Miami's preseason prescription for more offense has been for speed and playmaking, and Nikola Jovic is filling the need for both.

Plus, the numbers behind their quest for tempo and the early chemistry between Jakucionis and Ware.

Becky got them gals up there crying.

I've taken to blocking people now because it's mind blowing that it keeps getting weirder.

Still need fans to stop being weird about my faves. Some of the tweets and skeets be so out of pocket.

This was a week. 2025 has been another adventure. Truly hope the rest of the year blows my mind in only positive ways.

No lie, I hope Terry Rozier has followed how Jewell Loyd got her mojo back.

Refs need to be better but the players need to be better. Review all 6 of Kah's fouls and the ref was right on each one. To make this result about the FT disparity is lazy.

We are witnessing one of the greatest career arcs EVER.

Shannon @sports21all.bsky.social · 1d

Arguably the best player in that NBA 2018 draft is Luka Doncic.
He's made it to the Finals.
5x All NBA
5 x All Star
WCF MVP
ROY
All Rookie
MVP Candidate.
Considered a top 5 talent in the NBA.
His resume doesn't come close to hers and he'll be in the HOF if he retired today.

Deandre Ayton was the 1st pick in the 2018 NBA draft.
He's gone to one finals made All Rookie.

Shannon @sports21all.bsky.social · 1d

Maybe I've gotten soft but I think he deserved to be ejected. He lost his mind for a few splits and the only thing he didn't do was hit the ref.

Ben Pickman @benpickman.bsky.social · 1d

Nate Tibbetts said it was “bullsh—“ that he got ejected. He said it was one of the “weakest” double technicals he’s ever seen. He added that he did not get an explanation as to why he was ejected, though, he said he deserved a first technical. But a second? He said was “weak”

She's only been in the WNBA from 2018.

Daniel Thompson @dr-thompson.bsky.social · 1d

3 WNBA Championships
2 Finals MVPs
3 DPOYs
4 MVPs
5x Block Champ
2x Scoring Champ
5x All-Defense
6x All-WNBA

And she’s still only 29.

Legends aren’t born. They’re built 😤

A’ja Wilson is the first player in WNBA & NBA history to win MVP, DPOY, Finals MVP & a scoring title in a season 👏

Shannon @sports21all.bsky.social · 1d

Did A'ja just put together the most dominant season we've ever seen by a player?

The answer is yes.

So happy for Cheyenne Parker-Tyus and for Dana. Always happy when former Sky players get them some hardware.

For sure. They were really having a hard time putting the game before their emotions. I would be frustrated facing a sweep also, but composure can make or break teams under pressure.

I know the Tiktoks for B'aja are doing to go crazy.
