NBA teams are averaging a record 31.5 three-pointers per game, and threes account for 35.5 percent of field goal attempts, which is also a new high. My article for @ForbesSports on how the three is taking over the league - forbes.com/sites/timcasey…

Bell is Seeking a deal worth 50 million dollars in the first two years of the deal. Plenty of skepticism he will approach that number. Jets, Eagles, Bucs could be among the teams involved

And with the Steelers announcing they will not use any tag on Le’Veon Bell, his time in Pittsburgh officially is over. He is free to go, and he will.
Bell is gone and Antonio Brown, too. Interesting off-season and regular season ahead for the Steelers.

The #SFGiants are telling people they are trying hard for Harper (this likely debunks the short-term theory for them, as it’s known Harper isn’t signing short-term deal). However, people who have spoken to SF brass said they aren’t necessarily overly optimistic.

Bryce Harper is believed to have turned down multiple offers over 300M in recent weeks. at least 5 teams are believed still in contact, tho Philly, SF and perhaps Wash appear to have more chance than SD (just gave 300M to Manny) and CWS (seemed more focused on MM)

no evidence NYY ever made official offer to Machado, but word is that at their dinner dec. 19 at Morini on Madison he was given the idea he could get in $220M-$240M range from them. while belief was he wanted to be in NY, ultimately he preferred to go for $. & obvs he got the $.

SHOCKER (SLUSSER)
-THERE'S PUSH BACK ON A'S STADIUM AL;READY ---BUT THERE'S RENDERINGS!!
The Oakland A’s are getting hit on two fronts by organized opposition to their proposed waterfront ballpark at Howard Terminal.
The politically powerful organization Save the Bay is raising questions about the environmental impacts of the project, and the bar pilots association, whose members steer those huge container ships into the Port of Oakland, say they’ll be blinded by the ballpark’s lights and might run over kayakers hoping to collect home run balls. Then there are the port’s tenants, who are complaining about the impact on traffic.
“This is not a transit-accessible area, so more people will be traveling there in cars, and the more people traveling in cars, the more we contribute to climate change,” Save the Bay Executive Director David Lewis said.
And San Francisco Bar Pilots President Joseph Long has written a letter to the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission, saying pilots navigating the narrow estuary will be blinded by the ballpark’s lights, “similar to that experienced by the motorist facing an oncoming car with its high beams on.”
“Even when the lights are not shining directly into the pilot’s eyes, the ambient light from the ballpark will also affect the pilot’s night vision, making it nearly impossible to see navigation aids,” Long wrote.
But wait, he wasn’t finished.
“Navigating a large container ship through such congested waters would substantially increase the risk that a small vessel or kayak will be damaged or sunk ... resulting in personal injury or fatalities, or cause the ship or tugs to go aground or strike a pier in evasive maneuvers, resulting in an oil spill,” Long contended in the Jan. 14 letter to the BCDC.
The opposition appears to be mobilizing because of a concern that there is a behind-the-scenes effort to get state lawmakers to pass legislation to fast-track the permitting process for the stadium.
“Our concern is that the A’s and the citizens of Oakland are creating an approval process that may be legally vulnerable,” Lewis said.

It sure looks like Ngannou connected flush on that right uppercut that drops Cain and his knee buckled when he's falling. I've watched it a few times and you see Cain's head snap when Ngannou's punch connects.

WHY IT SUCKS BEING AN A'S FAN:
I'd like to be here. I hope something gets done," Davis said. "It's not a good thing being a free agent right now. For my security, it's going to impact a lot. That's the way the business is. I'm already 31 so I don't know if I'm too old. There's a lot of things that run through my head. Who knows. If it happens, it happens."
Manager Bob Melvin had some encouraging things to say in Saturday's team meeting, and Davis said "it made me feel a little more secure."
"Shoot, I want to stay here at least three more years, but that's a long time to be an Oakland A. But if anybody can THE MAJORS do it, I guess it's me, hopefully," Davis said. "I don't think they'll trade me as long as we're doing good. So we better do good so I don't get traded."
