This hot-handed effort spells trouble for opponents, since the Big Red goes out of its way to find looks from beyond the arc.

Were Pete Rose still hustling around the basepaths, the stain of his wagers would've long since faded. But history shows that had they been able to atone on the playing field, they might've earned back their pedestals. Kobe Bryant, whose jersey...
