FromTheLand+FollowDaryl Morey: “Harden Is a Better Scorer Than Jordan”"It’s just factual that James Harden is a better scorer than Michael Jordan.” It's widely admitted that Harden’s step-backs, free throws, and insane efficiency in his prime made him nearly unstoppable. The question is: does that really top MJ’s midrange dominance and finishing? Who you got as the better scorer: Harden or Jordan? #JamesHarden #MichaelJordan #NBA #NBAHotTakes #NBAUnpopularOpinion #BasketballDebate #NBALegends #Sports 04Share

FromTheLand+FollowShaq Once Choked a Teammate for Not Passing the BallDuring their time together on the Phoenix Suns, Shaquille O'Neal reportedly grew frustrated with Gordan Giricek for consistently skipping passes to him and taking shots himself. According to Grant Hill, the tension boiled over when Shaq threw Giricek to the ground and started choking him after a verbal exchange — telling teammates later he just wanted to show him “who the boss is.” Giricek wasn’t injured, but he soon left the Suns and returned to Europe. The story only came to light years later, adding another chapter to Shaq’s reputation as one of the most intimidating — and volatile — teammates in NBA history. #Shaq #NBAHistory #PhoenixSuns #NBAStories #BigDiesel #ShaquilleONeal #NBALegends181Share

Pamela Owens+FollowHow Would LeBron’s Game Translate if He Grew Up in the 60s?If LeBron had grown up in the 1950s and entered the NBA in the 1960s, how different would his game look? Would his size have forced him into a different position? How much would 1960s nutrition and training cut down his weight and explosiveness? Which of his strengths would still dominate, and which would suffer most? And beyond LeBron — which modern player’s position or style would change the most if they came up in a different era? #NBA #LeBronJames #NBAHistory #GOATDebate #BasketballTalk #NBAWhatIf #NBALegends #Sports 40Share

Brandy Rodriguez+FollowJeff Teague Says Russ > KawhiJeff Teague stirred the pot, saying Kawhi Leonard didn’t have a better career than Russell Westbrook. “You don’t have a league MVP, you was never the best player in the NBA. If you put Kawhi on those OKC teams, they wouldn’t win.” Kawhi’s Finals MVPs and two titles vs Russ’s MVP and triple-double legacy — two very different careers. Who do you think had the better career? #RussellWestbrook #KawhiLeonard #NBA #NBADebate #NBALegends #BasketballTalk #Sports 10Share

Beth Holland+FollowDirk Turned Down $92M to Stay at DallasIn 2014, Dirk Nowitzki had massive offers on the table — both the Lakers and Rockets reportedly put out $92 million deals. Instead, Dirk declined and chose to re-sign with the Mavericks for 3 years, $25 million. A huge pay cut, but one that kept him in Dallas for the rest of his career. One of the clearest examples of loyalty over money in NBA history. Would any superstar today make the same decision? #NBA #DirkNowitzki #Mavericks #NBALegends #Loyalty #MavsNation #MVP #Sports 30Share
