Um, he get to go home and be with his family.— and pull in 60— Well, I— yeah. I think he got 5 years, 65 left. So he had to pull in $65 million over the next 5 years while not coaching the Detroit Pistons. How crazy is that? To hire somebody for an all-time contract in NBA history and fire them the next year? You didn't even give the guy a chance to like actually build what, what you thought he could build when you hired him for 6 years. You signed him to 6 years. You sign someone to 6 years, you can't possibly think year 1, that's like, oh, everything's changing. Like you need time to instill culture. You know, culture isn't built overnight. And so I would love to say I was shocked. I was the least bit shocked actually, because you know, I grew up in the state of Michigan and you know, Joe Dumars isn't with the Pistons anymore. And so it's just been interesting ever since. So as shocked as I am, I'm not shocked at all.

As a 12-year NBA veteran, recovery is very important to me. As I continue to get a little older, the body just doesn't bounce back the way it used to. So I'm a big fan of Hyperice, especially their NormaTec boots. What's great about the new NormaTec Elite is that they ditch all the extra hoses and control units from the old model. This one is fully self-contained with a small set of buttons to select your compression level. Super easy to travel with and to get set up after a hard workout or a big game. On top of that, the NormaTec Elite packs 4 hours of battery life. That's enough juice to get full leg compression cycles in before games, after games, and even on the plane. And don't get me started on the tech inside this thing. Hyperice has been pioneering recovery science for years, and the brand new NormaTec Elite takes it to another dimension with 7 different compression levels to choose from. But it's not for pro athletes. Everyone can get their hands on these to help with recovery, increasing circulation, and reducing swelling in the lower body.
