I was an intern with an NBA team and one time I inbounded a ball to Kobe during warm-ups. You know what would have been really cool? Doing a layup line with him when I was a teenager.

Rewatching The Office is always a downer, because you realize everyone on that show is garbage, and only Dwight has a redemptive arc. (Though I guess Erin’s okay.)

I’m 38 dating a 31-year old. For context, I was 16 when the show went off the air and she was 10.

I live in downtown Seattle. I see unexpected nudity at least once a week.

He goes by Drake. Why is that a problem for you?

That’s well and good until all of us are contractors and none of us is an employee.

Not everyone is a skilled laborer. It’s good if our economy still has a place for people to participate.

They’re turning down millions. What about tens of millions? Or a hundred million?

Yuuuup.

You’re not wrong. Hinkie turned a similar haul into Joel Embiid and not much else (Coangelo and Brand turned the Sixers into an actual franchise and then contender).

These past few weeks have really done a lot to engender sympathy for the Spurs. I'm sorry -- your team deserved better.

Ask Blake Griffin how he feels about the Clips and “the right way.”

Exactly. The owners fought for max deals and it backfired spectacularly. Let Orlando or Milwaukee compete based on cost and we’ll see some more variation in player movement.
