fun fact not many people know: lebron james is 41 years old. i know i was surprised too

I simply adore the NBA Playoffs.

He should just lean into it

We’re remaking everything these days. Wemby’s head hit the floor in a playoff game just like Larry Bird in 1991.

(Slightly lower stakes for Wemby at the moment tho)

First thing I’d probably do is impress him by telling him about the poster I had on my wall when I was a teenager

I’m incredibly jealous of the fan that gets to sit next to David Robinson and just chat with him

The Suns are listing Mark Williams (left foot stress reaction), Grayson Allen (left hamstring strain) and Jordan Goodwin (left calf soreness) as questionable for Game 2 tomorrow

to press 1, press 9

to press 8, press 3

to press 0, press 1

things of that nature

Even then, OKC interviewed a bunch of other guys (Will Hardy, Charles Lee, Will Weaver that I know of) to make sure Daigs was the guy.

I am *pretty* certain that the mutual split was truly as mutual as you can get. Like, if Billy would have said “man I can’t wait to rebuild this thing!” then there may have been a… longer conversation that did not involve sharing beers at the end.

Nobody wanted to take parting shots on the way out.

Players don’t want to live in OKC but all you ever hear from guys once they get there is how well they’re treated and how professional the org is. When you’re a non-glamour market like that (or Portland) you have to win on that stuff to even have a chance at keeping players.

Or AppleTV

Or Netflix (I think)

Probably Peacock and Paramount+ too

oh and various gambling and drinking ads

nope

goodness, so you typed that all out to a random social media user, thought "this is a normal thing to do", and still hit reply.

I hope you are better to strangers in real life than you are to strangers online.

every other NBA team and its fanbase:

Watch Wemby HOP A LITTLE BIT! 😤

the spurs fiesta t-shirt colors look incredible together, I can only assume the few refusing to participate don’t believe in community, think polio should come back, etc

sometimes the gambling ad guy!

massively impressed. This looks like a 93+ percent participation rate.

that does not make me any less in on it. See also: Arsenio Hall.

Tom Dundon is the anti-Ishbia.

Do you have anything concretely connecting the NBA to fixing its own games for all of these years, which would require cooperative and coordinated silence from literally thousands of people, or is a random Wikipedia article the best you got?

Either way, don’t care. Try living life less mad. ✌️

“Patently untrue” 😂

Life is better when you don’t live mad. Give it a shot.

✌️

I’m sure you’re right and that the thousands of people who could have blown a lid on this grand conspiracy, which dates back decades, have all chosen to be silent or be silenced. That makes the most sense.

I’ve been worse online. Always trying to be better.

It was a good opportunity for him. Even better than Charlotte would have been, which is unusual for former Thunder players…
