On Open Run, Jason Kidd tells me there was one game in March that completely turned the Mavericks’ defense around - they went from ranking 23rd in the NBA before that night, to 1st in the NBA for the rest of the season after it

Kidd, laughing, says "he (kyrie) gave away too much information"

To me this interview is more evidence that there is more that goes on behind the scenes than we realize. Part of the "Kidd is hands off" thought comes from that Kidd feels no need to tell anyone what happens when the cameras are off.

Paul Pierce is trippin, LOL.

I think anyone has to be trippin to go on that show,

but I'm actually on board with what he said. Mid playoff run is not the time to discuss rankings.

Thankfully Dirk has always been one of the most humble guys in the league. Never made things about himself. Always praised others.

He is top 500 in North America if he's still Grandmaster.

An incredible feat truthfully.

I asked P.J. Washington what he loves most about playing for his hometown Mavs:

“Just the way the city embraces me. Everybody’s supportive, everybody’s there for me each and every game…It’s just been all love since I got here. I’d give anything for this team and this organization, and it’s just great to have that same energy from the fans as well.”

No clue about stuff like this. How much time does it take to reach that level/stay on that level?

A lot of time, that’s for sure.

A top notch internet connection helps a ton, too. Like, way better than average.

Typically to be grandmaster in overwatch, you're a professional level player and could theoretically try out for an overwatch team. Those dudes play at least 6-8 hours a day.

Once you get to that level in Overwatch, it's pretty easy to maintain (think 1-2 hours a day at the most as long as you're still good enough to be there). But getting to that level is a big grind. Luka being grandmaster while also being a professional NBA player is insane.

Fisheye lense helps but Luka looks like a giant human being. Gets me every single time I see him standing next to other players. For some reason he looks bigger than most players that are listed at 6'9/6'10 and obviously far bigger than players that are listed at 230.
