    Two tidbits. KG may be buying the TImberwolves. Jermaine O’Neal and Tracy McGrady are starting their own players energy. I think they’ll do great. They both came to NBA out of high school and will be able to relate to the young players they represent.

    What's the urgent matter. Would testing positive be considered an urgent matter?

    I don't get the cynicism. These efforts should be lauded.

    Zach Lowe is a casual that fools people into thinking he’s an expert because he writes 10,000 words and tosses in a couple video clips. Good for him, but I would never take anything he writes or says seriously.

    He had a pod yesterday with SVG talking about the 8th seed in the west.

    He split it into MEM and NOP.

    No talk about us at all. Kinda pissed me off, not gonna lie. How the hell did Zion supersede Dame in the superstar hierarchy?

    It also seems like there’s more room out of bounds, good for player safety. Wouldn’t be surprised if court side photography was banned permanently, or at least adjusted.

    Lowe is a legit analyst cuz really watches the games. He’ll watch Knick/Hawks so he can be good at his job.
