David_j_roth: I think, in the fullness of time, that this is the best bit of basketball analysis I've ever read. Or anyway it is the one I'll remember the longest.

yeah that and klay thompson dribbles like a republican are both all timers

I don't even know what that ones MEANS and it still struck me as true on the level of a physics axiom

I don't think I even remembered the original tweet but I've been calling them backpack threes for years because of it

I definitely didn't remember the exact tweet, but at this point I also don't remember a time before I thought of Draymond as wearing a chunky-but-invisible Jansport out there. I don't remember a lot of things!

they’re in the backpack draymond’s backpack of memories

i think of it as a dora the explorer backpack one of the ones that has a structured shape and its big on him like it would be on a little kid

Last thing Jordan Poole said to Draymond was, “you slow today, how many Trapper Keepers you carrying back there?”

Lol. At the game, saw him shoot, was like that's right

Right up there in my mind with this one and a comment Drew Magary I believe made about 2016-era Harden dribbling full messages in Morse code with the ball before chucking up a step back three (or something to that effect)

Bill Cartwright shot like he was in a Pharcyde video and doing everything backwards.

2 things... #1. How did we get here? #2. You are showing your age bringing up Cartwright!

It’s this one and Jokic playing like a camp counselor holding a popsicle

Seth Rosenthal tweeted a while back that Jokic looks like he plays in flip flops. Moment of enlightenment for me.

The best sports posts fits that intersection of humor, astute observation and detailed and I've only seen it on basketball Twitter and r/nba. It's truly magical. There was one that asked who was the better defender, Andre Roberson or Isaiah Thomas with a gun. I keep thinking of it.

Ever since I heard that Poole got punched for calling Draymond "an expensive backpack for 30" I've wondered...

I missed this at the time for the usual reasons but now it’s permanently implanted in my brain. So, thanks?

Hey you're welcome

Read somebody’s report about a rookie Zion’s upside and they were like ‘imagine Draymond but the backpack has rocket boosters instead of books’ and I think of them in tandem all the time now

it just assembles in the mind effortlessly

Partial to this one, though I guess it's more meta-analysis. www.sfgate.com/warriors/art...

That’s my friend Lucas! We went to college together. I’ll tell him you said that since he’s not on here. Small internet. Small internet.
