That article about Livers is interesting. I didn't know he was so old (27). He's not hurting us out there, and he brings decent size and 3-point shooting. Not bad for a 9th or 10th man.

So Portland, Minny and SA this week. No Wemby on Saturday, not sure when Allen gets back for us. Can we go 2-1? Can't look past Portland who's playing well. Minny's given us problems with their size, particularly Randle. He can bully everyone on the team.

It's too bad because if we had held on to beat Atlanta, we would have had the potential to win 4 or 5 of these games in this tough 5-game stretch. Gave away a game we had in the bag.

That Atlanta loss was the toughest loss in a long time for me for a couple reasons:

1. The way we lost was just tough…blowing a 21 point lead in the 4th Q is brutal

2. More importantly…I actually care about this team and have gotten invested in the outcome. I spent the entire last season with no expectations…it’s nice(and also painful) to care again.

But KD says we aren't allowed to have expectations!!

Pretty impressive considering we've only won 9 games total.

I'm not a sneaker-head at all, but I am happy to see Book getting a second edition shoe because it's another sign of respect and popularity around the league.

I think it was reported that the Book 1s were the most worn in the WNBA and like top 3 in the NBA or something like that. Makes sense too, as someone who has a couple pairs, they are really comfortable, especially after you break them in. Got a pair that’s apart of my regular day beater rotation.

The black book 2s look beautiful. Fully expect them sell out, gonna have to probably get on eBay or StockX smh.

What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton
