Clear enough for you? Haralabob “Bob” Voulgaris is a toxic lowlife a-hole, and he's unsurprisingly causing friction with nearly the entire Mavs' organization. Beefing with LUKA DONCIC?!!

I’m Jewish, and the slur Meyers Leonard used has no place in this world. But forgiveness does have a place. And our insatiable desire to cancel people and end their lives is gross. Meyers - like all of us - isn’t perfect and we should give him a chance to prove this really was verbal diarrhea and he had no idea what it meant. Have some room in your heart for forgiveness.

Giannis and James Harden have escalated their apparent dislike of each other to a very clear hatred of each other. Why can’t we be friends? I spend much of this episode trying to get these guys - and fanbases - to appreciate one another. To recognize that we have two all-time greats. Who both pass the ball. Who both defend. And who both are supremely skilled. Nothing wrong with a little animosity and competitive rivalry. But let’s stop acting like children & recognize greatness. Real recognize real. Stick around for my MVP musings - my top 10 rankings, and why my MVP endorsement might surprise you—ok it’s LeBron.
