Maya Moore walked away from the WNBA (in many ways, she was already among the greatest of all time) in the midst of her prime to help champion Jonathan Irons’s cause. He was freed today. We use the term “legend” liberally, but this is what it truly means.

@eric_nehm This is the only appropriate response to you pointing out Giannis's defensive weaknesses. 😂

Nikola Jokic had 14 assists, of which 5 went to Michael Porter Jr and 4 to Monte Morris. Six of Jokic's assists led to 3-pointers and another six to shots at the rim. He assisted half of Denver's baskets while on the floor tonight.

My sentiments exactly. The Liberty bench was out there doing trust falls when Sami Whitcomb drilled this pull-up 3. 😂

At Sloan, Daryl Morey discussed the flaws of the "distance travelled" stat, noting that many elite players rank low in this area. The best tend to know how to make high impact at minimal effort. Their efficient actions stem from both physical gifts and understanding of the game.

My first impression of watching LeBron in person for the first time is that he's playing half as hard as anyone else is. I don't mean that as an insult, he's just so damn good that he doesn't have to go all that hard to dominate a regular season game in March. Incredible.

Giannis finished with 49 points on 39 true shot attempts and 49% usage. He was 8/10 at the rim, 4/8 from 3, and 3/6 at the line. Only 8 of his 21 field goal attempts were assisted. His 4 assists came with just 1 dead-ball turnover. Sensational performance.

The NBA doubtless understands its business and fans better than its peers do. It recognizes that, rather than cannibalizing its product, social media and video use actually deepen fan engagement and investment. It's done a great job of helping its partners realize this, too.

Just a few months ago, Kristi Toliver and Sue Bird were squaring off as the starting point guards for the Mystics and Storm in the WNBA Finals. Now, both have new roles in the NBA with the Wizards and Nuggets. Fantastic.

Few things are more sobering than being on the phone with a 5th grader, who's home alone because her parents are essential workers and who's calling tech support on the 1st day of school because she and her younger siblings can't log into their Zoom classes. Such a sad situation.

Anthony Bourdain proclaimed immigrants as the “backbone” of the restaurant industry. As an immigrant myself with family members in the culinary world, I always appreciated Bourdain’s sentiments. May his spirit live on wherever soulful food is served. #RIP
