Yesterday, my daughter, Kyra, passed away peacefully after a 9 month and 11 day fight against one of the cruelest diseases I’ve ever seen up close. She was diagnosed with Brain Cancer, specifically Glioblastoma. I have felt all of your concern and love for these months and wasn’t ready to be anymore specific than I was.
Kyra was a 28-year-old young woman who loved deeply and who is impossible to describe in 280 characters. While her life got stolen from her, she handled these months with courage, poise, and resolve. And all I want is for no family to feel what we feel today. For no young person to suffer the way she did.
In lieu of flowers, if you are moved to make a memorial gift, please consider “The Kyra Fund” (https://t.co/4bl8cxV1Dt)
This fund will be used solely to research treatments for Glioblastomas.
@KevinOConnorNBA When’s the last time a team won the chip with their star being a BAD defender? I have never seen a defensive performance as bad as Luka in the finals last year, and now the Lakers are contenders? If I were to build a perfect defense around Luka it would look a lot like the Mavs
Highest Net Rating NBA history:
'96 Bulls: +13.4
'97 Bulls: +12.0
'17 Warriors: +11.6
'24 Celtics: +11.6
A lot of parity talk about the NBA while BOS tied for the 3rd highest net rating of all time & went 16-3 with a +8.3 net rating in the playoffs. DOMINANT season, full stop.
