This is the best basketball player ever.
Kobe Bryant sends the Lakers to their third straight NBA Finals with an insane display of shot making to closeout the Suns. Opposing fans, players and even coaches in disbelief.
On this day in 2023, LeBron James ended the Warriors dynasty:
30 PTS
9 REB
9 AST
2 STL
1 BLK
80% TS
Eliminated Steph and the Warriors in the Western Conference Semi Finals.
Jeanie Buss on Luka Doncic:
“I have a soft spot in my heart for him because the last time I saw Kobe alive was about a month before he passed away at the Lakers-Dallas game with Gigi, because Luka Doncic was Gigi's favorite player. I know that Kobe would be excited that he's now a Laker and will continue to lead this franchise into the foreseeable future.”

A dentist explains why miswak is still one of the best natural tools for oral care.
The Messenger of Allah PBUH said: “Had I not feared hardship for my ummah, I would have ordered them to use the miswak for every wudu.”
— Sunan an-Nasa’i, Hadith 7
Kobe Bryant only attempted 11 free throws the entire 2008 WCF against the Spurs 🤯 There was no mismatch hunting, no foul baiting, no stat padding, no over dribbling and no easy layups. Pure buckets.
Truth.
Kobe was one of the only players I circled on my calendar and started preparing for a few nights before we played. Getting my rest right, extra body work, extra film, watching every calorie I consumed.
You needed to be at 100% to go against him because he was always going to bring 100%.

P. gingivalis was found in 90.9% of heart attack patients — the SAME bacteria destroying your gums is living in your ARTERIES.
Your gums BLEED when you brush. Your breath won’t FIX. Your dentist calls it “just gingivitis.”
And at some point you stopped worrying about it. You just accepted bad gums now.
P. gingivalis enters your bloodstream through bleeding gums. Embeds in arterial walls. Accelerates plaque. Causes heart ATTACKS.
→ 90.9% of heart attack patients: POSITIVE
→ Heart attack risk: 1.9x HIGHER
→ Found in 26% of arterial plaques DIRECTLY

Mouthwash? Kills bacteria for 30 minutes. BACK by lunch.
P. gingivalis → blood → arteries → inflammation → plaque → cardiac EVENT
Week 2-3: Bleeding STOPPING
Week 4-6: Inflammation FADING
Week 6-8: Bacteria DROPPING
My gums bled every brush for 1 year. Mouthwash did nothing. Mastic gum 1g daily. Week 3 I spit clear instead of PINK. Week 6 healthier gums than since my teens. Not a cure-all — but enough to know something SHIFTED.
Your gum disease isn’t a dental problem.
It’s a cardiovascular risk hiding in your MOUTH.

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.
