This dude tells a great story though. I read through the whole thing and laughed out loud several times.

That 2009 Laker team was a great team to watch and learn about ball movement, passing, and how to maintain an offensive equilibrium between an all-time scorer (Kobe), top-flight threats in the low post (Pau), and terrific cutters and athletes (LO, Ariza).

I'm a fan of Embiid, both on and off the court. That Sixers team has tons of potential, and Embiid should already be in the discussion of maybe being the best player in the game, along with Lebron, Giannis and Durant.

If he didn't use a ghost writer, he definitely has a future as a columnist. Great read.

Awesome read. Joel reminds me of Shaq. Such a fun guy to be around but straight business on the court.
