every american soccer fan has that one (or many) friend who calls soccer boring and the players soft. they don't hate it. nobody taught them how to watch it. so i wrote them a letter. share it with them before we play australia tomorrow.

@SportsStatsFan People sleep on Big Ben! We never hear him talked about anymore and he was a stud defender.

According to Thinking Basketball podcast, the 2026 Spurs had the best or 2nd best defense of all time*. In addition, the spurs with Wemby on the floor held opponents to 13pts per 100 possessions below opponents season averages. In the play by play era (1997+), only Ben Wallace on the floor on 2004 Pistons was a better defensive team by holding opponents 14pts per 100 possessions below their season averages *best or 2nd best all time determined by looking at common opponents and how spurs did vs their opponents vs how rest of league did against their opponents and doing the same for all playoff teams

Wembys defense was tremendous vs Knicks. Spurs locked down the Knicks while the Knicks offense steamrolled opponents in first 3 rounds Knicks offensive ratings Finals: 108.9 Regular season: 119.8 Conf finals: 120.8 2nd Rd: 132.3 1st Rd: 122.0 Held Knicks to 10.9 ORtg below reg season & 16.1 ORtg below their first 3 round average!

@Hero_OfThe_Day @WNBA Look at the feet it’s a foul that’s why she didn’t challenge it.. as great as she is offensively she’s gotta figure out how to defend better it’s awfully bad

👀 Are you kidding me — Caitlin Clark is furious!! 🔥 Offensive player purposely runs into Caitlin Clark, flops to the ground, refs reward her with a foul — Camera cuts to Angel Reese laughing at her, because she’s jealous. The @WNBA product is a joke 🤡

I agree, it’s not a given he will get that strength bro a given he will stay healthy enough for a large period of time. If he gets that strength and stays healthy, he not only becomes goat defender but goat player. It will unlock lots of his offense too…he doesn’t have a go to scoring move because he’s easily pushed off the block in the post or off his path on the drive.

@The_Fan_Report Think about basketball. Imagine the basket is 4 times the size. Now imagine shooting a basketball outside of the paint but there’s no goal tending and the center can stay in the paint all he wants.

@BrandonDNVR They are. Small rosters. Easily marketable because everyone sees them on screen the entire game. International appeal since Jordan. It’s all marketing through shoe/clothing companies that most people can afford.

I feel like NBA players are the most individually famous out of all American sports leagues. Am I wrong?

If you bothered to read the other listed factors in my reply, you would see how that I do not support one factor models. It takes more than training, but training the level if is the most differentiating. As an example, Mugsey Bogues was a 5’3 NBA Player, there is a Japanese player for the grizzlies at 5’7 currently. There are many other athletes who stack up differently than the their often more chosen genetic counterparts. I can keep going. Advanced training leads to improved skillsets and with some fortune, anyone has a chance to be a pro athlete if they put in the work. It’s mire than genetics. We all have good genetics.

@SportsStatsFan @emmitonair I don’t know that he can keep the strength or speed needed. When you’re that tall, it just takes longer for you to move your limbs. The muscle may bog him down. He’s the best rim protector we’ve seen in a while though! Hopefully he can avoid injury!

He can guard the perimeter but not as good as guard or SF. They hunted him to pull Wemby out of the paint and see what he does. With no other spur on the court able go provide any rim protection, it means Wemby pulled from the paint leaves the paint wide open. KAT only average 13ppg in the finals and Brunson was well below his scoring efficiency numbers first 4 games but the great game 5 put him below but lot extremely below his regular season efficiency. But Wemby has some improvements that can be made on defense that are needed to push him to goat defensive player tier. Mostly it’s his lack of strength which allows bigger guys who drive or post to push Wemby off center for decent shots.

You don’t realize it until these guys are actually next to each other but the difference is crazy, I thought AJ Brown was some 6”4 monster before he came to Philly just for him to be smaller than Maxey who’s a “small guard”

Zach LaVine is BIGGER than Erling Haaland???

@sikomekwa2004 @defundlp @BrownsBama @killianhoops @KyleMcCordMuse That’s because the league is the cream of the crop. You have to be skilled and athletic if you’re a smaller guard to be there. The taller you are, the less skill comes into play. You can’t teach height. More 6’8”guys can guard 6’3” guys than vice versa.

@SportsStatsFan @emmitonair Wemby can’t guard on the perimeter. It was exposed in the finals when KAT blew by him and Brunson hunted him on the switch. Elite rim protector though.

@emmitonair Bill Russel or Hakeem Olajuwon with Wemby already close. This is for overall defense Best on ball defender, Rodman or Draymond Green. These two lack the rim protection to join the above 3.

Basketball is the only sport where people act like modern athletes have improved at everything… Except being better than Michael Jordan. People who think Jordan is GOAT have a sickness.

No NBA champion has ever visited the White House during a Donald Trump presidency. • 2017 Warriors → Declined • 2018 Warriors → Declined • 2019 Raptors → Declined • 2020 Lakers → Declined For comparison: 2021 Bucks visited Biden 2022 Warriors visited Biden 2023 Nuggets declined) Will the New York Knicks go?

I want to like soccer, I really do. It’s the flops that I can’t get on board with. Soccer fans I know say that it is just “part of the game,” but that almost makes it worse. First fights are “part of the game” in hockey, and that is far less wimpy and infinitely more entertaining. Hockey just seems like it is what soccer wishes it could be. I am open to my mind being changed, though. Comments are open to anyone who wants to help me understand why this game is so popular worldwide.

@BrownsBama @defundlp @killianhoops @KyleMcCordMuse I’m not saying basketball players aren’t skilled. The guys at the top are extremely skilled. But the taller you are, the less technical skill you need to play. Soccer, baseball, & hockey all 3 require technical skill above athleticism.
