"They recovered 126 grams of marijuana,” said Aberdeen Police Lieutenant William Reiber, “In addition to that there was a brief case that contained 92,164 dollars of U.S. currency along with a ledger that contained language which is consistent with someone involved in the sale and distribution of narcotics." The ledger was of names of people of who owed money along with baggies for individual packaging of a quarter pound of marijuana.

Jesus man. A Hampton inn? With 92k cash?

Wasn’t it a Hampton inn that he knocked the keyboard over when he played for us? He was wasted I think.

As last night was focused on the Elite 8, I'm catching up on some League Pass games from last night.

One thing I can't get out of my head... if Ben Simmons ever gets anything close to a half decent jump shot or go to move, this will be his league and his league alone. But it looks sooooo bad at times that I struggle to believe it will ever reach that point. He might ultimately be an other worldly talent limited to a semi-regular all-star due to a lack of said jump shot.

It would not even be fair if he and Giannis learn how to shoot.
But thing about Simmons is that he is above average in efficiency despite zero outside shot and despite his awful free throw percentage and above all he already is one of best defenders in whole league. 103 defensive rating , 3,3 DBPM.
He has positive real plus minus in both categories as well.

Here is the real question no one is asking...

Are you more likely to buy a pair of Big Baller Brand shoes or a pair of Pizza Hut Pie Tops?

Depending on who the Celtics matchup with in the 1st round, The Celtics could possibly be going down 1st round.

Crazy season.
Spurs can be eliminated from playoffs or have home court adventage in first round .

Wizards were viewed as 3rd best team on East, can be 8# now.
Everybody wants to be 7# to face Irving-less and Hayward-less Celtics.

Okc has worst record with Paul George and Melo than last year.

Donovan MItchell said that key reason of his success is playing time that he got and chance to play through mistakes ( take notes every Magic coach last 5 years ).

Warriors low key sucks without Curry.

I can see Rockets winning it all this year. Too much weapons + Harden and Paul

Entering playoffs, Rockets look primed for title - but let's not forget that was outlook of 2010 Magic once too.

It is surprising indeed just how bad Warriors look like without Curry - or it might be they let their guard down preparing for real games ahead.

Still, there's more drama in bottom-feeder derby matches - who's gonna bring worst lineup to finish the game and who can miss more shots. It is not comical, it is sad. I understand that NBA is run much more like guild with no true competition except at the top (no team is demoted to lower leagues), but what we are seeing now has to stop. Demotion is not cure for all problems (there's potential deals between clubs to keep them out of demotion zone or fixing games), but it is a lot better than this.
