@tylerbritton_ I think it’s fair to argue Brown was better in games 1-3 overall. “By far” is a box-score take in my opinion. Tatum’s game 2 in particular is underrated. Bad efficiency, but his playmaking and general aggressiveness unlocked Jrue’s big scoring night, which won the game.

@StoolGreenie Derrick White led the entire postseason in Win Shares (ahead of even Luka) with the 5th most blocks of any player (as a guard), and people still can’t grasp that he’s a star.

In light of the Florida Panthers winning their first championship last week, I wrote about the remaining “title-less” franchises, and who is best positioned to win this decade:

I wrote about the NBA Playoffs, and how Kendrick Lamar predicted them beat for beat during his beef with Drake. If you like hoops and aren’t too bitter about the Celtics hanging another banner, or Drake taking another L in a rap battle, give it a read!

@HPbasketball The general problem with this discourse is trying to compare this singular 2024 Celtics season with dynastic teams that already completed their full arcs. Until we see how the rest of their story is written, none of us know what they “might” or “might not” accomplish.

My captain went out of his way to chest bump the GOAT 2.0 as a rook. Remains one of the wildest moves I’ve ever seen on a basketball court 😂

When a 20-year-old rookie Tatum dunked on Bron and flexed on him during Game 7 of the ECF 😤

@BenjaminSolak No love for the ‘80-‘83 Islanders?

@HPbasketball Didn’t play well in a legacy game, so for better or worse it’s going to stick with him until he comes through. Another reminder of how thin the margins can be for a player’s narrative. If Zay doesn’t fumble, maybe they come back and win and Lamar’s a hero.

We’ll never know..

In honor of the countless hours we’ll be spending on the couch this college football season, my friend @jni123 and I are doing a little competition. Give us a quick scan if you like sports stuff and want a preview of the upcoming season!

The best four day stretch of the year! Drafted eight teams each for the tourney with @SlimDavey3. If we didn't pick the champ we're giving someone random $500 lol.

I don’t think I will ever forgive Ian Kinsler for the night he’s had tonight.
