Thank You, Kawhi
It’s okay. Take a deep breath. Don’t panic. There is no need to panic. At 1:54AM ET this morning, it was announced that Kawhi Leonard is joining the Los Angeles Clippers. About a minute later, we found out that Paul … Continue reading

NBA Finals, Game 5: Too Much Talk
I don’t really feel like writing about this game. Not because the Raptors lost by one point and have to go back to Oakland for a Game 6, but because of all the chatter around it. It’s just been so … Continue reading
