@james_siejk @TheJordanTruth You DO realize that that Bird’s road Ts% was 5% lower than his home TS% in his career? It wasn’t just 3 pointers.

@MythNix @TheJordanTruth You do realize during Birds era they did not have 3 point lines in high school and college - meaning he wasmt shooting 3's until the NBA.

@TheJordanTruth Bird shot 33% from 3 on the road, on real rims. He was a function of Boston’s loose rims.

can't be bothered with bs
@poolkaiconvo @CallMe_Kratos See, what I'm trying to understand is, when Kobe came up short & lost, context matters, yet folks who bring up LeBron coming up short with the Lakers, never seem to use that same energy. Interesting how that works

@Stylestheonee @FastbreakHoops5 Bird isn't even mentioned in the GOAT conversation. Lebron is and that should be enough - The negativity comes with being in that conversation. You are talking about Birds second year in the league and he won a championship? Bron is better defender but Bird not bad

@james_siejk @FastbreakHoops5 The standard of being one the greatest ever he had single digit scoring games back to back in the finals Bron will never not be able to hear about 2011 but you never hear about Larry and Bron is a better passer defender scorer and has better handles

@Stylestheonee @FastbreakHoops5 Of course I believe that. Lebron is bigger, jumps higher Bird is a better shooter, better handles, better passer, better with his back to the basket ... Bird is just better at almost every aspect of the game What standard is that?

@jemelehill Jordan was the undisputed face of the league by the 1987 - 1988 season. As you are aware, he didnt win his first championship until 1991.

I appreciate the nuance in your opinion, but there is a difference between popularity, appeal and being the face of the league. Caitlin Clark is the most popular player in the WNBA, and the biggest draw. She’s not the face because she’s not creating a new standard for winning (yet). She does not have accomplishments that people want to take (yet). What team is everyone trying to beat? The Aces. What player is everyone trying to match? A’ja Wilson. The standard for winning is A’ja. Michael Jordan became the face of the NBA because he became the standard by which every player is measured. Everyone wanted to stop him. Caitlin isn’t there.
Robert Griffin III@RGIII

Caitlin Clark is the face of the WNBA. She just had a 45 POINT 10 ASSISTS DOUBLE DOUBLE with 4 steals, 2 blocks and 2 rebounds. Shot 11/18 from the field and 6/10 from 3 point range in 29 minutes with a +16 +/-. Other players have scored more points this year and in years pasts, but most of all, IT WAS EXCITING. That’s why the fans love watching her play. Her style is just different than what they are used to seeing. Caitlin Clark is UNDOUBTEDLY the most popular player in the WNBA. Caitlin Clark is a record breaking great player on and off the court. There is no denying that. Caitlin Clark has helped bring record breaking viewership, crowds and money with her to the WNBA. The issue in the WNBA right now amongst the players is that when you say someone is the “FACE OF THE WNBA” every competitive player will only conceded that designation to a player that they believe as earned it with their play on the court. The “Face of the WNBA” to the players and former players is A’Ja Wilson. She is respected as such by her peers because she is the best player in the WNBA, the only 4 time WNBA MVP and has won 3 WNBA Championships. The Face of the WNBA to the fans is Caitlin Clark. She is the player that excites the masses the most with her play style and has broken numerous WNBA records in her first 3 season. And there lies the disconnect. Michael Jordan was the face of the NBA before he won a Championship, but it came with extreme push back from the rest of the league in how they guarded him and treated him. LeBron James was the face of the NBA before he won a Championship, but it came with extreme push back from the rest of the league in how they guarded him and treated him. When players feel like they are being overshadowed by a player they feel doesn’t have the accolades to warrant it, they fight it. They don’t respect it. But there is a difference between being the face of the WNBA and being the best player in the WNBA. Definition of Face of the any professional league, “Title given to the league's most recognizable, marketable, and impactful player at any given time.” The fans have spoken on this matter, but many players and former players won’t like it because the gap in the accomplishments between A’Ja Wilson and Caitlin Clark is massive. Caitlin Clark is the face of the WNBA before she has won a championship and it has come with extreme push back from the players in the way she is guarded and treated. Just like Michael Jordan and LeBron James were. Will Caitlin Clark ever become the best player in the WNBA? She can. She has the ability to. But right now, she is the WNBA’s most recognizable player. That’s not disrespectful to the other great players in the WNBA, it’s the reality of where the WNBA was before and after Caitlin Clark showed up. Regardless, it’s okay to celebrate the greatness of all the WNBA’s great players without turning it into a race war. For the players, for the fans, for the WNBA and for the kids watching, this has to stop.

Charles Barkley Says Michael Jordan Didn’t Want Isiah Thomas on the Dream Team Shannon Sharpe: The Dream Team was supposed to take the best 12 players. They ended up taking 11 NBA players, and they took Christian Laettner. lA lot of people believe that Isiah Thomas was one of the best 11 NBA players. A lot of people believe, Charles, he was better than John Stockton. Charles Barkley: Uh, I think he was a better player than John Stockton. Shannon Sharpe: Then why didn’t he get to go on the team? Charles Barkley: Number one, that is an amazing question because I’m so glad I get a chance to straighten this out. They never asked me personally about Isiah Thomas, probably Isiah Thomas should have been on the team. They asked Michael Jordan did he have anything to do with it. It actually just came out in the last year where he said, “I’ll play as long as Isiah don’t play.” Shannon Sharpe: Well, he wasn’t going to be on the team. Whoever Michael didn’t want on the team wasn’t going to be on the team. Charles Barkley: Yeah. They were not going to be on the team.

Reputation fades faster than the tape. Every era's got a guy whose actual numbers hold up better than the way people talk about him now.
