Not sure if it was talked about but Steph won the Kareem Abdul-Jabbat Social Justice Award and of course everyone turned to the affordable housing project next to his backyard.
AITA for thinking that people are just using this to take potshots at him and that it’s not too much for him to ask for privacy? The “low-income housing” provided on that lot would be near $700,000 range anyways
So if Dunleavy would be the presumed successor, I wonder how he’s perceived by the players? Obviously, Myers is respected, but MDJ has the cred of being a former player and growing up around the league because of his dad.
I was never a big fan of him as a player, but that has nothing to do with his front office ability nor his perception amongst the players.
Started of as a genius and then built an empire that now controls the industry whilst taking over Franchises until they churn out shit (looking at you Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Live Action, insert your own childhood beef), all the while making it all about them.
I think Denver/Boston could be an interesting Finals but it's hard for me to see the Heat beating Denver because a team led by Bam and Butler doesn't get Jokic far away enough from the rim defensively.
Also true of a team led by LeBron and AD and really (due mainly to their approach rather than their abilities) a team led by Booker and KD. I think the Nuggets could be vulnerable to elite guard play that could take advantage of Jokic's footspeed but that matchup never really materialized. Plus Jokic damn near might be the best defensive rebounder in the league? So letting him stay near the basket is really playing to his strengths on that end (and obviously he's an all-time great on offense).
That said, Spo is incredible and maybe he'll have something up his sleeve and I'll feel dumb for underestimating the Heat again. As long as the Lakers don't win, I'm satisfied.
Phoenix has yet to reach final stage of interviewing candidates for its head coaching vacancy and are expected to meet with Milwaukee associate head coach Charles Lee and Golden State assistant Kenny Atkinson
I’d like to see the entire league reduced to 3 teams per conference, with only the absolute best players at every position. No more salary caps and mechanisms that limit 2-3 elite players per team. No more 82 games of utter mediocrity and injury. No more accommodating of mediocre players that force elite players to compromise their vision and moderate their talent.
Imagine every single game, played at the highest level, and played by the best of the best.
And instead of the knee-jerk argumentation and impulse to debate the practicalities…just bask in the fantasy of hyper-elite basketball like we’ve never seen before.
Random, but funny.

"Andrew Wiggins isn’t the player he once was"
Lol. What?

Lebron James, the Walt Disney of the NBA.

Celtics beat the Heat 116-99. Celtics outscored the Heat 66-43 in the 2nd half.
So this one goes to Boston. Then they return home to play game 5. When does the pressure shift to Miami?
Smartless on Tour (on Max) is hilarious.
Oh, I forgot. Scott Foster is officiating tonight's game.
Celtics are rolling now. This could be an amazing turn.
Celtics’ chances might have crept up to like 25-30% with this W. A 3-1 deficit with two home games (and more talent, arguably) seems very doable.
This will be a bad loss for Miami.
Awesome block…
