Hi Steve,

What's going on with Ben Simmons? Do you have any knowledge of that situation? It's starting to get a bit odd from a fan's perspective.

Nets just issued a medical update. Simmons has a nerve impingement in his back—out indefinitely.

I have no knowledge other than what’s been reported, that he’s injured. Still limited to individual workouts—nothing with teammates.

(I saw both Games 3 and 4 of the 2004 World Series in the ballpark)

This reminds me of what my Mom used to say about the 1980s Red Sox that "they invent ways to lose".

The Nets are 6-12 since KD trade. Those Red Sox teams weren’t that bad.

"Playing their very best and still finding a way to give the game away" works in reference to last night's game.
