Winderman’s view: Heat again at a loss with lack of wherewithal from Kel’el Ware

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on March 13, 2025. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, Miami Heat Blog, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI — Observations and other notes of interest from Wednesday night’s 119-104 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers: – This was never going to be a straight-line progression. – Not with a 20-year-old rookie still growing into his 7-foot body. – Which is why they call it a learning curve. – So as uneven as it was for Kel’el Ware in Monday night’s loss against Mark Williams and the Hornets, it was arguably worse in Wednesday night’s first half against Ivica Zubac and the Clippers. – So at the start of the second half, Ware was on the bench, with Haywood Highsmith opening the third quarter in his...

Heat already at last season’s loss total as skid reaches five, falling 119-104 to Clippers

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on March 13, 2025. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI – No blown early lead or botched late lead this time for the Miami Heat. Such tend not to be factors when your only lead is 2-0. This time, simply not good enough, even when given the advantage of the Los Angeles Clippers sitting out Kawhi Leonard on the second night of a back-to-back set. Defenseless for extended stretches and unable to find offense beyond the scoring of Tyler Herro and Andrew Wiggins, the Heat’s losing streak now stands at a season-worst five after Wednesday night’s 119-104 loss at Kaseya Center. And it’s not as if it gets any easier, with the Boston Celtics...

UCF baseball continues to flex offensive muscles, powering past Miami

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on March 12, 2025. Posted in College Sports, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Sports, UCF Knights.

As UCF outfielder Andrew Williamson raced home from second base on a bunt single in the fifth inning, all Miami catcher Nolan Johnson could do was shake his head in disbelief. It was that night for the sophomore, who scored 3 RBIs, including a pair of runs on walks with bases loaded in the second and third innings as the Knights rolled to a 14-4 win over the Hurricanes Tuesday night at John Euliano Park. UCF (13-3, 0-0 Big 12) scored two runs in the bottom of the first inning as Williamson drove in an RBI on a triple off the left-field wall. He scored on an RBI single by designated hitter...

Panthers give up three goals in third period, fall to Bruins in Boston

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on March 12, 2025. Posted in Florida Panthers, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, NHL, Sports.

By JIMMY GOLEN BOSTON — David Pastrnak had one goal and assisted on Pavel Zacha’s winner as the Boston Bruins scored three times in the third period to overcome a two-goal deficit and beat the Florida Panthers 3-2 on Tuesday night. Four days after Bruins captain Brad Marchand was traded to the Panthers, his old team beat his new one and sent the defending Stanley Cup champions to their first loss in seven games. Boston, which had lost eight of nine heading into the trade deadline, has since won back-to-back games against likely playoff teams from Florida. Marchand didn’t play while he...

Dolphins don’t get Joey Bosa — but neither do 49ers in surprising choice to go to Miami rival

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on March 12, 2025. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Dolphins, NFL, Sports.

It won’t be a reunion with his brother or a return to South Florida for Joey Bosa. The Miami Dolphins missed out on the five-time Pro Bowl edge rusher, but it wasn’t for him to go to the San Francisco 49ers, where Nick Bosa plays. He instead is heading to the rival Buffalo Bills in free agency on a one-year, $12.6 million deal after his release from the Los Angeles Chargers last week, according to multiple reports. Reporting from The Athletic late Monday night indicated Bosa’s free agency was between the Dolphins and 49ers, after the Dolphins were reported to be in the mix on Sunday...

Winderman’s view: Couldn’t get worse for Heat? Hornets had other ideas

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on March 11, 2025. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, Miami Heat Blog, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI — Observations and other notes of interest from Monday night’s 105-102 loss to the Charlotte Hornets: – And now cannot even vanquish a 15-49 opponent. – One that now is 16-49 courtesy of the Heat. – Oh, and it gets worse. – Well, technically not worse, because this sure feels like rock bottom. – But tougher, far tougher. – What follows will offer the ultimate tell of where this all is headed for the Heat. – (Is the No. 10 seed actually out of the question at this point?) – The Clippers at Kaseya Center on Wednesday night (8 p.m., make note). – The Celtics at Kaseya Center on Friday...

Heat again blow leads early and late, crumble to humiliating 105-102 home loss to Hornets

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on March 11, 2025. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI – There was a time when the Miami Heat backing up a previous performance was a good thing. This is not one of those times. And this has not been one of those seasons. So Saturday night there was an early 17-point lead against the Chicago Bulls that was erased. Monday night, it was a 17-point lead against the Charlotte Hornets that was fully squandered. Saturday night there was an 11-point fourth-quarter lead against the Bulls that evaporated. This time there was an 11-point fourth-quarter lead against the Hornets that disappeared. Against good teams, bad things have happened to the...

Dave Hyde: A fix or a folly? Wilson fills Dolphins’ all-important backup QB role

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on March 11, 2025. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Dolphins, NFL, Sports.

If the Miami Dolphins were to sign a former New York Jets quarterback heading into free agency, the only discussed name was Aaron Rodgers. And it wasn’t discussed very loudly. Or convincingly. But Zach Wilson? Whose bingo card had him? If you’re looking for some pound-the-table opinion on why this is a good or dismal move, look elsewhere. This move isn’t even about Wilson just yet. It’s more about general manager Chris Grier and coach Mike McDaniel, together, two decision-makers making one decision they blew last offseason and can’t blow again. Say this for them, too: They’re not playing it...

Could star edge rusher Joey Bosa come home to Dolphins in free agency?

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on March 10, 2025. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Dolphins, NFL, Sports.

A homecoming for Joey Bosa, the star veteran NFL pass rusher and Fort Lauderdale native, to the Miami Dolphins could be within the realm of possibility. Bosa, a local high school football product of St. Thomas Aquinas who turns 30 on July 11, was released by the Los Angeles Chargers last week after nine seasons with the franchise, immediately making him available to sign with another team ahead of Monday’s start to free agency. While widely speculated he could unite with his brother, Nick Bosa, with the San Francisco 49ers, a report from The Athletic on Sunday night said “he is expected to...
