Ja Morant lead the National Basketball Association in paint scoring. Ja. Morant. At 6'3", 174 pounds, Ja scored more points in the paint than Giannis, than Embiid, than Jokic, than everyone in the 2021-22 season!
This is for Raptors fans who supported Carlos Rogers, Milt Palacio, Loren Woods, Marcus Camby, Derrick Dial, Lamond Murray, Roko Ukic, Doug Christie, Nate Huffman, Robert Archibald, Dion Glover, Eric Montross, Jose Calderon, Voshon Lenard, Oliver Miller, Antonio Davis,
Bojan Bogdanovic hits the game-winner, reporter wants to ask her first question, and he says: "Let me hear the people" as he takes a step back to bask in the cheers of the Utah Jazz fans.

In this world of 24-hour sports coverage, no one knew a single thing about the Leonard-PG scenario. Refreshing that some things are able to stay beyond the reach of media.
This past summer, Marc Gasol was on the Mediterranean Sea, helping people on rafts who were risking their lives trying to get to Europe from Africa. This guy is much more than a basketball player. Video and story of the crisis here:
I remember Dwight jumping in some Instagram comments to defend KCP. When they got the trophy, every guy was each other's hype man. They were lead by superstars but the Lakers were still a team. That's how they got the most out of everyone and we're on the same page for 12 months.
Reminder that Celtics can't trade for Anthony Davis until Kyrie Irving opts out of his deal for next season. (Can't have two guys on "Rose Rule" / designated player contracts).

Raptors have to sign Vince Carter. Trying to repeat while also playing to get the franchise don his first ring is some good narrative for us media folk and pretty cool for the city.
Kyle Lowry got the trophy first, went to pass it back the owners' way and Masai Ujiri stopped him to give it to Kawhi Leonard. Impressive managing, Masai.
