We all agree Wemby is gonna be the GOAT defender but do we all understand that this is the dude he’ll be passing?

[Basketball University @UofBasketball]

Even if KP doesn’t play another minute with the Warriors, he got us another classic Steph/Dray moment.

Huge win of a trade.

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

Random thought for the day, looking at this roster now…

Was this one of the absolute greatest teams ever?

[NBA @NBA]

The @celtics are the 2023-24 NBA Champions!

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

Anyone belittling this performance doesn't know hoop.

Bam was more unstoppable last night than any player I've ever seen in a game. His free-throw record was set because fouling was the only way to stop him from finishing at the rim on every possession.

[NBA @NBA]

83 POINTS FOR BAM ADEBAYO.

THE SECOND-MOST EVER.

Wilt: 100
Bam: 83
Kobe: 81

@HPbasketball Aren’t casuals the ones who wrongly think thay more difficult and complex scoring methods are somehow better than scoring more easily and efficiently?

(Not saying anything about Shai who is amazing and hyper efficient, I just think this is the wrong critique of casuals)

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

It feels really good to have the No. 1 pick in a fantasy draft, break consensus, and have the player you took win you your league in the final game of championship week.

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

Too bad not a single person with Derrick Henry on their team made a championship game 🥹

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

If you know me you know I’m as big a Steph fan as there is but we were all were so stoked on this year’s team to start the season.

It’s not necessarily a failure of ownership/FO/coaching that the team isn’t as good as we all thought it was.

[warriorsworld @warriorsworld]

Owner
Front Office
Coach
Roster

All letting down 30.

What a Joke.

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

I see arguments both ways, but that being said it’s Giannis

[NBA Dracos 🐉🏀 @NBADracos]

When it's all said and done who do you think will retire as the better player?

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

Most damning piece of evidence that Steph was better: constant double teams

Most damning piece of evidence that KD was better: a Quinn Cook quote

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

Yeah if a Quinn Cook quote is the most damning piece of evidence, that also tells me everything I need to know

[ᵂᴵᴸᴸ @BiasedHouston]

The most damning piece of evidence about who was better on them Warriors teams between KD & Steph was when Quinn Cook said KD tried his hardest to get Steph Finals MVP in 2018 and it didn’t work.

Told me everything I needed to know.

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

Two months of over-preparing for my draft only to be immediately memed 😭

[NFL Memes @NFLMemes]

If you're having a bad day just remember there's someone out there that started AJ Brown and Xavier Worthy in fantasy this week

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

A piece of copy is like wired headphones.

Left to its own devices, it will tangle.

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

My initial take on the Mike Brown hiring:

Knicks are the favorites to come out of the East.

They have the best and healthiest roster by a considerable margin, and they just made a coaching upgrade.

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

Steph
Dray
Klay
Andre

That 5th spot might belong to Loon in terms of indelible players from this run.

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Free agent center Kevon Looney has agreed to a two-year, $16 million deal with the New Orleans Pelicans, sources tell ESPN. Life Sports Agency CEO Todd Ramasar and the Pelicans reached a deal tonight for the three-time NBA champion who departs Golden State after 10 years.

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

If we’re gonna DQ 2016 Steph because he didn’t win a chip, fine…

But then where is 2015 Steph? (who was worse than 2016 Steph, but I’m not the one DQing him)

[Josh Eberley 🇨🇦 @JoshEberley]

Not having 2015-16 Steph Curry anywhere on the list is madness.

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

@PeterVecsey1 @curtisalvin How could Riley be GM for the 2012 draft but Myers be the one that nearly traded Curry to the Bucks? The Bucks trade was before the 2012 draft…

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

NYC weather giving a premonition for tonight?

🌩️

[Simon Cherin-Gordon @Simoncgo]

People in the comments are explaining why, and trust me I get why (better competition, Russ’ flaws, injuries, etc.), but this is still 10000% true.

It felt like the start of a dynasty.

[Josh Eberley 🇨🇦 @JoshEberley]

SGA and J Dub doing what these guys couldn’t is genuinely hard for me to wrap my head around.
