EXCLUSIVE: Peter Reid sends Everton transfer warning after Bryan Robson and Glenn Hoddle comparison
Everton legend Paul Bracewell celebrates his 60th birthday today but Peter Reid, his partner in the Blues engine room reckons that a player who he believes operated at the same level as the likes of the more-celebrated Bryan Robson, Glenn Hoddle and Ray Wilkins doesn’t get the credit he deserves beyond the confines of Goodison Park. Signed from Sunderland for £250,000 in May 1984, Bracewell soon established himself at the heartbeat of Everton’s most-successful side and within 12 months, he had won both the League Championship and European Cup-Winners’ Cup.
Boston Celtics' Brad Stevens to Jayson Tatum after Finals - Get some rest
After Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum had a rough NBA Finals, Brad Stevens had a simple message for his team's franchise player.
Los Celtics ahuyentan fantasmas y vuelven a su lugar: las Finales
Vuelven los Celtics. Así, sin paliativos ni nada más que decir, en una frase que significa mucho más de lo que esconde, de lo que parece y de lo que dice y significa. Vuelve el equipo por excelencia de la NBA, el que dominó la competición en sus albores, una Liga que ayudó a formar, de la que es pionero y fundador junto a unos Warriors que esperan en la última serie, esa que decidirá al campeón de la temporada 2021-22. 34 años han pasado desde que Larry Bird y el penúltimo equipo icónico de Boston llegara a unas Finales. Desde entonces, solo dos participaciones, un bagaje muy lejano de lo que han sido como franquicia y dejaron de ser, perdidos en el tiempo, en la retirada definitiva de Red Auerbach, los fallos y los aciertos de Danny Ainge, la ristra de entrenadores que llegó con más o menos efectividad y el nuevo proyecto que se heredó del antiguo, el último que ganó en 2008 y también el último que aterrizó en unas Finales, en 2010. En ambas ocasiones se enfrentaron con su enemigo íntimo, unos Lakers que aprovecharon de otra forma el tiempo y les llegaron a igualar en anillos, con 17. Ahora, la oportunidad de la reivindicación es también la de la redención. La del desempate histórico, recuperar el honor y volver al sitio que ocuparon con Bill Russell, Larry Bird, Kevin Garnett. A lo más alto.
