@ScottKacsmar When did I suggest he did?
I see you hold the false belief that KD outplayed Steph when nearly every advanced metric tells you that having Steph helped KD more than the alternative (on/off, % of possessions doubled 28-35% for Steph/15-20% for KD, blitz sent at Curry, etc.)
English
Simple math lesson:
LeBron and Curry each have 4 rings.
Curry is 3-1 in the Finals vs. LeBron despite getting outplayed each time personally.
But thanks to Kevin Durant winning Finals MVP 2x in 17-18, ring count is 4-4.
It could easily be 6-2 or 5-3 LeBron but KD interfered.
Scott Stevenson@ScottyWho69
@ScottKacsmar Wait Kevin Durant is the main reason Steph Curry won four rings when he was only there for two? I swear you Bots aren't even trying anymore

@joshua38682581 @geoffschwartz You’re doing this over a play in game not a series so get lost
English
@geoffschwartz Nothing rage bait about it. LeBron only did that in the very weak eastern conference
English
MJ missed 20 shots that game, the rest of his team missed 13 combined
Going 15-35 FG (42%) is only good in a watered down era

that’s what goats do . or do they just keep asking for yelp help with more hall of famers stars shooters etc ?

@BarrettH07 @JesseRogersESPN The strike zone is the strike zone I’m sorry and if you shrink it we’ll have the same fucking problem get over it where do you draw the line?!?
English
@JesseRogersESPN Just put a 1/2” square around the zone and deem it umpire discretion. That takes away 99% of the issues with ABS being +\- 1/2” accurate…
English
Players around the league give their early takes on ABS. Story here: espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…

@benlikessport @meattruckk Being called a clown is a personal attack?
English
@meattruckk Maybe on their own socials but personal attacks on sports shows are not it
English
It just blows my mind how the media is allowed to talk about players this way.
But then again, I don’t put much stock into basketball discourse when this guy left Stephen Curry off his top 10 guards of all time

Nick Wright just WENT OFF on Lamelo Ball and called him the biggest and most coddled clown he ever seen: "And I'm not sorry, and I don't care if this gets clipped. That young man is a clown, and has been a clown forever and will never not be a clown."
English
@thereaderhere @BiasedHouston Police officers don’t even talk that crazy to reckless drivers, who tf is nick wright ?
English
My biggest issue with the Nick Wright/LaMelo Ball situation, and situations similar to it, is that Nick Wright would NOT have that energy if LaMelo or any of the Ball family were present in that room.
The absence of fear of consequence makes everyone think they’re tough.

Things like this get said every year and then when it happens, the goal post changes to something else

Kendrick Perkins says LeBron James would officially become the GOAT over Michael Jordan if he defeats KD in the first round. “If a 41-year-old LeBron James in a head-to-head matchup with Kevin Durant, comes out and pulls of this victory, ... I don't want to hear a damn thing anymore about the GOAT conversation.” (Via @FirstTake )

@aaronpalmer @getnickwright @TheDunkCentral @ohnohedidnt24 John Stockton is a fraud and not a good guard did nothing to encourage winning chasing assists in his early career only when his assist totals went down and they started running a real offense did they even make it to the finals
English
@getnickwright @TheDunkCentral @ohnohedidnt24 You seriously don’t even have John Stockton on your LIST AT ALL?? Much less top 3? Dude has the all time records in assists and steals that will NEVER be broken and was an iron man for his entire career. And you don’t even have him in your top ten.
You are a clown. A CLOWN.

Nick Wright’s 10 best guards ever:
1. Michael Jordan
2. Magic Johnson
3. Kobe Bryant
4. Jerry West
5. Isiah Thomas
6. Oscar Robertson
7. Dwyane Wade
8. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
9. Chris Paul
10. Bob Cousy

Again, the fact all these talking heads think it's possible he can even do this tells you that every last one of them knows he's the best player ever. Cry to your dumbass mama if you can't deal with it

Jeff Teague says if LeBron James wins this series versus the Rockets will be the second most impressive thing he’s done in his career: “If LeBron beat them in a series with none of his players. Without Luka without Austin Reaves. At 40.” (Via @club520podcast)

It's an open question, I feel like. Consider this:
• 27 up, 27 down, perfect through 9
• Game is tied 0-0 and goes to the 10th
• (Ghost runner materializes)
• Ground out (runner to 3rd)
• Fly ball (runner scores)
9.2 IP, 0 ER, 0 H, 0 BB, 0 ROE
29 up, 29 down, but lose 1-0
Tom S@TomSwartz296286
@notgaetti The run ends the perfect game. The ghost runner is awful. Get rid of it.
English
@LukaDickMe @notgaetti @UMFL2002 You avoided the statement! It’s not his fault but that is a player making a mistake which causes a runner! No one made a mistake no one got a hit and no one was walked
English
English
@LukaDickMe @notgaetti @UMFL2002 Yet the pitcher did not give it up so??? No errors no hits no walks
English
English
@LukaDickMe @notgaetti @UMFL2002 Him being on second doesn’t raise his ops does it? So your point is invalid

Easily the funniest side effect of the ABS system is the number of people exposing themselves that they never knew how strike zones worked in the first place
Ryan M. Spaeder@theaceofspaeder
Okay, can we do 50/50 at least? If more than half the ball is in the zone, it is a strike, if not, it is a ball. Because this is dumb. Sorry if that hurts you.
English
@JKutz34 @BillSimmons But was the money coming in? And plus some of those team added are another league being absorbed into the nba so your point is mute
English
@BillSimmons NBA Expansion: 18 teams in just under 30 years
WNBA Expansion: 18 teams in just over 30 years
They're not deviating that much from the 7 decades of evidence
English
Staggeringly stupid and an unapologetic money-grab that will immediately make the league worse. You can’t just frantically add new teams like fast food franchises the moment you have a little success. We have 7 decades of evidence. Build slowly and smartly. This isn’t smart.

The WNBA and NBA Board of Governors have formally approved WNBA expansion teams in Cleveland, Detroit and Philadelphia. Cleveland will begin play in 2028, Detroit in 2029 and Philadelphia in 2030.
