When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

They are players who coach

That is entirely different

I guess I could have been more clear. But my point that Lebron is coach of the year is completely consistent with the idea that coaches don’t matter in the nba!!

lol yes he is

e: you could maybe argue Conley if you're just looking at this year but he's been hurt for a big chunk of it and the Jazz didn't really miss a beat (heh). Rudy is a lot better than Mitchell.

He leads him in like literally every all in one stat. Mitchell scores more points but Rudy is way more important to the team, he's a big part of the offense and basically a one man elite defense.

All but two stats, Spida also leads the team in “not getting the league shut down”, tied with everyone else on the Jazz that isn’t Rudy

When you trip over the multiple bodies of the men you just killed with a slam dunk it becomes cool again.

Edwards was pretty bad tonight though but the dunk was still amazing.

if you dunk a dunk as hard as ant and land on your feet you didn't dunk hard enough

nothing cooler than not being able to handle the magnitude of your own dunk
