The Los Angeles Lakers, against all odds, have found a way to maximize Russell Westbrook in the regular season. He may be a bit overrated , but he's at least actively contributing to a Lakers team that spent an entire offseason trying to trade him. Without his playmaking, they may not have been able to stay afloat when they were without stars LeBron James and Anthony Davis. As a regular-season player, he has been solid. But ultimately, the Lakers will judge themselves on the postseason, and that's where the concerns surrounding Westbrook amplify. The Lakers are not immune to these concerns. According to Bleacher Report's Eric Pincus, the Lakers have concerns about Westbrook's viability in the postseason. Whether or not that will lead to a trade before the deadline is not clear, but these concerns should have been apparent even before they traded for him in the first place. In the 2020 Orlando bubbl...

MILWAUKEE -- Entering this season, Giannis Antetokounmpo, for all his brilliance, had just three 50- point Game s to his name. He now has two in the last month. In yet another ridiculous performance , Antetokounmpo finished with 50 point s, 13 rebounds and four assists on 20-of-26 from the field in the Milwaukee Bucks' 135-110 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans.  "Guy had a hell of a night, made it look easy all night long," Khris Middleton said. "Playing efficient, playing dominant, he's playing unstoppable, playing like the MVP again. We need that from him every night, and he knows that." With this performance, Antetokounmpo became the sixth player in NBA history to have multiple 50-point games on at least 75 percent shooting from the field. The others are Wilt Chamberlain, Michael Jordan, Karl Malone, Kyrie Irving and Adrian Dantley; not a bad list to join.  ...

The Elder Scrolls Online is taking us back to Morrowind for the first time since 2017 with the new Shadow Over Morrowind adventure consisting of March's Scribes of Fate DLC and June's Necrom chapter. The DLC consists of four new PvE dungeons that will see us fighting Scribes of Mora, followers of the Daedric Prince we met in Skyrim - he was that giant floating black eyeball with gooey tentacles. Hard to remember that face (is it a face?). It launches on March 13 for PC and March 28 for consoles. RELATED: 2023 Could Be The Elder Scrolls Online's Best Year Yet The chapter appears to be similar in scope to older ESO outings like the original Morrowind expansion, Summerset Isles, and Wrothgar. It takes us to Eastern Morrowind for a 30-hour adventure, adding two new companions, a new class (the Arcanist), and Apocrypha. This is the same plane of Oblivion we saw in Skyrim, Hermaeus Mora's, which was a giant infinite library kept in a toxic swamp riddled with tendril...

Matthew Greene took the stand on Tuesday in the trial of the former leader of the Proud Boys and four associates In federal court this week, a former Proud Boy who flipped on his alleged co-conspirators testified to increasingly violent conversations among the far-right group's members leading up to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Matthew Greene of Syracuse, New York, took the stand in Washington on Tuesday in the trial of the former leader of the Proud Boys and four associates who are each accused of seditious conspiracy against the United States, among other charges, as part of an alleged plot to disrupt the certification of President Joe Biden's 2020 election victory. Enrique Tarrio, the ex-leader, and Ethan Nordean, Joseph Biggs, Zachary Rehl and Dominic Pezzola have all pleaded not guilty. In his testimony, Greene said that in the weeks before Jan. 6, 2021, the group had been trying to stir up violent interactions with those they believed to be part of an "...

An official in Greece says the country has prevented around 260,000 migrants from entering illegally in 2022 and arrested 1,500 traffickers FERES, Greece -- Greece prevented around 260,000 migrants from entering illegally in 2022 and arrested 1,500 traffickers, an official said Saturday. Citizens’ Protection Minister Takis Theodorikakos was speaking to ambassadors from other European Union countries plus Switzerland and the United Kingdom as he guided them to a still expanding border wall in the country’s northeast. Theodorikakos emphasized to the 28 envoys that Greece’s border is also the EU’s external border . “The task (of protecting the border ) needs the support ... of European public opinion, the European Union itself and its constituent members individually,” Theodorikakos said. “It is our steadfast position that member states of first reception cannot be (the migrants’) only European destinations. "There must be solidarity among member-states and a fair sharing of dutie...

While government officials and aviation professionals are now working to determine whether or not UFOs are real, a Serbian-American inventor has submitted a patent application for it 10 years ago. At the close of the 19th century, all of this occurred despite the fact that eminent scientists rejected the idea of flying machines. While government officials and aviation professionals are now working to determine whether or not UFOs are real, a Serbian-American inventor has submitted a patent application for it 10 years ago. At the close of the 19th century, all of this occurred despite the fact that eminent scientists rejected the idea of flying machines. The inventor of many scientific innovations, Nikola Tesla, was the first to create a workable design for a flying saucer, or as we now refer to them, a “UFO.” “Flying Saucer” by Tesla Nikola Tesla filed a contentious patent in 1928.

As investigators continue to probe the death of school teacher Keenan Anderson, they have released video and details about his Jan. 3 encounter with police officers. There are growing demands for answers over the death of a 31-year-old Washington D.C. teacher hours after he was repeatedly shocked by a Los Angeles Police Department Taser during an arrest that was filmed on a police body camera. Keenan Anderson, the cousin of Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors, died at a hospital on Jan. 3 about four and a half hours after he was shocked, police allege. Anderson, while visiting L.A., was stopped by an LAPD motorcycle officer when witnesses flagged down the officer about a traffic accident. Initially, Anderson appeared to have been a witness running in the street, but others in the area pointed toward him as causing the accident, police body camera footage showed. A screengrab of a video released by LAPD on YouTube shows the LAPD interaction with Keenan Anderson, who died a...

Puerto Rico's government says it plans to privatize electricity generation, a first for a U.S. territory facing chronic power outages as it struggles to rebuild a crumbling electric grid SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -- Puerto Rico announced Sunday that it plans to privatize electricity generation, a first for a U.S. territory facing chronic power outages as it struggles to rebuild a crumbling electric grid. The move marks the beginning of the end for Puerto Rico’s Electric Power Authority, a behemoth long accused of corruption, mismanagement and inefficiency that holds some $9 billion in public debt — the largest of any government agency. Many Puerto Ricans already irate and fatigued by power outages were wary of the announcement, given that serious complaints about the length of outages, costly power bills and other issues arose after the island’s government privatized the transmission and distribution of power in June 2021. Fermín Fontanés, executive director of Puerto Rico’s Public-Pri...
