Tatum halfway there for 2020s.

Wow, shocks in the 80s and 90s. Mind you, did they include or exclude 99, which didn't have a game

Larry Bird was first team all-star 1980-1988. He missed 1989 season due to heel surgery. Was all-star 1990-1992 as well.
Magic was first team all star 1980, then 1982-1992. He missed 45 games in 1981 due to knee injury but was obviously first team all-NBA talent.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

They'd hit another level if they ever learn to play defense.

Fake account but probably pretty close to the truth.

This is what happens when owners are no longer committed to shelling out that $$. Let's see what happens to the Cs in a year or two.

Ball security may have been a point of emphasis last season after past two postseasons.

Brodric Thomas raining 3's last night for the new "G League United" team which I just found out existed lol

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Ion like it. I love Shaq but he has some trash takes the last few years!


Overpaid is a different convo, because you can argue that… without considering you’re worth what someone is willing to pay you. What Shaq said is for clicks, he isn’t the worst, definitely not the most overpaid imo.

I’m fairly certain Ben has mental troubles, I’m leaving that alone, I’ve discussed it enough.

Shaq just joining the mob in the Gobert-bashing and took it too far. Rudy's not taking plays off. Or games off when he's not injured. Not sure what Shaq is on about. If he thinks Gobert shouldn't have won all those DPOYs, then argue that. His salary is his salary. Someone else decided that for him. His limitations are his limitations. But he's playing his butt off when he's on the court. Gobert certainly isn't the WOAT, regardless of his salary.
