Two small market teams in the finals...

Lol, 112 degrees projected today and holding throughout the week. Weather is the reason I wouldn't ever consider living in Arizona

Yeah but during most season when it’s snowing everywhere else it’s mid-80’s in Phoenix

June averages 104 degrees in Phoenix, not sure how thats okay let alone pleasant & of course things are trending in the wrong way. You are correct that well off players can afford to have multiple homes but uprooting your young family each year to escape probably isn't every Mom or kid's first choice.

For them to be there in June means they made the finals. I think they would happlity take that, before escaping the heat.
Florida and Texas are worse with all the humidity.

Proof that we had shitty GMs before Olshey.

I wanted Chris Paul. Seemed like the superior player. But we didn't draft him because of Telfair and traded down for Webster. So... we made a bad draft pick and then doubled down by making a worse draft pick.

I'll never forget when James Jones was on our roster, he would bundle up like Nanook of the North every time we landed back in Portland just to leave the plane and walk to his car! It was hilarious! He would say he grew up in Miami and he wasn't meant for this weather! HA!
