Here are four thoughts on the world of sports as we await Selection Sunday and three of the best weeks on the sports calendar.
(NOT SO) BIG MONEY: This was last Sunday in Los Angeles. Golden State had just taken a beating at the hands of the normally awful L.A. Lakers. I was in Golden State’s locker room, waiting for Steph Curry’s press conference, when the former Davidson star said hello and motioned me over.
“I was a little surprised about Charles Johnson,” Curry said. “Do you think we can re-sign him?”
Curry had just had one of the few really bad games of what should be his second straight MVP season, going 1-for-10 from three-point range in a 17-point defeat.
