Jonathan Tjarks and I became friends while working at SB Nation in 2012. I cherish the nights we spent watching basketball together.

I wrote about what Tjarks' friendship meant to me, and the towering legacy of kindness he leaves behind. Rest easy, buddy

Russell Westbrook retires from NBA after 18 seasons https://t.co/ArRs0Z4iKl

The Bears simply have to score 30+ every game this season, and for the first time in my life I actually think that's possible

[Brad Biggs @BradBiggs]

#Bears S Coby Bryant underwent knee surgery and he will be sidelined 4-6 months per Coach Ben Johnson. Hope is he can return at the end of the season.

[Ricky O'Donnell @SBN_Ricky]

@finleykuehl I like it. Always thought it was weird that he fell out of the OKC playoff rotation. He should actually have a role in Atlanta because he's more of a scorer than their other wing options. He would have been great for any team at that price.

What sneaky-good NBA offseason moves did I forget on this list?

@TA1297 I had the Knicks letting him go as one of my worst moves of the offseason last week. It's a great addition for Boston if he can stay healthy. League-best offensive rebounder is perfect for all the threes they are going to chuck. I could see the Celtics being the No. 1 seed.

[Ricky O'Donnell @SBN_Ricky]

@ChiCityBrian I like both those. Simons is good in a vacuum but I wonder if this is the best fit for him, Philly has scorers and they need dirty work guys. Agreed on THJ to Miami. He's still an elite shooter and lord knows they need that badly

A WNBA record 16 straight games with 20+ points for Kelsey Mitchell.

What a baller.

[Ricky O'Donnell @SBN_Ricky]

Clark is getting every little ticky tack foul called on the Sky. Refs not allowing much physicality in this first half

[Ricky O'Donnell @SBN_Ricky]

Sky in a zone for some reason and guess what the Fever are dicing it up

[Ricky O'Donnell @SBN_Ricky]

Flagrant-2. Carrington tossed. Electric stuff.

[Ricky O'Donnell @SBN_Ricky]

Carrington just absolutely rocked Sophie Cunningham on a fastbreak layup, being reviewed for a flagrant foul, you're going to see that one replayed a million times later today

[Ricky O'Donnell @SBN_Ricky]

Sky jumbotron immediately cuts to a lady poppin' a trans rights shirt in the stands after Sophie gets decked

[Ricky O'Donnell @SBN_Ricky]

DiJonai Carrington with the and-one through Caitlin Clark, then rips a corner three in her face in a 'hand down, man down' situation. No surprise the Sky look a lot more feisty since Carrington has returned from injury.

[Ricky O'Donnell @SBN_Ricky]

@LakerCj Read my whole blurb. I said I'm still pretty high on the Lakers this year and Kessler could easily prove me wrong, they just don't have any real margin for error left. This team has to get it done because they don't have any other outs.
