Speaking of which... at @fansidednba.bsky.social today, I wrote about two ways in which J-Dub's wrist injury is actually *helping* the Thunder. Just what the rest of the league needed. fansided.com/nba/jalen-wi...

How Jalen Williams' absence is actually helping the Thunder early on
The Thunder need J-Dub back to repeat as champions, but his early-season absence might only help them in the long run.

An illustration of a beleaguered Tom Thibodeau pulling a wagon with a tiny Ricky Rubio and Karl-Anthony Towns in it, eating snacks. Andrew Wiggins is climbing on Thibs' back and Zach LaVine tries to float away holding onto a bunch of balloons. Everyone is spraying silly string, Thibs has an ice cream cone stuck to his head and the words "Thibs eats farts" written on his forehead. This is an artist rendering and there is no evidence that Thibs does actually eat farts.

The only "warrior ethos" we care about ...
Baron Davis rises to dunk over Andrei Kirilenko in the 2007 NBA Playoffs — the signature moment of the "We Believe Warriors" and their upset of the Utah Jazz. Davis is cocking the ball back and pressing his forearm right into Kirilenko's face, as the Russian forward futilely tries to keep him from slamming the ball home.
