Didn't he end up in a psych ward after eating a bunch of pills and saying he was an Indian and was going to kill Columbus?

I remember him well. 10 year old Alex watched a lot of Sonics playoff games.
I loved using him in NBA Jam.

I guess a lot of people are giving him a hard time for those shoes being lame. As a 40 year old white guy I'd wear them.

The heel support looks weird. But steph wears that robotic cankle brace so maybe it needs to be that way.

You're just buying into his carefully cultivated image. He's basically Justin Bieber with a three point shot.

Splash brothers show up. Cavs looked gassed in the fourth. Usher is a Cavs fan?

Also, I enjoyed the refs swallowing their whistles for his one.

Yeah it helped keep Draymond in the game. Maybe he will finally get suspended for his latest groin shot.

And Usher has a minority stake in the team.

Hmmm, learn something everyday.

Green could very well be suspended. They will consider the full sequence of events.
