Hey NBA Fans, |
A veteran NBA name who has been in the league for years appears to be approaching a major crossroads. The three-time champion may soon have to make one of the biggest calls of his career, and it isn’t going to be easy. Elsewhere, an unexpected report from around the league has a major section of the fanbase concerned. |
Let’s tip things off… |

Are Championships Won by Home-Grown Cores Inherently Greater Than Those Won by Superteams? |
|
|
|
Yesterday’s Result: 66% of you believe sustaining an elite performance level over a decade-plus is far harder than having a short ‘peak’ phase, and that should carry more weight when ranking an all-time great. |

Your K-Cups Sat in a Warehouse for Months. Taste It? |
|
|
Here's why grocery store pods taste flat no matter which brand you grab: coffee's flavor comes from delicate oils that start evaporating right after roasting. Store-bought K-Cups spend months in warehouses and trucks before they ever hit your Keurig — and some big brands deliberately over-roast so you won't notice the staleness. |
Angelino's, a family-owned Los Angeles roastery, skips all of it. They roast, grind, and pack their own pods, then ship within days of roasting — never months. Compatible with all Keurig® brewers, from 39¢ a cup, with 50+ flavors from Breakfast Blend to Jamaican Me Crazy. New customers get 15% off their first order — no code, no subscription required. |

On January 6, 2005, Richard Hamilton set a league record by leading the Detroit Pistons in scoring with 14 points against the Memphis Grizzlies. Now, what’s unique about that, you may ask? Well, Hamilton sank 0-for-10 from the field that night. He scored all his points from a 14-for-14 performance at the free-throw line. The strange stat line made Hamilton the only player in history to lead his team in scoring without making a single field goal. |
"I remember it a lot," the three-time All-Star told The Athletic in 2022 about his weird record. "As a scorer, you need to see the ball go in. To be able to lead the team in scoring with just free throws… it was insane. |
