"Ringz" talk in any team sport is the lowest form of conversation 
Also all the GOAT/Top 5 or 10 all time discussions have lowkey gotten played out, especially w/ppl that don't actually watch the fukking games

I feel like they've gotten a lot better with the ones in bold, but I should add I mute most games and listen to music while watching because I hate pretty much all commentators that aren't soccer or hockey.
I don't feel like anyone ever took the non bold one seriously.

Like when Brittany Griner kinda hit the scene

STFU. You're a PR firm's well manicured product used to sell an image to maximize your take from the gullible, mouth-breathing, intellect-deficient sports fans who still believe that heroes and villains exist in the real world.
However, a family y'all ain't

Ronda was absurd to even suggest
I remember some of the LPGA stars there was more serious talk of then playing men tho
The whole a team on the rise has to learn how to win by losing tough playoff series. I feel that narrative is a bit overstated imo. Most instances that rising either needs to improve the roster or coach, get some good fortunate in terms of health, and most importantly their best players perform at their best. This year’s Nuggets team is the perfect example of that. Sure, they are motivated by the bubble loss by the Lakers in 2020, but Jokic and Murray were at their best and they got good production from Gordon, MPJ, and Bruce Brown. Those losses to Suns in 2021 and Warriors 2022 didn’t help Nuggets in 2023 that much.

The JR Smith offensive rebound in the finals jokes, let’s be real Cavs weren’t winning that game anyways and it wasn’t going to change the outcome of the series
