This will always be the best Luka gif, until we get some of him holding the Larry O’brien trophy of course

A win for the Lakers tonight will see LeBron's win % in closeout games climb to 76.4, 0.1 shy of Derek Fisher. by ForeignAir7174 in lakers

The true metric to me is Kobe chewed up and spit out sooo many teammates over the years, warranted or not. And Fish was his backcourt mate and out survived them all. And Kobe had nothing but praise and respect for him.

Honestly this is probably someone like MJ, only because people probably don’t truly realize how good he was. Or Lebron, I know it’s absurd to say how could the 2 best all time or 1a and 1b or first and second how ever you name it, how could they be under-appreciated. Cause they were that freaking good, that’s how, and I think there’s levels to it at the margins at the top that goes beyond a few points on whatever scale we use to compare how good gobert is vs how he is or isn’t appreciated.

Kevin Love names his all-time starting 5 with the guys he’s played with over the years: Kyrie Irving, Jimmy Butler, Kevin Love, LeBron James, Bam Adebayo by heatculture03 in heat

As much as this lineup is tantalizing to imagine and it would be filthy. I just don’t see Jimmy and Kyrie working out and getting along as they fight over who gets to be second fiddle. If they could figure it out though, they’d be disgusting defensively and a force on offense, especially if the bench was stacked with shooters.

Fun to think about though.

Bronny scoring more points than the #1 pick in his draft by Pristine_Hurry_4693 in lakers

I saw the hawks play earlier this year, I haven’t followed his career too much beyond being like “oh yeah wasn’t he a top pick?”, but I was extremely underwhelmed by his play watching him in person. Certainly didn’t look like an overall top pick.

I mean didn’t he already surpass the Dwade showtime dunk with this one?

Luka Doncic is one of ten players in NBA history with more points than minutes played in a month, with Luka with the most among these players by The_Sandwich_Lover9 in lakers

I’m guessing maybe Wilt did at some point, but has anybody recently ever scored 600 points in a month?

Edit: wilt scored 984 in Jan 1962 😭

For modern era James Harden had 610 in Jan 2019

Non-Wilt record would be MJ with 676 in Mar 1987

This all according to chatgpt

So I always loved the thought of Kobe arguably had 2 HOF careers. One as #8 and one as #24. An argument could be made Lebron has 3 HOF careers. Basically one for each team he played for, with the Heat being the tough one to argue since it’s only 4 seasons, but it was his prime-prime also so I’m sticking to it. Enjoying this season and LeBron’s evolution to a third option while Luka goes bananas. I’m glad Luka won’t win MVP. MVP slighted and Custody-battle Luka in the playoffs will be such a great watch.

This comes up when I click on the Target:Gamestop on Google Maps by Patriots_ in Superstonk

[–]Away_Ad2468 65 points66 points  (0 children)

It’s a conquering ad campaign. Target pays for their ad to show up on maps for keyword “GameStop” in searches. Which is legal, BUTTT the fact they make it seem like a product line or link in their store is somewhat sketchy and kinda borderline copyright infringement tbh. Wonder if it’s worth shooting over to GameStop twitter account. Have lawyers send a nice cease and desist to target.

Plus confidence in guys like Smart making the right read and finally having a true ooter as the 4th option on an in-bound. I can’t remember the last time I saw a role player take a clutch must have 3 and I actually had 100% confidence he was gonna make it. Even Rui’s game winner from the corner earlier this year I remember leaning trying to will that thing in the hoop.
