It has been less than four years since the Los Angeles Lakers won their then-record-tying 17th NBA title in franchise history. While their star duo of LeBron James and Anthony Davis still remains, everybody else on that championship team is gone. This includes notable role players like Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Alex Caruso, who have continued to excel after their Lakers run. Additionally, the team also made other moves that were questionable even at the time. Perhaps most notable is their decision to trade forward Kyle Kuzma.

Week 1 of the NFL season is finally here and the Miami Dolphins kick things off against their in-state rival and fellow AFC competitor, Jacksonville Jaguars. Every game is crucial in the NFL, but getting early victories against conference competitors is crucial for potential tie-breakers down the road. The Jaguars finished the 2023 season at 9-8, but like Miami, were bitten by the injury bug down the stretch. They present a number of challenges that the Dolphins must contend with and that brings an increased focus on a few players that need big games for Miami to come out victorious.

The Knicks went all-in this offseason. Coming off back-to-back Eastern Conference Semi-Final appearances, they doubled down on their core and leveraged all their draft assets to bring in more talent.

Hopes are high in the Garden, and a faltering franchise has risen back up amongst the true contenders in the NBA.
