The basketball gods and stars finally aligned and I finally had the chance to chop it up with @clairempls.bsky.social tonight at the Kings at Lakers game.
Iβm naturally drawn to her writing talent because of her unique ability to detail the compelling human experience in players ππ½
too overwhelmed to check my mentions cause itβs been like a yr since i logged on here but iβm back to say i got to meet the π @markjonesespn.bsky.social irl today & i can confirm he is as effortlessly cool & totally lovely in person.
am sure heβll be in his bag like the fries at the bottom tonight
thanks for sharing!
This would be it. Claire talked to Cameron Brink about her journey in the last year and a half.
can confirm this report! lol excited to share the story i'm working on
you're right, better to run it back and be a second round exit again for the umpteenth time
in order to credibly report on something, i have several vetted sources, because that's how journalism works
are you supposing that i don't have any intel to say something like this? do you know what my job is?
lebron has a no trade clause and probably only one other destination he'd be open to, i think you basically take back what you can get. they lose him next summer for nothing
in this scenario, yes
*disclaimer: THIS IS NOT REPORTING*
but what if the big man and guard the the lakers are going to get this summer are jarrett allen and darius garland, and that's why they aren't being aggressive in free agency?
i'm not a grasshopper, dude. i'm a professional analyst
lakers front office not exactly covering themselves in glory so far this week
seeing posts like this i am convinced a large portion of the sports viewing populus has brainworms because in what universe does this far fetched conspiracy theory have legs
bill simmons: *constantly mocks espn for talking about lebron and the lakers*
also bill simmons, on his own pod today: i don't know why this lebron lakers situation isn't a bigger story, it should be
ty!

i'm having fun writing about this one. i can't tell you the last time i had fun writing an article. it's usually kinda like going to the gym: you feel really good after it's done but while you're doing it you kinda wanna die.
what a game

NBA teams were 0-121 when down by 7 or more points in the final 3 minutes of regulation in the NBA Finals over the last 28 postseasons.
They are now 1-121.
