Today's UPDATES

There's big changes coming to the NBA once its seventy-second season, but we will take a look at a few of them later on. Max Sports has another update on the MLB Playoff Picture, the Minnesota Vikings are closing on a Wild Card Spot, for their magic number is now at 1. The Los Angeles Dodgers, with their 101st win last night, have clinched the best record this season and will home field advantage in the NLDS and NLCS, also it looks like the Boston Red Sox will wrap up the AL East division and the New York Yankees will have to settle for the first Wild Card Spot meaning their they will host the AL Wild Card game next week. Believe or not, the Chicago Cubs still haven't won the NL Central division, but their magic number is down to 1, which means if they defeat the St. Louis Cardinals tonight, they will be going back to the postseason to defend their World Series title. Finally, the Cleveland Indians and Houston Astros are in battle for the top seed in the American League and whoever wins that will have home field advantage through out the entire postseason. So many games to watch today and tonight, but first see the results from last night and a lot more.

The 2017-18 NBA Season starts October 17th and teams have piling up on new players to contend with the current NBA Champions Golden State Warriors. One team that we all know is looking for redemption is the Cleveland Cavaliers, they've lost Kyrie Irving to the Boston Cletics, but in exchange they acquired Isaiah Thomas, Jadar Crowder and Derrick Rose. Today's #TwitterTrend is about the Cavaliers' newest addition to the team, Dwyane Wade, yeah that's right, we'll gonna have a Miami Heat reunion between Wade and LeBron James. Dwyane Wade signed a one year deal with the Cavaliers yesterday for $2.3 Million dollars, now this could be the right thing the Cavaliers to contend with the Golden State Warriors who blew everyone away last season with the secret weapon Kevin Durant, the starting line up for the Cavaliers will indeed be crazy this time around as its hard to pick out the right players as part of the new Big Five of Cleveland. It's likely that LeBron and Dwyane will have a start together this season as the chemistry between these two players is hard to match, one question I have on my mind is what do fans think about this new deal? Well as I predicted, the response is incredible, take a look.

This is probably the best team LeBron has ever had. We actually have legit starting five and a BENCH! Dwyane Wade thank you

Spencer @HEAT_Nation305

Seeing Derrick Rose, Wade and IT run around trying to Guard Steph and Thompson is going to be magical.

Earlier this week was NBA Media Day, which means that players and their respective teams would be taking photos and taking participation in press conferences before the season starts on October 17th. Web Choice has obtain a few videos from ESPN's YouTube channel which tell that a couple of players, who have found new homes, are very excited about the new NBA Season and what they have plan for it. A few players you need to see right at this moment are Kyrie Irving who spoke being with the Cletics now, Isaiah Thomas and how he plays to put on a show with the Cavaliers, and Carmelo Anthony who has spent years with the New York Knicks, spoke about how he is looking for a fresh start with the Oklahoma City Thunder while wearing a hoodie under his new Thunder jersey.
