@CJMcCollum The day @CJMcCollum made my life.

Any other player in the league does this would be ejected. The fact this has now happened in back to back games and hasn’t been called for it is egregious.

[Legion Hoops @LegionHoops]

Free throws in the second half:

Spurs - 24
Knicks - 8

Yeah.

The biggest story in America is a president who has completely lost touch with reality. Who thinks the FBI let all the January 6 rioters into the Capitol, that he really won the 2020 election, that the Iran War is going well. Who, when occasionally confronted w reality, panics.

Apple TV, insane run for 2026.

🚨 This Is What Journalism Looks Like.

Kristen Welker asked for evidence.

Trump attacked the media.

She asked again.

🔥 We need more reporters willing to keep pressing when powerful people refuse to answer simple questions.

The press isn’t supposed to be popular with politicians.

It’s supposed to hold them accountable.

[Jake Tapper 🦅 @jaketapper]

That is some wild, unhinged stuff from the President.

Welker is a good person and honest journalist and didn’t deserve that but more importantly we have a president who constantly pushes conspiracy theories with zero evidence and can’t respond when politely challenged on that.

[NBACentral @TheDunkCentral]

The Knicks can’t be stopped

[DP @CAPTAINPEARLNYK]

This is the single greatest postgame interview after a WIN that I've seen and every youth player needs to watch.

Passion.
Accountability.
Humility.

Go Knicks

[Joey Helmer @joey_helmer]

Maybe Spur shouldn’t have celebrated like they won the NBA Title after defeating a banged up OKC.

[Kevin O'Connor @KevinOConnor]

Wemby wasn’t even touched on that last shot and still flopped to the floor. If that were SGA it’d dominate the conversation today 🤔

[Bill Simmons @BillSimmons]

This is incredible basketball from the Knicks — just a great watch. They’re not getting any calls and it hasn’t even mattered. I’m really impressed.

[Ivan Mora @moraivan]

Sooo close

Josh Hart's story to make the NBA is straight out of a movie 🍿

Back in his freshman year in high school, Hart and his family lost their home to a fire.

They lost everything.

Luckily, nobody from their family was harmed.

Hart also earned a scholarship to play for Sidwell Friends, a private school in D.C.

There was just one problem.

The school was too far from where their family was staying 😬

He accepted the offer and went through the long commutes just to get school.

Unfortunately, by the end of his sophomore year, the school's headmaster told him he wouldn't be welcomed back to school because of his poor grades.

Hart was ready to move to a different school.

But the relationships he built at Sidwell weren't.

Members of the school rallied around him.

They spammed the headmaster's email and started a Facebook group titled Let Josh Stay to give him another chance which he eventually got.

From there, Hart never looked back.

One of his teammates let him stay at his home and his mom helped tutor him to improve his grades 🙌

By the time he graduated high school, Hart was an eagle scout and the 82nd best player of his class.

At Villanova, Hart's enthusiasm and effort became contagious.

He won a national title in 2016 and even had his jersey retired six years later.

And now? He's doing the same thing for the Knicks.

Game 1 of the NBA Finals was the perfect Josh Hart game.

He scored just 3 points, shot 1-for-5 from the field.

Yet somehow still finished with game-highs in rebounds, assists, and steals.

More rebounds than 7'4" Victor Wembanyama.
More assists than De'Aaron Fox.
As many steals as the entire Spurs roster combined.

Josh Hart's built a career off grit and effort.

Because with everything he's been through, he knows exactly how quickly everything can be taken away.

Dude

How do 3 refs miss that

[The HEAT Realm @WadexFlash]

Miami Heat’s BIG 3 in just 4 years:

- 4 straight NBA Finals appearances
- 2 NBA Championships
- 224-88 RS record (71.8%)
- 59-28 playoff record
- 27 game winning-streak
- franchise record at 66-16
- hated by the entire league

Imagine if they had another 3-5 years…

[Andrew Schlecht @AndrewKSchlecht]

In the 2005 Playoffs Manu Ginobili had more FT made than FG made

Chauncey Billups did it 6 times in 03, 04, 06, 07, 08, 09

Dirk Nowitzki in '06

Jimmy Butler in 2020

James Harden '17, '15, '12

David Robinson in '99

Alonzo Mourning and Patrick Ewing in 00

Mutombo in 01

Tim Duncan in 02

Paul Pierce in 03

[𝐙 🏆 @homahoops]

They are literally playing like this right now and you're complaining

[OKC Thunder Stats @ThunderNumbers]

A quick look shows that this isn’t particularly rare. Using a minimum of 100 made free throws I see 25 other instances.

Includes Magic, LeBron, Chauncey (3x), Harden (4x), Dirk, Big O (2x), Barkley, Jimmy Butler.
