Everybody is better than Shai until it’s time to be better than Shai

This video perfectly explains why Shai is an NBA champion and Luka isn’t.

@trillestrial @NBA__Courtside The free throw disparity you speak of legit doesn't exist. You live in Candyland

@NBA__Courtside That’s such bullshit. Like other teams don’t try…. We complaining cause they the ones that get the calls. Not saying ny didn’t make mistakes but the free throw disparity is to crazy to ignore

Stephen A. Smith on Mike Brown complaining about the officiating during the OKC game: “I’m saying, listen, you look at the Oklahoma City Thunder rather than complain about them. Don’t hate, emulate. The fact is they’re the reigning defending NBA champions. They’re clearly doing something right. Figure it out. And find a way to emulate it yourself or to dwart their efforts. New York Knicks yet to do that. And that’s why since the All-Star break, the New York Knicks are 9-0 against teams under .500 and they’re 4-7 against teams above 500. That’s less than mediocre if you’re the New York Knicks against winning teams. News flash, once the playoffs arrive, that’s who you’ll be playing, winning teams.” (Via @FirstTake)

@starsbagman @Eddie_Rado !!!

@Eddie_Rado shrink

Lol

@anorxite4 @Aaron_Torres Cole had an 8 year NBA career and made many millions in the league. He had plenty to lose with an injury... but some guys care more about winning and competing with their teammates. You're jumping through lots of hoops to defend a tummy ache

@3DShort @colea45 @Aaron_Torres It's different when you know these are your final games vs having a 20 year career ahead of you. That is important too. You people forget he is a human and his career is more important than pleasing some fans for a team he'll be on for one year. Get a grip with reality dude

Darryn Peterson resume so far: * Missed half of Kansas' games * Sat out 2nd half against your biggest competition for No. 1 pick (AJ Dybantsa) * Sat out vs. No. 1 team in the country I know this will be unpopular on Twitter - but no way I'm drafting him No. 1 overall

@colea45 @Aaron_Torres Cole, I and many other fans absolutely question his competitiveness! When we have memories of KU greats like you losing teeth, playing through sickness, wearing a mask with a broken nose in games... it's impossible not to question

@Aaron_Torres Please don’t question a guys competitiveness. You loose to UNC (top 25), UConn (5th), Duke (5th), UCF (bad loss). I too am a fan and want to see him play but to say he should play through injury or illness is potentially making him get more injured

I mean retire Flory and Melvin’s jerseys. They are playing SO HARD.

@GoodmanHoops @TheFieldOf68 This is, without a doubt, the GM of a losing franchise

One NBA GM to @TheFieldOf68 about Darryn Peterson: "I think people are overreacting. I don't know if anyone has enough info yet. It's not that big of a deal to me if he can play the last month of the season. We've got guys in the NBA who miss 2 months with a strained hamstring. A lot of guys would have shut him down for the rest of the season already. People have to pump the brakes. People get the flu. People also have to remember this is just a small snapshot of his entire career. I think he's still probably the No. 1 pick, but we'll see."

Please stop comparing that kid to Kobe Bryant. I don’t care how good of a player he is. Tracy McGrady, I’ll allow it. Carmelo, cool. But at this point it’s insulting to Kobe to keep doing that.

@VicLombardi This clip is a pretty amazing homerism Rorschach test. One side sees Jokic clamping JWill’s arm and then tangled as a result, and the other side sees, well, I’m not sure what they see but they think JWill fouled him.

@jkylemann Got some Bam in him

bryson tiller doing everything

@RRinehart2012 Offense absolutely needs to run through him with DP off the floor

Not sure how you keep Tiller off the floor.

This was the worst case scenario for Lance. You can’t ever complain about fan support ever again. When you’re making $7M a year you simply can’t get embarrassed like this in this game.

@GaryBedore Bam Adebayo

Trying to figure out who Tiller reminds me of. This guy looks like the real deal to me.

@RealMNchiefsfan The broadcast has been shameless all night

The energy about PI was a lot lower when Hunter clearly held down Kelce's hand on 3rd down and when Brown's defender arrived a full half-second early. (all were PI) Ah, nevertheless.

@TronCarterNLU @KurtBenkert @SharpFootball Might want to pace yourself, TC. Could be a long night.

@KurtBenkert @SharpFootball So tacky. And then Mahomes immediately bitching, per usual.

This type of play is cheesier than the tush push.

Maybe I have become too focused on the impact that coaches have on a team's play, but it's hard to ignore the fact that the Chiefs offense went from "historic" to "excruciating to watch even when it's effective" the moment Matt Nagy became the Offensive Coordinator.
