The NBA is nearing the end of the decade, and this week Sports Illustrated has celebrated this occasion by rolling out our All-Decade teams. As a companion to that project, I was asked to compile a list of the ten biggest basketball stories of the past decade. The project here is pretty self-explanatory, so I'll just add two notes before we get rolling. First, I've added a few pieces of internet ephemera to each section, because after a decade of covering this sport, my brain isn't capable of contextualizing any of these memories without remembering at least one stupid artifact from NBA Twitter.
