Blazers trade 7 Time All-Star Damian Lillarad to the Bucks in a 3 way trade.
Damian Lillard was involved in a 3 way trade as he is now headed to the Milwaukee Bucks and the Portland Trail Blazers receive guard Jrue Holiday and center Deandre Ayton. Damian Lillard has been on the Blazers his whole career, so this was a trade many people were looking forward to.
This trade can be very crucial in how the NBA season will go for the Bucks. Damian Lillard will be teamed up with two time MVP Giannis Antetokoumpo as they strengthen to seek victory for the NBA 2024 championship. This trade also allows a new era for the Blazes as they now have Number 2 pick Scoot Henderson and Big man Deandre Ayton.
Dolphins 70-20 Win over the Denver Broncos has set New Records.
The Miami Dolphins (3-1) played against the Denver Broncos (1-3) and set numerous records in the blowout game. The first team ever with 10 touchdowns from scrimmage, the first to gain at least 350 yards through the air and on the ground, a record-tying two players with four touchdowns. The Dolphins had the chance to break the most points scored in an NFL game but decided to kneel instead.
This is very important because nothing like this has been done since 1966 and this just goes to show how good this team is. The dolphins have had so much success offensively this season and speed is a key factor. The dolphins have the five fastest speeds for ball carriers this season.
Oregon hands Colorado their first loss this season in a blowout game.
Colorado’s 3-0 win streak ended with a 42-6 loss to the Oregon Ducks. Bo Nix put on a good performance this game as he passed for 276 yards and three touchdowns and ran one in as well. Oregon built a 42-0 lead by the third quarter and Colorado managed to get one through by the end of the game. Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders passed for only 159 yards and was sacked a total of 7 times.
This was not a surprise for many college football fans as Oregon has a great team. They are led by Bo Nix their quarterback as he chases the Heisman trophy this season and are now 4-0 this season. This was by far the best team Colorado has faced up against and they continue with their next game against USC.
