what an enduring legacy 💙

We were treated to two excellent NBA playoff games and a bunch of excellent NHL playoff games tonight.

Good night to be a sportsball fan.

This is what Adam Silver wants, btw.

He wants teams like the Jazz + Hornets to have a real chance to grow into something.

(Of course, the anti-tanking reforms he's about to implement will only make that more difficult moving forward, but...)

No, but really

Can we just replace the rest of Celtics-Sixers with another seven-game Wolves-Nuggets series?

I'll even settle for Knicks-Hawks.

Our Hawks???

It’s a good thing the Flyers rock rn because the Phillies are buns

Dear NBA,

I KNOW it is all about the money and you don’t care about our convenience, but this having to use 3 different streaming services to watch playoff games each night is, (and I say this with all the love I can for the game,) complete horseshit.

If Wemby stays healthy, the NBA is gonna name the DPOY award after him one day.

It’s his every season as long as he plays 65+ games.

I asked AI who the 49ers should draft in the 1at round and one of the 4 players it suggested is a projected 4th round pick

They don't call him the GOATmentator for nothing, folks.

Who else can so casually slip in a "jawn" into an NBA highlights package?

Gonna write about that for Wednesday if/when they get annihilated tomorrow.

(A lot depends on who stays in the draft/who goes back to school. NIL is doing not-great things to the depth of draft classes lately!)

So the Sixers give the No. 17 pick to OKC but get the No. 22 pick from Houston. And all it cost them was a Jared McCain salary dump! (And trading Sleeper Agent Al Horford, who would go on to help the Celtics win a title soon thereafter.)

That last sentence says a lot but not what they think it does.

Does Claude know which draft prospects are least affected by electrical substations?

Intense again Brilliant competitors in their element over the playoffs' first weekend

"You know what I didn’t see? Hero ball (except from the Sixers). Instead there was lots of ball movement, lots of player movement, lots of pace, not just in the full court, in the half court, lots of Indiana Pacers/OKC Thunder style."

Pain.

Sixers Get Positive Joel Embiid Injury Update Ahead of Game 2 vs. Celtics Embiid won't be back for Game 2, but he's ramping up after his late-season appendectomy.

While Joel Embiid's status for Game 2 has yet to be revealed, the #Sixers announced a positive update on the seven-time All-Star.

Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars.

There's just gotta be a line somewhere.

Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.

*whispers*

I don't think Embiid changes what happened yesterday, especially rusty Embiid

I love everything about this.

Also, this news dropping on 4/20 is going to put Elon on megatilt, which is an added benefit

Weeks should start like this more often imho

Great read, Ben!

The Block, As Remembered By The Guy Who Called It And The Guy Who Let It Be | Defector Monty McCutchen remembers the play unfolding in front of him. With just under two minutes left in Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals, the game tied at 89, Golden State’s Andre Iguodala grabbed a rebound an...

The Block turns 10 years old later this spring.

For my debut contribution @defector.com, I spoke to the guy who called it (Mike Breen) and the guy who let it happen (Monty McCutchen) to reflect on one of the NBA's flashbulb moments: defector.com/the-block-as...

I'm brainwashing my sons into becoming Eagles fans.

I will not do the same for the Sixers.
