The more they talk about how the wolves are set to pick towns, the more I worry they won't.

Side note: when I hear Okafor talk I think of Andre the Giant in princess bride. "Anybody want a peanut?"

I just started watching so I am a few minutes behind but in that intro was that Russell dribbling around chairs? Dude that's old school I thought you only worked out against cones these days. Lol

I hear you. He has a kind of stilted speaking style (like he's trying a little too hard, or speaking past you rather than to you), but he's always seemed like a good sport. He's not as smooth as Stern, but what's impressed me about him is that he's incredibly smart and he knows the league front and back, top to bottom.

Bonus points: The league is getting rid of divisional finishes when seeding the playoffs. Good news.

I listened to him in an interview with I think it was Cowherd and Silver was engaging and smart as hell. He clearly has a vision for the league but really open to innovation.

Did you see his workout video? I imagine that's what I'd look like if the rim was only 8'

What video? Damn, I'm following tweets on one computer and trying to illegally stream feeds on my laptop without getting porn ads popping up every 20 seconds. I think I've got a Russian pre-draft show.

Wait, it's starting!!!!
