This is a LeBron-centric graphic and kudos to him for being, you know, the best player on the planet. But MJ, 24-29. Everyone else on this list put up 14 shots max. But 24 for 29!

It’s not GOST (greatest of some times), it’s GOAT. Here’s yet another reason why.

Kobe is still pissed he didn’t try to go 14-for-17 the rest of the way.

Bird could have taken a couple more shots, but the Celtics were ahead by 24, and he’d already gotten a ball boy to put some Allagash White on ice in the locker-room.

The only shot Magic missed was a “grown-up” sky hook.

Ahh, the preseason of the NBA has started, which means now people can argue about meaningless games, as we all become jurors in Meursault’s murder trial, but none of us have a view of the Mediterranean.*

Steve Nash debuted in a Los Angeles Lakers uniform during their opening preseason loss to the Golden State Warriors. In 14 minutes of action, he scored 5 points and dished out 3 assists, including one, gif-ed above, that went through the legs of Jeremy Tyler before landing in the hands of back-up center, Robert Sacre, who then scored. He also drained a 3 after crossing over Jarret Jack, prompting Kobe to say afterward, “It was awesome.”

Speaking of Kobe, Nash also passed out of a double team in the lane to find Kobe on the wing for a 3.

It was this pass that prompted Marc J. Spears to write at Y! Sports, “Steve Nash bonds quickly with Kobe Bryant in Lakers debut.” Among the more interesting quotes from the piece were these:

Kobe, about Nash: ”He just makes the game easy…It’s a joy for me. I’ve had to facilitate and score my entire career. I don’t have to do that now and I’m pretty happy about it.”

Nash, about playing with Kobe: “It felt pretty pretty good…It’s been less than one week. We got a long way to go. …You never know what to expect, but I felt like it wasn’t bad.”

I think Nash is one of the smartest guys in the league in terms of preparation night in and night out, and his reluctance to give this game much significance is another reminder that he’s been through enough 82-game seasons to realize the importance of avoiding any real talk after just one preseason game.

In fact, I’d like to avoid any talk at all about a team’s chances based off how they perform in the preseason. That being said, if the Knicks go 6-0 against the Wiz, Celtics, Raptors, Celtics, 76ers and Nets, then they’re probably going to go 73-9 in the regular season and win the title in the playoffs by going fo’, fo’, fo’ and fo’. <3 you Moses.

And you thought all Knicks fans were misanthropic .**

ballershots:

For those of you not in the know, the teachers of the Chicago Public Schools are on strike. Their demands are remarkably unselfish: expansion of art, gym, and music programs in the city’s more underfunded schools, while asking for modest financial protection for teachers who lost their jobs as a result of school closures.

While many in Chicago, myself included, support the teachers, the recent wave of murders in the city, of which many of the victims school-aged, have left many people fearing the consequences of leaving kids home alone. Obviously a lot of parents work during the day, and for single parents making below-modest wages, there seems to be no solution.

Let there be no doubt that Derrick Rose loves this city, and that his love for this city runs through his veins. Thank you, Derrick.
