KAT is basically trying to process grief over his mom’s death by playing the best basketball of his life in these finals and I could not be rooting for him harder.
“Michael didn’t beat us. Rodman did”. Please don’t let these 24 year olds rewrite history like Worm to CHI wasn’t a monumental pick up. First Team All Defense and rebounding champ when CHI got him. SA just let him go bc they were sick of his shit.
Rodman mentioned in his biography that his refusal to guard Dream (bc he was tired of not being appreciated/respected while still always being asked to bail that defense out) at the request of Robinson and the coaches in that 95 SA-HOU series where Dream cooked Robinson and sent SA home was when SA finally washed their hands of him.
In an era where the final scores of playoff games were 88-83, a player who was singlehandedly manufacturing 17 possessions for his team with his rebounding was incredibly valuable. Don’t let them rewrite history.
Charles Barkley on Jalen Brunson: “If he’s able to deliver a championship to New York, it’ll be the greatest free agent signing in NBA history.” (via @ESPNNBA)
Russell Wilson finished his career with 46,966 passing yards and 5,568 rushing yards.
To put that in perspective, no other player in NFL history has reached both 35,000 passing yards and 4,000 rushing yards.
