Yall pray for Trey Murphy man. These fans gonna turn like a NASCAR racetrack if Zion plays 62 games and the Pels still end up in the 30s.

@owaddled @dommiecito @khrisody Find me three journalistic sources that criticize Pablo’s reporting. Just because you dont like the reporting or the story he is telling doesn’t mean the research and reporting ethics were wrong

@dommiecito @CW_Chambers @khrisody Exactly. Every time a real journalist like Mike Vorkunov or Baxter Holmes releases an article on the story Pablo's sensationalist "isn't this weird" claims take a hit.

I’m not going to criticize Pablo Torre for bringing the story to light—by most accounts, there were legitimate questions that needed answers. But the way he handled the reporting, and especially the tone he took toward the people involved, pushed it into a strange space. Once the Clippers declined to comment, he either refused—or at least appeared unwilling—to seriously engage with alternative explanations. The framing became: “the Clippers did this, here’s how,” and anyone questioning that was dismissed as a Steve Ballmer loyalist. We saw a similar reaction when Mark Cuban pushed back—he was met with immediate criticism rather than real engagement. There was also a broader tone throughout the reporting that felt off. The way billionaires were discussed—this assumption that they’ll do anything to win, disregard rules, operate without limits—came across as more ideological than analytical. It lacked nuance and, at times, coherence. But the strangest part is how the spotlight was placed. Based on Torre’s rhetoric, Ballmer was treated as the central figure, when the focus arguably should have been on Joe Sandberg and his role within Aspiration.

The Best In The World is not always the MVP of a given season. We have seen this before and it’s happened again.

@kybmma @HazelAppleyard 14 year olds have girlfriends and boyfriends. If you are an adult in a serious relationship you have a partner, a fiancée or a spouse.

@HazelAppleyard So many posts like this start with using partner instead of girlfriend or husband. Definitely a correlation in people who have the ideology to use partner in their vocabulary and get into terrible relationships.

@crestbreath @jjmaples55 Yall arguing semantics. zion does not affect high level basketball in a positive way

@jjmaples55 He's averaging 21 and 6 shooting 60% from the field. This isn't "remotely impactful" to you?

Zion not being a remotely impactful player in the NBA is so wild to me 99th percentile physical tools

@Swizzle2Nice @BigWos Coming from you thats a fucking compliment.

@CW_Chambers @BigWos My nigga you are a full blown retard. What the actual fuck does talking down on a city have to do with being black? Are you fucking insane? CW Chambers, you are a fucking idiot.

When did the city of Memphis become the embodiment of all black people in America?

@incredibleholt @BigWos …

@CW_Chambers @BigWos But rich white dudes aren’t the ones making fun of Memphis…it’s rich black dudes. It seems a large number of players in NBA feel the same way. If black dudes don’t feel safe in a “black city”, maybe it’s time to look in the mirror and make some serious cultural changes

@BigWos Thats how you roll? I dont know shit about LA? Or black line dancing… but you wont catch me kee-keeing and coonin it up with some white dudes about it. I aint even militant like that. Its just common fucking sense.

@BigWos When did it become acceptable to make any part of the culture even the parts you dont fuck with or no anything about, regardless of its perceived universality, the butt if jokes around rich white dudes?

@JeffreyLuscombe Because they dont know which oligarch will benefit from it the most and anything that benefits society is seen as a handout there they will sit on the sidelines until one of their billionaires tells them how to feel about it.

Why do Conservatives hate this so much? Anyone?

@twotonefanatics x.com/rcbg62/status/… Exhibit A

@twotonefanatics You would think that, but that same dad is gonna complain about how trashy DT Nashville has become. Its the same shit.

Would the Grizzlies have a bigger fan base if they moved to Nashville? Barely. But the amount of suburban dads taking their 10 year old to see their favorite NBA player on a random Tuesday night would increase 10x.

@goodstructure @factpostnews Except wars. Wars are free.

@factpostnews The government should not be responsible for any of that crap. People can do it on their own. They want to be nursed, unfortunately. Nothing is free, people.

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

@DDQHAGG Get rid of Borrego lol

Offseason plans: Get rid of Borrego Trade Zion & Poole If you can get a 2026 first for Trey then pull the trigger Build around Queen and fears, if it doesn’t work out, just try again and again until the franchise is sold

@nuggetsfan4ever 4 is better. Rockets are a mess and you have beat OKC either way

Need the Lakers to lose vs OKC if we want the 3rd seed

perhaps MJ is the GOAT after all

The NFL is the only league that seems to understand this from players to executives to league administrators. That’s why they win that’s why they will always win.

The macro issue is there’s always gonna be haves & have nots… any business needs to have broad mass appeal…if you tell large swaths of your overall market that they’re worthless why would the next stop buy in? The reason the NFL is King is because of broad regional appeal.
