LAMM AT LARGE: It's Time For The Next Generation In The NBA

The NBA playoffs are going great. That’s what I take from the highlights I’ve seen.

China threatened to drop the NBA from its TV broadcast. That meant the NBA losing millions, maybe billions, of dollars. James would lose major deals as well.

Not to put myself on a pedestal, but principle before enjoyment is something I believe in.

So let Steph Curry, Ja Morant, Joel Embiid, Kevin Durant and others shine. I miss it but not enough to sell my soul.
