@globetrott59751 @Lakers4Life43 Or trust the goat to make a 3 foot shot

[Today's Tom Sawyer @certified_clear]

@WITNESSKJ He also has the most misses, turnovers, playoff losses, missed clutch shot etc. the lame longevity stats cut both ways.

@AbokwaraCHRIZ I was never a Chicago fan but it didn’t matter. That run was insane and Jordan transcended basketball. The only thing I’ve seen that’s come close is peak Tiger. Brady after that but he was more longevity with relentless drive.

@globetrott59751 @Lakers4Life43 23% through first 4 games. He was in a slump. Clanked his wide open three off the front of the rim. Didn’t even come close to making it. All because goat boy didn’t want to shoot from 3ft. Stupid.

@bfwalter How did he pay taxes?

@globetrott59751 @Lakers4Life43 Through the first four games of the 2020 Finals, Danny Green was 6-of-26 from three (23.1%).

[Today's Tom Sawyer @certified_clear]

@globetrott59751 @Lakers4Life43 Better to pass to a struggling (23%) 3-point shooter than to take a 2 without a perfect angle to the hoop. That's the goat?

@biggerlifegoals @Eazy23800000 @jordankobewade7 He’s a below NBA average shooter from beyond 3ft. He holds the NBA record for missed shots, turnovers, and playoff losses.

@biggerlifegoals @Eazy23800000 @jordankobewade7 Poor LeBron. With all of his basketball IQ, team-hopping, and roster-building, he just couldn't find a Pippen. It's just not fair. It's not like he didn't try. He averaged a new team every 5.8 years and a new coach every 2.3. Nobody was good or smart enough for him.

@biggerlifegoals @Eazy23800000 @jordankobewade7 Jordan: 30.1 PPG regular season, 33.4 PPG playoffs
Pippen: 16.1 PPG regular season, 17.5 PPG playoffs

@DineshDSouza The Dead Sea Scrolls included the Book of Enoch and other works that are considered non-historical literature.

[Today's Tom Sawyer @certified_clear]

He also has the most "clutch" misses in NBA history given his 3pt shooting percentage. Clutch 3s over the last three seasons (regular season + playoffs): 22-of-73 (30.1%). NBA Finals clutch 3s (same last-five-minutes, within-five definition): 7-of-26 (26.9%). Playing a million years and taking a ton of 3s doesn't mean you were good at them. LeBron is a below-NBA-average shooter from anything beyond 3ft. That includes free throws.

@DineshDSouza Bombshell... Politician set to campaign.

[Today's Tom Sawyer @certified_clear]

@Doelemite @thejbratc That's why neither Kobe nor LeBron is a goat.

@spookycargrrl @houseganghoop @naazyjoon 52% of voters are women. Take charge and fix everything.

@globetrott59751 @Lakers4Life43 The end of the restricted area line is even with the front of the backboard. He clearly isn't past that and, as a result, is not "under the backboard".

[Today's Tom Sawyer @certified_clear]

@globetrott59751 @Lakers4Life43 The green arrow goes to the basket. He clearly isn't under the backboard. Not sure where he is looking. I think the problem was that he was more than 3ft from the hoop. He is below league-average shooting % from beyond 3ft.
