It'll be extremely tough to top this for my highlight of 2024. Huge thanks to the great Luc Longley for making my night extra special.
The No Bull Tour's final show was at Sydney's Darling Harbour Theatre last night. A tremendous event and a packed house. I had high hopes and can unequivocally state they were well and truly surpassed. Funny, heartfelt and informative, even as a diehard Bulls fan since 1989. 👏

The All-Star Game is broken. Stats are largely irrelevant. No defense or intensity. The competitive nature of the players once made it exciting. A combined 133 three-pointers attempted today (vs. 48 in 1998 - via
