Lebron fans really should team up with Jokic stans. With their powers combined, they may finally succeed at changing the “rings are everything” narrative. And it’s a win-win for both fan bases as that’s the biggest impediment for each one moving up the ranks. Note: All time rankings are dumb.

I was just thinking how, even up 20, the Rockets are giving significantly more effort on defense than the Lakers. And then that mental lapse happened lol. But the point still stands. And Lakers should be embarrassed.

The “ethical hooper” discourse was one of the worst things to happen in the nba. Being able to draw a foul is an elite skill. It was elite when Jordan did it. It was elite when Kobe did it. And it’s elite today. Stars have always worked on being able to get to the ft line more.

Austin Reaves on a 3-on-2 fast break with LeBron to his left and Luka to his right, and he pulls up for a 3. Honestly, I’m not even mad at the shot given the limited time (although he probably could’ve gotten it to Luka for a better look, possibly a layup). I’m just impressed by the confidence.

I’m mad at my wife right now. She saw Al Horford hit 4 3s in the first quarter and goes, “That must be how you play now. Just an old man waiting to shoot against HS and college guys at open gym.” And I’m mad because she’s more right than she realizes. And I’m 3 years younger than Horford!!!

I don’t understand this revisionist history. Chet was better than Wemby for the 1st half of the year and was rightfully the ROY favorite at that point. Chet benefited from sitting in the NBA for a year, and Wemby struggled to figure things out. Then Wemby took off and carried a bigger load 2nd half

I keep seeing previews for Greenland 2 with Gerard Butler, and all I can think about is how I never even heard of the first movie. Am I the only one to have missed this?

OKC is obviously the best team in the NBA. But are the Spurs just better than them??? What is it about the matchup that continues to give OKC such problems? Even with Wemby on limited minutes.

I’m 100% on DKs side with this. His reaction makes it pretty obvious that the fan is lying and said some horrible stuff. Racists need to get punched in the mouth again.

If many of us are quiet about politics online nowadays, it isn't that we don't care and we're not mobilized offline. We talked about this for years. We warned them. So many who are upset now did not listen! They thought they knew better than we did. So much of this suffering was preventable.

A Democratic Party not having an explicit platform of reforming the Judicial Branch after today is not a party I want to vote for. The strongly worded letters have to stop someday.

I love seeing them butthurt about it. But also, I wonder how many of the folk who criticize players for opting out of a bowl game to protect their NFL future will bring that same energy to Notre Dame who is opting out simply because they’re upset. Says a lot about their supposed character 😂

I’m happy with any result that leaves Notre Dame out, but there was no reason for them to be ahead of Miami to begin with. Don’t think Bama had a real argument to get in either after that loss. I get not punishing teams for making a conf. championship, but losing while already on the bubble? #CFP

That was a horrible call on Boozer. Even more so with the game on the line and his 5th foul. He couldn’t have been any more straight up. 🤬🤬🤬

Murray and Gordon are all-star talents even if they haven’t made the game. (Murray would be an All-Star if he played in the East). This is why it’s so annoying when Nuggets fans point out the dumb stat that Jokic hasn’t played with any other all stars as if the man didn’t have talent around him 🤦🏾‍♂️

Why would anyone owe the Spurs an apology? Kawhi immediately won a championship for a whole different country lol. I think it’s fair to say it worked out for everyone, and Kawhi continues to get paid so I doubt he’s bothered. Are Spurs fans still bitter???

Cue the Jokic stans with “but he’s never played with another all star,” as if Gordon and Murray aren’t capable of all star performances on any given night. And if not for injuries, Murray would be a multiple time all star.

Let’s go Duke!!!

Let’s go Duke!

If the season ended today, Austin Reaves would have a legitimate argument for an All-NBA selection. I’d have SGA and Luka on first team, and then Reaves would be in the mix with Maxey, Mitchell, Cade, Ant, and Brunson. And honestly, Steph and Harden (carrying the old guard) could be in the convo.

I’ve seen this critique a few times now and it certainly seems like Reddits new “hot take.” But this is also some revisionist history. At the time the groups were set, the Clippers were projected to be BETTER than the Lakers, Mavs were projected at .500, and Memphis 5-6 games less than LA.

Pharrell is a fool. Nicki Minaj is a fool. They are NOTHING like Harry Belafonte, Eartha Kitt, Sidney Poitier, Lena Horne, Pearl Bailey, Ozzie Davis and Ruby Dee. Nothing like Nina Simone, Gil Scott Heron, and others. If your words are going to hurt the community that made you rich, just STEFU!

Harden was clearly fouled. Clipper fans have a right to be upset. But then again, if your life choices have led you to being a fan of the Clippers, you’ve got bigger problems 😂

The Thunder really scored 49 points in the first quarter!?! Sheesh!

I know his tenure in Philly has been a disaster so far, but I’m really looking forward to Paul George’s return. The game is better when he’s healthy. I’m not convinced he’s washed just yet. Hope he’ll stay healthy enough to find his rhythm again this season.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

There's an entire generation of sports fans who grew up idolizing ESPN so much that it was literally their No. 1 dream in 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦 to work there one day - a dream no young sports fan will ever have anymore because they're gonna grow up viewing it as the sports equivalent of Fox News.

“Vote blue no matter who”

This administration made the decision that keeping immigration enforcement fully staffed was more important than keeping air traffic control staffed. That was a DECISION. Everyone needs to know that.

Yes it was a bad trade. But I’ll ask again what I asked then: If you are trading Luka and are NOT interested in a rebuild, what other win-now player could you have gotten that would be better than AD? Giannis, SGA, Jokic weren’t being traded. Maybe Boston does a 1:1 swap with Tatum. Who else?

That new Predator Badlands was incredible! Great action scenes, great characters, and a surprisingly good story. The last two movies in this franchise have very impressive.

Them: If we don’t open the government, people will suffer. That argument made more sense before we saw what DOGE did with the government open. It made more sense before we saw SCOTUS greenlighting everything the administration wants to do. Before we saw trump withhold funding to states/programs.

I know nothing is official yet, but I feel like I could throw up. Hi, this is me. 70% of my reliable teaching income next year will be eaten up by my health insurance, which I need because I'm chronically ill. I hope those 8 dems who voted yes never have a moment's peace.

This is important context. If you want to switch your party registration to send a message, understand the impact first. If your state has closed primaries, switching means you can’t vote for your preferred Dem unless they make the general. If open primaries, go ahead.

These clueless mother 🤬🤬🤬s. He’s admitting that the most he can hope for with this cave job is that Rs will go on record with a vote against healthcare. But we already 🤬 know where the Rs stand on these issues. The only thing this taught us is where Kaine and his pathetic colleagues stand.

“We’ll see.” We’re supposed to accept that Democratic leadership allowed this caliber of strategist to negotiate a deal with the most diabolical, mendacious group of politicians in American government.

Please do not be surprised Democrats folded. They’re still part of the problem. A moderate Democrat is still our enemy.

It was only a matter of time before moderate Democrats reminded us who they really are: spineless and pathetic. Get ready for your healthcare to skyrocket. And watch the GOP continue to disregard the law and do what they want. And why wouldn’t they? The worst they’ll face is an angry letter.

The cruelty of this administration in running to the Supreme Court to try and undo the effort to feed children and their families. Anyone who can vote for this is a sick individual.

I 🤬🤬🤬🤬 hate SCOTUS. The GOP majority is evil and needs to be stopped. The cruelty is the point with these people. For those who can, please find a food bank in your community to contribute to. Volunteer or donate as you can. The government wants people to starve.

The Austin Reaves erasure is criminal!! I’m joking. But this MVP chart doesn’t mean anything this early. Giannis might end up winning 40 games, which would likely take him out the running. It is incredible how consistent these 3 guys are though.

Let’s go #Lakers

Marcus Smart not making smart plays smh 🤦🏾‍♂️

Great defensive possession by the Lakers. Let’s see what this challenge says.

You got to challenge that, but Rui took a perfect charge. #Lakers

Yooo! That over the shoulder, no look pass from Luka 🤯 A dime!!!

I mean, they can both be wrong. Greens comments about Dak are misplaced and disrespectful, and Spears analogy of Green also misses the mark. Green is a legit HOFer, one of the best defenders to ever play the game, and the key facilitator for 4 championships. Also I love Steph, but he ain’t top 5.

What?! You mean this G-League administration is prioritizing headlines and publicity over facts and evidence?! I’m shocked 🙄 /s
