers. There’s nothing like the atmosphere of Game 4 and beyond, though. That’s when every play feels like the most important play of the game... until the next one. Every second your team spends behind feels scary, and every lead feels precarious. The best part is, this is only the First Round. We got a lot more playoffs to go.

BASEBALL

MLB 

April baseball is exciting. Teams are still getting back into the swing (sorry) of things, and us fans are trying to use a tiny sample of results to predict what October will look like. There’s so much potential, especially for big matchups like Sunday Night Baseball’s tilt between the Los Angeles Angels and the Kansas City Royals. Both teams find themselves in competitive divisions where early season wins could pay off big come summer. And we get to watch Mike Trout and Bobby Witt Jr. do what they do best on a national stage. Plus, get more games every day with both home and away team coverage.
