This is what a generational talent looks like.
Giannis says he showed up EARLY to work out with Kobe, and the Black Mamba made him pay for it
“Working out with Kobe, I showed up before him. I love that I did it, but it was a mistake”
“Kobe came and said, ‘What are we gonna do?’ I said, ‘Whatever you tell me to do.’ He said, ‘Go right, make 25.’ I usually make four or five. I said, ‘Yeah… make 25.’ I made 25. ‘Okay, go left, 25.’ Then, ‘Go right, two dribbles’”
“We worked out for two hours, intense, and I’m thinking, I shouldn’t have shot before this, I’m tired, I wanted to show him my best version”
“But here’s what players won’t do today: they won’t be vulnerable. They won’t show weakness, or show appreciation to somebody better. If you always think you’re the best, you can never learn”
“I had my notebook, I asked a lot of questions, he answered every single one, and never made me feel like we were running out of time. It was one of the best experience in my career”
No, THANK YOU! Truly a honor to wear the 💜💛 while trying to continuing the greatness & legacies that came before me! Hope I made a few proud during my stint. 🙏🏾🫡👑
Now this is utterly ridiculous. I have no doubt that @BobbyMarks42 was told what he said he was told (He’s incredible at what he does) — but there is no way in hell @FCHWPO is the 7th-best player on any team in the NBA. He may be the best 2-way player in the league. Yes, it’s me saying this. Folks be on some b.s. Stop It!
Golden State's Al Horford is declining his player option and intends to sign a new two-year, $14 million deal to stay with the Warriors, sources tell me and @anthonyVslater. Horford, 40, becomes only the 13th player in NBA history to reach 20 seasons.

ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky’s son Madden who has autism broke into “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” while his dad watched on with tears in his eyes.
The moment was to honor Autism Awareness Day.
One of the best videos ever, @danorlovsky7 ❤️🙌
Sean Sweeney, in his introductory press conference as the new Orlando Magic Head Coach, talks about Coach Pop:
“Coach Pop's office was right next to mine. And I was very fortunate when you're next to a guy who's the Greatest Coach Of All Time daily.
The fact that he even said hello and knew my name meant something to me..
He built that program and guys like me are fortunate to be part of it. Very grateful, and that's part of the reason why I'm here now.”

Tiago Splitter, in his introductory press conference as the new Chicago Bulls Head Coach, talks about Coach Pop:
“He’s probably the greatest, or one of the greatest coach ever. I have a lot of respect to him.
I feel like everybody that played for him was like a grandson. That’s the type of love you felt when you played for him.”

I think I speak for a lot of people when I say this.
For years, Sunday nights meant Top Gear. We’d sit down at 8pm and watch Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May do what they did best.
Now, through Clarkson’s Farm, Jeremy has introduced a whole new generation to the realities of British farming and earned the respect of millions all over again.
He’s made us laugh, he’s frustrated us, and he’s entertained us for decades.
Get well soon, Jezza.
The country is rooting for you. ❤️🇬🇧🙏
