What I love most about the Wolves is the reward they give to people who have been paying attention. That dynamic, by the way, is the inverse of many stories the NBA offers today.

So many fun quotes to pull from in this LA Times piece on VHS revivalism. While not a “good” format, this is one of a few solid takes on why VHS is still interesting:

\n
\n

“If a film came out originally on VHS in the ’80s or ’90s, it feels right to watch it on VHS because this is how someone in 1989 would’ve watched this movie,” Conor explains in our living room. “I like watching on VHS so I can feel like a time traveler.”

Neat to see a huge aftermarket fueling sales of La Marzocco, one of the best espresso brands in the world. Via the NYT:

A secondhand market has emerged that’s as intense as the one for vintage cars. Sales are brisk and competitive, spread mostly by word of mouth. Scams abound. The deals can be great — a used model can sell for half the price of a new one — though for rare models, the price tag can well exceed that price.

Andrew Sharp’s incredibly convincing take-down of one of the NBA league’s most pressing problems: the Oklahoma City Thunder.

\n
\n

…the problem with the Thunder is not that they are too good, but that nothing about what makes them good is interesting. They are boring as villains and unconvincing as heroes.

This is basically the over-optimization problem we see in just about every other industry, and maybe to a degree in other sports leagues, but I’m no expert).
