@dijoni Booooooooo!!!

@cedricshine Somehow there are more analysts and pundits saying they liked that, or like that he's an A-hole, than there were people saying they liked Ant's sportsmanship. Not shaking hands was a whole issue in The Last Dance for almost an entire episode but now it's no big deal?

Possibly one of the best edits I’ve ever seen.

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

@bballbreakdown Not at all. He just threw a flagrant forearm. So it was getting overturned anyway, but real ethical ballers would consider that a makeup call for when Wemby lost it out of bounds by himself and they called it off NY

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

Only the delusional would EXPECT the league to take action. They have shown no willingness to do so

It will be interesting to see if NBA’s standard game review addresses what Victor Wembanyama did here when moving towards OG Anunoby:

Who knew even alien can CHOKE

[Daig Muse⚡️ @DaigMuse]

Here’s Wemby missing 2 free throws that might have cost the Spurs the NBA title.

I will NOT let the Adam Silver scrub this clip from the internet💀💀💀

BIGGEST CHOKE JOB IN NBA FINALS HISTORY

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

I posted this at the start of the half in faith. My God is good and I will always believe

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

With the horrible calls, amazing shooting from Spurs, terrible play from us, it's gonna make it pur win so crushing to the Spurs

Like I said....

Again, what you are seeing now is the DIRECT RESULT of how the REFS have created an environment that encourages violent engagement on both sides of the ball. And the Knicks get the worse end of it cause they're reacting out of frustration

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

What did I say??

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

And we start the game with some BS. I'm expecting them to overturn it and protect Wemby. We should keep attacking though

In 1879, JP Morgan paid a man to invent the lie that is the foundation of modern economics.

A billionaire who helped start Amazon just exposed the whole thing on Diary of a CEO, and once you hear it you will never look at paychecks the same way again:

146 years ago, a guy named Henry George wrote a book called Progress and Poverty.

It was the first mainstream book about the rich systematically stealing from the poor, and It literally became the bestselling book in the history of the United States at the time.

The working class was reading it everywhere, and the people at the top of the economy completely lost their minds.

So JP Morgan personally brought a man named John Bates Clark to Columbia University, which was essentially the intellectual headquarters of Wall Street, and told him to fix the problem.

Clark wrote a book called The Distribution of Wealth. In it, he invented something called the "theory of marginal productivity," which claims that because markets are perfectly efficient, the amount of money you earn reflects EXACTLY the value you contribute to the economy.

If you make $15,000 a year, that's because you're providing $15,000 of value. If a hedge fund manager makes $500 million a year moving money around, that's an accurate reflection of the value he creates in the world.

And Clark literally said the quiet part out loud IN HIS OWN BOOK.

He wrote that they had to prove to working people that no matter how much they make, whether it's a little or a lot, it accurately reflects their value, because if workers ever concluded that their labor was worth more than they were being paid, they would revolt and destroy the entire system.

That was the whole point. The theory was built to prevent a revolution.

And it worked so well that it got absorbed into mainstream economics and is STILL taught as a foundational principle to this day.

Every time a CEO tells you "the market decides your salary," they're repeating a framework that was literally commissioned by JP Morgan in the 1800s to convince you not to ask for more.

Nick Hanauer, the billionaire who told this story, also shared the numbers that prove why it matters right now:

The median full-time worker in America earns about $60,000 a year. If that same worker had maintained the same share of GDP they held in 1975, they wouldn't be making $60,000. They'd be making $120,000. That gap goes all the way up to the 90th percentile. If you earn $180,000 today, you'd be earning $250,000 under the old distribution.

The ONLY people who benefited from 50 years of economic growth were the top 10%, and the vast majority of that went to the top 1%. That is trillions of dollars every single year that used to be wages for ordinary working people and now sits in the accounts of the wealthiest people on the planet.

This happened because of policy. Tax cuts for the rich, deregulation for the powerful, and wage suppression for everyone else, all justified by an economic theory that was invented specifically to make you believe you deserve exactly what you're getting.

And the craziest part is that GDP growth rates in America were 4 to 4.5% for decades when workers were included in prosperity. As soon as the neoliberals took over in the mid-1970s and implemented these policies, GDP growth fell to 3% and eventually to 2%.

Including people in the economy doesn't slow growth down. It's literally the thing that CREATES growth. And the theory that convinced the world otherwise was a hit job paid for by one of the richest men in history to keep workers quiet.

What do you think?

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

So its not a violation to put 6 men on the floor while the game is in action???

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

Wemby hooking KAT, Kat reaches back hooks him then releases and of course the refs are gonna ignore Wemby's hook and call against the Knicks

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

When this year is over can we finally address the myth of "playoff basketball" because it makes no sense that the league turns into prison ball in the post season

[Rodney Loveday @Sirloveday]

But thats not impeding a landing for the shooter????

Castle flopped on that rebound almost falling into Harts legs and it cost them a basket
