Kenny Atkinson was asked if he thought of benching James Harden on defensive possessions at the end of Game 1. He replied, “No. He’s been one of our best defenders in these playoffs. I trust him. Smart. Great hands. Didn’t think about that.”

Timberwolves coach Chris Finch on Jaden McDaniels: “He talked all series and he backed it up all series. That’s called legitimate tough. He not only led us tonight scoring wise, but Jamal Murray was 4-for-17. I don’t think he scored on Jaden the whole game. That’s what you want.”

Austin Reaves on LeBron James: “My rookie year, I had no idea what the heck was going on. He took me under his wing and has given me every opportunity that I could ever ask for. He trusted me. We’ve built a real friendship… He’s taught me a lot. I owe him a lot for my career.”

Mark Daigneault: “I saw Mike Muscala on the court and it reminded me that he was such a huge part of our build early on. There are more than a few people that were a huge part of that that weren’t here for the last couple of years to see the fruits of that labor, but he’s certainly one of them.”

Kenny Atkinson on Donovan Mitchell: “He kept this thing together this year when things weren’t going great. He was the beacon, the light. His leadership. He carried us on the court. When things weren’t going great, he was the person everyone looked to. We could’ve splintered.”

Denver Nuggets forward Peyton Watson is having a breakout season and will be one of the top restricted free agents this summer. After rebuffing trade interest, the Nuggets want to re-sign him this summer. Why Cam Johnson could become a trade candidate as a result on YES Network.

Anthony Edwards on Mike Conley: “Mike Conley was an All-Star in the NBA. I think people forget about that. Once upon a time, he was one of the best point guards in the league. I always tell him that you used to be one of my favorite players. When I played 2K, I played with you.”

CJ McCollum: “I am no villain. I'm a nice guy with two kids and a wife. I think it's admiration. Great passionate fans in a really hostile environment. It’s fun. It’s basketball. It’s the playoffs. If anything, I think it's a sign of respect.”

David Adelman on Aaron Gordon: “There was no minutes restriction, but I think everybody saw Aaron was laboring. He gave us what he could give us. I thought it was unfair for me to keep him out there, to be honest. We’re going to have to decide what we’re going to do for Game 5.”

Victor Wembanyama on the Spurs not trading for a star and keeping their young core together: “I wasn’t speculating about anything or getting any player. I know Brian (Wright) knows who we are and trusts the process. He should get Executive of the Year also for not making a move.”

Le Petit Soldat, Jean-Luc Godard (1963) A political and deeply introspective film set during the Algerian War. The focus of the story is moral conflict: the inability to clearly distinguish between political convictions, violence, and personal emotions.

The gravitational dynamics that shape entire galaxies, creating tidal arms and bridges, can be reproduced at the millimeter scale by water lenses on a soap film—the vast and slow ballets of space are echoed in miniature on an ephemeral soap bubble. In PNAS Nexus: https://ow.ly/vYvf50YZNQQ

Taxpayer Money Gets Sent To Transnational Criminals in China?!

Cutting health insurance for 300,000 Americans to fund a 200 billion dollar war in Iran is a moral failure. This budget is a ransom note written in the public’s blood. People over profits. #FundHealthcareNotWar
