What Now?

July 03, 2017 by MJ Cootsona in Sports

February 23, 2017 by MJ Cootsona in Sports

Amidst a sea of commentary revolving around number 35's most recent move across the country, you may find yourself frustratingly ambivalent about Durant and the Warriors. It's an odd move, and an even more odd thing to criticize once you look at the facts. Let's look at the facts.
