Why do we have to wait one more day to enjoy another Knicks game?
Who would have thought, but turns out ballers also rest on weekends.
We don’t, so here’s another Bulletin presented by your very own.
On not looking too far amid the NBA Finals:
“One of the things that we preach is being present. In order to be present, you can’t think about the past, you can’t think about the future. For all of us as humans, that’s hard as heck to do.”
