Music. Sports. Tech. Commerce. Different arenas. Same game. I connect the patterns others overlook. That’s where the opportunity lives.

@U_were_know If social media existed back in the day of first fight I would’ve posted the $1,100 bet ticket (Mirage Las Vegas) +2525 that paid a total of $28,875. Haven’t lost more than five bets on boxing since.

When Tyson doesn't know what to do. The formula..don't fight scared. He had absolutely no fear of Tyson. Tyson is fighting someone who is not afraid of him and came to fight! The picture of the police keeping their distance in the ring is classic. #boxing

Lawrence Tanter retiring after 40 years with Lakers espn.com/nba/story/_/id… legendary PA announcer set to become an advisor for game presentation. #WhatAVoice

@ErrolSpenceJr And Crawford went forth winning belts at 154 & 168, including beating Canelo so any shade implied is easily eclipsed by the scoreboard.

@Hoopss Add Bill Russell & Magic then the list is legit

“LeBron and Duncan are the only two players in NBA History that would make any team into a contender” - Phil Jackson

Lakers promote Lawrence Tanter to Special Adviser for Game Day Presentation latimes.com/sports/lakers/… - this legend has been a HUGE part of the Lakers home-game experience for almost forever. Can't imagine them without him.

@gbvohio3323 @raphousetv2 I wouldn’t waste an ounce of air trying to impress u or any of the jackasses like you! U add zero value to any convo thread u enter & actually believe your 💩flows uphill! Face to face debate, I’d absolutely DESTROY u now call BS on that!

@JefferyLakes @raphousetv2 Yeah your trying to sound cool however that statement didn’t make any sense but nice try their Einstein…

@uscfan981 It’s 100% ready for fertilizer farms

How accurate is this?

@FastbreakHoops5 Earvin “Magic” Johnson

Who made you love basketball?

@gbvohio3323 @raphousetv2 You can call whatever the hell you want but if he gets a ring you were informed why! Bet 💰you don’t get a ring though…#CallThat & make sure you don’t answer your own echo

@JefferyLakes @raphousetv2 I call BS

@NycVipers There may be a LeBron scandal on the horizon that will absolutely crush fanboys like you! Of course, the most delusional of y’all will attempt to spin that as greatness too! We may never know what the end looks like if that happens. Believe it or not I hope it doesn’t

My Goat 🐐 is better than your goat 23 seasons and counting

@NycVipers The only thing that’s relevant in this entire post is “Context Matters”… And the bottom line context is Jordan NEVER lost in the NBA Finals…and LeBron lost as many times as MJ won! Ultimately the stench of kissing LeBron’s @$$ gets in your brain & skews your rationale

LeBron James has never been benched in the NBA Finals for poor performance. As the primary scorer and playmaker on every Finals team he has led, his coaches have consistently relied on him to play heavy minutes in the biggest moments. Any time LeBron spent on the bench during the Finals was due to routine rest, foul trouble, or minor injuries—not because he was ineffective. ➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤ Meanwhile, Michael Jordan was temporarily benched by Phil Jackson to begin the fourth quarter of Game 6 of the 1992 NBA Finals, while the Chicago Bulls trailed. ➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤ Jordan fans call him the undisputed GOAT, yet in one of the biggest games of his career, Phil Jackson trusted Scottie Pippen and four role players to lead the comeback. ✅ Jackson opened the fourth quarter with Pippen alongside Bobby Hansen and the Bulls' second unit. That group ignited a 14–2 run, erased the deficit, and shifted the momentum while Jordan watched from the bench. If LeBron had been sitting on the bench during a Finals comeback, we'd never hear the end of it. Context matters.

@DogeRomeo Only a fool that doesn’t know basketball believes that! The Kobe led Lakers had a well-constructed team that was also well-coached. I’ve been a Lakers fan longer than you’ve been alive & there’s zero tolerance for this B.S.

Kobe won back to back championships with the worst roster to ever win! LeBron nor Jordan would win with this team, only Kobe No one talks about this, how Kobe carried bunch of nobody’s to 3 finals!

@HaterReport To Fox’s credit, Brown’s firing was also the catalyst for his trade demand because he didn’t want to play for (yet) another coach.

Mike Brown was fired the day after calling out De’Aaron Fox for making a stupid play back in 2024 that lost them the game lmao Turns out bro was RIGHT the whole time 😂🤣

@BarryOnHere What’s the win-loss record? Here’s what doesn’t work for LeBron fanboys: highlighting his stats overs W/L’s as if his teams lose in spite of his greatness! That’s weak when you’re pass-1st, make others better

LeBron James' last 35 NBA Finals games: 31.9 PPG - 11.0 RPG - 8.3 APG - 1.7 SPG - 1.0 BPG - 58.8% TS - 26.6 GmSc - 12.2 BPM Michael Jordan's 35 NBA Finals games: 33.6 PPG - 6.0 RPG - 6.0 APG - 1.8 SPG - 0.7 BPG - 55.9% TS - 24.5 GmSc - 10.9 BPM "This is cherrypicking!!" you say. LeBron EARNED the right to play in MORE Finals games than Jordan did, so that's why there's more to "cherrypick". Cope & seethe please. In summary, based on STATS, not FEELINGS. LeBron better regular season peak (2009 > any MJ year) LeBron better playoff peak (2009 > any MJ year) LeBron better Finals peak (2016 > any MJ year) LeBron better longevity (duh) LeBron better Finals competition (duh) People will keep denying the obvious however, very sad.

@afowler06 Floyd was a master exploiter of fighters with limited skills. Sure he beat several A level fighters, but he never fought anyone of Crawford’s caliber, as Bud never fought anyone of Mayweather’s caliber either! Best I’ll say is Bud could’ve beaten him, & I’d bet Bud to win

DO YOU AGREE WITH THIS LIST? I believe Crawford would have beaten mayweather, who scrapped by in a few fights, CRAWFORD BEAT EVERYONE EASY, and didn’t use catchweights and let people fight outside their primes, OPINIONS?

@bronco3016 The one who’s team-hopped the most

@TheDunkCentral @HeatCulture13 Lonzo must have Kobe wearing Big Baller Brand shoes those 4 times

Lonzo Ball says DWade is close to Kobe “Kobe’s better but it ain’t clear. Out of 10 days, he’s not getting the better of him all 10 days. I got 6-4.” (h/t @HeatCulture13 )

@sonya_dumas @ringmagazine It was a great showing by Benavidez that’s all I care about

@JefferyLakes @ringmagazine It was a flop

Artur Beterbiev shares his thoughts on David Benavidez 👀

@sonya_dumas @ringmagazine You’d fare better just saying u r a hater & a fanboy because the business of these fights should NEVER be a fan’s concern! In your mind, Beterbiev beats DB but what he & even Canelo saw vs Zurdo is neither likely does! Stop looking for others to do your fave fighter’s dirty work
