This is fun and friendly basketball nerdery talking hoops topics past, present and future.In my spare time when I am not playing basketball, talking basketball or watching basketball I'm a Dad to two young boys and a dog, a husband and a renovation contractor in Guelph, Ontario (aka the Royal City).
After watching Demar Derozan put a dagger through the Atlanta Hawks we needed to talk about his evolution and the incredible season he is having.
But also, there's other drama in the NBA even after the trade deadline and All-Star game have passed;
- Lebron put the Lakers on notice after not trading Westbrook
- The Knicks and Kemba Walker agreed he will sit the rest of the year
