It's one of the worst contacts in the league. No thanks.

In truth, this isn't a terrible episode (and Ezra occasionally hits it out of the park), but the title sent me for a loop.

Is this what "small government" looks like?

The rags-to-riches narrative has been overblown for some time. It's far more the exception than the rule. I believe the number of children of NBA players in the league is currently a double-digit percentage.

Nobody wants to max him when his contract expires

Players aren't going to the Lakers because they have limited salary flexibility and aging stars, and playing with LeBron guarantees players are under constant scrutiny. They still might get Derozan.

Typically, there's a different mesh on the shoulder panel for sleeve jerseys, but I'm not sure if that's true for Noches jerseys. The fakes I've seen of this type usually have facsimile signatures on the back too.

Even the "consensus" guy is the wrong choice most of the time.

Excited for this guy. I was torn between him, Sarr, and Clingan. Sarr seems like a headache though. We're better off.

The irony is that student loan forgiveness is more likely to benefit middle and lower class Americans who will, in turn, buy more stuff. Consumer spending is like 3/4 of the US economy.

Swingman Soul jerseys typically have the player name and a year on the jock tag. Shape is off in the shoulders. The NBA logos have slight variations and inaccuracies too.
