Been thinking about this. It's not about hoops, but it is about a hooper.

Give Wemby and his marketing team major credit.

For three or four years now he's been saying yes. Access. Interviews. Riding the subway. Playing chess. Living with monks. Voiced geopolitical takes. Stunt-y or not, doesn't matter.

I think reporters have been starved of actual access from NBA stars for a long time. From LeBron to Jokic, you only got the few crumbs that the player and his sneaker brand and his agency wanted you to have. Then, journalists (and talkshow hosts) would have to make a meal out of crumbs. (Crumbs that often came with strings attached.)

Wemby's kind've bucked that trend. So now that he's got the biggest stage of his career, those same access-starved reporters (who also, fwiw, tend to align with his politics and disposition) have got stories, angles, and the "superhero" they've craved to cover.

Whether Wemby's genuinely that guy or just plays one really well, I don't know. But from a media and marketing standpoint, he and his team ran their long play about as well as we've seen it run in a long time.

Salute.

Rookie Tatum going to 7 with prime Bron when his point guard genuinely had Cavs ML should get him in the hall of fame alone

Wanting an MLB salary cap is the most bootlicker shit of all time.

[N. Face @FacetheFacts15]

I will say I’m not a fan of tattoos. Just the way I was raised and how I am. I find it more than coincidental that Roman Anthony is now tattooed up as an MLB player. I wonder why that is? Is there a person who influence him. IMHO, that is Jarren Duran who I think is a terrible leader and influence of this team!

Don’t hate me for the take, but if Roman has all the time in the world to get inked up with needles, why exactly can’t he play baseball again? I thought he had a bad pain tolerance. Hmmmmmm.

Tyler Kolek hits a three in ECF clincher - might be 1st RI native to head to #NBAFinals as a player since Joe Hassett in ‘79.

The Knicks will lose the finals in 4 or 5 games. Guaranteed.

[BGN Hoops @BGNHoops]

Knicks path to the finals:

1st round: CJ McCollum led Hawks team
ECSF: Sixers with Embiid not even 100%
ECF: historically bad Cavs defensive team that quit on themselves

They benefited greatly from being in the weaker Eastern conference.

[Ty Lawson @TyLawson3]
