- I don't know if it qualifies as a hot take, but I think it is reasonable to believe that a 5-foot-3 dude carving out a 14-year NBA career is more of a unicorn than a 7-foot guy who can shoot 3s and stuffMuggsy Bogues defied all odds playing in the NBA at 5'3"... a true one-of-a-kind 🌟 🎉 12th pick in 1987 🎉 14-year NBA career 🎉 7.6 APG (21st all-time) 🎉 Averaged double-double in 1993-94 HAPPY 60TH BIRTHDAY, @MuggsyBogues!
00:00 - Respect Thomas Bryant calling for the ball with a deep seal in the key. Records are made to be broken. Fundamentals are forever.THIS PHOTO. HISTORY.
- "catch me at MSG on powerful edibles nestled snugly between Cecily Strong and Edie Falco" feels like a barlol my guy action bronson high as a rocket ship
00:00 - This is the biggest Shammgod I've ever seen. It's a Shamgoddamn.This has at least a chance to get into the FBHOF.

You ain’t got infinite wiggles.” 👀 (via @shobasketball)
- I find the Lakers' nepotism unseemly. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to congratulate Leon Rose, who used to be the agent of Rick Brunson, who is an assistant coach and the father of Jalen Brunson, whose godfather is Leon Rose and whose agent is Sam Rose, on reviving the Knicks.
- Markelle Fultz coming back from all that to be a functional NBA player with the occasional helping of legitimate sauce remains one of the cooler stories in the league in recent yearsthat’s my point gawd 😈
00:00 - "His favorite song (Bands A Make Her Dance)"Ovechkin’s goal-record party: His favorite restaurant (Balos Estiatorio) His favorite song (Bands A Make Her Dance) Immediately handed two beers
- Sure seems like lots of people have big thoughts about The White Lotus, and more power to them, but the thing I'm thinking about a few days later is: there should be more programming that features Sam Rockwell doing little somersaults.
