The Phillies were off Monday night after taking 2 of 3 in Pittsburgh, the first place Union -who shut out the Chicago Fire over the weekend- are off until Saturday. My Twitter feed was full of wrestling fans either lauding the WWE for their RAW Reunion Show or bemoaning its existence or people checking in on Hannah’s search for love and Luke’s sociopathic stalking of a rose ceremony on The Bachelorette.

So I closed my eyes, bowed my head and said the following: “Bless me, NBA gods, for I have sinned. It has been exactly one day since I thought about the game of basketball.”

Then I saw it. Ben Simmons splashing a jumper from deep. Then another on a turnaround. And another from the elbow. This is exactly what I needed.

Tobias Harris put it perfectly, “This finna break the internet!”

It will indeed, Tobi. Believers and non-believers alike will feel the Aussie’s wrath. The season can’t come soon enough.
