“He got me”: Chris Paul finally gives Steph Curry credit for breaking his ankles five years ago
Stephen DunnThere are so many ways to be embarrassed on a basketball court. An airball, getting maliciously blocked, playing for the New York Knicks. Yet, nothing is as demeaning and nightmare-inducing than having your ankles broken in front of the entire world.

No matter your take, we can all agree that watching Curry KO Paul is what we need in these dire times.

But one thing we won't forget is this iconic Allen Iverson story that Dwayne Wade told The Lefkoe Show this weekend. It begins with a very similar setup: A.I. and D-Wade walk into a casino . . .
What happens next is the stuff of legend.

Here's what D-Wade had to stay about the chance encounter in a Puerto Rico casino when he was just a rookie:
Eddie Jones was like “Yo, young fella, come with me.” Eddie Jones was
my veteran at the time. So I go with Eddie Jones and we got to one of
