Just did a really cool interview with Kawhi and Kyle Lowry, about how they got here and everything this title means, and here’s what happened before we even started rolling. Special.

- Damian Lillard told me he was walking into church when he saw the news about Kobe on his phone. He said even after it was confirmed the helicopter went down, he spent all day waiting to hear that Kobe had somehow jumped out safely. “That’s what kind of superhero he was.”
- LeBron James sporting a @BetoORourke hat in San Antonio tonight. Beto is running for the Senate seat in Texas that Ted Cruz holds right now.
- Very impressed by players jumping In to help pay arena workers. But the players aren't the billionaires. Nearly half of NBA team owners are. Some - Mark Cuban, Tony Ressler & Dan Gilbert among them - will stilll be paying workers in some way. How about make it 30 for 30?
- Doc Rivers with raw emotion and a thunderbolt cry for justice: "All you hear is Donald Trump & all of them talking about fear. We're the ones getting killed. We're the ones getting shot...It's amazing, we keep loving this country, and this country does not love us back."
00:00 - This is no small thing from @SacramentoKings owner Vivek Randivé after the team's game was disrupted by those protesting local police killing an unarmed man in his own grandmother's backyard. Listen to what he says, and compare that to what we've heard from owners in other sports
00:00 - Jack Nicholson back courtside for the Lakers - first time since last season’s opening night.
00:00 - After Donald Trump calls NBA players kneeling during the anthem "disgraceful,' and says it makes him turn off games, LeBron James answers: "The game will go on without his eyes on it. I can sit here and speak for all of us that love the game of basketball - we could care less."
- Rick Carlisle is asked whether he wished Haliburton hadn’t done the choking gesture: “Tyrese has earned the right to do whatever he wants.”
- Damar Hamlin has arrived at a Cincinnati hospital after medical officials administered CPR on the field. 🎥: @Jatara_
00:00 - Just surreal at Staples Center - Kobe’s face on every screen as hundreds of people seem to just want to be somewhere they can cry together. Also: The Grammys are here tonight so there is the odd person wandering around in a tuxedo. None of this feels real.
00:00 - The real story of @KingJames & @DwyaneWade's 14-year friendship: draft camp, playoff battles, ducking batteries, banana boats & so much more
