I stopped calling Luka Stan’s crazy when I took a step back and remembered I’ve closely followed most of LeBron James’ career and seen how media manipulation has damaged his reputation. Like it’s so clear 77 has a higher bar to clear than everyone else. He has a team ppl trolled most of the season as the 3 seed while putting up historic numbers and nobody outside the Laker fanbase cares.😂

Luka Doncic was ranked 3rd on the MVP ladder at the All-Star break Since then:
— Most Player of the Week awards 
— Averaging 35/8/8 And somehow he has moved down to 4th on the latest rankings update??

Garry Kasparov on the modern World Championship: “I’m not trying to take anything away from Gukesh Dommaraju or Ding Liren, but for me, the story of the classical World Championship ended with Magnus Carlsen. I’m a traditionalist. In my view, the world champion should be the strongest player on the planet.”

@Variety There are bad ideas. And then there is whatever this is. Writing a sequel to ROTK is INSANE. Absolutely insane. Also, The Silmarillion is RIGHT THERE TO USE

@FischerKing64 For a brief amount of time Fischer put far more distance between himself and every other player but Kasparov was better than everyone else by a comparable margin and he did it for far far longer. And Carlsen did it/is doing it in a much tougher era.

Bobby Fischer was able to defeat the Soviet school of chess by copying it, and then subverting it through a long term plan. He learned from reading their magazines, studying their games. In the 1960s learning certain openings and structures inside and out was the way to victory. This is something Botvinnik was teaching all the Soviet masters. And they passed this training on. Fischer picked it up in their literature. He didn’t have a Soviet teacher - which is another reason to admire his achievement. Beyond opening analysis - the USSR masters would focus on consistent endgame play. Fischer became proficient in winning endgames where he had a bishop and his opponent had a knight - he studied this endlessly and became unbeatable in such situations. And he mastered rook endings - which every GM must do. But his masterstroke to the World Championship was hiding his ideas until 1972. Fischer was so good that he beat everyone to become the challenger to Boris Spassky. But in doing so he played the openings everyone expected him to play. What he had been playing for a decade. The Soviets knew what he would do, prepared for it - but Fischer beat them anyway. Then he shifted course. When he played Spassky for the actual World Championship in Iceland, he unleashed new ideas in the Benoni, the Alekhine, the Queen’s Gambit. These were openings he mostly avoided his entire career. He had planned this stuff for years. For one moment in 1972. And he delivered. It’s an extraordinary achievement. It was a feat of great planning. And Fischer was the GOAT because he put far more distance between himself and every other player than anyone else - including Kasparov and Carlsen - has ever achieved.

Why Russian chess is declining, according to Karpov In an interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda, 12th World Champion Anatoly Karpov 🇷🇺 gave a blunt take on why Russia no longer dominates chess. He says the core issue is the disappearance of the Soviet chess school, a system that once produced generations of elite players through structured training, top coaching, and strong institutional backing. Today, nothing has replaced it. Karpov also pointed at the state, noting the lack of a serious development program and limited initiative from the Ministry of Sports. In his view, rebuilding success wouldn’t be difficult, if there was real political will. The results show it: Russian players are now barely present in the world top 10, something once unthinkable. According to Karpov, this decline isn’t random. It’s the consequence of a lost system, while other nations continue to invest and rise.
