Finally, it’s game day! We’ll have our usual complete coverage as the Toronto Raptors stop in Memphis to take on the Grizzlies, but before that, we’ll start the day... with some thoughts!
1. Nick Nurse on squatting
Somehow I missed this story from Yaron Weitzman at Fox Sports a couple of weeks back, profiling Nick Nurse — with an emphasis on Nick’s unusual habit of squatting on the sidelines. It’s a fun read with some fantastic little tidbits — including Yaron actually charting Nick’s squats during a Raptors-Knicks game, and the unknown-to-me anecdote about Nick actually signing Dennis Rodman to a one-day contract to play for the Brighton Bears.
