Never thought anyone would ever actually be greater than MJ but here we are

VICTOR WEMBANYAMA TONIGHT:

40 POINTS
15 REBOUNDS
3 BLOCKS
77.4% TS%

THE LEAGUE IS REALLY IN TROUBLE

[Intro to NBA @IntroToNBA]

@SBGDub @TezzTalks Pretty sure they averaged about the same number of shot attempts….what are we doing? Expecting 6’6 200 lb to be more efficient than 7’2 300 lb ?

Wemby on receiving backlash for crying on the court:

“Personally, I refuse to carry the burden of hiding my emotions.”

(via @MaximeAubin1)

[NBACentral @TheDunkCentral]

Jayson Tatum just tied Russell Westbrook in all-time playoff scoring.

He now has more career playoff points than James Worthy, Chris Paul, Klay Thompson, Reggie Miller, Clyde Drexler, Charles Barkley, Ray Allen, Isiah Thomas, Kevin Garnett, Allen Iverson, Jason Kidd, and Gary Payton.

Already a Hall of Famer at age 28

[Love The 🏀range @LoveTheOrange1]

So ring culture is a problem but winning a few first round games is goat shit?

[🦅 @NeverBeenStunna]

This not a hate tweet but actin like this series against the Rockets supposed to sway who people view as the greatest basketball player ever is hilarious

[Damien Peters @DamienPetersNBA]

I still dont know if Rudy Gobert will eventually make the Hall of Fame, but he should. The fake narratives about his career are lazy. He’s one of the greatest defenders ever. Period. We are allowed to give him his flowers too.

[Damien Peters @DamienPetersNBA]

You can double Kevin Durant. You can’t double LeBron James. Ultimately those subtle differences in greatness have defined their careers.

[StatMuse @statmuse]
