Patty Mills is more than just one of our greatest basketball icons, he is one of the greatest human beings we have ever seen! The world is a better place because of him. Can’t wait to see what his future holds. I feel when b-ball ends, his real purpose will begin. 🐐

It won’t show up on the stat sheet much, but Shea Illi has been the best player for United in the first two games. Not just his work on Casper, but if you watch the games back, watch him chase every O board and help others on D. His defensive energy is contagious and it shows

Treat everyone as if they’re fragile, so that you don’t break those who are. Life is too precious, and we all have a purpose to be in it. You never know what someone is struggling with. Be a reason why someone smiles today, it could go a lot further than you think.

This is so powerful! This is raw emotion. This is real. This is a man who has always wanted to see things change, and has had enough.
For those who didn’t know, Steve Kerr’s Dad was murdered by two gunmen in 1984.
He’s not just speaking words, he’s speaking painful truths.

Absolutely lost for words at the passing of Shane Warne.

This is such a strong performance from Jack White. Nuggets have one two-way spot left, he will be firmly in the mix you’d think. Proving exactly why he is so valuable to any team he plays on. Unselfish, athletic, strength, crashes the glass and defends at a high level

So basically just follow your team on every road game and if they’re ever down 1 at the end of the game...
With 0.5 seconds to play in a tie game, a fan tossed a stuffed animal onto the court in Georgia.
