“Every rival was defeated”

Curry came in the league in 2009 and has more championships. (Or “as many” if you count that bubble bullshit.)

Every idol was destroyed? To paraphrase Draymond to Paul Pierce, “you ain’t Jordan.” You never supplanted the consensus #1. You played in LA longer than anywhere else and never meant half as much as Kobe.

The ad is just arrogant bullshit, egomaniacal and fictitious.
 


They confirm at the end that it was not Dwight— I didn’t think so because “top 5 at his position” would be really understating the quality of player.

Also Akademiks is a bit graphic with his description to be claiming to be straight (if that’s how he presents).
 


From 2006 to the mid-2010s, few teams in the world could match the greatness of Spain’s golden generation.Led by legends like Pau Gasol, Marc Gasol, Juan Carlos Navarro, Jose Calderon, Rudy Fernandez, and Sergio Rodriguez, Spain became a global powerhouse.They won the 2006 FIBA World Cup, back-to-back EuroBasket titles, and went toe-to-toe with the USA in two legendary Olympic Finals (2008 & 2012).What made them special wasn’t just talent; it was chemistry. A generation of players who grew up together, blending NBA skill with European fundamentals and unbreakable brotherhood.Spain’s golden era cemented them as one of the greatest national teams ever.A dynasty that left behind trophies, unforgettable battles, and a legacy of excellence that still inspires.

Legends... :hmm:

Klay Thompson says he would absolutely join the BIG3, "Especially with that four-point ball."

Michael Cooper: "When you retire, would you consider coming and playing in the BIG3?"
Klay Thompson: "Absolutely, especially with that four-point ball. That gets me excited. I want the BIG3 to go international. You know that would be so fun to see the BIG3 go overseas and do a little tour."
"I would love that, Europe or Asia. We would love that, and we know how popular, believe it or not, three-on-three basketball is played more around the globe than five-on-five. The opportunity for growth with the league is incredible."
"So big shout out to Cube and all you guys for this incredible league, it's awesome."
Klay's brother, Mychel, previously played in the BIG3
(via Showtime with Michael Cooper Lakers podcast)



This would make me interested in the Big 3. A real top 100 player, one of the greatest shooters of all-time, a multiple time champion. He'd be their biggest get ever.
 


If you assume sleeping 8 hours a day and reserving 4 hours a day for eating, exercise, human contact, etc, it would take 43.25 years.

@M.H.C. @shaddyvillethug — If we save enough in the next five years to eat and shelter for the rest of our lives, we can possibly become absolute experts on the NBA through today before we die.

And then the kids will tell us how the players from 40 years ago were all basically plumbers.
