    Don’t over react to the Lakers getting bounced from the playoffs. The Suns are a really good team this year. Lebron’s legacy is still impressive--one of the top 5 players of the 2010s and probably one of the best 10 or 15 small forwards ever to play the game.

    I see many tweets on how Netanyahu was “deposed”/“taken down” and other odd descriptions. The reality is this- there were fair and honest elections—> the number of seats was divided according to the votes —-> Netanyahu wasn’t able to form a gov. Lapid did it. Language matters
