J.B. Bickerstaff didn’t hesitate to call out the officiating on Monday night.
Bickerstaff and the Detroit Pistons stumbled in the second half on Monday and fell to Donovan Mitchell and the Cleveland Cavaliers 112-103. The loss in Game 4 of their second-round playoff series tied it up 2-2.
But it wasn’t just the loss, or the record-tying performance that Mitchell had in the second half, that Bickerstaff was upset with. It was the foul calls, or in his mind, the lack thereof.
“It’s unacceptable, it is,” Bickerstaff said, via the Detroit News’ Coty Davis.

Handed his County Championship debut by Glamorgan, 18-year-old bowler Tom Norton was cock-a-hoop with his figures of 3-75 as Somerset amassed 354 in their first innings after being put in to bat in Cardiff by the hosts.
His next three wickets in the visitors’ second innings on Sunday took the young seamer into dreamland, ripping through Somerset’s top order with three successive balls for a record-setting hat-trick.

The Lakers find themselves in ‘no-man’s land’ heading into Game 4. The Thunder‘s average margin of victory in the first three games has been +19.
The bitter truth is that this Lakers team is not built for nor are they as successful when the game goes through Lebron James first. Without Luka Doncic in the mix, the distribution of offense is off balance.

The Minnesota Vikings ended the 2025 season with a five-game winning streak. That gave them a 9-8 record, somewhat skewing perceptions of how close they were to making the playoffs.
But the addition of Kyler Murray, and hoping to bring back a tenacious defense that ranked third in yards allowed, gives them some optimism for a return to the postseason. Sure, the rest of the NFC North is stacked, too, but this team is two years removed from winning 14 games.
Gary Davenport of Bleacher Report sees the Vikings as a team that can contend if Murray can make the offense respectable again.
The Chargers added to their tight end room Monday by agreeing to terms with former Browns tight end David Njoku.
The one-year deal is worth up to $8 million. Njoku visited the Chargers earlier this month and is now set to don the powder blue in 2026.
After previously spending nine years with Cleveland, Njoku will now catch passes from quarterback Justin Herbert. The tight end is coming off a down year, recording 293 yards with four touchdowns in his last season with the Browns.
Njoku’s best season of his career was in 2023 when he was named a Pro Bowler.

The Detroit Pistons wouldn’t have had even a chance on Monday night if not for their undersized, third-string center.
Paul Reed couldn’t quite rescue the Pistons in Game 4, not as the Cleveland Cavaliers put up a 23-0 third-quarter run and got 43 points from Donovan Mitchell.
