"If only this could have been a doubleheader at the American Airlines Center"...Silver and Engelbert definitely need to make this happen in the future!

Big Hornby fan. As you might imagine, being an Arsenal fan, I was quite excited to read Fever Pitch when I found out about it (I had just picked up High Fidelity, but bought Fever Pitch as well a soon as a read about the subject matter). I agree.. a fantastic read.

And cheers to you for breaking Passover at Tommy's Burger. With chili or wihtout? :D

Chili on the side because they put on too much (for me)

1. My wife and I have been to Nice Coffee, it's good! And 2. We need The Stein Line to do an anonymous GM survey to see how many would actually trade places with the Suns. Is it more than single-digits?

That Ishbia quote is pretty funny. Not sure what he's smoking but it must be good.

I'm excited to see the next generation taking over. There are a lot of likable teams left, aside from Dallas (sorry Mavs fans, but it's easy for me to root against Kyrie, Kidd, and Cuban). I started following the Nuggets more closely when I moved west, but if they don't make it to the finals, I'd be happy to see the Wolves or Thunder represent the West.

"I, for one, am just fine with a Round 2 that doesn't include Golden State... I understand that the casual fan might be thrown by the fact that we won't see Stephen Curry..."

This non-casual non-bandwagon GSW fan of the past 3 decades will always lament missed chances to see the once in a lifetime talent of Steph Curry. So while you pat yourself on the back for being clever, maybe don't assume we are not out here reading (a paid subscription.)

There's no rule or rulebook that says you have to agree with me.
