Nets v Sixers is hilarious. One set of fans hoping to tank and get the best chances for the draft, the other hoping to win and get into the play in. End result, both sets of fans end up unhappy 🤣 Only in the #NBA

If @bsky.app can figure out how to harness the community to fact check and moderate itself, it would be huge for the app Utilising the community to self police themselves will naturally build a larger more bought in user base It's probably why Wikipedia works so well

I see what the #Nets are doing. They're taking out all their scorers until Ben starts taking those 10 shots Jordi wants him to take. #NBASky

Way too early, but has there ever been a team that started a season as contenders and ended it with the worst record? Would be wild, but also very #Sixers #NBASky
