New and unknown adventures await, though I'll be sharing that familiar #ViewfromCouch from fresh angles. Stay tuned. In the interim, if you – or your people – need an exacting editor, versatile writer or experienced team leader, check it up. I got next.

And a huge thank you to everyone on the NBA TV and @nbaontnt.bsky.social production teams. You delivered high-quality, fan-first broadcasts on every occasion, from Media Day until the championship champagne ... and then all summer long. Every season. Y'all do incredible work. Truly an honor.

Much appreciation goes to Shaun Powell, Steve Aschburner & @johnschuhmann.bsky.social – along with @markgmedina.bsky.social, @mikecwright.bsky.social
& the great Sekou Smith (R.I.P.) – for grinding out column after column. Ladders and listicles forever!

Somebody's getting a steal in Michaela Gilmer, who's a lock to make your hiring decision look like genius. Shoutout to daysiders Jon Hartzell, LeMont Calloway & Khari Arnold, with a special nod to Jeff Case, who took the baton each morning to shine up our drying coat of paint.

Thanks to Steve Quintana, Eric Jackson and Michael Doyle for believing in me, and Kevin McCormack for setting our team up for success. You won't find a steadier, more meticulous group than Scott Wraight, Drew Packham, Lonny Krasnow, Dan McCarney and Matt Petersen.

Maybe its the #dadlife, but for me: "What kind of a*hole puts ketchup on a hot dog?" "A child, Richie."

Isn't that the 'play-by-play' era cutoff?

Would appreciate hearing more on this. Drop me a line when you can.

Never not funny that he wasn't even among the 200 draft media bios

I think they were flummoxed with Curry off the board after the yMinnesota double caused the slide. Coulda gone Brandon Jennings too. That man woulda been toast of the town with that 5th game double nickel.
