YEAH. GET THIS FUCKING BOZO OFF OF TV.

Rich Paul says De’Aaron Fox is Tony Parker, Stephon Castle is Kawhi Leonard, Dylan Harper is Manu Ginóbili, and Victor Wembanyama is Tim Duncan

I’m glad Victor didn’t shake their hands. No need to appease performative social codes when you already know how dudes speak on your name behind closed doors.

REPORT: The Thunder have been active in exploring multiple trade options, including moving up in the lottery, with noted interest in Michigan’s Center Aday Mara, per @JeremyWoo.

Is this where you are when you’re never wrestling? Why do guys like Darby Allin and Kenny Omega wrestle every single week, and yet, they don’t ask us to “acknowledge them”? Could it be that the work begets the acknowledgement? Enjoy the field trip, you actual dork.

Or maybe have some pride in representing your company as the top lad. When I held any IWGP championship I wanted to travel the world calling out the best to show them all New Japan is the better. Obviously his home market is Japan & he has done great job in the top spot to me this screams “ insecure” The roster clearly isn’t as driven as the guys I was once surrounded by. Just big belly boys wanting to keep playing “Free Play” Grow a sack, fill it with some nuts, call out the BITW & show the world how good New Japan is…. Just my thoughts.

"Western conference better than the east"

I've seen a few people claiming Victor Wembanyama is the best player in the world in the wake of the Finals (I suppose that boosts a Knicks championship that doesn't need any boosting), but I don't know how you emerge from that series with that take. Top 3 or 4, sure. But best? Wemby showed way too many weaknesses on offense (the more important half of basketball) to own that distinction.
