The Growing Legend of Lance Stephenson
From Zach Lowe over at Grantland, this story covers the improvement of Pacers' guard Lance Stephenson. Thankfully, the Pacers may reach the "Harden point" where the team won't be able to keep one of its best players due to the salary cap. That's great news for the Bulls.
Parker, Randle, and Wiggins
If you missed it, Tuesday was full of some of the finest freshman talent in college basketball competing in Chicago. Personally, I thought Jabari Parker stood out as the best player, though I was impressed by how Julius Randle loves to play with his back to the basket. Those guys are rare in the NBA making them all the more valuable. Andrew Wiggins was pretty solid, and he certainly looks the part. However, I did not see the same versatile skill set that Parker demonstrated. Still, I'll wait to see them all in action some more before making a judgement.

ESPN Writer Who Doesn't Understand Culture
I'm amazed that ESPN allowed this story to run. The author clearly has NO clue about how certain words are used at popular culture. I take it she's never heard a rap song.
