  1. Scott Foster is the answer to all your confusion on how the Rockets suddenly were able to catch up the Wolves in the last few minutes of regulation. And Jaden getting injured is why Durant suddenly was able to score down the stretch and in overtime. Jaden had him locked down all game.

  2. Y'all mind if a Bostonian speaks a little baseball for a second? πŸ˜… Listen, when Roman Anthony finally came up last year I swear to god the pitching improved, Lucas Giolito in particular. Correlation does not imply causation but it's something I noticed and I think the kid gave the team a boost.

    That's kinda what I think is happening with Tatum back — we've been a much better clutch team with him back on the court. It's not that Tatum specifically has made any particularly huge clutch plays, but something about his presence back on the court has just boosted the team and led to an improvement in that area.
