Flag On The Take

Just know that bond me and J1 have unbreakable!!!

In Dec, a reader alerted me that the Jaire Alexander trade does not appear on the Eagles' transaction page. It does on the Ravens' and the NFL's transaction pages. I asked the Eagles multiple times if that trade went through or was rescinded, and they declined comment. (cont.)

Colin Cowherd on the criticism Bam is receiving for scoring 83 points: “Bam Adebayo scored 83 points last night. Everybody is attacking him. This is what we do in America. The minute there’s success we have to tear everybody down. 83 is 83. He’s an excellent basketball player. When Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points his team was fouling the Knicks to get extra possessions. When Kobe scored 81 against an awful Raptors team, the Lakers led by 15 with 4:30 left and Kobe scored another 11. Bam had 31 in the 1st! 62 after 3 quarters! It was totally legitimate! Every star in this league has had the chance to play the Wizards and they don’t score 83!” (Via @TheHerd)

Mike Greenberg on people b*tching about Bam on Twitter: “For people on Twitter saying they made the end of that game bad, you never saw the end of that game in 1962 (wilt)… A relative thing happened that same night, the Knicks were intentionally fouling Chamberlain teammates so he wouldn’t try to go for 100 points. History doesn’t write down how you got there, history writes down the number. History will record forever that last night Bam Adebayo scored more points in any game ever except for Wilt Chamberlain” (Via @GetUpESPN)

Nikola Jokic on SGA tying Wilt with 126 consecutive 20-point games “I don’t know that people know how hard it is to do that. To make 20 pointsin 10 (straight) games, not 120 whatever it is, it’s special. He’s a special player.”

Here's a #WorldBaseballClassic tiebreaker grid for Pool B, ahead of the final game.

Wilt. Bam. Kobe.

Jeff Teague on Bam Adebayo scoring 83 points: “N***a scored 83 in a game, a pick up game, a mens game is damn near impossible. For you to get 83 in a NBA game against number 1,2 picks is crazy.” (Via @club520podcast)

Giannis Antetokounmpo on Bam Adebayo's 83 point game: "It doesn't matter how you get there. All that matters is that you got it. Like in 30 years from now, nobody's going to remember how many free throws he shot. I don't think I remember how many shots Kobe had or how many free throws he made or threes. All you remember is 81. Wilt, 100. You don't remember how they scored. So, at the end of the day, he got 83 points."

"Maybe the Ravens were having buyers remorse." @BMac_SportsTalk on the stunning Maxx Crosby development

The only 3 players to score 81+ Points in NBA History: Wilt Chamberlain Kobe Bryant Bam Adebayo

A'JA WILSON IS HYPED FOR BAM ADEBAYO

BAM GOT 81!!!!! 😱 HE TIES KOBE BRYANT FOR THE SECOND-HIGHEST SCORING PERFORMANCE EVER!!!

Bam Adebayo making history. Breaking Kobe's record. 83 points in a single NBA game. Chills.

Bro actually gave us a departing gift. True Eagle at heart 😭🤞🦅
