I like the idea of local celebrities or d-listers coming out and having a crack at the anthem. You don't need to be the best singer in the world to belt out your national pride.

Add a ranking system like Top Gear's lap in a reasonably priced car

This is the best idea I've had all morning. Gonna call it a day

An NBA writer at The Athletic is calling this 70-foot alley-oop pass from Jokic to Aaron Gordon "the best pass I've ever seen."

That is a pretty amazing pass. 

However, this writer must not have seen MU vs Grambling on November 12, 2013, otherwise known as the birthdate of Magic Dawson.

Another Wolves/Hawks game I flip to. Another game where the Wolves score at will anytime Young is on the court.

Went back to baseball, I might have all time jinxed this.

Tho to be fair Young is still a minus +/- even with Hawks rolling the second half.

I'm shocked how well Philly did in that trade. Kudos to them.

I guess it's just the Clippers being Clippers.

And for Harden he gets to live in LA without the pressure of playing for the Lakers. Pretty good deal if you're insistent on coasting for the rest of your career.

Pretty sure Harden, PG, Leonard, and Westbrook are all FAs after this year.  And they basically have no good draft picks for like 5 years.

LA is a Lebron retirement/continued brittle AD away from having 2 mediocre teams

Fun finish to the first half. Durant dunked right in Wembanyama's face ... and then in the very next sequence, Wembanyama went around KD and dunked on the entire Phoenix team.

Suns are killing the Spurs at halftime, though; that dunk was Wemby's first hoop of the game.

Wemby is at least a full year away.  Eventually he'll get there but this will be a year primarily of learning.  The Spurs are brutally bad.  I would like to see him play a little closer to the rim.

A year away from what?  Turnovers and 3 point shooting are the only thing to complain much about right now.  But he's already averaging 16, 8, and 2 and is All Defense good on the other side of the court.

Yeah. It’s the end of the world.

And the Celtics may be the greatest team ever.
