    In Vegas July 26-27.

    Dame was on the original list, but last week said he might not go. David Vanterpool is there as an assistant. Even Kawhi and Hayward are showing up, wonder if Dame will.

    CJ won't be there because of his commitments in China.

    They say superteams are usually made from the relationships developed here. Dame needs to go and work AD a bit. Just hope Dame isn't the one getting recruited.

    You're always pumped.

    If this has you 'seriously pumped', science needs to find a way to harness that energy.

    I feel like Dame and CJ don't understand that the way to build a banana boat crew isn't by tweeting at them. You gotta go spend the summer with them on the Olympic team.

    With the 2019 Fiba games being in China, you'd think these dudes with huge shoe deals would pounce on that chance to play in the country where their sales could blow up. CJ especially. He's with Li Ning and they just made him his own shoe. Playing on team USA would be a huge boost to his brand there. Maybe he and Dame know it's futile-- they would never get selected.

    It is under construction. I know it looks terrible. That's the joke.
