NYC helicopters are a menace

We’re not supposed to say that part out loud

Angel Reese had 22 points and 21 rebounds on 52% shooting plus 2 AST, 1 BLK and 1 STL. A 20-20 game. Good lord. That woman was WORKING.

Pretty cool to see RJ Barrett scoring over one of his childhood role models, Andrew Wiggins. Here's what RJ told me about Wiggins during our convo for the upcoming book:

Raps training staff probably wrapped Scottie’s ankle extra tight to tank

This has been rough to stomach. First KAT, now Wiggins.

I’m sure Bam is underrated. But I just *feel* he’s overrated.

Idk what Scottie has been on all game. I call it the Cyber Truck curse.

Raps still have a problem over-passing

Mogbo saving that ball was ill advised

Is Jacquez Jr injured? How is he a rising star and getting no run?

RJ Barrett is a 🐶

Justice for Angel

Lunar owls getting a critical foul overturned? Am I shocked? 🫢

If we keep playing the Sixers, we might be in trouble

How it started. How it’s going

Unrivaled co-founder and player Napheesa Collier is giving half of her prize money for winning the league's first 1-on-1 tournament to her training and performance staff and assistant coaches working with her team, sources told Kendra Andrews.

An entire government built on the premise of owning the libs. Revolting.

It's been cool watching Jayson Tatum's evolution as a playmaker over the past few years. Like the setup before this PnR -- and really good stuff from Kristaps -- then holds Embiid w an extra dribble before hitting the pocket. Jrue clears wing, Jaylen in short corner too.

ICYMI, I profiled Immanuel Quickley, and what finally getting a chance to co-lead an NBA team means to him

major news.

NEW: I wrote women's basketball for many years at SPORTS ILLUSTRATED and miss being able to write those stories. So this was a great assignment: On the @tempobasketball.bsky.social's first-ever general manager and her plans to help build a Canadian WNBA franchise: www.nytimes.com/athletic/614...

I tried switching to duck duck go. But these results stink.

Canada win hockey, has egg. Trump lose hockey, no egg.

McDavid does it 😮‍💨

wtf he’s on a book tour?

Scottie Barnes posting photos in front of a cyber truck. Raptors finished as a franchise.

Gave up watching the hockey game. Not enjoyable to watch when a loss is likely to give Trump more fuel to bloviate about annexing Canada.

Canada has always had superior jerseys to the US. In all sports.

I remember when they used to call goals back for having a skate in the crease. Even if by an inch.

This arena is dead

First blood 🇨🇦

Ousting Adams to end up with Cuomo is some seriously dystopian monkey’s paw horror story

Breaking News: The Trump administration today repatriated the 170+ Venezuelans it sent to Guantanamo Bay, emptied the migrant operation it hastily established earlier this month. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u...

This style of skeeting is going to carry over to Mitch McConnell on a daily basis

I was too young at the time, but it’s crazy for me to read about MJ’s first retirement. He was THIRTY years old. Three straight titles, seven straight scoring titles, and three MVPs. I can’t think of any comparable athlete that if they retired today would cause those kind of shockwaves in sports.

Checking to see if Court of Gold is safe for me to watch….NOPE 😢🇨🇦💔
