A moment of sincere LeBron reflection: there's been so many ups and downs over his time with the Lakers, and who knows if this is his last run with the team, but if it is, it's been one of the coolest things I've seen.
Comes back from injury, finds himself navigating being a third option for the first time, does it incredibly well, and then in one fateful game once again becomes the #1 option, leader, and steadying force and is leading an underdog Lakers team to a 2-0 series lead. What a player, what a legend. This series could end 2-4 and it won't change how I feel about it, this has been an incredible joy to watch

I asked my producers not to make any clips from the dad grief portion but enough people reached out about this part I changed my mind.
Jim Nantz on what Arnold Palmer told him about his dad is one of the most impactful things I’ve ever heard. A lot of people need to hear this.
I mean I know the money’s great and the prestige of being a major league baseball player is unmatched - but if I’m Denzel Clarke I walk off the field and never return again. What a gdamn grab!
Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday in Tombstone was Oscar-worthy. Kilmer fully-committed in every way, down to his weight loss. I can’t picture anyone else as Doc Holliday.
This Joe Ingles story 🥹
Joe's wife, Renae, and their 3 kids are in town. Last week, their son Jacob, who is autistic, made it through his first ever NBA game in-arena. But Joe didn't play...
Tonight, Chris Finch started Ingles to make sure Jacob could see his dad play 🫶
This week was a wildly extreme example of a trend I'm obsessed with in sports media.
I have consumed, conservatively, 10 hours of NBA podcast gossip this week (80% Luka analysis/conspiracies). Meanwhile, I genuinely don't think I've watched ten consecutive minutes of NBA on TV since the Finals.
On the other hand, I have consumed maybe 15 mins of Super Bowl media content this week (rare case, to be clear; I subscribe to 4 or 5 NFL pods I adore, but my appetite for Luka gossip, plus the rematch nature of the KC-Philly SB, temporarily squeezed them out). Meanwhile, I'll watch every minute of the Super Bowl from the national anthem to the confetti drop.
Quincy Olivari got emotional after meeting Steph Curry:
"I liked him since I was in 6th grade... that's my favorite player ever... the first thing he told me was 'I'm a big fan of your game'... I had his jersey, he signed it twice. I used to sleep under that jersey."
