You know the 2000s NBA was bad when a guy named Neil Fingleton made the 2000 McDonald's All-American game. Like, no offense, but the last time there was a notable Neil in the NBA had to be in the 1940s

I, for one, am shocked that James Harden has choked in the playoffs for like the 11th time!

I am still a "small-time YouTube channel" (4.5k subs), but it's neat to see that since fully pivoting from sports video games to sports history, my average watch time is over 11 minutes, and I've averaged more than 100K views per month for 6ish months. Be great if it continued to steamroll

I never thought I'd become a Disney adult, but here I am watching a 90-minute video about the Epcot eateries to plan my next trip after going for the first time six months ago

We all hope to find somebody who rides as hard for us as @tolkoto.com rides for @grubb.wtf

Something I've been thinking about lately, and is top of mind with EA's recent layoffs seemingly being FC 25-related to some degree: With Fortnite's success, how far are we from seeing Captain America and Luke Skywalker in Ultimate Team? Like, two years?

I am, at best, a Dominic Lovett in games media, but I'm following our Dan Campbell (though Grubb has better hair) where ever he goes. Dude makes everything around him better and takes it to higher heights

Enough folks have tagged @vgbees.com I feel compelled to say that yes, if you like what @nikigrayson.com and I bring to the table (white hot chemistry, no time spent on bankrupt discourse, a lot of laughter) then I recommend supporting us however you can:

Rudy noted that Ant didn't give him props after the last game, and is making sure people don't forget he's still here

"NO TARRIFFS INVOLVED" is an unhinged ad read from this Lakers-T-Wolves game

It is wild that Anthony Edwards already owns the five highest-scoring playoff games in Timberwolves history, but it is mind-blowing that the only other guys with games in the top 10 are Sam Cassell and Troy "The Laker Killer" Hudson (KG's best game is 12th)

That Jamal Murray heat check is one of the more audacious things I've ever seen. Bro, has no regard for backup's life

Aaron Gordon's legacy first round is going so well, I'm almost ready to forgive Zach LaVine for his highway robbery in the Dunk Contest

Between poop-gate and the lack of socks tonight, Shaq is having a hell of an end to the TNT era

It's pretty wild that, without a stunning fourth quarter collapse in Game 1 and some real bad ref ball in Game 4, the Pistons would have a series win over the Knicks after winning 14 games last year

The Vikings effectively drafting Sam Howell over Shedeur Sanders is peak comedy

It's pretty wild how good Scotty Pippen Jr has become over the last few years. Hoping we get a similaiar trajectory for Bronny

Deion is going to sue the Giants for picking Dart first

Oh, Jalen Duren, sweetie...
