NEW: Manny Diaz to @AndyStaples on handling QB Darian Mensah transferring to Miami:
"My overriding emotion is gratitude, and I really mean that. I am thankful Darian Mensah came to Duke."
Diaz later added: "It's happened before and the best franchises respond. We talked to our team about when Kevin Durant left the Thunder. And you could argue in the dozen years since then, they're the best NBA franchise ever."
NBA announces that Prime is getting game 6 of both the Pistons and Spurs series at 7 and 9:30 EST Friday. Biggest non-NFL live game inventory in Amazon Prime history.
LeBron James, at age 41, would be far and away the No. 1 option on the Heat a full 12 years after he left. Which is ridiculous and remarkable and makes me quite sad.
