Sending prayers and love to all those laid off today by ESPN. So many of you have poured your life into that company, & I know how you’re feeling right now.

My hope is as this door closes another opens for you all. God bless!

Le 16 juin 1996, Michael Jordan redevient champion NBA 🏆

Mais ce titre-là n’a rien d’un titre comme les autres.
C’est son premier depuis la mort de son père.
Et il tombe le jour de la fête des pères.

Dans le vestiaire, MJ s’effondre, submergé par l’émotion.

Une des images les plus fortes de sa carrière.

They were doing it to him all season… y’all created this “villain”. 🤪 Keep making him stronger.

Kobe on LeBron not shaking hands. "I think people make too much of it to be honest with you. It's a very competitive game and we're human just like everybody else."

@horsekarats @NBA_NewYork That’s an odd thing to say… is that how you speak to your Mommy?

@FrankMurcia8 @NBA_NewYork Hating? I never said I hated NY. I’m happy for them, congratulations to them and especially Brunson! He is the truth! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 All I stated was that his daddy babies him, it’s cute… protect him at all costs. 😊

[Hoops @Hoopss]

People are hating on this man…

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Gregg Popovich shares his final message and it has nothing to do with wins and losses.

"The wins and losses are all crap. The highs and lows are all crap. It's illusory. It doesn't really exist."

"What exists is seeing these guys and their kids. Those relationships with your assistant coaches - everybody else you're with - your colleagues, your friends."

"'Cause that's what you take with you as you move along."

The best leaders and coaches invest in people.

"All those wins or losses - they fade away. They fade away."

"But those relationships stick with you forever. And that's where the self-esteem and the self-satisfaction comes."

A must-listen message for all coaches, players, parents, and teach out there.

Great leadership isn't one style. It's knowing your people well enough to give them what they need. Invest in the relationships.

Care about people, hold them to their potential, and lead in your style.

can’t believe I’m forced to defend a fkn Spur but the narratives around Wemby rn are just flat out stupid. the truth should matter.

first, the run he just took the Spurs on was awesome.

35pt debut (franchise record), a 40/24 game. 3.5 stocks/gm. +21.6 on/off differential (hilarious)

led one of youngest teams ever to the Finals.

took down the defending champs.

led for 75% of the Finals & blew it - meaning more than anything they controlled their own destiny & capped themselves.

this narrative that he’s now a permanently scarred failure who’s legacy is cooked is hilarious.

22 yrs old. He, along w Castle & Harper, will only get better. They’ll absolutely be back.

Second & imo most important - in no world is Wemby a ‘dirty’ or immoral player. he had bad moments & lost composure, yeah. but if you think some shoves or elbows somehow makes him this unethical rotten thug of a player - *you* are soft (& delusional)

Nothing done by Wemby was anything different than moments we’ve seen from Jokic or Giannis. not even sniffing the depths of Draymond’s greatest hits.

the man is an 8ft 150lbs slinky being thrown around by earth’s greatest athletes. a body thrown at him every moment to counter his length (if you’ve played even JV level ball you’d understand).

Freedom of movement restricted. a man in your jock every step down the floor. that constant contact builds, frustration simmers, you go to make a basic play like set a screen, you flail, frustration pops, elbows thrown. it happens man it’s the nature of the sport. almost every Wemby flagrant was some run of the mill elbow or shove, called or not called - & fans act like he’s out there drop kicking knee caps or hammer fisting groins (wut). it’s a contact sport man tighten up.

I’d actually love for someone to clip together some Wemby footage showing how defenses are guarding him, the amount of contact he deals w on avg plays, how frequent & constant he’s fighting for position. at least give some context to what he’s battling against every time down the floor.

and last, his quotes & off court behavior. He’s a bit arrogant, likes to wax poetic & give genuine answers vs canned responses. I personally don’t mind it. I’ll take that vs chatgpt script responses all day. most of the stuff ppl crying about is heavily misquoted or out of context anyway. but what is it ppl want? we ask for confident, “real” Superstars & when we get it we cry that it’s all performative. listen to the full answer, stop letting the one sentence posted out of context in the caption form reality.

i’m gonna go throw up now for spending this much effort defending a Spur. but it had to be done. anyway you want to argue it, Wemby has been great for the league. he’s everything these ‘bring back the 90s’ advocates could dream for & if no one wants to defend him, I’ll take a minute to. what he just did these playoffs was genuinely incredible & he deserves the fair credit.

It hurts now, but be proud of how far these young guns got! They made San Antonio proud! Remember this pain, it will make the championships that more sweet!

Nobody but us believed we could be here. #PorVida  #TrustTheProcess
