With the @nyknicks winning the #NBAFinals, Mike Brown becomes the second coach in three calendar years to win a championship after being shown the door by the @SacramentoKings. That has to be a record. Brilliant, @Vivek

[Akis @Aykis16]

Congrats to the 2nd Mike @Vivek has fired and won a title

[Mack @karymack]

The Kings really fired a coach who won a championship the very next season with his new team.

This is Basketball Hell.

USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.

Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.

I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."

"They just come with the table, man."

They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.

This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.

I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.

"Did we…?"

"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."

Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.

My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."

Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.

I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.

Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.

I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.

Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.

Fake, performative Christian bs.
It’s 1 night. 1 hat. To show that people in the LGBTQIA+ community DESERVE TO EXIST. & these snowflakes make it about them. If it’s “just about God’s covenant,” why doesn’t he write it on every hat? Why not Mother’s Day, MDW or City Connects caps?

[🍓 Strawbarry Bonds 11:11 💫 @EvaLaMorte]

70 games in.

If your faith only becomes visible when other people are being celebrated, don't be surprised when people question your motives.

Anyways. Thanks for giving up 5 runs.

[Mack @karymack]

Shame on Democrats for caring more about people than football? That’s his take?

[Jackson Thompson @JackThompsonFOX]

Chicago Bears legend Brian Urlacher spoke out against Illinois Democrats for giving billions of dollars to illegal immigrants, while the Bears now plan to move to Indiana because Illinois failed to pass a tax relief and stadium incentive bill.

"They just don't care."

[Jay Lampert @MortChristenson]

Ok, who did this?

[Alex @ajak1033]

The Spurs know how to TAKE the lead, they just don't know how to HOLD the lead. And that's really the most important part of the lead: the holding

[Mack @karymack]

My guy De’Aaron Fox is getting killed. Maybe purgatory in Sacramento wasn’t so bad.

Certainly feels like they’re gonna try trading him at the very least.

[Tom Haberstroh @tomhaberstroh]

NEW @YahooSports:

The late turnover. The ill-advised layup. The baffling decision to leave OG.

The epic collapse confirmed a hard truth: the Spurs have a De'Aaron Fox problem. https://t.co/F4xyYfvarR

[Mack @karymack]

Lmao

[SleeperMLB @SleeperMLB]

In the last 30 days - the San Francisco Giants rank:

1st in Batting Average
1st in SLG
1st in OPS
1st in Hits

They went 11-17 during that stretch… 😬

[Mack @karymack]

So normalized at this point, but this is really shameful.

Elected officials, who know how these things actually work, giving credence to conspiracy theories.

Have some shame.

[Manu Raju @mkraju]

Speaker Johnson, like Trump, sowing doubts on CA results.

I asked him about any evidence to back up their claims

“Some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream it is impossible to prove,” he said. “But think everybody knows instinctively something is wrong here.”

[Mack @karymack]

Thank you for the red arrow. Very helpful.

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

New Rams DE Myles Garrett threw out the first pitch at Saturday night’s Dodgers’ game wearing a Kobe shirt.

[Mack @karymack]

Mike Brownnnnnnn

I thought it was kinda weird that the Knicks replaced Thibs with him, but man.

Insane fumble (again) from the Kings.

[Mack @karymack]

Just remembered this is Dante Pettis’ dad.

[SFGiants @SFGiants]

Congratulations to Gary Pettis on making his #SFGiants coaching debut!

We hope the hand isn't sore from all those home run trot high-fives 😮‍💨

[Mack @karymack]

I am more than fine with this pick, but it also feels like a pick that Vivek would love.

For the love of god, all I want is for Vivek Ranadive to have no say in who the team picks, signs, trades for, trades away going forward.

[James Ham @James_HamNBA]

From last night on @lockedonkings -- If Darius Acuff Jr. is the Kings' PRIME TARGET in the NBA Draft, how can they land him? https://t.co/nZoHnowB0Q

[Mack @karymack]

I do not understand why that 82-0 game is popular.

[Mack @karymack]

Somebody get this man some help.

[OurSF49ers @OurSf49ers]

Brandon Aiyuk just posted a video of him speeding on a racetrack on IG 💀

[Mack @karymack]

Aiyuk is giving major Antonio Brown vibes. Sad.

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

The Santa Clara County District Attorney’s office issued a warrant for the arrest of San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk on a misdemeanor charge of exhibition of speeding, @nwagoner confirmed.

People are so gutless man. Bass and Becerra.

Same as it ever was! We love the establishment!

UPDATE:

In the California governor’s race, with 45% of the vote in, Steve Hilton is leading with 26.55%, followed by Xavier Becerra at 25.87% and Tom Steyer at 19.67%.

In the Los Angeles mayor’s race, with 46% of the vote in, Karen Bass leads with 36.5%, followed by Spencer Pratt at 30.1% and Nithya Raman at 20.2%.

In the governor’s race, the top two candidates advance to the November general election regardless of party.

In the LA mayor’s race, if no candidate wins a majority, the top two advance to a November runoff.
