I sees it. My clean v. scruffy looks can be pretty different.
 
This Heat-Spurs game is giving me anxiety like it’s going on right now.

It is pretty damn crazy this was 7 years ago and LeBron is basically still at this same level while Kawhi is on a whoooole different level than this but actually played really well in this series. He was showing flashes of what he’d become.
 
For the veterans around here.

Small forward: ROBERT HORRY

Horry is a bit of an enigma. At the start of the season, the Rockets
were full of hope that he'd build on his selection on the All-Rookie
second team and turn into another Scottie Pippen. However, Robert
struggled badly, so much so that he was pseudo-traded to Detroit with
Matt Bullard for Sean Elliot. When Elliot failed his physical exam,
Horry and Bullard returned to Houston. I expected him to be upset and
pout about being on a team that "didn't want him," but quite the
opposite came to pass! Robert apparently took it upon himself to
prove to the rest of the team that he shouldn't have been traded, and
Rudy T convinced Robert that the only reason he had been traded was
that the Rockets wanted production NOW, which up until then Robert
hadn't been providing. After the trade, Horry went on a mini-tear
through the rest of the regular season and on through the playoffs.
His biggest problem has always been that he is too unselfish on
offense, a rare treat in a Rockets team with Hakeem and Mad Max. His
defense is excellent, he has true three-point range (something that
surprises most teams given that he's 6'10 and played center in
college), and he's a high-flying, slam- -dunking, jamfestin' machine.
I think he's played himself back into being a major component of the
team and is no longer in danger of being traded. If he continues to
develop, ala his Alabama teammate Sprewell, he could be a real menace
in years to come. As it stands, he's a slightly better shooting
version of Derrick McKey, with more time to take that next step.

Funny hypothetical from CBS Sports. Kind of goes along with the "Ringz culture" arguments people have.


I'm definitely going with Option A. Being a 15-time All-Star probably means you've earned Three or four max contracts. In today's NBA, you're talking about easily making over $350-400m in career earnings.

It's kind of unrealistic that you win three MVPs but only who lead your team to the playoffs 5 times.
 
Watching game 6 and 7 of 2013 Finals, totally forgot the 3 Bron hit down 5 with 22 seconds left and the 2 he hit, up 2 with 28 seconds left to ice the game

Didn't realize he was college teammates with Spree

Not old enough to remember that Sean Elliot got traded to Detroit for a season before getting traded back to SAS. I did recall him having a kidney problem... his shot against Rasheed was an All Timer and underrated imo

Blazers making the conference finals 2 years in a row is also low-key forgotten
