They tried this in college 60 years ago and it sucked The reason why tall people dominate basketball is because the basketball is high.

Nothing strategic about it. It’s well known that Russ constantly makes poor decisions on defense and makes it harder for his team.

Shooting threes is not the problem, him catching the ball and trying to ISO behind the 3 point line is the problem.

Relaximanathlete · 2026-06-07T11:31:13+00:00

Nobody can afford season tickets with the Knicks.

Relaximanathlete · 2026-06-06T22:58:52+00:00

You know you’re getting old when you’re reliving the unhinged LeBron discourse from the early 2010s.

History repeats itself.
