Yes, it’s that time of the year again. Time to stop worrying about where Kevin Durant’s next destination is going to be; time to stop running through lists of players which the Toronto Raptors could spend their MLE on, but most importantly, time to talk actual basketball.
It seems as if the off-season has become such a spectacle, that we forget that actual basketball is played at the end of the day. Yes, the regular season can get drawn out, but year after year, it seems as if we can barely get to the end of the playoffs without the first off-season story dropping.
