Dennis Rodman is one of the best role players to ever suit up in the NBA. As a five-time champion and all-time great defender, he knows basketball. But this take will definitely evoke some pushback—especially from Boston.
During a recent appearance on VladTV, Rodman suggested that Larry Bird wouldn’t make it in today’s NBA and would need to play overseas. He also said he thinks Nuggets center Nikola Jokić is better than the Celtics legend.
“If Larry Bird played in this era, I think he’d be in Europe,” Rodman said. “Today’s world? Oh, hell no. There’s no way.

The Suns have made plenty of headlines in recent months, specifically with the blockbuster move to acquire Kevin Durant. They didn’t slow down heading into the offseason, proceeding to strike a trade with the Wizards for star guard Bradley Beal.
But with the Suns adding the Durant-Beal tandem to Devin Booker to form one of the most lethal scoring trios in recent memory, it obviously comes at a high cost. Additionally, center Deandre Ayton is heading into the second year of a four-year, $132.9 million contract extension.

Amen Thompson knows more about the NBA Draft than you
Not only can new Rockets’ rookie Amen Thompson jump out of the gym, he could probably also name everyone who played in the gym before him.
Before the NBA Draft, Thompson was asked about the NBA Draft, having to answer which player got drafted higher among the pairing. Despite only being 20 years old, Thompson’s memory of basketball history is already impressive.

Bradley grew up in Vermont and attended high school in Massachusetts. So after winning in Connecticut, he had to celebrate New England style.
Keegan Bradley had a good reason to party Sunday.
He captured his sixth PGA Tour title at the Travelers Championship in his native New England and did so in record style.
With NBA free agency fast approaching, one of the biggest names available is point guard Russell Westbrook. The veteran endured a tumultuous 2022-23 season with the Lakers and Clippers, but he averaged 15.9 points, 5.8 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game.
Even at age 34, Westbrook still offers playmaking ability that could help contending teams. On Monday’s episode of ESPN’s First Take, former Celtics star Kendrick Perkins said the fit is clear for one Eastern Conference power.
“I would also love Russell Westbrook on the Miami Heat,” Perkins said.
Last year, when Tony Khan came up with the concept of a New Japan vs. AEW pay-per-view show, called Forbidden Door, there was a lot of criticism with the idea it would not be a success.
The feeling was that while New Japan Pro-Wrestling has some of the best wrestlers in the world, they are known to only a small percentage of American fans. Plus, because so many of the wrestlers involved were not AEW television regulars, the show didn’t have the long-term story lines to grab the audience.
NBA fans always can depend on Kevin Garnett to give them his unfiltered opinion on myriad topics. He often can be harsh, but this time he decided to give some brotherly advice to one of the NBA’s biggest stars—who has made mistake after mistake recently.
The all-time great took some time out with former Celtics teammate Tony Allen, and the two chopped it up while discussing Ja Morant. The Grizzlies star is facing a 25-game suspension to start the 2023–24 season after he flashed a handgun on Instagram Live for the second time.
