    Ouch. One thing Mr. Analytics may not have factored in is the cost, in free-agent bidding, of acquiring a reputation for transactional ruthlessness.

    He's been on lucrative one year deals the past two years. He's living in Brooklyn even whilst playing for the 76ers. I think he'll stay in Philly next year or go to the Knicks or Nets on one year deals.

    Why is he on a rival team's podcast? He should be in the gym practicing.

    This is amazing. They are giving us real info.

    The part that really peaked my curiosity was sleep during the season. With all the focus on health and diet it always blew my mind how little effort it paid to circadian rhythm. As a athlete during High School and college. I would often run late at night because that’s when I would have peak energy but it would mean terrible sleep. I always wondered how NBA players did it. Chris mentioning about being amped from the game resonated with me.

    Were CP3 and Ingles teammates ever??

    Ingles strikes me as a solid, quiet family dude... which is kind of CP3's off the court persona as well.
    Not really relevant, but Ingles recently revealed his son has autism, and it was a super well written blog post by him and his wife.

    Last minute roster cut of the Clippers. So essentially, they spent one preseason together as teammates and CP3 says that he stays close with him.

    Yes, for 2014 pre-season.

    He's Australian, and worked his way up to Euro-league Barcelona and Maccab teams, then tried a jump to NBA as undrafted, landing with the Clippers. He was cut in pre-season, and Jazz picked him up.

    That was really, really good. A bunch of insight. Rockets don't go out to eat as much as last year and CP3 misses it. Maybe now that the Roster is pretty much solidified, more dinners at Landry's to come?

    JJ said countless times he would’ve signed in Houston.

    Anderson came before Reddick and CP3 were available. We would have been super happy to trade Anderson for Reddick

    Bubs would have been in Houston but Morey didn't want to add a 4th year.

    (though they wouldn't have had Tucker so....)
