Nowadays we succumb to Common Truths -- fed through the Echo Chamber of clickbait merchants and attention whores. Narratives that grow like weeds sometimes or spread like wildfire and may reside anywhere on the truth spectrum, depending in part on the forces that fan them forward

Please for the love of god, boot Schumer and Jefferies out and place real leaders into power
Is it time to talk about Jalen Brunson's hairstyle yet? Because it really screams 'yikes' as Detective Madison.
Probably a mandate from upstairs and not Coach Mosley's preferred option but Fears should NOT start or feature in crunch time --this is a main reason why @PelicansNBA are 0-3. Please stop forcefeeding us Fears before he's properly developed. Start Bey instead. Win games #pelicans
Something I really appreciate about @SnowfallFX and @TheDropFX
The way they take their time with the story. Respecting the audience by giving it time/grace to feel, think, reflect and appreciate.

The Knicks also have another factor working in their favor: Which other NBA team would be willing to guarantee him close to a quarter of a billion dollars?
A few teams will enter the summer of 2027 with north of $50 million in cap room, but how many would be willing to throw max money at a 32-year-old center?
The Nets, Bulls and Clippers are projected to have that type of cap space, but would they want to invest it in Towns?
And how many of those destinations would actually appeal to KAT? Would he leave a championship contender for a rebuilding situation simply because another franchise offered more money (especially after finally experiencing what it’s like to win at the highest level)?
Would he be willing to leave his beloved NYC for Sacramento, Milwaukee or Memphis?
Those aren’t insignificant questions.
🚨 New Words 🚨
KAT Ramps Up Pressure on Knicks Front Office...
"Both sides have leverage.
And both sides have plenty to lose if they push too hard.
Somewhere between $190 million and $276 million is presumably a number that allows Towns to feel properly rewarded without sending the Knicks’ payroll somewhere Dolan has already vowed it won’t go.
Finding it may be Leon Rose’s most delicate negotiation yet."

Apparently Towns is as dumb as folk on social media who think the expiring supermax contract that he lucked into before the new CBA, is now his salary floor.
The @nba SUPERMAX METRIC IS DEAD, as @BobbyMarks42 alluded to
KAT SHOULD GET A PAY CUT BC % OF PAYROLL IS THE NEW METRIC
KAT, Hart and McBride await new contracts
"All 3 want a deal that reflects their contributions to the team" -
@Krisplashed
For KAT, that should be abt $5M/yr more than OG, not $15M more
KAT makes more than Brunson, Shamet, Alvarado, McBride, Clarkson, Drummond COMBINED #knicks

I mean if trash bins were a proper place for shit, we'd shit in trash bins
So yes, we've jumped the shark with the dogs.
Too many recreational areas and residential blocks in upscale areas reek of or steadily smell like DOG SHIT.
Dogs are like assholes now. Everybody's got one
I was strangely undecided. Like 60/40 against going. Not sure why that 40 was so high. Then I remembered Trump cost us a sweep so fuck that. I don't want Stephen Miller's slime on any of our #Knicks anyway.

So LeBron was praying for #Knicks to lose to Spurs so he could ride into NYC on his selfish horse. Hey, @KingJames.. hold this🖕🏾
LeBron James told ESPN's @mcten that he envisioned joining the Knicks as a free agent to finish his career, but ultimately put a stop to those plans after the Knicks won the NBA championship.
"I had visions of playing in [Madison Square] Garden and finishing my career in the Garden. One of the best places I've ever played.
I think it's the No. 1 arena in the world, as far as for a basketball player. But after they beat San Antonio, I was like, 'Hey, I can't.' I couldn't do it."
[The media] wouldn't have let me lay that down, at all. But much respect to the Knicks, obviously. An unbelievable team, unbelievable players. Shout out Jalen Brunson. I love that guy, he's unbelievable. But, yeah, I'm happy where I'm at and I'm looking forward to it"
