Two Chicago-area kids went to military academies in the 1960s, caught a few breaks, won five rings each (plus Olympic gold), and became icons.
But Gregg Popovich never will get the sendoff Mike Krzyzewski did — mainly because he’ll never allow it.

LeBron, Giannis and Embiid are fighting for the scoring title, but actually none of them will lead the NBA in points this season.
No. 1 will be either DeRozan or Trae.
Idea to disincentivize load management: Give the scoring title to the guy who actually scores the most points. – 2:56 PM
