I think they can handle a Nerf dart.

These days? I’m not so sure. That would send some into rest management.

Speaking of that, it's getting hard to watch the Jazz when their best players aren't playing. Even if they're a lottery team this year, I at least want to watch getting closer to a reliable rotation.

I guess they're hurt, and it's not rest, but I just wish they would be healthy. Markkanen, Kessler, Keyonte George.

I want them to play as many games as possible, heading into the draft lottery. Try to figure out the strengths and weaknesses, and how they can be used.

I also think George either has good shooting games, or assist games, but rarely both. The goal for next year would be to see if he can do both in the same game.

I never thought I'd post something positive about the Bulls. But that is a great tweet. Every character of it.

I was wondering whether Diar really did scream 36 times.

This says she did.

A 60 percent shooter on the Mavericks made two free throws to win the game.

He went 2/3. He made the first two and missed the last one.

Not impressive because he missed one.

Mike Conley Jr. is the worst free throw shooter in sports.

Mike Conley Jr., you've got to make your free throws.

Missing the second one was bad. But the last free-throw he was supposed to miss because it was the only way to get a rebound and make a three. But if he had made the second free throw, they would’ve been down by two and a tip in would send it to overtime.

Rudy Gobert and Mike Conley Jr., you've got to make your free throws.
