i really hate these! I really do...
It's a fun debate.
No its not because they duplicate one position every time; they dont list 2 of every position which would actually be a debate; they list one of each position and then an extra player; not really a debate at that point...
Timberwolves have to make some adjustments and that would be interesting bring gobert off the bench.
Oh im not blaming you and or attacking you for posting it; im just saying these nerds that put this shit together need to stop...
Ring over moments lol
Good!! thats what needs to happen when your team does dumb shit...
We have a new contender for biggest piece of shit! 
First KD with his Mom telling us how she was a single parent and how hard they had it. With no help at all. She was the second parent to birth a child out of the clear blue sky all by herself.
KD's Dad was never mentioned and somewhere in the outer solar system.
Except his Dad was right there,
And to top it off, his Dad's a fucking basketball coach!
Next contender for biggest piece of shit, Tatum.
We were told the same story, how his Mom was a single parent. Had it hard growing up, no heat and not lights. Also no help at all and again, he was miraculously born with no Father in sight.
The Dad was never mentioned, never seen and Jayson never mentioned him.
Just Mom, all up in the pictures, all up in the videos
Except Tatum's Dad was there, right there!
Strangely his Dad was also a basketball coach.
Now we have a new contender for the title of the biggest piece of shit!
The man's got a Dad that taught him and his brother how to play basketball. Coach them and his nephew who's also in the NBA.

Vaughn, who was a high school basketball star in Toronto, taught his sons and nephew how to play basketball.

Shai has a close bond with his mom — and never forgets to give Charmaine a sweet shout-out on Mother's Day.
"Happy Mother’s Day to the best mom in the world. thanks for everything you’ve done from carrying my big head for 9 months to calling me 15 time a day, even tho I’m grown... enjoy ur day mommy," he wrote on Instagram in 2018.
More recently, following the Oklahoma City Thunder's win against the Denver Nuggets in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals, Shai mentioned his mom in a post-game interview, which happened to fall on Mother's Day 2025.
"Moms are the best," he told ESPN. "Without them, we'd be nothing."
With all the love from his parents, who nurtured him and taught him how to be the man he is and how to play basketball.
And with that, this piece of shit gets on national tv and tells the world that his wife's the only person in this world who taught him what love and sacrifice really meant.
Good luck at family dinners asshole!

It won't stop whether we like it or not.
Moments are overrated.
Scenario A: Team A sweeps Team B, winning all 4 games by 20+ points. No drama, probably not many moments.
Scenario B: Team C beats Team D in a 7 game series with all games decided by 5 points or less. Drama throughout.
Team A's victory in Scenario A has no drama and no moments. But it is a much stronger and more dominant performance. Why on earth would Team C's outcome be valued above Team A's?
This substanceless criticism of Jayson Tatum must stop.
It is some of the lamest clickbait. I've seen so many variations with the same 12 players but it gets engagement so somebody shits a new one out every day... It is one of the major pitfalls of the internet era as far as discussion goes.
It isn't nerds doing it, though, it's lazy grifters.
And it would be nice if people were smart enough not to feed into it.
Ameiz XLNC Thompson- born: 2003 (age 22 years)
Dyson James Daniels- born: 2003 (age 22 years)
Evan Mobley- born: 2001 (age 23 years)
Luguentz Dort- born: 1999 (age 26 years)
Draymond Jamal Green- born: 1990 (age 35 years)
Draymond is almost a full decade older than everyone else on that list. 22, 22, 23, 26... 35.
The man does not get enough credit for his individual greatness and longevity.

I'm just holding them to the same standards that were set once we became "too good"
That's it that's all. Keeping the same energy.
IDGAF about Tatum to be clear.
Indifferent
I don't care about Tatum either, I just think the internet mob mentality has led to excessive hate directed at him for no good reason.
