Kobe Bryant never won a single Playoff series without Shaq or Pau. The Lakers lost the ‘04 Finals 4-1 to Detroit. Shaq was 53/84 (63.1%) Kobe was 43/113 (38.1%)

Christian Eriksen collapsed on the field during Denmark's friendly against Ukraine.

The national team says Eriksen is doing well and walked off the field himself, and will be taken to a hospital for further examinations.

The match was called off.

Remember this trash propaganda from the NY Post claiming 2 million New Yorkers would leave if Mamdani gets elected?
Welp—we're on month 6. Mamdani's approval has gone from +38 upon inauguration to +48 today, robberies are down 11%, retail theft is down 19%, murders are down 21%—AND NO ONE HAS LEFT NYC.
A reminder that when billionaires claim "they'll leave if they have to pay their fair share of taxes," they're lying, because they're liars, and all they know how to do is lie, because truth and facts end their corruption.

Game 4 of the Finals in NY with the Knicks up 2-1, trying to avoid heading back to San Antonio with the series tied, is going to be absolutely electric.

iPhone in the morning: I couldn't do it, bro. Just didn't feel right. The vibe was off.

I don’t know if any coach has had as eventful a career as Mike Brown.

He coached early LeBron and late Kobe. He filled in for Kerr on the greatest team of all time, the 2017 Warriors. He ended the Kings playoff drought, and now, he’s two wins away from ending the Knicks drought.

Spurs +390 to come back and win this…

Any takers?

Went to a motocross race today.

Anyone recognize any of the people behind me?

[Phil Mars @PhilMarsSports]

@AvroMock @UofBasketball They definitely are good. But me saying they’re playing over their heads lately, and you responding that they’ve been very successful lately is… an odd rebuttal.

But yes… perhaps they’re better than my priors said they were. Definitely possible.

Quite the hockey game on ABC right now…

Consent being manufactured for us to eventually intervene in Mexico because the USA hates successful leftist regimes.

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

Claudia Sheinbaum has approval ratings of between 70 and 80%, thanks to her progressive policies which have lifted over 8 million people out of poverty.

So of course the @NYTimes finds some reason to attack her.

They hate her because she shows what can be done.

[Phil Mars @PhilMarsSports]

@AvroMock @UofBasketball It seems like the Knicks have been playing a bit over their head lately, but they’ve also been damn good in addition to a little lucky. Deserving of their success. Enjoy it, man! 🍻

[Phil Mars @PhilMarsSports]

@AvroMock @UofBasketball Yeah. I thought Spurs had a friendly whistle in Game Two. I think some Knicks fans got a little carried away with how unfair they claimed the whistle was, but it did look Spurs-friendly.

What’s your prediction rest of series?

[Phil Mars @PhilMarsSports]

@AvroMock @UofBasketball I mean… the Spurs had the ball with :09 left in a tie game.

It’s not like it was an ass-kicking. But a win is a win and a loss is a loss.

[Jay Croucher @croucherJD]

Will never understand why the Spurs wouldn’t just involve Brunson in a defensive action on every possession, like the Knicks hunted Harden.

He’s the only point of failure on the Knicks D. Spurs have consistently gone at him for one stretch all series and it produced a 14-0 run.

[Phil Mars @PhilMarsSports]

@TheLandryShift Wiggins is a loser though. Low hoops IQ. Inconsistent effort. In the middle of the Warriors playoff run, he started rebounding more, and said he didn’t realize he could grab rebounds if he tried hard. Dawg, c’mon.

[Phil Mars @PhilMarsSports]

@tiltemsol @AMAZlNGNATURE Yes. Lol. That is what “inhabited” means.

(You are probably thinking of the word “uninhabited,” to react this way.)
