Deep interest in the details. I will take that for data, if you concede oral history and narrative are data. Likes are respect, not agreement. #AllLove Namaste.

The difference in coverage between @NBCSports covering golf and @GolfonCBS is like a Volkswagen Beetle and a BMW. One put-puts along and backfires periodically, the other runs smooth and clean.
#USGA and #NBC messing up a great event.

@Three_Cone Steve Francis career arc seems likely: million dollar game paired with a ten cent brain.

USGA Fraidy cats ruining the US Open. Watering down the greens like this was a muni! Booooooo! #USGA

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

Wow— all four World Cup games yesterday finished in draw! Pretty sweet. Sign me up for that action… 🤣🤣

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

Strong disagree that this Garden crowd is going to be truly unbelievable… #MSG The ticket prices exclude the real fans. This is going to be more like a hype Super Bowl crowd. #KnicksFans #KnicksSpurs @BillSimmons am I right?

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

You about done with the rookie playing defense on Brunson, Coach Johnson—or would you like some more of that? #Spurs Carter-Bryant #Knicks

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

Hey @ZachLowe_NBA I think the Steph Castle comparison is early career Ron Harper, Sr. Physically dominating, a great driver and great defender, but streaky shooter. #Spurs

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

When your excuse is you are missing a 93 game, G-Leaguer — #OKC you are not and never will be dynasty.

[Caitlin Cooper @C2_Cooper]

Since Wemby was drafted, there are 20 players who have defended him for at least 100 half-court matchups. The player who he has tallied the fewest player points per 100 matchups against as his primary assignment is ... O.G. Anunoby.

We saw once again last night, depth is a regular season strategy in the Association. #NBAPlayoffs #OKC

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

@DontizzleJones @NekiasNBA Had to look at that for a minute… Spot on!

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

If you’re drafting from the NY #Knicks and the #OKC Thunder rosters today for a 1 game championship of the World vs the aliens tomorrow… Okay maybe SGA is the 1st pick. But when’s the next OKC guy picked? 6th? After Brunson, KAT, OG for sure. And Bridges?

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

I am shocked that 93 game veteran Ajay Mitchell didn’t play better in the biggest game he has ever played. #OKC #Spurs #NBAPlayoffs

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

@MikeVorkunov This guy is moving this team to Seattle in +/- 5 years… NBA should’ve never let in this used car salesman who couldn’t actually afford the team. How are you gonna sign for Free agents if you can’t afford a hotel rooms?

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

Why are the New York Mets wearing the Colorado Rockies uniforms??? #MLB

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

Remember if Thibs is coaching, Landry Shamet, Jordan Clarkson, and Jose Alvarado never see the floor. And the Knicks would be trying to win these first two series with the starters only. And their own coach killing their legs… #Knicks #NBAPlayoffs

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

1000% agree @BillSimmons nothing will be more fun than “Inside the NBA” being in fuck-it mode and playing @espn Can you handle it? #InsideTheNBA #ESPN

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

Windy, KAT is so much better than Draymond Green. Please! #EmbarrassingTakes #NBAPlayoffs

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

Over and over and over. Nobody sounds more desperate to have his employees agree with him than Simmons.

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

Poor @ZachLowe_NBA — Bill Simmons is so all over the place, that Zach basically has to act as a fact checker. Simmons will start out a sentence, “We” make an outlandish claim, and then Zach has to say, “Well actually…”

[Aaron Mandel @NBAWonk]

Did Celtics fans enjoy Back Row Joe’s explanation of why he started a starting five that had never played together before? Real coherent, Coach. #Overrated The half life on this guy is under 2 years in this job.
