Also: Isn’t it ironic, gruntingly cretinous, we’ve seen this story before, benching Draymond, is Bob Ryan right about threes ruining basketball, Smart tactics, a unified theory of ugly blowouts, next-level NBA thinkers, interesting whistles, it’s not easy being green, rendering the first three quarters irrelevant, incredibly flip-floppy, rookie wriggle room, not conducive to good content, New Zealand v New Zealand A, nominative determinism, JL’s Big Get Square, shut up Bandanna Man, the lion and the butterfly, shoplifted summer book club, managing upwards, Knights in shining tracksuits, trojan hood ornaments and who does number three work for.
