Beth Holland+FollowKlay Thompson: “Mavs Have the Best Frontcourt in the NBA”Klay Thompson is confident about Dallas’ ceiling this season: “I think we personally have the best frontcourt in the NBA when we're healthy…. And then getting a guy like D-Lo and having guard depth, I'm just really excited.” With him and Kyrie Irving in the backcourt, plus a healthy frontcourt rotation led by AD, Dereck Lively, and others — and now D’Angelo Russell adding guard depth — the Mavericks could be one of the most dangerous teams in the West. Do you buy Klay’s claim — best frontcourt in the league? #KlayThompson #DallasMavericks #NBA #KyrieIrving #NBADebate #NBANews #Sports 40Share
Robert Johansson+FollowDennis Rodman: The 5'9" Late Bloomer Who Became a LegendDennis Rodman was cut from his high school team at 5’9”—only to grow nearly a foot in a year and discover basketball at age 21. By 25, he was drafted—and went on to become one of the greatest rebounders and most feared defenders in NBA history. Truly one of the wildest origin stories ever. #NBA #DennisRodman #BadBoys #NBALegend #GrowthSpurt #HeightTips #DPOY #ReboundingKing #Sports 261Share
Pamela Owens+FollowThe Timeless Jordan 4The Air Jordan 4 dropped back in 1989, but it’s still one of the most iconic sneakers in the game. From the legendary “Bred” and “White Cement” to modern collabs like Travis Scott’s “Cactus Jack,” the 4s have kept their place as a true streetwear staple. Lightweight mesh panels, visible Air cushioning, and that bold wing design — it’s a silhouette that stands out anywhere. Some say it’s the most versatile Jordan ever, perfect on-court and off. Do you think the Jordan 4s are the greatest retro J’s of all time? #Jordan4 #Sneakerhead #AirJordan #SneakerCulture #RetroVibes #Kicks #NBA #Sports 301Share
Beth Holland+FollowMichael Porter Jr. Says Nikola Jokic Is the GOATMichael Porter Jr. made his case for his teammate Nikola Jokic as the greatest of all time: “He could have won MVP five years in a row. Can you name another player who could’ve?” Jokic’s résumé already includes three MVPs (2021, 2022, 2024), a 2023 Finals MVP, and an NBA championship. Beyond the awards, his dominance and consistency make MPJ believe the Joker belongs in the GOAT conversation. Do you agree with MPJ — is Joker already the greatest? #NikolaJokic #MichaelPorterJr #NBA #DenverNuggets #MVP #GOATDebate #MyNBAGOAT #Sports #NBALegends 30Share
Beth Holland+FollowIs Ja Morant Already Better Than Prime Westbrook?Looking at the numbers, accolades lean toward Russ: 3× All-NBA, 3× All-Star by age 26 Better rebounding, steals, and FT% But Ja’s case is strong: 22.6 PPG, 7.4 APG on .469 FG% through his first 307 games Already led his team past the first round as a clear #1 option, putting up absurd stats against elite defenses — something Russ never did as the main guy in OKC. So the question is: are we underrating Ja’s impact compared to what Westbrook had accomplished by the same age? #JaMorant #RussellWestbrook #NBA #NBADebate #BasketballTalk #NBALegends #Sports 20Share
FromTheLand+FollowJeremy Lin Retires: A Pioneer for Asian Guards in the NBAJeremy Lin has officially retired after 15 years of professional basketball, calling it “the hardest decision I’ve ever made.” From going undrafted in 2010 to sparking “Linsanity” with the Knicks in 2012, Lin became the first American-born NBA player of Chinese or Taiwanese descent and proved that an Asian guard could thrive on the biggest stage. He went on to win a championship with the Raptors in 2019 and inspired countless fans across the world. “I will forever miss playing basketball in front of you all,” Lin wrote. “But our time will go beyond just playing. Here’s to what’s ahead.” More than his numbers, Lin’s journey shattered stereotypes and opened doors for the next generation. A true pioneer, his legacy reaches far beyond the court. #JeremyLin #Linsanity #NBA #AsianBasketball #NBALegends #BasketballHistory #TorontoRaptors #NewYorkKnicks #Sports 51Share
Brandy Rodriguez+FollowWas Wizards MJ Still a Top 10 Player in the League?Michael Jordan’s Wizards run (2001–2003) is often remembered as a footnote — but was he still among the NBA’s elite? At age 38–40, MJ averaged: 21.2 PPG, 5.9 RPG, 4.4 APG Made the 2002 All-Star Game MVP Dropped 40+ multiple times, including 43 points at age 40 (still the oldest player to ever do it). The Wizards never made the playoffs, but Jordan proved he could still hang with the best. So here’s the question: did Wizards MJ still belong in the Top 10 players in the league conversation, or was he more of a star name than a true superstar? #MichaelJordan #Wizards #NBAHistory #NBADebate #GOATDebate #Sports #NBA 71Share
