Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.  But Grousbeck isn’t backing down.

As Kevin Garnett prepares to play in his 15th all-star game this Sunday, let’s look back at his most memorable all-star appearance. It was in 2003 at Phillips Arena in Atlanta. In what was Michael Jordan’s last all-star game, MJ dropped 20 points on 9 of 27 shooting. Mariah Carey’s halftime performance of “Hero” brought [...]
