ICE raided my sister’s home this morning. Her 3 month old was screaming as they pushed her to the ground and kept her separated from him. After searching her apartment room by room and ignoring her attempts to get information, they realized they were at the wrong address. SMH

I’m not sure how much of this is common knowledge but LeBron and Dave have pre interview chats where LeBron tells Dave what questions to ask so that LeBron can drive a few key points to further push whatever the narrative of the week is.
LeBron James says fatigue is hitting the Lakers from all angles. The team has spent 18 of the last 27 days on the road and will close out 2023 by spending six of the next 11 days away from home, too.

Thanks for asking Stephen. 1. I wouldn't give her advice unless she asked. 2. After looking at the comments to her posts, I would thank her for offering a place for people who can relate to her, to engage and have a conversation. She replies to the comments and based on that, people seem to appreciate it 3. From a business perspective, I would tell her that the Wellness Space is crowded but if she does this in addition to her job, she might be able to build a nice business. 4. As far as a family. I would tell her to do whatever she thinks is best for her. It's none of my fucking business 5. If I had you both in a room , I would point at her and thank her for trying to bring joy to others and I would point at you and ask what happened that causes you to hate so much. Seriously Stephen. Why so much hate from you?
Replying to @mcuban
You have a large following. People listen to your advice. What would you say is a more fulfilling path for adults: starting a family, or sleeping late and watching TV? What advice would you give to someone who suggests they wish to be childless so they can stream more shows?

The Trail Blazers do not plan to cooperate with Damian Lillard on his trade request to the Heat, per @wojespn: - Portland “open for business everywhere in the league” on trading Lillard. - Blazers seeking a combination of young players, draft picks and cap relief. - Miami has no advantage over any other team because of Lillard’s demands.

Last week, 20-year-old John Hao’s life was changed forever. He was one of the students shot at Michigan State University and was left paralyzed from the waist down. Hao is a huge fan of James Harden, and when Harden heard Hao’s story, he stepped in:

One year later, Kyiv stands. Ukraine stands. Democracy stands. America — and the world — stands with Ukraine. Рік потому Київ стоїть. Україна стоїть. Демократія стоїть. Америка – і світ – стоїть з Україною.

Told that Irving request doesn't just come a week before the trade deadline, but also two weeks before Nets season ticket holders can opt out of next season's commitment
