BOOK THREAD:

1) This is my favorite story from A HOLLYWOOD ENDING. Do you remember a few years ago when the Lakers posted a photo of Will Smith at their facility? You can see it below. The trick, though, is to zoom in on Russell Westbrook (he's on the left).

The book comes out OCT. 21, but you can pre-order it now!
