Fun to watch and at a time when it’s challenging to dream big dreams, it is nice to witness.

Stop using saddle soap on your leather. If you want it to be a legacy piece for your grandchildren, do not use it. As someone who routinely has to clean historic saddles that crap RUINS leather over time.

If Jimmy isn't back healthy for game 3 I am worried for the Warriors. The Nuggets have me watching through my fingers and look like they need a vacation. That means the Pacers are my last hope for a good playoffs run.

Sending Jimmy Butler all the good vibes. Getting injured from playing hard during the playoffs is devastating.
