lol I have been banging this drum to blank (slack) stares from 20something coworkers since the bracket dropped.

Think this was the closest we got: www.hulu.com/series/ef1cb...

So you're saying there's a chance ...

Everything else just seems like it is attempting to replace thinking or needs so much cleanup as to be near-neutral or negative on time/effort

Literally the only 'easier' or time-saving maneuver I've successfully pulled off was copying out a table of the summer dollar movies from an article and having it add those to my calendar so i wouldn't forget

It's been a ride for the Herons, brother.

Hey third-rate Frank is somebody else's first!

It was a sad, proud day to be helming the NBA homepage. Know that Shaun Powell crushed the tribute.

Lenny Wilkens, in a black Seattle Sonics leather jacket, smiles brightly while greeting a friend courtside at an NBA game.

We've got 50 years between us, but watching Lenny Wilkens coach provided an early realization that a kid from Brooklyn could live an NBA life.

His story only became more remarkable as my knowledge of it deepened. A real one whose greatest gift was sharing every last one of his.

The 2025-26 NBA.com GM Survey: www.nba.com/news/2025-26...

New and unknown adventures await, though I'll be sharing that familiar #ViewfromCouch from fresh angles. Stay tuned. In the interim, if you – or your people – need an exacting editor, versatile writer or experienced team leader, check it up. I got next.

And a huge thank you to everyone on the NBA TV and @nbaontnt.bsky.social production teams. You delivered high-quality, fan-first broadcasts on every occasion, from Media Day until the championship champagne ... and then all summer long. Every season. Y'all do incredible work. Truly an honor.

Much appreciation goes to Shaun Powell, Steve Aschburner & @johnschuhmann.bsky.social – along with @markgmedina.bsky.social, @mikecwright.bsky.social
& the great Sekou Smith (R.I.P.) – for grinding out column after column. Ladders and listicles forever!

Somebody's getting a steal in Michaela Gilmer, who's a lock to make your hiring decision look like genius. Shoutout to daysiders Jon Hartzell, LeMont Calloway & Khari Arnold, with a special nod to Jeff Case, who took the baton each morning to shine up our drying coat of paint.

Thanks to Steve Quintana, Eric Jackson and Michael Doyle for believing in me, and Kevin McCormack for setting our team up for success. You won't find a steadier, more meticulous group than Scott Wraight, Drew Packham, Lonny Krasnow, Dan McCarney and Matt Petersen.

After 7 seasons, a dream run with @tntsportsus.bsky.social ends September 30. Overseeing the gamenight newsdesk for NBA Digital was everything I'd hoped it could be, from that 1st season & Toronto seemingly(!) ending the Warriors dynasty on through OKC starting what could be the next one.

Great Hornets piece by Tom, and this is where he really starts cookin'

How Caitlin Cooper built a business and a community on Patreon “It was never that I didn’t belong, I just didn’t have anyone to belong with.”

I got interviewed about “Basketball, She Wrote” — as both a business & community

On why I chose Patreon, how paywalls can be protective, advice for women navigating sports media, & more:

“It was never that I didn’t belong, I just didn’t have anyone to belong with”

The whole thing, appropriately is just ... 🤌

Maybe its the #dadlife, but for me: "What kind of a*hole puts ketchup on a hot dog?" "A child, Richie."

Isn't that the 'play-by-play' era cutoff?

Would appreciate hearing more on this. Drop me a line when you can.

Never not funny that he wasn't even among the 200 draft media bios

I think they were flummoxed with Curry off the board after the yMinnesota double caused the slide. Coulda gone Brandon Jennings too. That man woulda been toast of the town with that 5th game double nickel.

And not even during a commercial!

lol I saw that and knew he was locked in off rip

The lede. The detail. The texture.

One journalism students can pin to the corkboard. 🫡

You don’t often get the chance to meet the moment with a game story. James did here — and delivered.

Put it in the Louvre. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The Lottery is locked, the Mavs are somehow holding the No. 1 pick and the
#NBADraft question is ...

Where is everyone not named Cooper Flagg expected to go?

Good thing the Consensus Mock has arrived!

Is there any other option? Ha. These playoffs >>>>>
