‘The Best in Sports’ is a daily PSO original series showcasing the best highlights, facts, and stories going on in the land of the NFL, NBA, & MLB every day. Get a recap on EVERYTHING that happened yesterday here.
Here is the best from March 7, 2020:
With Saturday full of lackluster NBA matchups sandwiched in between Lakers-Bucks on Friday & Lakers-Clippers on Sunday this weekend, the best game of the day was a Warriors-76ers game without Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons, & Josh Richardson. Without all the star talent, these two teams ended up matching up very well and the game came down to the wire.

Brooklyn fired their HC Kenny Atkinson on Saturday who’s well-respected across the league and shouldn’t be without a job for too long. Now the new HC of the Nets will have the challenge of trying to bring the burrough it’s first Championship with Kyrie & KD having to mesh well with Dinwiddie & LeVert. Ty Lue is the early favorite thanks to his past of winning a Championship with Kyrie Irving.
Kenny Atkinson’s 190 losses are the 3rd-most by a Nets coach in franchise history.
Only behind Kevin Loughery (318) and Lawrence Frank (241). https://t.co/BRaZ0PRSq9
