Kevin Durant calls out Stephen A. Smith
“I’ve never seen him anywhere but on TV talking s— about players. … He’s a clown to me. He’s always been a clown. You can write that, too.” 😳

"The Cavs are sending Donovan Mitchell to the Knicks in a trade that includes Precious Achiuwa, Bojan Bogdanović, Jericho Sims, and 3 first round draft picks"
Teamed up with @FDSportsbook on a big boost for tonight’s Final Four games… if you’re like me and you think it will be Iowa and South Carolina in Sunday’s Finals, we bumped that parlay to +120.
—Iowa beats UConn
—So. Carolina beats NC State

One of my favorite stories to write: get good access, observe, and bring fans right inside the action.

Interesting @NYTimes article on a wellness effort that actually follows the latest science. Their metaphor of a "perception box" is a good one (though all metaphors have limits). 1/ nytimes.com/2023/02/23/bus…
@dana_fdn@kaytsukel This organization helped make tremendous and historical inroads in neuroscience. It has led to many new advances that are helping tens of thousands.
We honor the legacy of the Dana Alliance, a member organization of eminent neuroscientists from around the world dedicated to public outreach about brain research, which launched Brain Awareness Week in 1996. dana.org/article/dana-a…

Joe Biden traded a guy called “The Merchant of Death,” for a WNBA player. And left a US marine behind in Russian prison in the process. Biden’s a complete and total disaster on everything.
@BillSimmons I’d rather give up Barrett than Topin. No thanks to gimpy Levine. We just went through Kemba. How about Rozin to the Knicks for Topin. They don’t want Barrett’s contract.
The Warriors were called for 7 travels last night, the most in an single game in history.
Luka carried the ball on every single post up and it wasn’t called once.

Facing a fourth-and-inches at midfield, Rutgers goes with a jet sweep out of the shotgun and gets stopped. Feels like severe case of overthinking. A QB sneak under center would have done the job just fine.
Here's my annual season-ending report card for Rutgers coach Greg Schiano. As you'd imagine, he won't be hanging it on the fridge. nj.com/rutgersfootbal…
That’s a wrap on the 2021-22 Michigan men’s basketball season. Oh, I’ll have more stories in the coming days and weeks, but this season is in the books.
A writer without readers is a diarist. Thanks to all who read my stuff this year. I’m confident some of it wasn’t terrible!
