NBA Conference FinalsTop 10 Players (Sports)


    The list of the 10 best players in the final four teams left in the 2024 NBA Playoffs. This is not a ranking of who has had the best career or who has the brightest future, it is the best 10 players right now. 


  1. Luka Doncic

    When Luka isn’t yelling at the refs he is one of the most pure offensive basketball players in the game today, maybe of all time. At his best he can carry the Mavs to the finals and win the dang thing. 


  1. Jayson Tatum 

    Taum is not only an elite level scorer but plays defense and crashes the boards. For some reason he is penalized for consistently making playoff runs and being on the best teams. Just a reminder he is only 26 years old still. 


  1. Anthony Edwards 

    Yes, he may be the up and coming face of the league because of his personality but his defense and midrange shot are special. Even better, not only does he welcome the moment but he attacks the moment. 


  1. Kyrie Irving

    Kyrie might be my favorite person to watch play basketball, like ever. He is one of the most skilled players of all time and seems to have taken the role of leader of this Mavs team. 


  1. Jaylen Brown 

    Jaylon Brown might not be better than Tatum but he is starting to look like the alpha this team needs and despite his much criticized dribbling skills he is scoring at a high level. Oh yeah and like Tatum he keeps on winning. 


  1. Tyrese Haliburton 

    Haliburton has come a long way since his game 5 no show vs the Knicks and he is doing big things as a playmaker for the Pacers while he is clearly not 100%. He may be a bit overrated in the media right now but the dude deserves credit for leading his young team this far.


  1. Pascal Siakam 

    In classic Toronto and Indianplois fashion Siakam falls under the radar. However he has been a pivotal offensive and defensive player for the Pacers and make no mistake the Pacers wouldn’t have made it this far without them. 


  1. Rudy Gobert 

    Gobert is always gonna be made fun of no matter how good he plays. But let’s give him his flowers. He is the defensive player of the year who unquestionably impacts the game immensely on the side of the court. 


  1. Jrue Holiday 

    Every team would kill to have a guy like Jrue Holiday on their team. He is a winning player who plays hard, plays great defense, and seems to care more about winning than his numbers. 



  1. Kristaps Porzingis

    If he can stay healthy he is a disrupting defensive and offensive presence and makes the Celtics nearly unbeatable. That’s the key hesitation, “if he can stay healthy.” I still think he is better than KAT though.

You Should Watch: Big Fish (Movies)

         Tim Burton is a bit eccentric, well maybe very eccentric but that is what makes him so endearing. Whether it’s Beetlejuice or his iteration of Batman in 1989 it seems that the award winning director prides himself and his films on being well, distinguishable. Burton has had his fair share of successes and flops. When it comes to the flops however they are often one sided in the sense that if the critics don’t like it usually the audience does and vice versa however if neither like it you can count on his devoted group of fans to find the silver lining. This is what makes his 2001 remake of Planet of the Apes rather disappointing, aside from an interesting twist Burton’s rendition to put it kindly falls flat on its face and seemed to not land with any audience. Burton's career has not really been the same since so what comes next in Burton’s filmography after this misstep is potentially his most underrated and odd film of all.     ...

Ninety-Five Senses the Biggest Snub of the 2024 Oscars (Movies)

A few weeks ago the Oscars came and went with mostly positive reviews. There were no slaps or wrong announcements in fact it was hailed as a success. This came as welcomed news for the Academy as it has been a rather rough stretch of shows the last few years. Even bigger for the Academy was that not only was the show a broadcasting and entertainment success but their choices were hailed as consistent and dare I say correct. I know shocker, the Academy picked the right people to win, what a world we live in. However, now that we are a few weeks removed and my daze of excitement from Gosling's dazzling “I'm Just Ken” performance is gone, I have one major complaint about what I thought was the biggest snub of the night.  Usually the public gets up in arms about things like best picture or best actor, these are the categories that most are at least a little bit educated on. This means upsets like Shakespeare in Love winning over Saving Private Ryan are almost always the big story....
