Giannis Bourousis is still balling at 42, hitting a crazy buzzer-beater at the end of the first half in the National League 1 promotion finals. Bourousis played with a 39°C fever and still dropped 21 points in just 25 minutes🤯

If you remove Ruth Chepngetich, banned for doping, from the all-time list, Tesfay is a minute faster than any other woman in history and almost 3 mins ahead of #3.

My near 5yo son is 114cm (pretty average). We’ve been playing with a toy indoor hoop, he can touch the rim on tippy-toes. He loves me trying to block his shot, and Mutumbo vids. Trying to time a block is hard! Real basketball players are aliens.
@dan_routledge You have a situation now where EL with a straight face talks up European ‘sporting culture’ in opposition to NBA Europe, in the same season as Dubai got parachuted in. I think they do sort of mean it genuinely, but they’ve stripped away the culture, without enough entertainment
@BrownPhilip@dan_routledge@hcshaw13 Because in a perfect world, I kind of agree with Dan. But we don’t live in that world, so a “random” but completely unambiguous system is superior to the inconsistent and flawed execution of the “better” solution.
@BrownPhilip@dan_routledge@hcshaw13 The strength of the pro-jump-ball case would be significantly strengthened by each referee who could throw it genuinely straight up and also penalise touching the ball too soon
Re: SLB vs BBF/GBBL: For want of being simplistic, who is “right”? I know what it looks like but I’m so far removed these days, I’ve no way to know. DM in confidence if preferred. @BrownPhilip@dan_routledge@SamNeter
