One thing I enjoyed very much is that when I tried to type the word "Pollyanna" my phone tried to autocorrect it to "Prolly Anna," which definitely sounds more like me

3️⃣ Things I Noticed on League Pass

πŸšͺ The Cavs, an opener
⬇️ OG Anunoby, downhill
πŸ›Ÿ Yanic Konan Niederhauser, lively

Cleveland mostly got its ass kicked by Boston but boy did the Cavs open the game with a beautifully-constructed and executed set.

Jayson Tatum's return is just the beginning: 'The things that I want to accomplish are still in front of me' After a 10-month layoff, the Celtics star returned with a near triple-double in a Boston victory to begin another chapter in his brilliant career.

Y! Sports' Ben Rohrbach was on the scene at TD Garden on Friday to take in Tatum's first game back β€” an outing 10 months in the making, and one that makes an already excellent Celtics team all the more dangerous: sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/...

Jayson Tatum’s Return Was a Celtics Dreamβ€”and a Nightmare for Everyone Else Boston was very good without Tatum. With him, it can absolutely win the title.

Hell Yeah, Tim Meadows Specifically on Peacemaker, but also just in general.

Know what else rules? Searching for the Tim Meadows clip you're looking for, finding a blog post headlined "Hell Yeah, Tim Meadows," and seeing that it was written by your old pal @briancgrubb.bsky.social. www.vulture.com/article/tim-...

Early returns on James Harden, Jonathan Kuminga and the biggest trade deadline moves It's been a month since the trade deadline, so let's check in on how some of the bigger names are performing on their new teams.

At Y! Sports: A month removed from the 2026 NBA trade deadline, let's get caught up on how some familiar faces are doing in new places, in what many are calling "the only piece of writing published on the Internet today featuring Luke Kennard layups." yhoo.it/40dgnho

Should we be concerned about Cade Cunningham and the Pistons in the postseason? Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs highlighted Detroit's limitations in a changing environment, routing the Pistons 121-106 Thursday night.

This week, on Y!

I agree, and when I got to the point of his podcast where he said that, I felt like the mechanic coming out from underneath your car, wiping my hands on a rag and going, "Well, there's your issue"

Which, if the charge being levied is "continuing to lean on the vets isn't the best thing for the team," that's one thing. If it's "Russ is out there playing selfishly to the detriment of everyone else," I think the strong reaction makes WAY more sense.

But again: he could have just said that!

YouTube video by Sactown Sports 1140 Responding to Russell Westbrook's Comments Directed At Matt George and the Sacramento Media

Watching this post-presser podcast (www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIwH...) the guy he went hardest at said his best guess at what Russ was responding to what the suggestion that him continuing to play is of no benefit to the Kings, and that there's no value in him "going out there to chase milestones."

Kalshi employees "kind of understand that without the tweets and the streamers and all of the social-media stuff that the traders do for them, usually just for free, their marketing would be a lot harder," said Jack Campion, 20, a junior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Kalshi affiliate.
In September, Kalshi briefly signed up a 15-year-old videogame streamer who goes by vertid online to promote its brand on X as an affiliate.
A week later, Kalshi ended the partnership.
"Yo brother, legal team confirmed that we can't work with minors rn," a Kalshi employee wrote to the user in messages reviewed by the Journal. "Kinda sad tbh."

That's a *hell* of a pass with only a couple of seconds left after getting in the air by Jalen Suggs. Just such a difference-maker for Orlando when he's on the floor.

What will Jayson Tatum's return look like? Are the Celtics the team to beat in the East? The NBA title race just got a whole lot more interesting with the Celtics star coming back this season.

Some real "who will prove they are too good to still be playing at Summer League" vibes to Jazz-Wizards. Watching Brice Sensabaugh intently.

The Hornets walked into Boston, looked a top-six defense in the eyes, drilled 19 3s, had 26 assists against four turnovers, blew their doors off and walked out.

Would you like to know more about the scorching-hot Charlotte Hornets? @tomhaberstroh.bsky.social and I have you covered:
