Great article except for this: "Well, at 22 Edwards is probably more efficient and more of a leader than either Bryant or Jordan was." - Not going to challenge you on leadership but will on efficiency -- Michael is one of the most efficient players/guards in NBA history. Much more so than Kobe. Don't believe me -- Do a comparison with Edwards & MJ on basketball reference utilizing the first 4 years of each man's NBA career. Blasphemy!

Wonderful column. Reads so smoothly but I know it’s hard work. … Do you remember the first column you wrote, in your 20s?

Absolutely the best line of the year: "Jalen Brunson is sui generis. If he’d gone to Arkansas he would be sooey generis,"

2015 Kentucky was 42 minutes from being the greatest team of all time. But Wisconsin spoiled that. Like in 1997, when Nazr Mohammad's failed FTs cost UK the middle title in two out of three.

Remarkable story and he’s a joy to watch play. How incredible it must be for these Villanova players to be reunited in the NBA.
