Dust Volume 10, Number 10

The Ex

October closes with a macabre flourish — blackened gardens, elaborate yard displays of skeletons, Halloween, the day of the dead, a terrifying American election.  We music lovers react in various ways, some turning to darker, more ominous musical textures, others seeking solace and distraction, still others ignoring the backdrop completely and listening to what they would listen to anyway.  And so, we gather another wide-ranging dust, spanning sounds inspired by a Bolivian earthquake, pogo-friendly snappy jangle, a crust supergroup, a celebration of the Ex’s 45 years in music, and much more.  This month’s contributors include Jennifer Kelly, Bryon Hayes, Bill Meyer, Jonathan Shaw, Christian Carey, Ray Garraty, Tim Clarke and Ian Mathers. 

Alma Laprida — Pitch Dark and Trembling (Outside Time)

Alma Laprida is an experimental artist and musician from Argentina, here playing a medieval stringed instrument—the tromba marina—through a 21st century array of effects pedals and an 18-inch subwoofer. The instrument, with its yards-long strings and vibrating bridge, is, by itself, capable of unusual sounds. Its natural timbre hovers between a cello and a trumpet. But fed through Laprida’s electronic rig, the sound turns harsh and ominous, blistering and dissolving into tones so low you feel rather than hear them. This album comes from a live performance at Bard College in 2023, taking as its subject Laprida’s experiences during an earthquake in Bolivia. In the long, “Trembling,” low, sustained vibrations make the air tremble, while trebly, metallic sounds skitter and rattle, like pots and pans clattering in the shock. A clock ticks in the foreground, steady on top of roiling, shifting undercurrents. “Vibra,” the other lengthy track, looses then subdues the tromba’s brassy sound, letting the echoes linger for long, not-quite-empty minutes. A corrosive blare interrupts, a foghorn in a world of mists and uncertainty, then clear string tones and its scratching echoes. Pitch Dark and Trembling distills an ambient unease into sound.

Artificial Go — Hopscotch Fever (Feel It / Future Shock)

This Cincinnati quartet produce a short, sharp brand of post-punk that induces spontaneous pogoing. Hopscotch Fever is Artificial Go’s debut, but it could easily be mistaken for an unearthed gem from late-1970s England with its snappy rhythms and chiming, angular guitars. Vocalist Angie Wilcutt (Corker) adopts an English accent as she sings charmingly, her lyrics unfolding in an energy-filled stream of consciousness that keeps pace with the bouncy backbeat of songs like “Payphone,” “Aphrodisiac,” and the band’s calling card “Artificial Go.” Cole Gilfilen (Corker, The Drin), Micah Wu, and Claudio Thornburgh round out the band’s lineup. Like a game of hopscotch, their churning jangle is a lot of fun but comes to a halt far too quickly. Hopscotch Fever is full of earworms. Its effervescent spirit lingers in our brains long after the music stops.  

Bryon Hayes

Black Toska—The Orphan (Self-Release)

The Madrileño goth punks in Black Toska return with six more haunted, synth-swathed, night visions, revisiting a sound Dusted described in early 2023 as “like John Spencer without all the arch theatricality or Rocket 808 in less of a growl and more of a croon.” If anything The Orphan is even more ominous than Dandelion was, with corrosive guitar sound tripping a hole in “Little Dead Bird” and a fever-dream unease percolating through “The Only Thing We Need.” The best cut is the title track, intimating baroque dangers its flowers-of-evil flare of wah wah and mannered vocal melody. “Who can steal a baby?” asks Victor Garcia, his elegant, jaded voice hemmed in by wild surges of electrified dissonance, as you’re left to consider that bad things—and compelling music—flourish in the shadows.

Jennifer Kelly

Paul Bryan — Western Electric (Paul Bryan Music)

The title might cue you to ponder your power situation, but the intent is more oblique. Bassist-programmer-producer Paul Bryan took Sonny Rollins’ Way Out West, an exercise in restriction that happened to open doors of conceptual opportunity for everyone who was feeling confined by the piano’s roll as the chord cop of bebop. But Bryan, whose cv. includes production and arrangement work with Jeff Parker, Josh Johnson, and Aimee Mann, is a plugged-in kind of guy, so his restriction involved writing the material on a little Yamaha keyboard and recording it with a trio comprising Jay Belleroe on drums and Josh Johnson on alto sax. Since you can’t completely separate a studio dude from his gear, there’s some processing and programmed drum, which results in the album having a soft jazz-funk feel that is uncluttered, but hardly minimal. Western Electric is the answer to a question that few might ask; what if you subtracted the guitar and the layered production from Jeff Parker’s New Breed?

Bill Meyer

CPC Gangbangs — Roadhouse (Slovenly)

CPC Gangbangs is back after a long hiatus and not a bit tamed. The Montreal garage punks with ties to Les Sexareenos and Spaceshit flared out in 2007 and reappeared (some of them) as Red Mass. But 17 years later and without explanation, they bash and slam and clatter again, serving up two covers and one original, all flayed and confrontational like it’s the rock-is-back aughts all over again. CPC Gangbangs jack up Louisiana swamp rock “Going Back to Philly” on agitated city-boy jitters. They blast through “Rock ‘n Roll Enemy #1” from the SF proto-punks Crime with furious intent. They haunt Bo Diddley’s grave site with a rackety beat in “Roadhouse.” It’s referential but never reverent, well-informed but never studious, good stuff.

Jennifer Kelly

Deadform — Entrenched in Hell (Tankcrimes)

Sort of stupid to reference the notion of “supergroup” in relation to a subgenre as witheringly anti-commercial as crust, but Deadform hits all the right notes, as it were: three dudes who have Oakland’s concrete ground into their bodies, and who have played crucial roles in bands as storied as Dystopia, Stormcrow and Laudanum. Dino Sommese (of Dystopia, and also Noothgrush and Ghoul) has the most recognizable name, for listeners beyond the Bay Area and outside of crust’s stinky, dirty milieu, and he pounds the skins and hollers with energy belying his 50-some-odd years. But all the players (including Brian Clouse and Judd Hawk) are all in. Entrenched in Hell doesn’t move beyond crust’s characteristic properties: lotsa nasty metal-tinged guitar parts, some sludgy yuck clotting up the bloodstream, the smell of filthy dreadlocks, and so on. It’s a heavy record, the second half of which hits especially hard. Check out “Peacekeeper” and especially “Fetid Breath.” Then pick yourself up off the dank floor of whatever squat you passed out in and play the tunes again.

Efterklang — Things We Have in Common (City Slang)

Danish post-rock band Efterklang has been releasing recordings for 20 years, as well as producing an opera in 2015 and making music through core members’ side projects. Things We Have in Common is the culmination of a trio of albums, beginning with Altid Sammen (2017) and continuing with Windflowers (2021). This time out, the group doesn’t eschew its characteristic experimentation, but several of the songs evince a gentle, art pop vibe, particularly “Plant” on which singer/cellist Mabe Fratti guests, “Getting Reminders,” with Beirut and “Animated Heart,” featuring the choir Sønderjysk Pigekor. Efterklang on its own is persuasive too. “Shelf Break” has an artful use of vocoder against oscillating synths and abundantly syncopated percussion. “Leave It All Behind” combines whispered vocals, keyboard arpeggiations, sustained sine tones and a drum thwack on alternating beats. Taken as part of the trio of recordings, Things We Have in Common is its hopeful conclusion.

Christian Carey

The Ex — Great! / The Evidence (Ex Records)

In 2024, the Ex are celebrating their 45th year by putting out their first new music in six years. It’s just two songs on a 45-rpm record (although they’re also throwing a celebratory shindig in Amsterdam and Mechelen late in November). Not many bands last 45 years, and of those that do, it’s pretty rare for them to put out work you’d want to hear as much as the songs that first drew you into their camp. The Ex are not a common band. The quartet of Terrie Hessels, Andy Moor, Arnold de Boer, and Katherina Bornefeld are still engaged with the moment; the words to these two song address current realities with a combination of elliptical expression and blunt veracity. They’re still engaged with each other, locking into these tough, intricate, but fat-free tunes with combustible chemistry intact. And they’re still tuned into the joy and outrage that’s infused their work across four and a half decades. That’s pretty rare.

Bill Meyer

Jill Fraser— Earthly Pleasures (Drag City)

Electronic composer Jill Fraser has been making music for commercials and films, as well as performing New Age pieces live, since the 1970s. Earthly Pleasures is her first album release in a while. It demonstrates her versatility with vintage gear such as the 1978 Serge Modular synth and newer resources such as Ableton Push 3. “When We Get to Heaven” is a ten-minute long track that uses these resources to make a diaphanously appealing arrangement. “Amen 1” and “Amen 2” are more aphoristic, the first with clouds of harmony and a sci-fi sounding ascent, the second with sparking bell timbres, oscillating percussion, sampled voices, and a fluid keyboard part. Earthly Pleasures closes with “I Stand Amazed,” with trebly, widely spaced synths. Fraser has suggested that the theme of this album is, “What happens to our music when we die?” History suggests that mileage varies, but while she is earthbound, one hopes Fraser has more recordings to share.

Christian Carey

Häxenzijrkell — Portal (Amor Fati)

German maestros of bummer black metal Häxenzijrkell are back with another slab of downtempo musical maelstroms, engineered to drag you into a terrible, soul crushing void. That description and the band’s sonic profile sound a lot like blackened doom, but somehow the music on Portal scans as straight-up black metal — at least to this reviewer’s ears. The best tracks are at the end of the record: “Assiah” and “Aeon” drone, churn and distend like the effects of some of that legendary brown acid, which we aren’t supposed to eat. There’s nothing especially lysergic (to invoke that too-trivially used term) about the textures or production of Portal. It’s more the nightmarishness of the tunes, the mechanical edges on the band’s sound, the taste of something metallic at the back of the tongue — all that stuff accumulates, alongside the deliberate, glacial progress of the songs. Soon that glistening, awful wall of ice looms over you. You can see your face on its glassy surface. You know it’s a bad idea to stare, but you can’t help yourself. It’s excruciating. It’s entrancing. You are through the Portal.

Jonathan Shaw

Boldy James & Harry Fraud — The Bricktionary (Boldy James / SRFSCHL)

The Bricktionary is the fourth Boldy James’ tape this year and apparently not the final one. The producer Harry Fraud has also been too busy lately, spreading himself too thin. The good news is that Boldy is good even on generic beats (probably half of his output has been on some unknown guys’ production). It’s the kind of street music which never forgets that it’s an art and not a report card. The best track here is “Shadowboxing.”

Ray Garraty

Danny Kamins — Retainer (Sound Holes)

“Solo Horn,” declares the J-card art, and it does not lie. This tape presents Texan Danny Kamins playing sopranino and baritone saxophones at home, alone. It would appear that he spent his lockdown time developing his circular breathing. On the small horn, his examinations of patterns that subtly vary and throw off flurries of orbiting overtones feels like an homage to Evan Parker’ solo soprano work. Parker got there first with such authority that he has made it hard for other people to do it and not simply sound like him. Kamins sounds great but doesn’t quite overcome the challenge of differentiation. The baritone is another matter. Kamins sculpts massive ribbons of tunneling, rippling sound to consistently compelling effect.

Bill Meyer

Seiji Murayama / Jean-Luc Guionnet — Balcony Inside (Ftarri)

Multi-instrumentalist, graphic artist, composer, improviser, film-maker, etc.; Jean-Luc Guionnet is a confirmed polymath. On Balcony Inside he and frequent collaborator Suijiro Murayama perform a duet for church organ (Guionnet) and snare drum, cymbal and voice (Muriyama). But it might be more accurate to say that they play with space. There’s the apparently capacious interior of the Taborkirche, which Guionnet represents with massive chords that beat against the walls. And there’s the space inside your head, which is likely to be rearranged by Muriyama’s horror-movie-victim cries and emphatic, elastically rhythmic beats. A seasonal suggestion: pipe this music loudly out of your house on Halloween, and keep a tally of how many are drawn by these massive sounds and how many avoid your house.

Bill Meyer

The Necks — Bleed (Northern Spy)

It’s impossible to guess where The Necks might head next, whether live or on record. Their new album, Bleed,is a single 42-minute track that unfolds patiently in an episodic fashion. There are no conventional rhythms from Tony Buck; instead, he punctuates the space with chimes, bowed cymbals and snare and tom rolls that suggest something ominous is about to happen. Sparse, sustained piano notes from Chris Abrahams are left to hang in the air — listen carefully and you can hear breathing in the room — or Abrahams switches to organ and projects pulsing clusters of notes into stereo space. In an unexpected turn, an electric guitar appears, with accompanying tube amp hum. Lloyd Swanton’s bass is largely absent, save for occasional isolated octave plucks, or some ominous bowing. When the piece coalesces in its final stretch with two piano chords, bass and guitar, the music is begging to continue in this vein for at least twice as long as it does but is cruelly cut short. That’s The Necks for you: always expansive, always surprising, always tapping into music’s eternal potential.

Tim Clarke

Rich the Factor — The North Face Whale, Vol. 3 (WE MFR)

We mostly listen to Rich the Facc’s music because of his gruff voice. The North Face Whale, Vol. 3 is another sample of his voice. The big mistake would be to try to pay attention to what he’s saying on these songs. It is some usual nonsense about how he’s “on money mission, not on dummy mission.” Even after dozens of replays no song off this tape stays in memory. But it’s fine. You have only one question: how is The North Face Whale, Vol. 3 any different from Vol. 1 and Vol. 2?

Ray Garraty

Colin Andrew Sheffield — Moments Lost (Sublime Retreat)

Sound source resonates with subject on this brief minimax (a 3” CD embedded in a 5” plastic disc) CD made by Colin Andrew Sheffield, an electronic musician who resides in Austin TX. Sheffield’s preferred method is plunderphonics; he mines his own media collection for sounds to be procured and (most of the time) processed into music of his own. Moments Lost is a soundtrack made from soundtracks. Sheffield has marshalled a mass of samples from movies, mostly string passages that imply moments of pause, reflection, transition and loss, and layered and sequenced them into a 20.33” sequence of sounds daub association and reverie like a painter might daub paint. Played at low volume, it could be your next go-to ambient recording. But if you spend time listening closely, perhaps while peering at the sleeve’s stills from a film that Sheffield played along with the music when he first presented it at the Molten Plains Festival in Denton in 2023, you might find your physique and consciousness sinking deep while you hit the play button over and over.

Chelsea Wolfe — She Reaches Out to She Reaches Out to She (Loma Vista)

Considering Chelsea Wolfe hasn’t put out a solo LP since 2019’s Birth of Violence, and that was basically a folk record, casual fans may well wonder what kind of upheavals led to this very different seventh album. On a personal level there have been plenty (sobriety, relationships changing, learning to live alone, etc) and that combined with additional pandemic time spent working on the demos led to Wolfe going in a more electronic direction and deliberately seeking an outside producer (Dave Sitek of TV on the Radio, many others) to transform the songs. The result is further in a darkwave/trip-hop direction than the already protean Wolfe has previously gone, and also one of her most consistently engaging records. Whether on the noisier, spikier bursts of “Whispers in the Echochamber” and “Eyes Light Nightshade” or the more delicate likes of “The Liminal” and “Place in the Sun,” there’s a beautifully sung and relentless Gothic vibe to the whole thing that’s extremely satisfying. Wolfe may well choose to move on again after this, but it’ll be a bit of a shame if she does.

[ulkaralakbarova]

Johnny Truelove likes to see himself as tough. He’s the son of an underworld figure and a drug dealer. Johnny also likes to get tough when things don’t go his way. When Jake Mazursky fails to pay up for Johnny, things get worse for the Mazursky family, as Johnny and his ‘gang’ kidnap Jake’s 15 year old brother and holds him hostage. Problem now is what to do with ‘stolen boy?’ Credits: TheMovieDb.

They were very believable. The movie did a great job of showing us just how crazy and out of control a simple misunderstanding can get. Hopeful Hollywood does force Ben Foster down our throat! Small doses please! NOTE: Alpha Dog has a lot of language in it. DoryDarko: Going into this film, I had no idea what it was about, only that it was based on a true story. And the more I think about this fact, the truth behind it all, the more it saddens me. The story that unfolded before my eyes...

A-T-3 220 Sleeping Bag Records

Sleeping Bag Records was founded by goody Arthur Russell and baddy Will Socolov in 1981. Its first two releases were both Arthur Russell productions Dinosaur L album 24->24 Music in 1981, and FK's remake of Go Bang, Go Bang #5 in 1982. The label expanded in 1983 when they began releasing tracks by other artists and future partner Juggy Gayles joined as a promoter. Russell and Socolov fell out over their differences and Russell walked away from the venture. These early 1980s releases really are a slice of New York's downtown scene

Sounds Of JHS 126 Brooklyn - Chill Pill (Under Water Mix)

Mix by Killer Whale, a pseudonym used by Arthur Russell used on this and Tell You Today. Written and produced by Kenny Warden who played on Candido's Thousand Finger Man

Chill Pill is SLX-4, there doesn't seem to be a SLX-3 perhaps they adjusted it because Go Bang #5 was released as SLX-0 rather than 1? Who knows!

Sleeping Bag's entry into hip-hop history comes with the signing of Kurtis Mantronic in 1985, his 85 releases alone were Needle To The Groove and Fresh Os The Word (Mantronix), Johnny The Fox (Tricky Tee), All And All (Joyce Sims)

Instrumental mixed by Danny Krivit gets overlooked because of the Under Water Mix

Jamaica Girls - Need Somebody New

Burt Reid's Jamaica Girls follow up to 1982s Rock The Beat. Mixed for the Paradise Garage by Larry Levan. At his best Levan can have a spiritual effect on the dance floor, the dub is almost call and response like you might hear in the black church tradition. David Mancuso, Larry Levan, Tee Scott were playing gospel records in their sets, like Stand On The Word

Dub

Class Action - Weekend (Larry Levan Mix)

Sleeping Bag SLX-1 and the biggest record on this list. It's a cover of the 1978 the Patrick Adams Presents Phreek hit written by Leroy Burgess and James Calloway. Bob and Lola Blank's version also has Christine Wiltshire singing the lead vocal like she did the original Phreek version. This is Larry Levan's mix but on the other side of the record M+M provide their mix and a dub

Urban Blight - Urban Nite Dub

Downtown NYC ska influenced band who formed a lasting friendship with the Beastie Boys after Urban Blight asked them to be their support at a Ritzy show in 1984. Mark Kamins mixes the record

268 Directors and the end of the blog

This post marks the end of the Ask a Director experiment. I’m so grateful to all who have contributed, supported and engaged with it over the past six and a half years. 

This blog was started at a time when I felt incredibly alone in the directing field. I had always been taught that a director operates solo, that it was a lonely career and above all, it was based on scarcity. This was a style of working and living that didn't fit for me. I wanted to talk to other directors about their practice and thoughts about the field, both national and international. This blog was started as a way to connect, to uplift other directors and to create a conversation about the changing field and practices. 

It's surpassed all of these goals and brought me more joy than I can name. 

I'm now at a moment where my practice and advocacy are taking different and exciting paths and it's time for me to put this site to bed. I remain committed to uplifting other directors, to talking about the practice, to flattening hierarchies, to opening doors for new ways of working, and leading rehearsal rooms, companies, and classrooms away from silos and vacuums. Featuring these 268 different directors was just the beginning. 

I encourage you all to hire them (and others), advocate for them (and others) and choose to work in a system that values connection and generosity.

Don't touch my junk

“Don’t touch my junk” is a phrase that became popular in the United States in 2010 as a criticism of Transportation Security Administration (TSA) patdowns. The word “junk” is American English slang for a man’s genitals. The phrase refers to the offense many people took to the November 2010 decision by TSA to begin full body patdowns of airline passengers in the U.S. who refused to go through a full body scanner.

Origin

The phrase was inadvertently coined in 2010 by passenger John Tyner, an Oceanside, California computer programmer who released an audio recording from San Diego International Airport in which he told TSA agents: “If you touch my junk, I’m going to have you arrested.” Tyner had initially chosen to undergo a pat-down rather than going through a full-body scan machine because of health concerns and the fact that he viewed the machines as a threat to privacy. The TSA refused to allow him to pass without this intimate search and so he declined to travel and got a refund on his ticket. An official then demanded that he submit to a search regardless. He declined and was threatened with prosecution, as well as a fine of $10,000.

In response to being asked by a reporter if he thought he looked like a terrorist, Tyner said “No, I’m a 6-foot-1 [1.85 m], white man". He subsequently uploaded a video onto YouTube based on his experience, which went viral and received 70,000 views by the end of the same day. Most of the comments posted on the video were supportive of Tyner.

Support and Criticism

Conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer subsequently wrote an editorial in which he expressed support for Dr. Tyner and described “Don’t Touch My Junk” as the “anthem of the modern man, the Tea Party patriot, the late-life libertarian, and the midterm election voter” and even compared it to the American patriotic phrase “Don’t Tread On Me”. At least two “Don’t Touch My Junk” songs have since been released, one of which was written by Houston, Texas, musician Danny Kristensen and was based on a James Cotton song, “Cut You Loose”.

Michael Kinsley weighed in on Politico in a column entitled “Go ahead, touch my junk”, in which he defended the TSA against criticism from Dr. Tyner and others. A columnist for The Atlantic, Wendy Kaminer, argued that the intentions of those, such as Krauthammer, who were criticizing the indiscriminate screening of passengers, were actually promoting racial profiling. Kaminer described Krauthammer’s suggestion that screening should be conducted on the “profile of the airline attacker [which] is… universally known,” as more aptly summed up as “Don’t Touch My Junk, Touch His”.

In another variation, news anchor Brian Williams said on the Late Show with David Letterman, “I always get it at [Los Angeles International Airport]. I get nailed. They go, they go right in. This new thing, they go right after Dave and the twins.”

“Don’t touch my junk” was parodied, to the tune of Parliament’s “Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof off the Sucker)”, at the 2011 Gridiron Club dinner, with President Obama in attendance. Also in March 2011, two New Hampshire state representatives introduced proposed legislation, colloquially called the “don’t touch my junk bill”, that would criminalize as sexual assault invasive TSA patdowns made without probable cause.

KC Royals head to spring with new look, fresh outlook on another year of growth

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The biggest changes to the Kansas City Royals since the end of last season happened far away from the field.

Now, the new-look organization wants to see some change on the field.

After the Royals were sold by to Kansas City businessman John Sherman, and Mike Matheny was hired to replace retired manager Ned Yost, the club heads to spring training with a fresh new feel.

And that’s a good thing given the Royals eclipsed 100 losses for the second consecutive year as they undergo a massive rebuilding project.

“We like our team. It’s a fun team and a good group,” general manager Dayton Moore said. “There’s a lot to be excited about. The new ownership, as we’ve talked about, is very encouraging and exciting. We can’t wait. I’m heading down to spring training two weeks earlier than I ever have before.”

The Royals went through significant growing pains last season, but part of that was because so many young position players were getting hard-fought experience.

Among them were third baseman-turned-outfielder Hunter Dozier, slick-fielding second baseman Nicky Lopez and shortstop Adalberto Mondesi, one of the best talents to come through in years.

What was missing was the pitching, and it still won’t be there most of this season.

But with a full rotation worth of young arms in the pipeline, some of whom could arrive by September, there is optimism even in that department.

“I heard it early on that these guys are hungry. They want to be pushed,” Matheny said. “I think they’re very grateful for how well Ned protected this group. But I think they’re ready for another expectation. Be careful what you wish for. Let’s put it out there. Let’s go. Let’s chase excellence.”

Pitchers and catchers report to Arizona on Feb. 12.

NEW LOOK

The biggest changes came at the top, where David Glass — who died in January after a long illness — passed along the franchise to Sherman.

The businessman was a partial owner of the Cleveland Indians and now, along with a group of local investors, the lifelong baseball fan has the opportunity run a big league team.

Mike Matheny

Matheny was the other big change.

His managerial career spiraled downhill with the St. Louis Cardinals. He spent time on self-betterment during a year working as an adviser to the Royals, and one of his first orders of business was to meet with every player on the team before the season.

“Our young group of core players are excited about him being our manager,” Royals outfielder Bubba Starling said. “We can’t wait to see what he has to offer to us and we can’t wait to play behind him.”

ROOKIES TO WATCH

There are a handful of position players worth monitoring in the minors, but the arms will capture most of the attention. The quartet of Brady Singer, Jackson Kowar, Daniel Lynch and Kris Bubic are the future of the Royals rotation.

“They’re all they’re made up to be. We’re ready for them, ready to see what they can do,” Royals outfielder Whit Merrifield said. “I hope they’re preparing to come to spring and fight for a job.”

THEY’RE SET

Just about every position is set heading into spring training.

Alex Gordon will join Merrifield and Dozier in the outfield with Starling providing depth. Jorge Soler will be back as an outfielder and designated hitter.

Maikel Franco takes over at third base with Mondesi, Lopez and first baseman Ryan O’Hearn finishing off the infield.

Salvador Perez will be back behind the plate after missing all of last season due to Tommy John surgery.

THEY’RE NOT

Four spots in the starting rotation are likely set with Brad Keller and Danny Duffy joining Jakob Junis and Mike Montgomery, but the fifth spot is up for grabs.

The Royals also need some bullpen arms to lock down jobs after the entire relief corps — except closer Ian Kennedy — struggling last season.

ON DECK

What fans can look forward to in spring training? How about sunshine and warmth after a cold, snowy winter in Kansas City.

The Royals fully realize that this is likely going to be another year of growth, and that makes taking a lot of lumps. So fans are best off enjoying the weather, the scenery and the games rather than fretting too much over wins and losses.

Dust Volume Five, Number 11

Cold rain, dead leaves, political corruption, diplomatic betrayal…it’s been a bleak couple of weeks on the home front, but at least the music is good. This time out, we check in with the estimable Ezra Furman (pictured above) and his blistering punk rock album, as well as a smattering of shoegaze, a low frequency trio, a black metal endurance test, acoustic entropy and the sound of black holes colliding.  You know, same old, same old.  Our contributors include Andrew Forell, Bill Meyer, Jennifer Kelly, Jonathan Shaw and Ian Mathers.

Blushing — Blushing (Wallflower Records)

Blushing by Blushing

Blasting out of Austin, Texas come Blushing (married couples Michelle and Jacob Soto on guitar/vocals and drums, Christina and Noe Carmona on vocals/bass and guitar) with their self-titled debut album, an impressively sophisticated addition to the shoegaze landscape. Blushing displays finely tuned dynamics, a keen sense of melody and joyous rushes of controlled noise. The interplay of twin vocals adds an ethereal Cocteau Twins sheen to the songs but Blushing aren’t afraid to let rip with layers of guitar. Producer Elliott Frazier of Ringo Deathstarr achieves space and separation in the mix that elevates this album above the basic quiet-loud-quiet formula. Underpinning all this is simply terrific songwriting and musicianship. Opener “So Many” starts with whispered vocals over strums and washes of guitar before the rhythm section enters, there’s a slow build before the track blossoms into a widescreen squall of almost psychedelic guitars and pounding drums then wanes into a feedback outro. Highlights “Dream Merchants” and “The Truth” bring classic shoegaze tropes and add a dreamy panoramic depth. Blushing is a band to watch and this is a gem of a debut.

 CARL — Solid Bottom (Astral Spirits)

Solid Bottom by CARL

“Bass, how low can you go?” CARL’s flow differs drastically from Mike D’s, but the question is undeniably pertinent. The Houston-based trio comprises three low end instruments — Damon Smith (since departed) on double bass, Andrew Durham on electric bass and radio, and bandleader Danny Kamins on baritone saxophone — hitting sonorities that range from ankle high to sub-sub-basement. But bulbous pitches can still be nimble, and so it is here. The interaction pits genre against genre, bow thrust against amp buzz, melancholy phrase against floor-rattling rumble, resulting in music that never feels at ease. Hey, Texas needs some opposition, and these folks are ready to show the way.

 Ezra Furman—Twelve Nudes (Bella Union)

Twelve Nudes by Ezra Furman

It was about the time that Ezra Furman started expressing his distinct identity—queer, cross-dressed, devoutly Jewish—that he turned into one of rock’s great songwriters. Today, freed of the need for self-abnegation, his songs balance a razor-stropped wit with sharp, assaultive hooks; he is not afraid to tell you his story, though he’s too literate and clever to deliver it unadulterated. His songs have a shape and a sting at the end like a good short story, but a punch that is considerably more visceral. “The kids are just getting started/they’ve only just learned to howl, and most of them throw in the towel/by the time that they turn 23,” he shouts raspily in “Evening Prayer aka Justice” and it leads into the kind of stirring, anthemic chorus that Titus Andronicus used to be so good at. “What Can You Do But Rock and Roll” rampages in a short-circuiting stop-start attack, like Green Day before they got so serious about themselves. In short, it’s a rock and roll of the sort that the culture has mostly abandoned, the kind that large men push to the front of Hold Steady concerts for, that causes Japandroids fans to punch the air. And yet it is not wholly of this man-centric tradition, simply because of who Ezra Furman is – lipsticked, cocktail dressed, smarter than you and willing to talk Torah. In short, here is a songwriter who has been killing it since Day of the Dog and Twelve Nudes, his latest, punk-est album (inspired equally by Jay Reatard and the Canadian poet Anne Carson) may just be his best. He is of the zeitgeist and also not, and you kind of wish more people were paying attention.

 Great Grandpa—Four of Arrows (Double Double Whammy)

Four of Arrows by Great Grandpa

“That’s why I hate you-ou,” cries Alex Menne in “Digger,” their voice catching in a hiccupping way that invites intimacy even at high volume. Her confidences are couched in an explosive swirl of country rocking countercurrents, concocted by the band’s two main songwriters, bassist and singer Carrie Goodwin and guitarist Pat Goodwin and executed alongside Dylan Hanwright (also guitar) and Cam LaFlam (drummer). The Seattle band’s second full-length is less brash and rock-centric than the 2017 debut Plastic Cough, which, perhaps because of their northwestern roots, elicited the term “grunge” from critics. This one is fuller, more elaborate and entirely devoid of Soundgarden references. It is decorated with lush, multi-voiced singing and baroque instrumental counterparts, and critically, uses a warmer more organic palette of instruments. That’s a violin and a banjo building out “English Garden,” not the buzz saw guitars of “Teen Challenge.” This rich, tuneful, grounded experiment might remind you of Ohmme, Hop Along or the Moondoggies, sleek but vulnerable, blown out but in control.

  Hatchie — Keepsake (Double Double Whammy/Ivy League/Heavenly Recordings)

Could it somehow be the fact that Harriette Pilbeam (late of Aussie indie rock band Babaganouj and here aka Hatchie, a family nickname) plays bass instead of the more standard frontwoman guitar that makes the singer-songwriter’s debut LP of new wave dream pop confections so singularly striking? Probably not, but Keepsake is assured and ingratiating enough it does leave one looking for the secret ingredient. Whether it’s the swooning likes of “Without a Blush” or “Secret” or the rougher emotional and sonic texture of “Unwanted Guest,” whether it’s playing against a sampled loop of her own voice on the chorus of “Obsessed” or achieving a particular kind of downward gazing transcendence through drum machine and synthesizer on “Stay With Me,” all of the songs here manage to hit on just the right combination of genre-appropriate beauty in texture with genuinely impressive melodic songcraft that whether Pilbeam sticks with this sound or not, she’s one to watch.  

Ian Mathers  

 Imperial Cult — Spasm of Light (Amor Fati/Sentient Ruin Laboratories)

Spasm of Light by Imperial Cult

This record consists of a single, 34-minute, largely improvised track, captured live in the studio. It’s all about endurance: the band’s, who must gamely thrash and bash at their instruments, with all of black metal’s requisite speed and intensity; and the listener’s, who has to commit a fairly significant amount of attention to the thing. Hailing from Holland, Imperial Cult are a new band, subscribing to the minimal web-presence policy of some other hyper-obscure acts, so it’s tough to say if they are of the “Satanists-and-we-really-mean-it” variety of continental black metal. If they are, the record’s grandiose gesture makes a certain sense. “Spasm of Light” may thematize the notion of eternal hellfire and torment. That, in turn, would raise other theological questions (do these guys imagine that declaring themselves devil worshippers and making this sort of music is their ticket out of forever in Bedlam? or are they looking forward to it?) that this reviewer isn’t all that interested in. More immediately concerning is the music. It’s pretty good, though to these ears, it’s more evocative of the epically inclined USBM bands of the Cascadian school — especially the early records of Ash Borer — than purposefully underground European occult acts like Novae Militiae (yes please) or Deathspell Omega (no thanks). Musically, that’s a good thing. Ideologically, who knows? Do these dudes wear cowls and sacrifice small mammals? Do you really want to know? Jonathan Shaw

  Minor Pieces — The Heavy Steps of Dreaming (FatCat)

Just gorgeous. Tape hiss master Ian William Craig and a Vancouver-based songwriter named Missy Donaldson join forces in an album that hangs right in the spectral other-space between conventional song and ambient soundscape. Craig, who is a classically-trained singer, sings lead most of the time. His clear, vibrato-laced tones with clouds and miasmas of electronic wash, mass-y harmonies and fragmented bits of guitar and piano. The effect in opener “Rothko” is both luminously polished and dream-like. “Bravagallata” reaches further up the register, twining Craig’s androgynous, unearthly tenor with the warmth of nestling, caressing harmonies; it shimmers in the interstices between icy modernity and comforting folk song. “The Way We Are in Song,” arises out of glowing, shifting electronic tones, yet feels wholly natural and unaffected. The way we are in this song is beautiful, touchingly human, but more so.

 The Pheromoans — County Lines (ALTER)

County Lines by The Pheromoans

The Pheromoans look at the world sideways, buttressing a workman-like rock and roll sound with murky embellishments of violin and synths. With a wobbly, wavery flavor of post-punk that might remind you, a little, of Blue Orchids, they match up dense woozy riffs with literate mumbles. They are the sort of band to ask “Sharia or Sheeran” and leave you shrugging, what’s the difference? This is the Pheromoans’ fifth full-length; their diaspora previously landed them on Upset! The Rhythm; but here the edges aren’t sharp enough, the punches not hard enough to evoke that label’s other bands. Yet there’s a disconsolate appeal to these wandering tracks. “Troll Attack” eviscerates electronic interaction against a Casio beat; both the music and the lyrics poke at unsatisfactory surfaces to find darker, truer muck underneath.

 Matthew Revert — The Inpatient (Round Bale)

The Inpatient by Matthew Revert

Some people get ready for surgery by making a bowl of Jell-o and making sure that the Hulu bill is paid up. Not Matthew Revert. His preparation for a date with the surgeon involved pitching himself into a new creative endeavor. None of his recordings to date, which have mostly involved acoustic entropy and electro-acoustic construction, will prepare you for The Inpatient. The album comprises ten improvised but structurally sound songs, all sung in nakedly emotional Spanish. Imagine Alan Bishop adopting a persona that is not immune to shame, and you’ve got an idea where this stuff goes. Prepare to be bemused.

Bill Meyer                        

 Marcus Schmickler — Particle/Matter–Wave/Energy (Kompakt)

Space is a place that has been exercising the minds of composers of late with recent releases by William Basinski (On Time Out of Time) and The Kronos Quartet (Terry Riley: Sun Rings) being two examples that use recordings from the deep cosmos. German experimental producer Marcus Schmickler, best known for his work as Pluramon, imagines the sound of galaxies colliding on his new piece Particle/Matter-Wave/Energy, a 37-minute block of immersive ambience based on Schmickler’s use of an algorithm to model gravitational data as a tool for sonification, a process that translates information into sound. The result is huge waves of tones that rumble, whistle and bleep like a swarm fleeing a storm. Through headphones this is an almost vertigo inducing experience as Schmickler evokes the sense of plummeting through a vast endless expanse of darkness. A fascinating and often unsettling piece, Particle/Matter-Wave/Energy works as a soundscape experiment rather than a casual listen, perhaps more to admire than enjoy, but it has a fluid physicality that rescues it from mere abstraction.

 Stein Urheim — Simple Pieces & Paper Cut-outs (Hubro)

Simple Pieces & Paper Cut-Outs by Stein Urheim

John Fahey barely made it into the 21st century, but his influence looms as large as ever. Stein Urheim, a guitarist from Bergen, Norway, is merely the latest to commit his confrontation with Fahey’s legacy to wax. He tips his hat to The Yellow Princess and other recordings of that vintage in this album’s accompanying book of tablature, but even if he hadn’t put it down in writing, you could hear it in his playing. Urhein is no rooky. He’s been recording with various bands since around 2004, working with singers and playing jazz, but this is the first time he’s anything quite like this. Urheim seems to be drawn to Fahey’s most virtuosic and lyrical work, and he has the chops to back it up, but also the performative confidence to let the music develop in its own time rather than chase after it. One has to put a bit of yourself into the music if you want to transcend the “sounds like Fahey” blanket that covers so many American Primitive guitar LPs. Urheim gets this, and he doesn’t take the easy way out by, say, applying his bluesy, acoustic picking to rustic themes or folkloric sources. Nor does he go for Fahey-esque textual obfuscation or faux-mythologizing. Instead he incorporates some samba gestures into the tunes, keeps them pithy and presses them on vinyl (by no means an assured thing on Hubro, which usually markets music via CDs and the internet). The album title proclaims this music’s simplicity, but Urheim’s is not simplistic so much as clear.

Welcome to the NBA’s Win-Now Era

The days of waiting for a better future and hoarding draft picks are over. This is the new NBA.

As we head into a free agent frenzy that’s guaranteed to transform the NBA, its offseason slogan should be “why not us?” The 2020 Finals are up for grabs, and many teams that will enter next year confident in their ability to win a playoff series can also fancy themselves as possible championship contenders. The playing field won’t be entirely level, but aggressive personnel moves that service the present will take precedence in a way we haven’t seen for quite some time.

In the NBA, as much as in life, unpredictability breeds two things: chaos and opportunity. This is the NBA’s “five percent theory” in action, a term outlined by Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey earlier this decade. “If you’ve got even a five percent chance to win the title—and that group includes a very small number of teams every year—you’ve gotta be focused all on winning the title,” he said then.

Last year, four teams bought in: the Golden State Warriors, Toronto Raptors, Milwaukee Bucks, and Philadelphia 76ers. Everybody else was content with what they had, not believing Golden State was vulnerable enough to strike. Morey’s Rockets cut costs, and, with a stiff upper lip, the Boston Celtics gazed longingly at photos of Anthony Davis.

This year, many more teams will enter free agency believing they have at least a five percent shot at the crown. In the right circumstances, even the most shortsighted move should be forgiven. Now is not the time to be patient with ripening young talent or hoard future first-round picks that won’t turn into actual people for a few more years.

For the first time in at least a decade, the NBA has no boogeyman. The Warriors are depleted, with Kevin Durant’s ruptured Achilles eliminating his league-tilting talent. That leaves a vacuum at the top, and we may go most of the regular season without any team convincingly filling it. (Seriously, would you be one thousand percent blown away if the Portland Trail Blazers won it all? That’s the point.)

Furthermore, the shadow of the defending champion looms over everybody. Toronto’s successful trade for Kawhi Leonard may convince very good teams that they should also punt on arduous rebuilds or stagnant annual playoff runs before they fall victim to a system that increasingly fosters constant roster turnover. Even if the Raptors’ title happened in part thanks to bouncy buzzer-beaters and serious injuries, they proved it’s possible to catch lightning in a bottle. Patience is out. Risk is in.

As no team sits at the top, neither does any single player. The gap between LeBron James and everybody else closed dramatically this year. He will still be great, but elite talent at or near his level is now sprayed across the league. How many dudes can legitimately be referred to as a “top-5 player” next season? I count nine: LeBron, Kawhi, Anthony Davis, Steph Curry, James Harden, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Damian Lillard. Any team with one of those players should feel like they have a chance to win it all.

Plus, there are a few unmentioned names also good enough to move the needle in a significant way: Russell Westbrook, Kyrie Irving, Jimmy Butler, Nikola Jokic, Karl-Anthony Towns, Bradley Beal, Draymond Green, Kemba Walker, Al Horford, Mike Conley, Khris Middleton, DeMar DeRozan, Rudy Gobert, CJ McCollum, Devin Booker, Nikola Vucevic, LaMarcus Aldridge, D’Angelo Russell, Victor Oladipo, Kyle Lowry, and Blake Griffin.

Then there’s a few pups from recent draft classes who are poised to make Robert Pattinson-esque leaps into a more serious conversation: Ben Simmons, Donovan Mitchell, Jayson Tatum, Jamal Murray, Pascal Siakam, De’Aaron Fox, Trae Young, Luka Doncic, Caris LeVert, Buddy Hield, Dejounte Murray, Jaylen Brown, and Zach Collins.

What makes all this even more meaningful? Free agency!

About 20 players mentioned above will need new contracts this summer or next. (Neither list includes Durant, whose eventual return reduces the likelihood of any one team establishing itself as unbeatable.) The Los Angeles Lakers are the only team with two heavy hitters, but one of them is entering his 17th season and neither competed in the playoffs last year. It’s also easy to imagine how that front office will bungle every chance to actually build a team around them between now and next July.

No other franchise has been able to collect three or four difference makers like the Warriors, or even LeBron’s Cavaliers, recently did. This is what the Collective Bargaining Agreement intended. The post-superteam NBA has arrived.

All that dispersed talent will infuse several teams with a confidence level that, put nicely, will be unearned. Winning a title is a gargantuan task. Even if no end-of-days titan lurks in Silicon Valley, assembling a roster that’s sturdy enough to rumble through four grueling rounds of playoff basketball is like playing Jenga while wearing a blindfold during an earthquake. The only guarantee is that all but one team will lose their final game, but that doesn’t mean trying won’t and shouldn’t be the ultimate goal.

Normally, this time of year, about five teams will see themselves as a serious contender without exiting the reality inhabited by the rest of us. But because this summer is different—and features a perfect storm of cap space, star free agents, and fluid hierarchy—at least a third of the league may be willing to spend money, part with first-round picks, and take a more aggressive stance than they otherwise would.

With no pecking order to speak of before free agency is settled, here are some candidates who can rationalize a run at the title in the NBA’s win-now era, ranked from most to least urgent.

Los Angeles Lakers

No team is more focused on today than the Lakers. LeBron is not getting any younger, and most of their future assets belong to the New Orleans Pelicans. They have no choice but to put all their eggs in 2020’s basket.

But with little clarity on the exact amount of money they’ll have to spend after the Davis trade, it’s difficult to figure out who they should target. If they can get Kawhi, Kyrie, or Kemba, they should knock themselves out. Less costly options include J.J. Redick, Danny Green, Wayne Ellington, Wes Matthews, Darren Collison, and Isaiah Thomas.

Houston Rockets

Locker-room quarrels aside, Houston is a title contender at the end of the day because it employs James Harden. He’s a hyper-efficient megastar who doesn’t take games off and is undefeated in the playoffs against every team except Golden State since Chris Paul became a teammate.

Equally important: Morey is as hawkish as general managers come and knows how to maximize a championship window when he sees one. Houston went out of its way to slip under the luxury tax last year, and were eliminated with a humiliating 98.5 offensive rating in the final two crunch times of their season. Yet that decision puts them in position to spend now, despite being way over the salary cap.

If they can get off Paul’s contract, they will. If not, Clint Capela, P.J. Tucker, and Eric Gordon will be available should a deal comes around that gives Houston trade chips to flip and/or some financial flexibility. You can bet Morey will turn over every rock in sight to upgrade the team. Jimmy Butler will reportedly be targeted in a sign-and-trade, but if that transaction proves to be too convoluted what if the Rockets go a different route by trading Gordon, Capela, and a lightly-protected 2020 first-round pick to Cleveland for Kevin Love, and then sign DeAndre Jordan with the non-taxpayer mid-level exception?

Other than the Lakers, Houston is best positioned to prioritize the present and pretend the future doesn’t exist. If they strike out in free agency, Morey will enter the trade game willing to offer as many future first-round picks as the league will allow, then cross that bridge when he gets there.

Milwaukee Bucks

Bringing back every piece from last year’s conference finalist won’t be easy, but the Bucks have options. Middleton and Malcolm Brogdon have extremely low cap holds relative to their value. If they’re somehow able to dump Ersan Ilyasova and reroute Jon Leuer elsewhere, they’ll have enough space to do something seismic. Like, say, sign Horford to a four-year max contract.

General manager Jon Horst may not be able to pull all that off — it’s not even clear if he even should. Still, if the Bucks dump Ilyasova’s $7 million expiring contract, they won’t have to go deep into the luxury tax, assuming it takes about $35 million annually to keep Brogdon and Lopez, and assuming Middleton receives a max contract.

Rolling it back may be enough to win it all. It could also eventually push Antetokounmpo out the door a couple summers from now if the team stagnates.

San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder

Even though both are likely to operate above the cap in July, any team with two All-Stars close to their prime should be in win-now mode.

If Murray blows up next year, the Spurs should be more inclined to step outside their modus operandi and exchange assets (Derrick White and future first-round picks) to upgrade the here and now. If not, the Spurs are just as likely to swivel in the opposite direction and deal DeMar DeRozan and/or LaMarcus Aldridge to another contender that believes either one can put them over the edge.

Aldridge, in particular, is an ideal right-hand man or third wheel on a makeshift super team. What if the Spurs offer him and Bryn Forbes to the Thunder for Adams and 2019 first-round pick Darius Bazley? The Thunder are in financial ruin, so this move gives them a path to cap space in 2021. They don’t have a young talent like Murray on the roster, but if Sam Presti can finally find a shooter in free agency (prayer hands emoji), Paul George, Russell Westbrook, and Aldridge would be a fierce trio.

Portland Trail Blazers

They just made Western Conference Finals without one of their three best players. Lillard is the baddest dude in the NBA. McCollum single-handedly won a Game 7 on the road. Collins should make a leap in his third year. They don’t have any cap space and will likely lose a few key contributors from their playoff run (exchanging Evan Turner for Kent Bazemore likely means Rodney Hood is likely gone), but if Portland feels like it can break through to win it all, it has several expiring contracts it can attach to draft picks and/or young talent. (Love is one possible target.)

With new contracts for Lillard and McCollum on the horizon, now is the time for this organization to strike.

Utah Jazz

Trading for Mike Conley was a firm admission that a more dynamic offense is necessary if the Jazz want to do anything meaningful in the playoffs. Instead of running it back with supplements who either can’t shoot or are unable to create, they essentially swapped those out—Ricky Rubio, Jae Crowder, and Kyle Korver—for someone who can do both at an All-Star level.

Conley is not Kyle Lowry and Mitchell is not Leonard, but both members of Utah’s new-look backcourt will be even more effective when able to avoid the other team’s best perimeter defender. Less will be more for Conely, who’ll look more like he’s 29 than 32, and for Mitchell, who no longer has to carry such a heavy offensive load.

If the Warriors won the title, with Durant earning his third straight Finals MVP and then re-signing for five years, would Utah have traded Crowder, Korver, Grayson Allen and two first-round draft picks for Conley? Perhaps they would’ve shopped around for another point guard in free agency instead. But the Warriors are in no position to run it back, so the Jazz went for it, forking over stuff that should yield more on-court production in 2-5 years for the chance to make a run now.

If they renounce their other free agents and waive Derrick Favors, they should have roughly $16 million to spend in free agency. Nikola Mirotic would be nice. How about Marcus Morris? Making the Finals before Gobert reaches his third contract should be the goal.

Boston Celtics

Losing Irving and Horford would normally be a disqualifying setback, but it shouldn’t be too hard for Boston to convince itself that everything is OK. They still have several critical pieces that dragged them to the Eastern Conference Finals in 2018, plus a healthier Gordon Hayward and an easy path to open up enough cap space to offer a max contract.

The Celtics will pursue meetings with Walker, Vucevic, and/or Russell, or spread that money around to non-max players with useful playoff experience–DeAndre Jordan, Derrick Favors, and Patrick Beverley come to mind. They can also use their cap space to absorb talented players from teams that are looking to get off money, loosen a positional logjam, or kick the can down the road. Names like Steven Adams, Danilo Gallinari, Clint Capela, Myles Turner, Aaron Gordon, and Josh Richardson fit there.

If the Celtics’ Plan A and B don’t materialize, they can take unwanted contracts, add more assets, and wait for another capital-S superstar to hit the market. But the current roster is too good to tank or rebuild, so a win-now push should be the move. If Boston lands a max-contract player in free agency and storms out of the gates, it has several valuable draft picks to dangle for an upgrade at the trade deadline. Everything that broke terribly for them in 2019 can easily go the other way in 2020.

Philadelphia 76ers

The Sixers are at the mercy of their own free agents, but if Butler and/or Tobias Harris walk, they’d be in position to open up max space and go shopping. Just about everything written for the Celtics applies to Philly, as well, if those two and J.J. Redick leave. If they re-sign, Philly won’t have as many tradable assets as they’d like – those were used last season to get Butler and Harris – but aren’t entirely depleted of young talent. Three-point shooting continues to be a priority.

Denver Nuggets

Assuming they keep Paul Millsap, the Nuggets will enter next season with him, Jokic, Murray, a sensible supporting cast that has upside, continuity, the collective motivation spawned by postseason heartbreak, and intriguing trade assets. That’s a lot!

Denver has flirted with life as a real free agent destination for a couple years and they should finally feel confident enough to act like one. Pick up Millsap’s team option, attach a first-round pick to move Will Barton’s contract, and see what’s out there. If successful, a path to max space exists next summer, when someone like Draymond Green can enter the frame. But now we’re getting ahead of ourselves.

If Denver picks up Millsap’s option, it can stay under the luxury tax and still use the non-taxpayer mid-level exception. (If they let Millsap go and dump Barton’s contract, they can open up about $30 million to spend elsewhere.) Will Denver care about next summer’s potential flexibility, which will evaporate once Murray’s next contract kicks in? How about packaging young Michael Porter Jr. for a win-now contributor?

The Nuggets have a bright future, but if they feel like another player or two can put them over the top in 2020, they shouldn’t wait.

Brooklyn Nets

If they essentially swap Russell for Irving and, say, Butler (who’s fond of Irving and privately viewed him as an ideal running mate before Irving’s tenure with the Celtics), that’s a beast. The Nets then would still have team-friendly contracts owed to Spencer Dinwiddie and Caris LeVert that they can either sit on and enjoy, or dangle for a talent upgrade.

Toronto Raptors or Los Angeles Clippers

Leonard’s decision will ultimately dictate which one of these teams can call itself a contender. If he re-signs with Toronto, this is self-explanatory. If he goes to the Clippers, they can easily clear enough space to add another star by unloading Gallinari.

Kawhi + another max player + Lou Williams/Montrezl Harrell pick-and-rolls + sophomore Shai Gilgeous-Alexander + sophomore Landry Shamet + Doc Rivers + Miami’s 2021 first-round pick as a sexy trade chip = Unadulterated Terror.

Golden State Warriors

Without too many options and understandable exhaustion setting in, the Warriors may treat 2020 as a bridge year to recharge their batteries and make another run the following season. But wasting a nanosecond of Curry and Green’s primes doesn’t feel right, even if Durant re-signs. Count this organization out at your own peril.

New Orleans Pelicans

This team has lots of cap space and a straightforward sales pitch to any quality free agent: Look at our young talent, and help us shock the world.

New Orleans can sign someone like Horford to a contract that starts around $30 million, or be able to absorb Love’s deal, which starts at $28.9 million. Say they get Cleveland’s big man – who’s already very familiar with Pelicans Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations David Griffin – for one of the Lakers picks snatched in the Anthony Davis trade. That’d give them a starting lineup of Lonzo Ball, Jrue Holiday, Brandon Ingram, Zion Williamson, and Love, with E’Twaun Moore, Jaxson Hayes, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Josh Hart, and Jahlil Okafor off the bench. This is a very good rotation!

What if Williamson has the same immediate impact as Blake Griffin? What if New Orleans establishes itself as a playoff threat? What if a third star, (a la Beal) becomes available at the trade deadline? If all those things happen, the Pelicans have the contracts and assets to get that move done without surrendering any of the three rookies they just drafted.

A Beal-Love-Holiday-Williamson quartet is … enough to make the Finals? You can at least imagine it, which sums up the ridiculousness that’s about to unfold across the league.

The Honey Badger is on the move.

Defensive back Tyrann Mathieu agreed to a one-year deal Friday with the Houston Texans.

Mathieu, 25, was released by the Arizona Cardinals on Wednesday after refusing to take a pay cut.

In Houston, the former all-pro becomes the latest part of a reworked defense looking to make a surge after ranking last in points allowed with 27.3 per game. The Texans also signed cornerback Aaron Colvin to a four-year deal worth $34 million.

Three-time defensive player of the year J.J. Watt and outside linebacker Whitney Mercilus also missed a majority of the year with knee injuries.
