Christopher Nolan has long cited Michael Mann’s HEAT (1995) as a major inspiration for THE DARK KNIGHT (2008).

The influence is easy to see in the film’s grounded crime drama, city-scale storytelling, and unforgettable opening bank heist.

Lamelo is bad value but trale lining up for bridges is hilarious

[r/CharlotteHornets @HornetsReddit]

Miles Bridges is getting "a ton of interest" around the league, per @ShamsCharania.

"They already got some trade calls in on [Naz Reid], but the plan is right now to keep him. This is a team that could still shift the roster around a little bit if they want."

[Josh Hart @joshhart]

🔥🔥🔥 Whoever has ears let them hear

[𝐹𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑛 @francistennn]

the Melo trade is interesting bc the early career team often absorbs a guard’s growing pains and volatility, then the next team gets the peak: Nash, Kidd, Billups, Baron, Arenas, Harden, Dragic, Bibby, Lowry, Hali (kinda), Brunson, etc all had this arc to some degree

[Danny Chau @dannychau]

I wrote about the LaMelo trade. Think this was a big reason why the Wolves didn't waste any time in getting it done. https://t.co/cbO5tJi6F9

[Wolves Lead @TWolvesLead]

"From what I've heard, Anthony Edwards is over the moon about this deal [for LaMelo Ball]"

[WBW @HUCosell]

Every time LaMelo becomes a national topic, I realize how little they’ve watched him. Every. Time.

[mbg @gloless]

Nah 1 first and 3 swaps for a team you’ll never be better than is crazy

[Billie Payne @HeKnowsBall24]

Knicks just won it all with a small ball team don’t listen to noise

[500 🏎 @Kameron_Hay]

So when Lamelo Ball inevitably wins 50+ games this season in Minnesota because he’s actually playing with high level vets and a competent front office, is the “he doesn’t play winning basketball” narrative going to die?

[ESPN Insights @ESPNInsights]

LaMelo Ball is 1 of just 3 players to average 20+ PPG and 7+ APG in each of the last five seasons, alongside Luka Dončić and Nikola Jokić.

[Billie Payne @HeKnowsBall24]

Even mentioning Houston Denver or the lakers as contenders is disrespectful to the game of basketball

[Run It Back @RunItBackFDTV]

"There's going to be a lot of top-10 plays coming out of LaMelo Ball and Anthony Edwards... I don't know if it makes them better than Houston, Denver, Lakers, Spurs & OKC."

@ChandlerParsons says Minnesota has more moves to make 🗣️

[Justin Bales @BalesSJustin]

The Charlotte Hornets were doing literally EVERYTHING right in their rebuild, and they just undid all of it with that LaMelo trade

What in the world are they thinking? Lol. Even if you don't like Ball, you just got very little value for him. Awful, awful deal

[Billie Payne @HeKnowsBall24]

@CK_3108 Acuff going to ball tho

Hornets kings nets pelicans don’t care about basketball

This fat fuck knows nothing

[Get Up @GetUpESPN]

Kawhi Leonard to Detroit? 👀

@WindhorstESPN weighs in on the potential move 🏀

[The Hood Therapist @OhhMar24]

Hornets really had Melo, B Miller, Kon Knueppel, Miles Bridges and Moses Diabete winning every game after the All-Star break and giving the team culture + identity. The first time in the teams history. This LaMelo trade is just confusing

[NBARetweet @RTNBA]

The Timberwolves potential starting 5 👀
