Stranger things have happened in the NBA. For example, the absurdity of the Boston Celtics letting go of Jaylen Brown for Paul f'n George. I mean, we went from having Giannis Antetokounmpo to Playoff P/Pandemic P! Gross. My friends are telling me it's a shitty deal, and I don't want to believe them because I AM IN DENIAL.

I consider Michael Jordan my greatest of all time, but in terms of awards, records, championships, medals, and the fact that MJ had to miss several seasons because of retirement, you can say that LeBron James is the optimal model for a professional career.

Jimmy Alapag is back in the PBA, and I think he arrived at exactly the right time for the NLEX Road Warriors.

Okay. So something happened in the Ateneo tragedy again, which is kind of positive, in my opinion.
