My favorite thing about the NBA is that there aren’t flukes in a literal sense. This isn’t the NCAA tourney where a couple hot games can get you to an elite 8.
In a best of 7, the better team wins 99/100.

“He was playing nobody! Look at this defense!”
Him being this much better than any of his comp is why he’s the GOAT in the first place. Like, that’s literally the point. He was better relative to his era than any player has ever been.

I’m going to say the hard truth:
The issue here isn’t that Bron didn’t win MVP it’s that Marc deserved 1st team all defense
LeBron says it doesn’t make sense that he hasn’t won DPOY, comparing it to Beyoncé never winning AOTY
"The year I finished 2nd… the guy who won Defensive Player of the Year didn't even make 1st Team All-Defense"

Boogie Cousins hype is so hilarious.
That man at his peak wasn’t even a better player than Bam Adebayo is right now ngl
Before the Gen Z analytics hacks blackballed him, Boogie Cousins was a force. The most skilled bully of his era with a further ability to do everything on the offensive end like Joker does now. No defender in the game today is holding Boogie’s jock straps.

Kyrie is:
- 2nd on the team in scoring
-taking almost 18 shots per game
-averaging a career high in assists
-on the 2nd best offense in the league.
And the Mavs are 5-1. He is shooting plenty, putting up numbers and impacting winning.

Lauri would make the Kings a title contender but you’d rather have fucking Keegan Murray I’m sick
The Jazz call and offer Lauri Markkanen for Keegan Murray and Davion Mitchell.
No picks included.
Markkanen is averaging 23.7 points, 8.6 rebounds, 1 assist, 1.1 steals, and 0.8 blocks per game.
He’s owed 2 years, $35 million, but I assume the Kings would extend him.
