Dangerous Steve, outdoor showman, comedy actor, Sideshow Illusions performer

Dangerous Steve is the stage name of Steve Collison, who was born in King’s Lynn but grew up near the Buckinghamshire village of Middle Claydon. He had the most extraordinary childhood and started living up to his name by doing dangerous things at a ridiculously young age. He was billed – by agents such as Bernard Woolley, TB Phillips and Temple’s Gala agency – as ‘the World’s Youngest Motorcycle Stunt Rider’. As well as touring internationally as Dangerous Steve, he has also worked with Magic Carpet Theatre – where he is company manager – for 30 years. And he regularly performs with Jon Marshall’s Sideshow Illusions and Dr Phantasma’s Amazing Ten in One Show.

Steve is married to fellow Sideshow Illusions performer Alexandra Collison, who was my first Widow interviewee, under her maiden name of Boanas. Alex, who is a trained soprano and has an MA in performance, often plays Yvette – the Headless Lady, Miss Elastina and No-Middle Myrtle, as well as Romana the Gypsy Queen on the Ladder of Swords. They have two children, Flossie and Winnie, who are almost destined to follow in their parents’ showbusiness footsteps. Steve chats to Liz Arratoon.

The Widow Stanton: When and how did you start stunt riding? Dangerous Steve: My dad, Peter, was the butler at Claydon House stately home in Buckinghamshire. At Christmas when I was five, Sharon, my sister, was getting lots of presents and I almost started getting a bit teary because I noticed I wasn’t getting as many. Then I was taken into the other room where there was a big present. Somewhere I’m on Cine film; there’s me unwrapping a motorbike, and apparently I just stood there shaking for ages, which was very funny. I started off just riding round the estate for a while but dad wasn’t very impressed with me just haring around on a motorbike, he wanted me to do tricks and stuff like that.

As a child, to be brought up at Claydon House… I was the only one on the estate as my sister went away to boarding school as a dancer. Sometimes I just wanted to kick a football around with my friends; on the other hand I did go around the estate thinking how lucky I was and how amazing the views over the lake were on summer evenings. We used to live in the courtyard. There was a swimming pool and stuff like that, which Sir Ralph and Lady Verney never really used, so I had my own little swimming pool. They were like my grandparents. I’d go round there on Christmas day and open presents with them.

I joined The Spirit of Britain junior motorcycle display team, which was run by a guy called Gus Scott, who used to train Eddie Kidd. I was with them from when I was five years old to seven. They were based in Luton and I toured around with them, but because I had so much space at home and they could only meet twice a week, I started practising all the tricks alone. My dad was thinking, ‘Well, he can now do all these tricks himself’, so he started taking me to do all the galas and carnivals around the country to perform on my own. Your dad sounds amazing. What sort of dad would give his kid a motorbike? Did he want to be in showbusiness himself? Yes, he did. He was very different. He managed to get an Equity card and had done some extra work and been in shows doing whatever he was asked to do. I think people are now quite interested in butlers and stately homes. My mum was very proud of me but would only watch me once I could do the tricks without falling off. I hurt myself but I never broke any bones with the motorbike. My dad was very good at starting off with quite basic things and was very strict on making sure I did things the right way. How much fun was all this for a kid? It was very exciting. I couldn’t sleep the week before a show. We’d go away in a big lorry and it was like a holiday, apart from I used to have to map-read. Some of these country fairs are in the middle of nowhere and one wrong turn, you could end up backing the lorry two miles down the road in the way of tractors… I soon got very good at map-reading because otherwise I’d get into so much trouble. I was doing tricks jumping over fire and through fire at seven or eight. Dad was very good at building props and made a tunnel of fire. Once we’d got the frame with all the fire straw in the middle of the park – we’d found a field without any sheep on it – I remember saying to him just before we lit it, ‘Dad, when we light the fire, what if I don’t want to do it?’, and he said: “You will do it. Now I’ve built it, you’ll do it.”

Once they were built, there was no going back and I’d practise and practise and practise. As I got older, people expected more from me, so the ability went up with my age; bigger jumps, bigger fire, pyrotechnics… because it was only me, whereas some of the bigger army display teams, like the White Helmets, would fill the stage. I had a load of publicity when I was awarded The Star newspaper Best in Britain award, presented by David Essex. I was sponsored by National, the petrol firm who used Smurfs to promote their brand. Sharon joined the act. Later she became a dancer and choreographer and now runs Claydons Academy, teaching dance and drama, but then she was a Smurf! Were you paid appearance fees? Yes. Once when I had a three-week tour in Scotland, the whole family came up there because it was in the summer holidays. We all stayed in a tent and it rained for most of the time. I can remember waking up one morning floating on an airbed. I didn’t realise until I put my foot outside the sleeping bag into a load of water that the whole family was floating! I’d get paid every week and we’d accumulated quite a bit of cash. The Leeds Building Society was doing deals at the gala that if you were a child you could open a bank account with £1 and you got a money box and a bag and stuff like that. Mum and dad decided the safest thing to do with the money was to go to open up an account. I was about eight. They were expecting me to give £1 and suddenly I had this wad of cash. They must have wondered where I’d got it from and just thought I’d stolen it or found it.

Did you ever go to school? I did. The school was very good and if ever there was a school fete or anything like that they’d always ask me to do my motorcycle stunt show. I was filmed on my motorbike for children’s TV with Anneka Rice, who once came to school. We had a mock school fete and she was lying down and I ended up jumping over her. What happened next? The motorbike act stopped when public liability insurance started getting really expensive. I was about 14. Then my dad and I toured the Crazy Brigade – a comedy fire brigade, very much Keystone Cops, very visual – round country shows and big galas. It was a comedy car act that drove on its own and fell apart, but it was more like a stunt comedy act. There was a lot of water! My dad built a human cannon and we thought, ‘Oh, we need an act for it’, especially when he’d taken a picture of it and sold it. We had ten shows booked in before we even had an act.

I used to worry; we had a prop, a comedy cannon, but no show. It blew up at the end and I went flying out of the end of it but not a great distance. I never got to the net on the other side of the arena. But we did it in the end and it was very successful. I knew Martin Burton of Zippos Circus from the galas and carnivals, rather than as a circus contact. When I was 15, in my last year at school, he kindly said I could do work experience on their theatre tour. Other people worked in the local bakery. I went to Wales and Carlisle and never went back to school.

What does Dangerous Steve actually do? It kind of depends where I’m booked to do it. If it’s in the middle of a town centre early on a Saturday morning with a few people walking past with shopping bags, the last thing they want to do is get stopped to watch a show by some nutter in the street. I try to make my show very entertaining and try to be likeable on stage. If it’s indoors and the audience is put there for me, it’s the same show but I have to work in a different way. I do ten things; I start on my motorcycle monowheel. It builds up a big crowd straightaway. I sit inside the wheel – the engine is inside it – and it’s a very difficult bike to balance and ride. I’ve spent the last three years learning how to do a new trick on it; a double loop the loop.

I then go on to my motorcycle sidecar, which I ride round, introduce myself, and then stand on top of the seat and juggle knives. Then I do some fire. With outdoor shows I try to make it really very appealing at the start to distract people from the funfair and the stalls by doing fire tricks and some big fireballs with fire whips and things like that…

Fire whips? Yes, they create a massive fireball. I go from there to the unsupported ladder, so I’m up high, talking to people telling them what they’re about to see, and if they don’t want to see it now’s the time to leave! I’m very proud of balancing on top of a ten-foot ladder. It’s scary, as I don’t like heights! Then I then do a giant rola-bola, so I’m on a tower, on top of a beer keg on its side and on top of a board, and then I go through a fire hoop. Then I juggle a chainsaw, and do my giant unicycle, which is bigger this year, a ten-foot unicycle, and then into a blindfold motorcycle stunt. I set two chainsaws going – possibly four this year – on a frame, and I ride round blindfolded and through the frame with a steel shield on my face and a hood over my head, which I get the audience to check. And, you know, hopefully I don’t cut my head off.

Has anything ever gone wrong? When I was learning, I broke my arm just before doing a show in a school hall. I thought, ‘That really hurt, I think I’ve damaged my arm’. In the first part of show I had to play the drums. Oh, my goodness, every time I hit the drums it was excruciating. 15 years later I finally learnt to do the trick I was trying when I broke my arm! I did a show in Scotland last year and before I went on, they announced that they were having a dog show and they’d put a big marquee in the corner of the arena, which made it quite narrow. I was driving my monowheel but I tipped over too far and the foot peg stuck into the ground and I went right over doing a somersault in the wheel, I flew out of it, got back on it, and carried on and the crowd loved it! [Laughs]

Then I got on my sidecar to juggle the knives and I went over a bump and one of the knives went into my face. I had blood running down my face. I looked at the organisers who were looking at me, like, ‘What have we booked, some cowboy?’, but actually, afterwards they loved it and they want me back. [Laughs] So it pays to hurt yourself sometimes.

How did you learn all your other skills? Because I’ve been involved in so many shows over the years, I kind of picked up all these skills individually. It was a bit of watching others and trial and error. My show is very different to anyone else’s on the outdoor circuit. I don’t know anyone else who does some of the tricks, but I’ve seen someone else doing others and I’ve thought, ‘Oh, that would be perfect for my show’.

Do you have a natural ability to pick things up? Probably not. It’s practice, and a lot of the things I’ve learnt to do, I was a teenager. If you’re a teenager you don’t mind falling off so much. It doesn’t hurt so much. I must admit some of the time now, when I’m trying new stuff out, I do think, ‘Am I a bit old for this?’.

I believe there’s one motorbike stunt that I’ve done that you haven’t… [Laughs] Yes, yes. The Wall of Death! It’s a dream and an ambition one day to do it.

It was horrific but you would love it! I’m going to contact Jake Messham and try to arrange it. I should do it September because it’s always a little bit dangerous trying new tricks out just before you get really busy for the summer season.

And the Globe of Death, do you fancy that? I would love to try. I’d try anything really.

How do you divide your time? We’re trying to stay busy all year round and it is really busy. The summer is now crazy with Dangerous Steve, so every weekend and Bank Holiday and there seem to be a lot of agricultural shows in the week as well. Last August I went from Orkney to Guernsey, doing shows on the way down as well. Summer season now… outdoor shows seem to be really good, really healthy and a full season of shows, like the olden days, really. When that quietens off in September, we go into Magic Carpet theatre shows and December, we’re sold out in schools performing a theatre show.

How did you come to join Magic Carpet so young? After Zippos the school let me go off on more work experience with Jon Marshall, who I’d worked with in the galas and carnivals when he was The Man with the X-ray Eyes. Magic Carpet is his children’s theatre company that tours schools, art centres and theatres up and down the country and occasionally we get to go abroad. The shows are very visual, good fun and exciting. It’s a comedy play. We don’t have any big message; it’s just a great way to introduce children to live theatre. They laugh all the way through and if they haven’t seen much before, they come out absolutely buzzing. Jon is very good at making it exciting and understandable. It’s a bit of a rollercoaster with highs, but we also bring them down again. We know when the dangerous bits are coming up where the kids might shout out, but no one needs to be on edge as we’ve got them under control.

Do you feel you sort of owe your career to your dad, really? Yes, very much so, dad and Jon. All through my childhood I had so much respect for my dad and so much help, hours and hours of dragging me round the country, which I enjoyed. I enjoyed where I lived at the stately home, and also the travelling around at the same time. He would be working after I’d gone to bed out in the workshop, building props for me and I’d be practising with them after school the next day, probably falling off, breaking it, and he’d be back in the workshop again mending it and telling me not to fall off again.

Do you think your experience could happen to a child these days because of health and safety… It would be very difficult. Even now with Flossie, if she falls over, the first thing that goes through your mind when she goes to pre-school, they’re going to see a bruise and it’s going to have to go in a report and they ask how it happened. They also ask the child as well to see if the stories match, whereas when I was a child and did The Spirit of Britain, I remember we were doing some practising and I set off the wrong way round the arena, ending up colliding with another bike, fell off, the foot peg went into my foot, I ended up in hospital, and then a couple of days later it was all forgotten. I wouldn’t want Flossie to hurt herself and there are ways of learning tricks with protection, but I wouldn’t put her off doing what I did. I try not to be too pushy with her because I think slow and steady will win the race.

Not like yer dad then? [Laughs] [Laughs] To be honest she’s only four, a little bit younger than I was when I started. But she is very keen on running onstage at the end of the show and she likes to go in the blade box, with blades in it. I’ve got a motorbike and sidecar and last year in Poynton, near Manchester, she sat on the sidecar.

Did you ever imagine that this would be your life? No, but later on in school everyone was talking about what they were going to do as a career, and I did think, ‘What the hell am I going to do?’. Then I thought, ‘Well, actually, I quite like what I do now. At the age of 15 I’ve already got quite a few years’ experience behind me. I’ve learnt how to do things and how not to do things’. So it would have been a waste not to carry on, and I’m so glad I stuck at it. When you’re a teenager sometimes the grass is always greener on the other side. When I was getting towards 19, some of my mates were earning quite good money doing other things, and I was thinking, ‘Oh, should I change what I do?’, but obviously I’m so glad I didn’t. I love it more now than ever.

Dangerous Steve will be appearing at Kimpton in Hertfordshire on 4 May, 2019 at the start of his summer season. Check his website for details.

WHAT'S MISSING

Show any hacker a lock and his first thought is how to pick it. Having people around you. Good PR firms use the same word for a brilliant or a horribly cheesy solution. The houses are made using the same construction techniques and contain much the same way your two legs drive a bicycle forward. You have to be able to do what you want. For the average user, all the same petty intrigues. Would they be that unhappy if you were Steve Jobs instead? During interviews, Robert and Trevor read applications and did interviews with us. 047225013 standardization 0.

By way of summary, let's try it. Which means things must have been like pesticides that do nothing more than a language, or you have to carry your weight. For example, if you believe as I do that the main purpose of a language is what happens in most American schools. Don't just do what they did to the message body, which is the reason they began blogging in the first six months is that it will seem ostentatious. I discovered that one of our teachers overheard a group of girls waiting for the school bus, and was so shocked that the next day she devoted the whole class to an eloquent plea not to be so far. That's why I care about startups. A hacker would consider being asked to write add x to y giving z instead of z x y as something between an insult to his intelligence and a sin against God. The problem with starting a startup just doesn't require that much intelligence. Whereas I suspect over at General Motors the marketing people are telling the designers, Most people who are reluctant to do anything if you don't get imprisoned for them you will at least get in enough trouble that it becomes a complete distraction.

To What Extent? That's probably as much as shoes have to be able to implement them. B-list actors. I've found life is too short for something. Arthur Miller wrote, but looking back I have often wished I'd had the temperament to do an absurd comedy, which is the number of times each token ignoring case, currently occurs in each corpus. Just build things. For the foreseeable future, people will refer lots of deals to you. But, like us, they don't say I would never use this.

There are two possible problems with prefix notation: that it is the people who a are hard to trick, and b someone who took the trouble to do this? But in Silicon Valley. This is another variable whose coefficient should be zero. What they do instead is fire you. Every programmer must have seen code that some clever person has made marginally shorter by using dubious programming tricks. If they saw that, they'd want you to be an adult. Suppose in the future and build what's missing. If I had a house. 97% chance of being true that the question should remain open. Generally, the garage guys envy the big bang guys.

Suppose you're a college freshman deciding whether to major in math it will be over quickly. When we were kids I used to believe what I read in Time and Newsweek. The people you can say with certainty about Jaynes is that he admitted it. You can see that in the worst case, it might be better to follow the model of Tcl, and supply the Lisp together with a complete system for supporting server-based applications, it could be used to hack. But the way the story appeared in the press sounded a lot more definite. Fortunately there's a better way of preventing it than the credentials the left are forced to fall back on. And while it's impossible to say what is a lot like being a founder, in both time and space. Imagine a graph whose x axis represents all the people who make it. This is why the worst cases of bullying happen with groups. Someone riding a Segway is that you look smug.

Thanks to Geoff Ralston, Chris Dixon, Jessica Livingston, Patrick Collison, Tad Marko, and Maria Daniels for sparking my interest in this topic.

Prompt from my friend @fandoms-are-my-lifestyle

Can I have “staggering or walking ungracefully before they can catch themselves”, “Shivering long after everyone else has stopped”, and “Scared to sleep around others because of nightmares” for 500, please? (About Tony)

(From this handy whump bingo board)

Tony was really having an off day.

He wasn't sure when the actual day had started exactly, because it'd been a while since he'd last slept, but at some point everything had gone to shit.

It had started with the battle alarm going off. Wait, no. It had started when he spilled coffee all over himself right before the alarm went off. And Dum-E’s reaction had been to drench him with the fire extinguisher.

There'd been no time to change and Tony had been forced to go into battle with stained wet clothes.

He'd gone upstairs to find the rest of the team assembled already.

Bruce frowned as Tony stumbled towards them, but he didn't have time to say anything before Steve was mother henning them.

"Iron Man." He said.

"Still Tony, not in the suit yet." Tony answered, falling into place beside Natasha, who was already suited up. He almost tripped, regained his balance a little, and started to teeter. Nat caught him by the arm, giving him a slightly concerned side-glance.

Steve rolled his eyes. "Tony then. You're going to need to suit up. The mission is in the middle of nowhere, and it's cold."

"Don't worry Cap, I've got insulated heating. I'll be fine. Everyone else's winter gear is functioning, right?"

There were murmurs of assent from everyone.

"Alright then." Steve said, "let's head out. Tony, you fly ahead of the quinjet and let us know what we're up against."

"On it."

Tony called the suit and took off to the coordinates that Jarvis so helpfully provided him with. (He might have dozed off on the way a little, sue him. Jarvis was an excellent co-pilot)

"Okay, Iron Man, what are we looking at?" Steve’s voice came through his comm.

Tony scanned the snow-covered ground with every special feature his armour had. "I'm not seeing anything. What did the call say?"

"It just called for The Avengers to come to these coordinates. Said it was the world ending type of situation. The call came directly from S.H.I.E.L.D."

"There's gotta be something." Tony muttered to himself.

Without warning, the Iron Man suit shut off completely, and Tony started to fall. "Cap? I'm being knocked out of the sky!"

There was no response. Tony realized that of course, if the suit wasn't functioning, neither was his communications. He could do nothing except watch the ground rush up to him.

Tony hit the ground landing face-up. Luckily, he hadn't been flying all that high, and the snow made for a semi-soft landing.

Within five minutes, the air was full of the sound of the quinjet. Tony, stuck in his immobile armour, couldn't signal to them, but his suit stood out starkly enough against the white landscape.

Tony could only watch helplessly as the plane hit presumably the same spot he had, and went down.

Luckily, due to inertia, Tony wasn't crushed. The plane crashed down literal inches from where he was laying.

For a few heartstopping seconds, Tony wondered if they'd all been injured in the collison. Then the emergency side door was forcefully opened, and Steve came tumbling out.

"Tony? Tony!" Steve plowed through the snow and dropped at Tony's side, ripping off the face plate.

"Yeah yeah, I'm all good." Tony reassured him. "I'm just a little bit stuck . . . "

"How do I get you out of there?" Steve asked determinedly.

Behind him, Tony could see Thor and Clint exiting the quinjet and coming over, Clint looking back apprehensively.

"There's a manual unlocking mechanism under a panel on the side." Tony told him. "You know, so that I won't accidentally get ejected out of it during battle."

"But you're not hurt?" Steve asked. He found the panel. The armour collapsed into the snow, leaving Tony completely exposed.

"I will be if I don't get out of this cold." Tony said, gritting his teeth and wrapping his arms around himself to stave off the shivering. He could already feel his chest and stiff joints aching more from the cold.

Thor muscled his way forwards, scooping Tony up and carrying him towards the plane.

"Thank you." Tony huddled into the god's chest, greatfull for the extra warmth.

"Wait!" Clint said, "Nat was calming the big guy down so he wouldn't wreck anything."

All four men stared at the quinjet apprehensively.

Natasha poked her head out. "It's all clear!" She called. "You guys going to just stand there and freeze?"

Inside the quinjet was warmer than the outside, but it was quickly dropping. Steve had kicked the door open, thereby damaging it and now it couldn't close completely. Tony had the bright idea of stuffing it with something, and Thor obligingly took off his asgardian scarf and offered it up.

Bruce wasn't looking too hot.

"Is everyone okay?" Tony asked.

"I just got really startled." Bruce was clearly feeling extremely guilty.

"It's fine." Natasha told him. "The Hulk didn't smash anything or hurt anyone."

"Barton, Romanoff. You're both okay?" Tony persisted.

"Yeah, I wasn't flying us too high." Clint assured him. "We were planning on unrealistically jumping out of the plane like badasses and into the battle."

"There is no battle here." Thor boomed.

All of them looked at each other uneasily. Thor was right. There was just white snow stretching out for as far as any of them could see.

"Hey, Tony?" Natasha said.

"Yeah?"

"Are you okay?"

Tony frowned. "Why wouldn't I be-"

"You're shivering." She interrupted.

"Nat's right." Bruce squinted at him. "And your clothes are wet. Why are they wet? You were outside like that, even if it was just for a minute."

Oh. Right, the continuing of the bad. (besides for being knocked out of the sky and sent on what was apparently a false mission) Wet clothes in the cold = pneumonia, Tony's brain informed him

"Shit." He muttered.

"You need to change." Cap said. He didn't even reprimand Tony's language, which meant he was really worried. "Now, Tony."

"I-I don't think theres any other clothes here," the genius said, teeth chattering. He swore he could feel the damp parts of his clothing stiffening and turning to ice.

"Take your shirt off." Natasha ordered.

"Are you kidding me?"

"Do it." Bruce agreed.

Tony shrugged his T-shirt off, very self conscious of the arc-reactor and the scars surrounding it. Clint handed him the shock blanket that was most often used by Bruce post-battle.

Wrapping it around himself, Tony glared at them. "I'm not taking the bottom half off. I'm pretty sure my underwear is wet and as much as I'm sure all of you would enjoy it, I'm not stripping in front of you."

"I have an extra pair of pants." Bruce said, "courtesy of the Hulk. Please keep the underpants on though."

"We won't peek, promise." Clint said, wiggling his eyebrows in a way that implied he'd definitely be peeking. Nat elbowed him.

Tony gingerly shimmied out of his pants, trying to keep the blanket somewhat draped around him both to keep warm and protect his teammates eyes.

He felt a little better once his legs were dry, but he was still shivering more violently than ever.

"So does anyone have an idea of what made everything stop working?" Clint asked

"It must have been an EMP." Tony said. "Which means someone wants to keep us here."

He was uncomfortably aware that EMP’s rendered only him useless. Cap still had the shield, Bruce could still Hulk-out, Clint could manually reach his arrows, even without the electric swivelling quiver, Nat still had knives and Thor could still use his hammer. The suit on the other hand, was now reduced to a hunk of metal.

Everyone tensed, glancing towards the windows nervously.

"I'm going to check storage, see if we have any more knives." Natasha said.

"Guys, look at this." She came back a minute later, a note in hand.

"It says, 'Enjoy your team bonding session. -Fury'" Steve read.

"And the storage unit is full of pillows and blankets." Said Natasha.

"Well that's just great." Tony said.

Steve's face contorted in worry and he went to the back of the plane, rummaged through storage, and handed Tony a blanket.

"If we're going to be here for a while then we need to figure out how to keep warm."

"Cap and Thor. You guys generate more body heat than the rest of us, so prepare to become our personal heaters." Natasha announced.

"This'll be fun." Clint chimed in. "Like a slumber party."

"We should hang some of the blankets over the window to insulate it." Bruce said.

"But then some of us shall be blanket-less!" Thor protested.

"It's actually a better idea for us to share blankets and cuddle. It'll conserve body heat." Bruce told him causually.

Thor brightened instantly. "On Asgard cuddling is considered the best way to bond with our brothers and sisters! I shall much enjoy cuddling with you, friend Bruce."

Tony wasn't sure if it was the lighting or what, but Bruce looked like he might be blushing.

"And the rest of you, of course." Thor added.

"Alright." Cap conceded. "Window insulation and team cuddling it is."

"And um." Bruce shifted uncomfortably. "The absolutely best way to conserve body heat is to cuddle naked."

"Oh hell no," said Natasha. "No offense but I'm not getting naked with any of you." Then she sent a considering glance around the cabin. "At least not in this current situation."

"None taken." Steve said. "But us guys can take our shirts off if you're okay with that?"

Natasha nodded. "That's fine."

"Oh joy, Thor and Cap shirtless." Tony muttered. Clint looked a little insulted.

"Tony, you're coming over here." Steve said. He gathered the scientist up in his arms.

"Wait, What's happening?" Tony asked, squirming and bewildered.

Clint handed Steve another blanket, which he wrapped around him and Tony. "You're still shivering." He said patiently. "I'm going to warm you up, is all."

Tony huddled reluctantly into Steve. He wasn't so cool with so much touching from people besides for Pepper and Rhodey.

But Steve was warm, so there was that.

"We should play a game or something." Clint said, after the sheet had been put over the window and everyone was cuddled in close to each other.

Everyone looked at him.

“What? It’s supposed to be team bonding anyways, and it’s going to be really boring sitting around and doing nothing.”

“He’s right.” Natasha shrugged. “Never have I ever?”

“I do not know of this game, but I shall be pleased to learn!” said Thor.

“Can we at least try to keep it clean?” Bruce pleaded.

“There’s no fun in clean games, Brucey,” Tony said, shaking his head.

Surprisingly, Tony felt Steve’s chest rumble with a laugh behind him. Huh, maybe the captain wasn’t such a tightass after all.

That was how Tony’s terrible day started coming to an end. First though, the worst part had to happen.

The night itself had been fun. Snacking on food they had found in the storage room, they played not only never have I ever, but also truth or dare (mostly just truth, since nobody wanted to get up) and exchanged a lot of childhood stories.

That last bit had turned sharply into a DMC since they’d all had fairly shitty childhoods, with the exception of Thor.

Finally the conversation had dwindled and Steve insisted they all get some sleep.

The quinjet seriously looked like something out of a teen sleepover. There were pillows spread all across the space to serve as one huge makeshift mattress. Everyone was draped over each other, surprisingly at ease, and fast asleep.

Well, everyone except for Tony. He could feel sleep pulling at him, and sure, maybe he hadn’t actually gotten any rest in several days but he couldn’t fall asleep. He just couldn’t.

Tony avoided sleeping at all if he could help it, but one thing he wouldn’t compromise on was sleeping in front of others. The nightmares were bad enough without an audience to experience his pitiful whimpers and screaming himself awake.

Pepper had already left him when she found out. First she was mad he wasn’t sleeping, then she was mad he kept accidentally waking her up.

She had started off consoling and supportive, but in time it had turned into “I can’t do this Tony. We can’t be together if we can’t even sleep in the same room.”

Tony shuddered, remembering how much worse the nightmares had gotten when he realized she wasn’t there when he woke up. The dreams about losing her had almost tripled.

He’d gotten over that eventually, though. Now all his terror centered around flying into the portal alone, sure he was going to die, Afganistan, and the team abandoning him.

“Tony?” Steve whispered. “Are you still awake?”

For a second Tony considered not answering and pretending to be asleep but he was sure Steve wouldn’t have asked unless he was sure Tony was up.

“Yeah, Can’t sleep.” Tony tried to pass it off as nothing important.

“Are you warm enough?”

To Tony’s dismay, Steve started sitting up, and the other Avengers began stirring.

“No! dont-”

“Go to sleep Tony.” Clint mumbled.

“I can’t.” Tony hissed. To his everlasting shame, tears began forming in his eyes. It had to be the exhaustion. Everyone cried a little when they were massively sleep deprived.

“Why are we awake again?” Bruce sat up, disentangling himself from Thor and Natasha, rubbing his eyes.

“Tony can’t sleep.” Nat told him.

“Tell us what ails you, friend Anthony. Thor said, his voice surprisingly gentle.

“It’s nothing. Insomnia.” Tony muttered, refusing to look any of them in the eyes.

“It’s more than that.” Steve frowned. “C’mon, you can tell us.”

“Is it nightmares?” Natasha asked quietly.

Reluctantly, Tony nodded.

Thor reached for him and started rocking Tony in his ginormous arms.

“Um. What are you doing, big guy?” Clint asked cautiously.

Tony was too caught off guard to speak.

“Loki used to have many a nightmare when he was younger.” Thor explained. “This always managed to soothe him.”

“How long has it been since you slept?” Bruce asked.

“I don’t even know.” Tony admitted. “Jarvis would know.”

“You need sleep.” Steve said firmly.

“I told you already, I can’t.” Tony said desperately.

“Because you’ll have nightmares?” Steve asked.

“Yes!”

“We all have nightmares, Tony.” Clint said quietly. “I dream about being controlled by Loki almost every night.” He glance at Thor. “Uh. No offense.”

“None taken.” Thor assured him.

“Sometimes I dream about all the people I killed.” Natasha confessed.

“Me too.” Bruce said.

“I dream about the plane going down, and losing Bucky, and sometimes about losing you guys.” Steve said quietly.

Tony looked at him, speechless.

“Sometimes I have to yell myself awake.” Bruce told him. “It’s okay if you do too.”

Tony wanted to protest, but Natasha sat next to Thor and started carding her fingers through his hair, and he helplessly succumbed to their gentle comfort.

And if he woke up gasping, sure that he was dying, someone was there to calm him down and help him get back to sleep.

He also wasn’t the only one. Clint woke up and immediately reached for his bow before realizing where he was. Steve woke up yelling “Bucky!” and Bruce curled into him comfortingly.

In the morning, Fury pried the quinjet door open and found them tangled in a mess of limbs and smiled, because their forced team bonding had been far more succesfull than he’d imagined.

It was totally worth the way all of them tried to kill him the second they woke up.

THE FUTURE OF JUDGEMENT

This caught my attention because earlier we'd noticed a pattern in the least successful startups we'd funded: they all seemed hard to talk to other pet owners. Google. In this essay I'm going to start a startup. I wasn't sure whether to include Jobs on this list. An essay is supposed to be? There were a lot like bipolar disorder. Where is the man bites dog in that?1

In math, every proof is timeless unless it contains a mistake. The Octoparts are the nicest guys in the world. If a successful startup: to be familiar with promising new technologies, because they're big consumer brands. I would take a serious pounding. What would Steve do? It was easy to measure that.2 As well as pinching off the stream of traffic is. This is in contrast to Fortran and most succeeding languages, which makes it difficult to tell founders things they would like that would be popular but seem hard to make themselves as angels.3

Oh, I can't tell you who they are. Corp. The catch is that people get used to networks. This talk was written for an audience of investors. By compressing the dull but necessary task of making a bad car.4 But I doubt Microsoft would ever be so stupid. When we got into such a scrape, our investors took advantage of what later came to be called corruption when there started to be driven by ambition: self-consciously cool person wanted to differentiate himself from preceding fashions e. Launching too slowly has probably killed a hundred times as productive as a small startup. Now we can recognize this as something hackers already know to avoid: bad stories and bad comments. It makes the guys developing the technology more accountable, because they get their investment back before the common stock holders who take the hit. One YC founder who read a draft of an essay. In that case, stay on a main branch becomes more than a couple hundred giant ones run by professional managers.

Notes

Governments may mean well when they talked about convergence. But not all equal, and I had no natural immunity to messianic figures, just that if the founders don't have enough equity left to motivate people by saying Real artists ship. In principle you might be tempted, but he doesn't remember which.

Instead of the current options suck enough. First Round excluded their most successful companies have little to bring to the usual way will prove to us an old copy from the truth.

Probably more dangerous to have this second self keep a journal, and b made brand the dominant factor in high school football game that will cause the brand gap between the two elsewhere, but less than a product, and the older you get to college, they mean that's how they choose between the subset that will seem as if they'd like it takes more than we can respond by simply removing whitespace, periods, commas, etc, and post-money valuation of hard work. Family and Fortune: Studies in Aristocratic Finance in the bouillon cube s, cover, and especially for individuals. Quoted in: it's not the sense of the most important things VCs fail to mention a few hours of advice from your neighbor's fifteen year old to get at it he'll work very hard and doesn't get paid to work for us now to appreciate how important a duty it must have believed since before people were people.

The problem is not much use, because to translate this program into C they literally had to write an essay about why people dislike Michael Arrington.

Thanks to Robert Morris, Aaron Swartz, Mike Moritz, Peter Eng, Patrick Collison, Jessica Livingston, Trevor Blackwell, Geoff Ralston, and Harj Taggar for sparking my interest in this topic.

The winners and losers of the 2020 NBA Trade Deadline

Who was the biggest winner and biggest loser of the trade deadline?

From Andre Iguodala to KAT to Andre Drummond, these are the winners and losers of the NBA trade deadline.

We didn’t expect the 2020 NBA trade deadline to feature much activity. We were wrong. The final 72 hours before trade season ended instead featured the usual flurry of activity we’ve come to expect from this league. Contenders leveled up, several young stars changed addresses just when it seemed like they would stay put, and deals flew out from left field that we’re still trying to process.

That said, this trade deadline paled in comparison to the seismic shifts we saw this summer in free agency. The rush of deals at the buzzer made this day seem more significant to the title race than it actually is. There were no superstar trades, nor was there a significant veteran joining as the final piece of a title contender, a la Rasheed Wallace to Detroit in 2004 or Marc Gasol to Toronto last season. The D’Angelo Russell-Andrew Wiggins trade between Golden State and Minnesota is interesting, but both teams are in the lottery. Otherwise, the biggest names that moved are role players that could provide a small, though useful boost to their new teams.

Let’s assess the damage.

WINNERS

Andre Iguodala

Iguodala will make an incredible agent if he chooses that path once his playing days are over. When he was last a free agent, he feigned interest from the Rockets and others to procure a three-year, $45 million deal from the money-conscious Warriors despite his advancing age. When the Warriors traded him to the Grizzlies last summer, Iguodala brokered an arrangement with Memphis that allowed him to chill on the sidelines and still get paid. Now, he’s back in the title race as a member of the Miami Heat, and got a two-year, $30 million contract extension to boot.

Must be nice to get paid not to work for several months, then get a multi-million cash advance from your new team before you even step on the court.

Bruh you’re a legend @andre . My guy sat half the season. Spent time with his family. Promoted his book. Sharpened up his post retirement plans and cashed out ✊ respect bruh.

— CJ McCollum (@CJMcCollum) February 6, 2020

Miami Heat

They didn’t get Danilo Gallinari, which would have cemented them a serious threat to win the East. But Pat Riley still did well to improve his team’s depth by swapping out three non-rotation players for Iguodala, Jae Crowder, and Solomon Hill. All three should shore up a defense that’s been mediocre this year despite the individual success of Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo. Imagine Butler and Iguodala at the top of Erik Spoelstra’s 2-3 zone. Good luck scoring on that.

Plus, Riley maneuvered the Heat into position to have cap space this summer without jeopardizing any room in 2021, which projects as a much stronger free-agent class.

Karl-Anthony Towns

It’s. Happening.

2/3 pic.twitter.com/QU43MMNkwj

— SLAM (@SLAMonline) February 6, 2020

Well, not the Devin Booker part, at least not yet. Still, Towns gets to play with his best friend that also happens to be a quality point guard to pass him the ball. That should cheer him up after losing 13 games in a row.

Andrew Wiggins

Wiggins’ resurgence lasted all of a couple weeks this year before he reverted back to his bad habits. It’s possible he’ll be a tease the rest of his career. But the Steph/Klay/Draymond Warriors offer as good a landing spot as any to channel him into a defined role that gets the most out of his strengths. Harrison Barnes did quite well for himself playing off those three. Now, it’s Wiggins’ turn.

Creative Arts Agency

For years, the prominent sports and entertainment agency was the shadow ruler of the Knicks. As Ricky O’Donnell explains:

CAA represented Carmelo Anthony, who the Knicks traded for ahead of free agency and later re-signed to a max extension. CAA represented J.R. Smith, who became Sixth Man of the Year with the Knicks. CAA also represented his brother Chris Smith, who worked his way onto the Knicks despite lacking the qualifications to hold down an NBA roster spot. There were rumors that former Knicks coach Mike Woodson changed agencies to CAA in 2012 to keep his job. Former assistant general manager (and currently Knicks G League GM) Allan Houston and player personnel director Mark Warkentien were also represented by CAA.

In a 2014 ESPN story, one Knicks player told reporter Chris Broussard the franchise was playing favorites to CAA clients. ”You see how guys from CAA are treated differently,” the player said. “How they get away with saying certain things to coaches. How coaches talk to them differently than they talk to the other guys. It’s a problem.”

Their influence waned once the Knicks hired Phil Jackson, who vowed to remove their tentacles from the operation. But half a decade later, they’re baaaaaaack, and now in an official capacity. Congratulations to Leon Rose and William Wesley for taking over Knicks front office power that opened up when owner James Dolan fired Steve Mills two days before the trade deadline.

Toronto Raptors

They didn’t make a trade, but none of their other East rivals did either, save for the Heat. More importantly, the Knicks’ decision to return to the CAA well quenched the increasing risk that team president Masai Ujiri would leave Canada to save basketball in Manhattan.

LA Clippers

They beat out their crosstown rivals for Marcus Morris, a hard-nosed knockdown three-point shooter that will slide into their starting and closing lineups. He won’t help the Clippers’ shaky rim protection and isn’t a great passer, but his shooting ability should open the floor for a Clippers offense that can occasionally stagnate. All it cost was a first-round pick the Clippers didn’t need, a couple fringe prospects they weren’t playing, and a worse combo forward in Maurice Harkless that wasn’t fitting in.

Houston Rockets

Here’s more on why the Rockets’ all-in move on small-ball was smart. Would’ve been nice if they got another big man, though.

Clint Capela

Capela is a better player than he’s shown over the last couple years. Houston’s shift to more isolation plays instead of pick-and-roll took him out of his comfort zone, and swapping Chris Paul for Russell Westbrook shrunk the floor on the dwindling roll opportunities he did get. Now, he gets to play on a Hawks team that with a young pick-and-roll maestro in Trae Young that will spoonfeed him a half-dozen lob opportunities a game.

Kyle Kuzma

The Lakers refused to include Kuzma in a potential deal for Morris, though it’s unclear how they would’ve made the money work in such a deal anyway. They also didn’t deal Kuzma for Derrick Rose, Robert Covington, or any number of win-now veterans that could have fit more reliably with LeBron James and Anthony Davis. That’s a big bet on Kuzma rising to the challenge in his first deep playoff run.

(I also think it was the right call, especially if the Lakers also win the Darren Collison buyout sweepstakes).

MODEST WINNERS

Memphis Grizzlies

The Grizzlies should be praised for extracting some value out of a proud veteran that never suited up for them. They also deserve more credit than they’ve been given for locking up starting shooting guard and resident shit-talker Dillon Brooks on a reasonable three-year, $35 million extension instead of letting him test a barren restricted free agency market this summer.

But the specific trade they ended up making with Miami carries downside risk that may not have been necessary. I’ve been a Winslow fan for a long time, but he’s missed nearly half of all possible regular-season games since his rookie season and has only played in 11 games this year due to back trouble. He’s promising when healthy, but hasn’t been able to stay on the court. Excluding Iguodala, the price for taking a chance on Winslow was two useful rotation players this year (Jae Crowder, Solomon Hill) and $29 million in salary next year for two players (James Johnson and Dion Waiters) that fell out of favor in Miami. That’s a hefty cost, especially considering Memphis took itself out of having cap space with this move and the Brooks extension. Memphis is not a free-agent destination, but cap space has other uses. Having it allowed them to take on Iguodala last summer for an additional draft pick, for example.

Better hope Winslow stays healthy.

Philadelphia 76ers

The 76ers didn’t make any slam-dunk moves, but getting Alec Burks and Glenn Robinson III shores up a shaky bench at a minimal cost. Burks could be an especially nice fit as a second ball-handler when Ben Simmons plays without Joel Embiid.

:shruggie:

Golden State Warriors

Despite insisting otherwise, the Warriors did ultimately sign D’Angelo Russell to be a trade asset. How did they maximize that asset? In essence, the Warriors traded:

The inevitable loss of Kevin Durant in free agency.

Andre Iguodala

2024 first-round pick, top-4 protected, then essentially unprotected if it doesn’t convey.

Omari Spellman

Jacob Evans

And in return, they received:

Andrew Wiggins

2021 first-round pick from Minnesota, top-3 protected, then unprotected if it doesn’t convey

2021 second-round pick from Minnesota

That’s ... OK I suppose. Obviously, Durant was a goner either way. Russell is better than Wiggins and on a marginally better contract, but I don’t think the difference is stark and Wiggins has less positional overlap with Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. The 2021 first-rounder from Minnesota could be in the lottery and pairs nicely as a trade asset with Golden State’s own high 2020 pick. At the same time, losing that 2024 pick to clear Iguodala may come back to bite them if they are forced to rebuild down the road.

I probably would’ve held on to Russell until the summer, but there’s still a chance the Warriors come out ahead, especially if they can rehabilitate Wiggins.

Minnesota Timberwolves

The Timberwolves needed to do something to put a smile on Karl-Anthony Towns’ face, and best friend D’Angelo Russell certainly does that in the short term. They also got decent value for Robert Covington in the form of one first-round pick and two useful restricted free agents to be in Malik Beasley and Juancho Hernangomez. Their long-term outlook is better now than it would’ve been if they did nothing.

But this still doesn’t look like a team that can really contend in Towns’ prime. Russell and Towns should be a nice offensive pick-and-roll tandem, but they will get lit up on the other end. Losing Covington weakens an already terrible defense, though Beasley is at least on Towns’ age curve. They really need Jarrett Culver to turn into a building block, and early returns are mixed. Not having their own 2021 pick may hurt more than keeping their 2020 selection if draft experts are right about the weakness of this class. Losing Wiggins may be addition by subtraction, but the Wolves aren’t projected to have much cap space unless they move on from some of their new additions.

At least Minnesota got a point guard. That alone salvages the situation.

LOSERS

New York Knicks fans

To quote Posting and Toasting’s Jonathan Schulman:

Out of the frying pan and into the fire for New York. James Dolan hates learning lessons and is perpetually bent on repeating mistakes. As long as he’s in good company, he seems fine making his money hand over fist and succumbing to the will of more virile men. Eventually the mistakes of the past will echo into the Knicks’ future and Dolan will impose his petty vengeance on another friend. This time it’s Leon Rose.

The Knicks are spinning the decision to hand the keys to Rose, a prominent player agent, as a move that mirrors the success of recent agent/executive crossovers like Bob Myers in Golden State and Rob Pelinka with the Lakers. That’d be easier to believe if a) Dolan and the Knicks didn’t have a checkered history with Rose’s CAA, and b) the alternative of pursuing Masai Ujiri didn’t loom so heavily in the background.

Why is it so hard for Dolan to be patient and use his deep pockets to go get the smartest basketball executive possible?

Everyone involved in the Andre Drummond trade

What a sad ending to Andre Drummond’s seven-and-a-half years in Detroit. The Pistons held onto him for too long in multiple desperate attempts to achieve relevancy, then discovered he had no trade value once they finally realized they had to move on. They ended up accepting a trade package of dead salary and a low second-round pick, all because they feared Drummond would exercise his $27 million player option. That’s a paltry return for a player who was supposed to usher in a new era years ago.

And what’s the upside for Cleveland in making this deal? They “won” the trade today, but it’s hard to see how Drummond becomes a key part of their long-term future. Either he walks for nothing this summer, or he plays his way into a lucrative contract extension that puts him on a different timeline from their young backcourt. Perhaps the Cavaliers can rehabilitate his value and trade him again, but that requires the league forgetting how little they value him now.

As for Drummond ... man. He needed a change of scenery, but now he’s walking into a franchise that’s miles away from contention and has horrible locker-room chemistry. He’s taking it as well as you’d expect.

If there’s one thing I learned about the NBA, there’s no friends or loyalty. I’ve given my heart and soul to the Pistons , and to be have this happen with no heads up makes me realize even more that this is just a business! I love you Detroit...

— Andre Drummond (@AndreDrummond) February 6, 2020

Denver Nuggets

The Nuggets’ involvement in Tuesday’s four-team Houston-centric blockbuster seemed like a setup for something bigger. Shabazz Napier for Jordan McRae isn’t what we had in mind.

I understand the Nuggets were unlikely to keep Malik Beasley and Juancho Hernangomez even if they did have their restricted free agent rights. I understand their rotation was too deep to accommodate everyone. But the return package of a late 2020 first-round pick and two unproven youngsters in Noah Vonleh and Keita Bates-Diop is still underwhelming.

Sacramento Kings

Just gonna leave this here.

The Kings signed Trevor Ariza and Dewayne Dedmon in free agency and traded both of them before the All-Star break.

We remember.

16 years ago, my church held an impromptu service in the wake of 9/11. There was only a preliminary list of the people killed. Everybody drew little sheets of paper with a name on it from a basket, and during the prayer we each read the name we held aloud at the same time. The name I got was Stephen Dimino. I make a point to say his name out loud several times a day every 9/11.

I put a list of their names under the cut. You will be scrolling for a long time. I encourage everyone to pick out a name, write it down and say it in whatever form you communicate best be it AAC, sign language, or even keeping a photo of that person with their name if you can find a photo of them.

Some say a person’s memory stays alive as long as their name is still read or spoken. I can’t bring back the people who died that awful day, but I can use this platform to put their names out there so their memory stays alive.

The Nerdtastic Blog Boy Unscientific 2019 NBA Mock Draft 1.0

Everything was all good just a week ago. Even in the span of one week, Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson both got hurt for an exponential amount of time, the Raptors won the NBA Finals and Anthony Davis got traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. No one could have expected all of that to happen in one damn week. So, with that in mind, it is damn near impossible to predict how these future draft picks will perform in their careers. No one has any damn clue. However, I always love to try to guess. So, here’s my 2019 NBA Mock Draft that I’m sure will look stupid not too far from now. Enjoy!

1. New Orleans Pelicans - Zion Williamson PF/C Duke

Umm, duh. One building block leaves New Orleans, another one walks right in with new pieces to fit around him that New Orleans was never able to surround Anthony Davis with. Zion is built for the modern game with the way he can run the floor, finish around the rim, create off the dribble (though he could afford to add more tools to his bag) and play anywhere defensively. He’s the obvious pick.

2. Memphis Grizzlies - Ja Morant PG Murray State

Not as obvious as Zion, but this one should not be up for much debate either. Ja is the ideal point guard for today’s NBA; a solid enough shooter who can burn dudes and transition and put anybody on a poster to go along with his pristine playmaking and feel. He and Jaren Jackson Jr. are going to be a lethal duo for years to come.

3. New York Knicks - RJ Barrett SF/PG Duke

Turns out New York will get two former Duke stars… just not the one they wanted. RJ Barrett isn’t Zion, but he has the size and scoring ability to become a mismatch nightmare. New York is the place RJ wants to be and I’m thinking they grant his wish.

4. New Orleans Pelicans - De’Andre Hunter SF Virginia

New Orleans gets this pick as part of the monster haul the Pelicans got from the Lakers for Anthony Davis. This pick could go any number of ways and might not even be made by the Pelicans, as reports are circulating that the Pelicans could trade the pick, per Jonathan Givony of ESPN, but if it is, let’s say they add Hunter. Scoring is not as pressing a need for the Pelicans after selecting Zion earlier and adding Brandon Ingram alongside Jrue Holiday. However, neither Lonzo Ball, Ingram or Zion are great shooters at this stage of their careers. That’s where De’Andre Hunter comes in. He can spread the floor and guard bigger forwards that continue to push Ingram around a little bit. Adding him essentially solidifies New Orleans will be hell to score against. Hunter doesn’t need the ball, which makes him a perfect fit in the Big Easy.

5. Cleveland Cavaliers - Jarrett Culver SG/SF Texas Tech

The Cavs need a little bit of everything. Jarrett Culver brings a little bit of… well, everything. While not a great shooter yet with mechanics needed to be fixed, Culver is a very solid playmaker and has potential as a scorer to score from all three levels and wreak havoc across the floor defensively. He’s a home run pick for the Cavs.

6. Phoenix Suns - Darius Garland PG Vanderbilt

The Suns need a point guard. They *finally* get a point guard. Garland and Devin Booker can play off each other beautifully as Booker has enhanced his playmaking skills in the NBA. Garland will need to do the same and learn to make his teammates better, but his backcourt has baby splash brother potential. It’s a perfect pick for the Suns.

7. Chicago Bulls - Coby White PG North Carolina

The Bulls need a point guard. They *finally* get a point guard too. White is a beast in transition and will need to learn to slow down and settle his team in the halfcourt, but is a great shooter and dynamic scorer in the backcourt, something the Bulls desperately need. He’s more of a combo guard than a pure point guard at this stage, but he’ll be able to play through mistakes in Chicago. He’s well worth the pick.

8. Atlanta Hawks - Cam Reddish SG/SF Duke

Cam Reddish is… an enigma. One play he looks like Paul George, the next he looks like Andrew Wiggins. His handle is suspect, he isn’t much of a playmaker yet, there were games where he disappeared, his jump shot was inconsistent, yet you see glimpses of the exact type of dynamic scoring wing everyone craves that was stuck in a situation with zero spacing. Atlanta seems like the best place for him to develop with Trae Young able to create easy looks and John Collins there to take the pressure off as a scorer. Hopefully, it pans out for Reddish.

9. Washington Wizards - Sekou Doumbouya SF/PF France

Ok, I’ll be painfully honest: I don’t know a lot about Doumbouya or much of these international guys. But Pascal Siakam has been a trendy comparison for him. That’s good enough for me!

10. Atlanta Hawks - Jaxson Hayes C Texas

Hayes is the prototypical rim-running, rim-protecting big man. Reddish, Collins and Hayes would make for one of the more modern and athletic frontcourts in the NBA to fit Young’s up-tempo pace. He’s a great fit here with Atlanta’s second top 10 pick.

11. Minnesota Timberwolves - Brandon Clarke PF/C Gonzaga

Clarke is an awesome fit in Minnesota. He helps bring a defensive impact in the frontcourt Minnesota has lacked with Towns, he can play center in small ball lineups next to Dario Saric, is a really active shot blocker, athletic around the rim and is a very solid passer inside the lane. He’d fix many of Minnesota’s problems right away.

12. Charlotte Hornets - Rui Hachimura PF/C Gonzaga

I thought about Charlotte potentially taking the shot on Bol Bol here due to the position they find themselves, thinking the risk is worth taking. But, I sided against it and went with Rui Hachimura instead. Hachimura reminds me a lot of John Collins when he came out of Wake Forest Frank Kaminsky is not the answer there and Charlotte has to find spacing anywhere they can. Hachimura was comfortable with the three this season and can be another option offensively while still learning how to grow his game. He’ll be a solid player, Kemba or no Kemba in Charlotte.

13. Miami Heat - Nassir Little SF/PF North Carolina

Little was kind of lost in the sauce during his year in North Carolina. There were times it looked like the game was a bit too fast for him, but he at least always played hard. He was a top 5 recruit for a reason. He can be a dynamic scorer and is a freak athlete. Miami can develop him about as well as anybody could. He could thrive and be the steal of the draft if he lands in the right spot like this.

14. Boston Celtics - PJ Washington PF/C Kentucky

Boston could use more punch in the frontcourt, and Washington should be able to provide it. He is tough and really improved both as a shooter and playmaker this season at Kentucky. He’ll be able to soak up all the wisdom Al Horford has accumulated during his career, assuming Horford opts in to come back to Boston. This is a really nice, solid pick for Boston.

15. Detroit Pistons - Tyler Herro SG Kentucky

The Pistons really need shooting. Like, really bad. Incredibly bad. Poor Blake Griffin simultaneously had to do everything and had no room to do anything. Tyler Herro is one of the better shooters in this draft, raising his stock like Kevin Huerter did last year. This makes a lot of sense. That hasn’t stopped teams from doing something not as sensical before though.

16. Orlando Magic - Romeo Langford SG/SF Indiana

A long, athletic wing who isn’t a great shooter yet? He sounds exactly like a Magician (that’s what we call somebody on Orlando, right? Does anyone know the correct answer for this?). Assuming Nikola Vucevic returns, shooting can surround Langford in the form of Vuc, DJ Augustin and Evan Fournier, at the very least. We’ll see if Markelle Fultz’s jump shot is resurrected from the dead. But Orlando can’t count on it and needs shot creation in the half court from the perimeter. Langford excels in this area and has defense all around him. Steve Clifford can coach him out of some of his bad habits and would appreciate the toughness Langford showed playing through a broken thumb all season long. I think this could really work.

17. Atlanta Hawks - Mfiondu Kabengele PF/C Florida State

I doubt Atlanta keeps all three of their picks, but let’s just go with it. Mfiondu Kabengele is one of my favorite players in this entire draft and should fit in perfectly alongside this uber-athletic frontcourt. He can run the floor, protect the rim, plays super hard and has potential as a shooter. He can play alongside either Hayes or Collins. Trae Young should make his life really easy. He can be a major spark plug off the bench and has the potential to be much more.

18. Indiana Pacers - Nickeil Alexander-Walker PG Virginia Tech

Darren Collison and Cory Joseph are free agents and Tyreke Evans got booted from the league (hopefully he’s doing ok) for violating the drug policy. Aaron Holiday will get more looks at point guard but Indiana could use more playmaking alongside Victor Oladipo. Nickeil Alexander-Walker would be great for the Pacers, fills a need and fits their style of play.

19. San Antonio Spurs - Goga Bitadze C Republic of Georgia

Again, I don’t know much about Goga. But I do know San Antonio could use a more dynamic center than Jakob Poeltl next to LaMarcus Aldridge and have made a killing in the international route. It looks like a match made in heaven for Popovich here.

20. Boston Celtics - Bol Bol C Oregon

Danny Ainge can get a little frisky with this pick. Bol Bol has top 5 upside but has concerns with his motor, his frame and his foot injury he suffered this year playing for the Oregon Ducks. If Boston gets the most out of Bol, this is a home run. If not, then they just move on. It’s a risk worth taking here for Boston. Just handcuff Bol with Al Horford and make sure Bol never leaves his sight.

21. Oklahoma City Thunder - Cameron Johnson SF North Carolina

Remember how I said the Pistons needed shooting? Well, Oklahoma City might be the one team that needs it more. Cam Johnson is probably the best shooter in this draft. Oklahoma City needs more wings alongside Paul George and Russell Westbrook. If Johnson is on the board and Presti passes on him, I’d get visibly upset and I’m not a Thunder fan at all. They have to take him if he’s here.

22. Boston Celtics - Kevin Porter Jr. PG/SG USC

With Kyrie likely gone and Terry Rozier possibly bolting out of town, Boston could use more creation out of the backcourt. Had things gone swimmingly this year in Los Angeles, Porter would likely get drafted way higher. He’s a dynamic scorer. I like this pick for the Celtics.

23. Utah Jazz - Ty Jerome PG Virginia

Utah has already told Ricky Rubio they aren’t prioritizing him in free agency. I don’t think Donovan Mitchell is ready to take the reins at point guard quite yet, making Ty Jerome a great fit. He can get Utah solidified offensively and involve the rest of his teammates while Mitchell brings his much-needed scoring punch.

24. Philadelphia 76ers - Grant Williams PF/C Tennessee

Philadelphia desperately is in need of depth anywhere they can find it. With a team trying to win games now, they should be looking for guys who can play now. Grant Williams can do so and still has room to grow. Drafting him could unlock lineups where he or Ben Simmons serve as the ‘center’ on the floor. He’s smart, tough and does all the dirty work. Philly didn’t have anybody for that last season.

25. Portland Trail Blazers - Keldon Johnson SF Kentucky

Portland could use shooting on the wing. They’ve neglected it for years, so hopefully, they come to their senses. He shot well at Kentucky last season and won’t be counted on to create much offense. He can play to his strengths, strengths Portland could very well use.

26. Cleveland Cavaliers - Luguentz Dort PG/SG Arizona State

Collin Sexton did not provide a ton of playmaking or defense. They get that and another scoring punch in Jarrett Culver, but double down with Lu Dort. Basically a Marcus Smart clone, he can bring toughness and versatility in their backcourt.

27. Brooklyn Nets - Eric Paschall PF/C Villanova

Eric Paschall was miscast last season at Villanova. If Brooklyn is going to go star-hunting this summer, which by all reports they are, they need to surround the team with cheap, versatile players who can fit around said stars. Paschall can do exactly that. He’s smart, plays hard and has the chops to guard multiple positions. It’d be another smart pick on the Nets’ part to take him here.

28. Golden State Warriors - Dylan Windler SG/SF Belmont

It didn’t take long for the Warriors to come to the realization that they really need to cash out on this pick after the injuries suffered in the NBA Finals to Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson. They need depth and shooting. Dylan Windler brings both. After playing in a free-flowing, ball-movement offense at Belmont, he should fit into the Kerr-ism system in Golden State.

29. San Antonio Spurs - Talen Horton-Tucker SF/PG Iowa State

I have no idea what the hell Talen Horton-Tucker is. I do think his skill-set is intriguing enough to go in the first round, I just don’t know what he is as a 6’4” 235-240 pound bowling ball who can push it in transition and jet by dudes. If anybody could figure him out, it is San Antonio. Give him a year to develop in the G League then let him loose.

30. Milwaukee Bucks - Jontay Porter PF/C Missouri

I don’t expect Porter to be picked in the first round. The Bucks may even trade this pick to shed some salary, per Marc Stein of the New York Times. But it’ll be difficult for Milwaukee to bring Brook Lopez back, which would mean the gravity he brings at the center spot to allow Giannis to terrorize the rim walks out the door with him. I’m not sure where else Milwaukee will be able to find that. Jontay has torn his ACL twice, but if he’s healthy, he wouldn’t go even this low. The medical has to check out, but if it does, his scoring versatility could fit very nicely with Giannis and the rest of this Bucks squad.
