I always thought Barnes should go over the top on offensive players, since he's one of the best at getting great defensive play from his guys. Take the superstar offensive guys and teach them to play some defense is the equivalent of Happy learning how to putt. . .

These are green. I sliced off a bit of the “wall” to dodge the seeds. It was not sweet like an orange Habanero — instead, a little herbaceous and no heat at all. So I took another slice with a seed. There were actually two seeds — it almost knocked me down it was so hot. 🔥🥵😂 I ate a couple of spoons of yogurt, trying to coat my mouth and had to blow my nose a couple of times; I thought I was going to get the hiccups. 😂 Too bad there’s no video.

I just read that they will only ripen on the plant. So that’s out. I didn’t taste the smokey hint but I was fighting for my life at that point! I’ll figure out how to mix it with something tomorrow. It’s too early to say it won’t work out: I mixed the habanero with mango, starting out. Any suggestions?

I agree. It has been the missing piece of him and his teams finishing with FF's and NC's.

Pat did the same thing to the LV's, pushed D and rebounding so hard they lost their O, she just coached in an era of less overall talent in the game.

The game has evolved. Even how it is called has changed. Accept it and move on. Glad to see CRB appears to be doing so.
