What will be higher tonight, Thon Maker's block total or alleged professional basketball player Tony Snell's point total?

It would be a bummer to send the Bradley Center out with an L.

Giannis is due for a monster game. I would be encouraged by Jabari's rebounding at the end of Game 5. He was fighting for those boards. He's such a mysterious player to me.

Go Bucks.

Imagine how good LeBron would be if he had the clutch gene.

I'm debating posting some stats about his game winners/buzzer beaters in comparison with MJ and Kobe. If I thought it would only make Verb call me gay I'd do it, but I'm kinda worried it might give the good homie an aneurysm.

I mean, basically he's good. There's nothing that exciting. His FG% on playoff game winning/tying shots in the last 5 seconds is better than MJ and he has more playoff game winners and buzzer beaters than MJ now.

Kobe only has 1 buzzer beater (so LeBron has as many as MJ and Kobe combined [thanks Kobe]) and his FG% is literally half of MJ and LeBron's. How some people continue to argue Kobe > LeBron boggles my mind.

Duncan was better than Kobe.

Most casual fans would not agree however.

Yeah. I'm a pretty big Kobe hater, so there's that. I think a person could make a good enough case for either one, though. In other words, they're very close to each other.

You can tell a lot about what people value in a basketball player with their rankings of the best players of all time.

Both of those things are true.
