In 1861 James Naismith was born. His legacy includes the great game of basketball. Today, 154 years later, Lebron James’ near triple-double powered the Cavs to an unlikely game three win over the heavily favored Warriors. Lets consider the facts: The Cavs are missing two starters, both lost in the playoffs. Not just random starters but all stars–two of the big three. Fortunately the last man standing is James, and that seems to be enough thus far.
Who knows if the Warriors can stop what suddenly appears to be an unstoppable force bent on bringing Cleveland their first bit of goodness in a very long time.
Some Thoughts:
- After long and careful consideration I have decided to keep cable–at least briefly. Its the football and well ESPN. There are a handful of services I am not yet willing to sacrifice. They can mostly be gained through private means such as Apple TV. It has become a much bigger deal than it should be. It feels like cutting the cord should be easier than this.

- Loot Crate is the first of number of services I stumbled upon that provide small boxes of fan material for subscription-based consumption. Hero Box is my latest favorite–given my recent game loft design project. Worth checking out…
