Ah yes, The Cleveland Cavaliers. Who could forget, two games ago, when I opined that I covered a crap team? Well, for now, they are not crap and the proletariat rejoices at their bout of goodness. Keeping with that, here is a video sure to make anyone smile. At least we know how they killed time in Mexico City.

I don't even want to continue past this point. What a glorius performance, but I will.

Boom. I sort of kind of called a little bit of my shot.
Brian Shaw coaches the Nuggets. He seems like a really good coach, and given how the Byron thing went, he might have been fun to have. Wait..... remember when everyone reported he had the job and congratulated him?

Thousands of people probably. In the history of time, maybe millions? I mean, I dunno, it's pretty common.
All in all, I think we did pretty well. We talked about basketball and everyone was super nice and respectful of other people and stuff.
