The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

“Pace” can be fast, slow, medium, and a gazillion other speeds.

Please understand this.

“Playing with pace” is not telling anyone anything.

Insert the word “fast” or a synonym there-of to correctly describe what too many basketball people butcher.

Trail Blazers say guard Scoot Henderson sustained a left hamstring tear during an off-season workout this week. Henderson will begin rehabilitation and is expected to return to basketball activities in 4-8 weeks.

Tweet FROM SHAMS: Just in: Houston Rockets' Fred VanVleet has suffered a torn ACL, sources tell ESPN. A devastating, potentially season-ending loss for the Rockets with their starting point guard and leader. https://t.co/Qhf0V58DwR

I’m at the house tonight with three brilliant women. My wife and my two nieces have different skin tones than mine. It upsets me when I hear anyone degrade women because of appearance or heritage.

It is ignorance driven by fear from eons of misinformation and abuse of power.

Do better.

I’m spinning a Soulful Sunday night set tomorrow from 7 pm to midnight. I hope you can tap in.

Had a good quick trip to L.A.

We ate well, went record shopping, saw a dope show at Hollywood Bowl.

You ever been ill the day of what is supposed to be a quick vacation getaway?

You want to have good energy but your light is dim?

A coach with player personnel thoughts is fine.

But that should be it. Let him or her have their thoughts.

It’s been my observation that when coaches step out of their lane, they are often wrong.

Saturday night! I’m spinning an all Earth, Wind & Fire set. Deep! Like five hours worth!

Egg Foo Yung should be on every diner menu.

The 8.7 earthquake is tied for the eighth most powerful quake in world history.

Heed all warnings. Tsunami buoys show this is real.

I just Shazam anything I like that I hear. No matter where I go. So there were six Shazam’s on this trip.

The plan is to spin tomorrow night. I keep adding to my library of music.

This extended Vegas trip yielded a half dozen songs that I want to play. I will craft a set around those cuts to make up the Soulful & Funky Show for Saturday night. 8 pm start.

I'd love to see you in the virtual space.

I’m honestly a tad conflicted on Jonathan Kuminga.

As much as I see the talent, and ability to score, he’s a poor perimeter shooter w/ a limited “feel”.

His ceiling is high but I’m not certain he reaches it.

Although a TAD conflicted, I’d be OUT on pursuing him.

Flour Dust Pizza in Roseville. I’m a fan!

Fresh everything. San Marzano sauce! They make their own Italian sausage.

Not bad. I didn’t get a shake but I’ll try next time.

The Kings were 12-8 in games after the Fox trade where Sabonis and Monk both played.

That’s a .600 winning percentage which equates to 49 wins. (Would have tied w/ Minnesota for 6th in West).

Chucky Hepburn is someone I hope the Kings bring in for a workout. I think his relentless defensive approach would be appreciated by Doug Christie. #NBADraft hoopobsession.com/Hepburn.html

We have no time to wallow in the mire. - A Tribe Called Quest.

Kaluma & Martin are NBA players.

No huge takeaways from the Reese's College All-Star game. I thought Zach Freemantle played well. He's interesting to me. 6'9" 225 PF that is just below the cutoff point for deep shooting (giving some hope he might be acceptable one day). He can finish above the rim, knows how to play. #NBADraft
