Introspection, introspection, introspection.

@HPbasketball That they don’t realize this and still refuse to build around him is maddening.

[Manu Amara @ManuAmara]

@realJLive @mdorans_ This is all true, with an undeniable caveat. This was meant to be the Knicks best shot at a title fielding a good team with great chemistry, led by a demon guard in a temporarily weakened East. And they did it! Gotta celebrate all summer, and get pragmatic at training camp.

[Manu Amara @ManuAmara]

Two key reasons this is a hugely positive move:
- Kawhi forces the youngest team in the league to elevate its professionalism, mental toughness and preparation.

- Kawhi still has commanding gravity, and is the critical mass that attracts meaningful FAs and upgrade trades.

This Kawhi trade is a bet on Scottie being able to be a first option for larger portions of the season. They are going to load manage Kawhi, this is an opportunity for Scottie to really improve as a primary focus of an offence

@MUSICANDBUILDS When a business owner suggests tax cuts to its employees, consider that the resulting increase to take home pay enables the employer to vector average salaries downward, lessening overall labor costs.

@provisionalidea @donnelly_b oh ok so we're going to just bypass the term pluralism to use a melting pot example and stamp it with the reason the most ineffectual organization in history lays its roots there.

[Manu Amara @ManuAmara]

@Betsycashmoney You can’t conflate inability to win against a competitive team with disaster, especially with this version of the Cavs stacking 1 and 2 options that haven’t won at the highest level. It’s an even flimsier argument compared to a potential top seed collapse.

[Manu Amara @ManuAmara]

@BilgeEbiri The inability (or sheer unwillingness) to understand the creative passion and will to know the bounds of ability to execute at the highest level while envisioning it as an arc that ends optimally, is a surefire sign of the inexperience of those misconceiving it as something else.

@cheo_coker Zhao just orchestrated what is likely a timeless and meditative piece on grief and about how we can find beauty and meaning within by processing it through art, and here we have the lowest common denominator doing its worst to latch on to the coattails of greatness.

[Manu Amara @ManuAmara]

@ThethoughtL @Nithya_Shrii The extent of capability of authentically good people to reach and exceed a level of aggression, viscousness, domination over sociopaths is grossly underestimated. Good people tend to lead content lives, and the selfishness in that prevents any sacrifice for the greater good.

[Manu Amara @ManuAmara]

End of an era.

The Toronto Raptors have waived Chris Paul.

[Manu Amara @ManuAmara]

@JustEsBaraheni The draft is vital, so that’s a non-starter. Incentivizing winning for bottom rung teams is an interesting idea: 1) no advantage to tanking, and 2) gets those teams to be competitive against good to great teams, preserving integrity at the top rungs.

[Manu Amara @ManuAmara]

@Betsycashmoney A) Less a comment on your response, and more towards the league "irritation" about a nonsense topic easily overshadowed by major anti-competitive issues.

B) Hate leads to....suffering.
