lol tristan your daddys a bad man

lmao @ tristan!

Cuet

“Three weeks ago he wasn’t there, and I jokingly said I’ll have to do it again when he’s there. I meant it,” Tatum said. “He’s 98 percent of the time at every home game. So when I score a career high at a game like this, at center court watching, I’ll never forget him. We’ll be able to talk about it as he gets a little older.”

Though Tatum said he thinks Deuce is a little too young to understand exactly all that was at stake Friday night, he certainly could tell that his father was putting on an incredible show. Through the arduous journey with his own father, Jayson Tatum Sr. was able to give the gift of greatness to his son, up close, in front of the world.

gotta have the fans

you can tell theyre looking around for clay like "wheres clay"

courtside clay they call him

CC aka clay court

;)

Feel like the blazers have pretty solid vibes going into the offs

yah they’ve turned it around after a skid but I can’t tell you what changed. could be the series of really close losses was more of a flukey thing

one part of the recent blazer turnaround has been mccollum and nurkic working themselves back into game shape and sliding back into the flow of things

Jordan Clarkson said meant a lot to get the 6MoY award from Joe Ingles who he’s very close to. Said they drink so many beers together on off days should come out with their own beer. Said he might have to buy a house in Australia to post up on the beach and drink in the summer

Nikola Jokic on his horses: "I like the smell of them. The best feeling ever is when you feed them. The sound of them eating in the stable is the best sound you can ever hear. It's just something that I think just a horseman can feel."

Another story about Mitch: My fiancée is a vet tech. A few months ago, Mitch’s dog came into her job for a minor issue. As a thank you for taking care of his dog, the next day Mitch went out of his way and bought food for the entire staff. He’s a wonderful person. https://t.co/N21kyRiznV

Myles Turner's Lego passion goes way back. Today, he's made a 9,000-piece scale replica of The Titanic...and so much more.

Jaren Jackson Jr. was asked about Dikembe Mutombo's death today.

At first, he gave a short answer saying he knew him his whole life.

Then, after he was asked a completely different question, he explained Mutumbo was his dad's college roommate, and the impact Dikembe had on him. pic.twitter.com/UWfLHiYLgr

— Matt Infield (@Matt_Infield) September 30, 2024

I've talked about Mutombo's death with two different classes the past couple of days, both him and Rose. The contrast was too perfect: one guy a hero who built schools and hospitals, the other a disgraced villain. I'm just a casual basketball fan, so the whole finger-wagging thing was new to me, as was that great Geico commercial Mutombo did. (Learned all this in an ABC news report of his death on YouTube.) I was with a grade 8 class today: by the end of the indoor soccer game they had for gym, I had half of them finger-waving everytime they blocked a shot or made a save.

i foolishly clicked onto this thread thinking it would be about basketry.

/ˈbaskətrē/
noun
