It’s looking like longtime users who spent years building their accounts are being pushed out for a TikTok-style pivot, gutting the original real-time news flow that made this platform successful to begin with.

@Shane00 Thing about these guys is they just saw something that's NEVER happened in basketball. Not ever. Their response isn't that it's pretty cool but primes matter more. Their response is, it's not even impressive. Come on.

We lived through it, and both eras. Jordan is the goat because when he reached his prime NOBODY could beat him. LeBron can’t say that.
T.Y.@Tyvonnii

@OmarKelly Understandable. He created the need for a tackle. I gotchu. Aaron’s impact can’t be as big or important cause Lawerence came first. Nobody from the Jordan era will ever say LeBron is the goat cuz that’s not what they grew up on

@shellzRC80 @NycVipers When Iverson won MVP in 2001 and 4 scoring titles and Tracy McGrady won back to back scoring titles and both consistently finished higher in MVP voting . Or when Wade later. There was never a time Jordan, Magic, Kareem or LeBron had contemperaries like that.

@harry786g The resume is nothing like the guys in the Top 5. It's a Top 10ish resume for sure, which is great! Bam is second. 36 players have done that. . 15 players have won as many. He did shoot a lot. 27 players have as many. 6, 7, and 8 are legit. It's an exhibition

@NycVipers Dude. The Kobe shit drives me crazy. Most of his career, he wasn't the best shooting guard in the league. He was never the best player. There's no real evidence other than team success, which counts. Then words like "killer" and "mamba" that mean nothing

@LeShendyJames They literally played faster when Magic played. So, to double or triple his assists, teams would have to shoot double or triple the percentage, right? He gonna have a team shooting 125 percent from the field? Make it make sense.

@kiw6667 @NycVipers Or like, Penny was in the exact same position with Shaq. He had his own shoe, Lil Penny commercials, Blue Chips. Shaq switches teams, his next best teammate happens to be the second coming?

@JamesPleasant15 @NycVipers Facts. I have kobe in the top 10 because he was genuinely a great player but they always try to use 5 rings as a reason to put him top 3 like he didn’t get carried by Shaq.

@Tuff__Crowd Magic Johnson was great. They played at a faster pace then. So, how will he get more assists with fewer possessions. His team gonna shoot 80 percent and never get fouled?

@6Steeler @Shane00 He went out and recruited another hall of famer (Rodman) because they couldn't beat the Magic.

@Shane00 Your an idiot. And you know this is the difference between today's player and mike. The dude was so mad about this they went out and went 72 and 10 and then 3 peated again. LeBron would had switched teams and made sure he had 2 starting all-star players on his new team

@NBAStatGuy_ Also, the words people use. Homie was playing basketball. "Maniac killer" what? Because he took some elbow jumpers? They just say stuff that can't be measured or argued with and sounds tough.

Maniac killer that quit the game thrice and only one with a combination of the best team and best coaching staff. It’s the same story with Kobe… while he quit in a game 7. At some point yall gotta stop lying about these dudes like we werent there
CoachBroker@CoachBroker

Lebron is amazing. Never been a guy so good for so long. I don't like downplaying what he has done. But MJ was an absolute maniac killer, and you young people just dont get it. Hype up LBJ, he deserves it. But this MJ assault every time is something I can't not speak on.

@getnickwright Contenders: B-Hop beating Tarver. But, he fought once that year. Brady, but guys like Favre and Breese played that position just as well at that age. Bonds...PEDs.

For the gamblers: 5 days ago the Lakers were… +650 to win this series +10000 to win the West +15000 to win the Title As of this moment the Lakers are… -135 to win this series +2500 to win the West +5500 to win the Title

This game ended in the first 6 minutes of the 2nd half when LeBron tortured Sengun in the pick and roll repeatedly and played him off the court. 28-8-7 for the oldest guy in the league to go up 2-0 in a series the other team opened as a -800 favorite. Impossible.

@8_24Mambalytics No idea what that graphic is trying to prove. Hard to even respond. Better scorer? Maybe, but wildly less efficient. He just shot a hell of a lot more. Better shooter, probably? Especially early in LBJs career. Better defender... no. Better two way player? Wtf? How?

Bron Stans: “Bron was an underdog!!” Reality: Even when Bron was favored/home court advantage, he still lost more than Kobe.

@jordankobewade7 13 years their cares overlapped. LeBron won 4 MVPs to Kobe’s 1. LeBron finished higher in MVP voting 9 of those seasons. LeBron had higher VORP and PER 12 seasons. Higher BPM all 13. Both had 2 Championships, but LeBron got to 7 finals, Kobe made 3. It's not really close

4-6 is the finals. thats what we are referring to. if we’re talking about the same teams the other faced the same years, lets not leave out the previous 2 seasons where kobe beat the magic and celtics who beat bron as a 1 seed favorite. brons record is 4-6 no matter how much you hate it.
Nathan Daugherty@N8Dgolf

@jordankobewade7 Yes it does. You say “4-6” because LeBron lost to Mavs in the Finals. Kobe got swept by the same Mavs team before the finals. You can’t ignore that. If it’s Kobe vs Bron, you can’t use the Mavs loss as a negative to LeBron 😂😂😂 Kobe was swept, earlier in the playoffs
