Wisdom is simply knowing the mind of God about a particular thing. As we commune with God throughout our day, He will give us wisdom, show us the way, and provide new ideas. Proverbs says that when we honor the Lord, it opens the door to wisdom in our life. So today, ask God for wisdom. Then, open your heart and expect to receive it in your day-to-day life.

Willson Contreras: "After Cora got released or fired, the guys got loose a little more, because I feel like the tension was gone." Why? "I don't know...When Alex wasn't in the dugout, the team, was like [exhale noise], like loose. But it doesn't matter. We have to play better."

I am so impressed by the Pistons' response from down 3-1. Cade was unbelievable. Defense was extraordinary. Tonight, everyone stepped up — Tobias Harris became prime KD, Duren had his best game, Jenkins was huge. Also, losing Franz was brutal for Orlando on both ends.

The endgame of competence is simple: you become so skilled, so resourceful, and so strategically embedded that whether it’s a company, a relationship, or a project, the rational move for everyone involved is to keep you, reward you, and bet on you, because losing you would cost them more than they’re willing to pay.

Wonder if that turnover will have the Flyers think about bringing Oliver Bonk in for Game 2. At the very least, Emil Andrae, but they've been considering Bonk for a while.

I don’t know why. I think Tampa gets it done tonight. They just grind and find ways. Love this Habs team tho. Fun as hell to watch. Going to be a hell of a game 7.

JJ Redick was asked about the key when it comes to playing through contact against the Thunder: "They don't foul, so the whistles aren't gonna be there. You accept that going in. They don't foul."

Orlando will fly home thinking about game 6 and not game 7. That believe me makes it hurt more than losing game 7 !

NBA Playoffs & Stanley Cup Playoffs: • Twin Cities… Timberwolves & Wild • Philadelphia… 76ers & Flyers Only 2 cities still have a chance to win BOTH the NBA Finals and Stanley Cup Final this season… Will either one get it done?

The Magic traded Tobias Harris for Brandon Jennings and Ersan İlyasova because Scott Skiles wanted to make the playoffs in response to ownership pressure and wanted to add veterans. They didn't make the playoffs then Skiles quit. Jennings put up 7 ppg for the Magic.

The Pistons finally found themselves and restored order. The team you saw in Game 7 was the one that won the East by 4 games. Daniss finally found his place alongside Cade. BUT ... if Franz had remained healthy, Orlando holds onto that 24-point G6 lead and advances.

Brandon Tanev shared that he was not happy with the way the season played out personally, but he plans to be better from the start next season. "It wasn't a year I anticipated or expected to have so, no." "For me, it's an understanding of what I do well & have always done well...being physical, playing hard, fast, doing the little things & being good in all three zones. I want to get back to that...understand what I need to do to help this team move forward & that's my mindset."

While it's only logical that Dobson will enter this series--his first game since April 11--on a pair with Struble, the two played only 45 minutes together at 5-on-5 this season. At least they had a 54% xgf during that time. Either way, not like he's going to spend the game there.

Sucks for both Philadelphia & Detroit that their 3-1 comebacks don't count because they play in the East. Nothing any Eastern Conference team has done actually matters since June 1998.

Darko Rajakovic, ahead of his team's Game 7, missing 2 starters: "We've gotta dig very deep. We've gotta find a way. If we lose the game tonight, there's no practice tomorrow, there is not another game tomorrow. So, we've gotta (find) our last energy tonight."

If Anthony Edwards and Ayo Dosunmu can play in Game 1 for Minnesota, that's a game-changer. Still obviously an uphill climb to beat San Antonio, but that would at least give the Wolves a puncher's chance. Massive update that both guys are questionable.

Part of loving and wanting what is best for a person is not letting them lie until they completely diminish everything they used to be.

Used to see H.S. pitchers live inside. Now it’s away, away, away… everyone sitting off the plate. Velocity is up—but nobody wants to come in? What changed? Afraid of contact? Afraid of mistakes? Or just can’t command it? Inside still matters.
