it’s so amazing when you’re handwriting and you get to a word with two t’s and you get to do one big line across for both of them. life can be amazing occasionally though also still very painful

at his peak a player: -played 4 series against 3 ATG defenders at his position and averaged 27/14 on +7% -was a top 15-20 defender ever -and a premier passing big of his time -won MVP and is completely forgotten even relative to other stars of his era+by his own team's fanbase

NBA Finals Closeout Duel (2002 NBA Finals, Game 4): Shaquille O'Neal: 34-10-4-1-2 Kenyon Martin: 35-11-2-1-1

@pitlessball please do Kenyon Martin 35 points and 11 rebounds in the Finals 2002. K-Mart made me a Nets fan and I wore #6 my whole life 🐐



Shutterbug 😭 literally a better game than they’ve made this decade

This could make a grown man cry

he’s in a defensive ecosystem not designed to output gaudy production in the playoffs maintaining neutral efficiency with his creation burden - saving them from overreliance on volatile offensive players - was impressive

Okc winning the ring has really overshadowed how underwhelming shai was in this past playoff run…however I do think his last 2 regular seasons have put him in bitw conversations but he hasn’t overcome giannis and Luka yet imo

Kevin Durant says it’d be ‘dope’ to see Russell Westbrook sign with the Rockets “Russ is a legend, and I think he deserves to be in the NBA right now. I think he deserves to walk out of the NBA on his terms. So yeah, that’ll be dope.”🔥 (Via @UpAndAdamsShow )

Alright so I compiled some rim finishing numbers for a few of the best guys I could find. There are others like Amare, Griffin, Jokic, Embiid, Zion etc. but their numbers are noticeably worse than these guys. And I didn't want to include very low volume guys/dunk merchants like…

he’s doing a lot of the off-ball stuff curry, miller, stockton, etc., get praised for it’s partially how from 1999-03 he consistently led +3 relative playoff offenses despite the offensive limitations around him

he didn’t have the teammates to fully maximize his off-ball gravity

This is still, by far, one of the greatest moments in NBA preseason history. Steph a menace 😭

She’s trying to have a layered conversation about finding your identity being with a superstar husband and being a mom. But yall too stupid and biased to digest the talking points

Ayesha Curry is going viral AGAIN for saying that she never wanted to have kids, she had her own career goals, and that Steph doesn’t understand her 👀😳
