The Official 2025/2026 NBA Season - The New York Knicks Are The 2026 NBA CHAMPIONS!!!

I challenge anyone to find a player whose first points were a better preview of their future.



Only way it could have been more perfect is if he had gotten ejected.
 
Doc Rivers on Bucks being eliminated from playoff contention: "It's been disappointing, obviously. Since I've been here, I haven't had a healthy stretch and it's been your key guys. It's been Giannis. It's been Dame ... This year, having only one quote-unquote star, every other team has two and three. We needed health. We were thin ... All the talk and all that stuff probably didn't help either."

DOC RIVERS' EXCUSE ARCHIVE

(Today's excuse at the end)

• 2010 – Perkins got injured (In the NBA Finals, Celtics lost to Lakers in G7)
• 2015 – Chris Paul played on one foot (Clippers blew a 3-1 lead to Houston "And Houston was the home team too")
• 2020 – Players wanted to leave (Clippers blew a 3-1 lead to Denver "They didn't want to stay in the bubble")
• 2021 – Ben Simmons was useless (Sixers blew a 3-1 lead to Atlanta, threw Simmons under the bus to the press)
• 2022 – "Would you ask Pop?" (Implied he doesn't owe the media any accountability)
• 2023 – Embiid was injured (Sixers lost to Celtics in G7)
• 2024 April – Travel staff wasn't professional (Bucks lost to Washington)
• 2024 Playoffs – Giannis + Dame got injured (Bucks eliminated by Pacers after down 2-3)
• 2026 – One star isn't enough / Media environment (This season's closing with today's statement)






These mostly strike me as valid explanations rather than excuses. :dunno:
 
Crazy how all these foreign language NBA tweets have started popping up recently.

The app automatically translates so I only notice it was in another language if I post it here.
 


I think this and his overall shooting put Jokic in the GOAT center conversation. Having Shaq over Jokic is just silly at this point.

Only names that can arguably go ahead of him are Wilt, Russell, KAJ and Olajuwon.

Also, imagine if Westbrook plays next season and Jokic breaks the record against him.
