In all seriousness, I saw this success happening when the season started, lol. So let me give myself some credit! The NBA G League’s newest team, the Ignite, was always given its due by me because I knew those young men could HOOP. Please make no mistake about it. Their time in getting ready for the next level was meant to be spent in this kind of situation, not on a college campus. Especially during a pandemic!
Ranging between the top-notch play of likely lottery picks Jalen Green and Jonathan Kuminga and respected veterans such as Jarrett Jack revitalizing his career, this year’s Ignite team provides the blueprint for how the NBA should handle this in the future.Â
I honestly don’t see how the G-League couldn’t create another three or four of these teams across the country. Think New York, Chicago, and Atlanta Ignite teams to join its original team in California.
Regardless of how their season concludes in terms of wins, the Ignite’s debut season will be successful if the young players improved and matured before joining the NBA. I think it’s safe to say that various people no longer believe in college basketball as the best option for these ultra-talented players who’ve been NBA bound for a long time. And I’m hopeful that’s the case!

And then the man that gives you panic attacks logs on and you have to leave the entire city for your own health.
Thomas was lying down in his hospital bed healing up and getting rest. That was before he saw Arden enter the room with someone behind him. “Where is she?” The vampire asked with a concerned look on his face.
Umbra then ran over to Thomas and hugged him gently. “I’m safe. Don’t worry.” She says before giggling while Arden watched.
Thomas ended up hugging her back as tears began to go down his face. “Glad to hear that you’re safe kiddo.”
“So all we need is void capable transport and the single most powerful explosive?”
“It’s not the most powerful, Arden. And we already have one. Well. More than one. This ship has a few… hundred”
“Why would pirates have those?”
“Doesn’t matter. I can rig them for remote detonation. You need to find transport”
“Asher. How much did you actually replace?”, Arden carefully helped Asher put his cloak back on, “because I quite clearly remember you claim that you had minimal cybernetics”
“I lied”, Asher, now with his cloak back on, carefully surveyed the auramite scrap layed out, “Sorry about your spare armour.”
“Sorry that it didn’t protect you”
“I did take… eight, was it eight? Eight lascannon shots”, Asher inspected the two broken cybernetic arms, “Don’t suppose you’ve got any spares? Or do I have to run with just the fleshy ones?”
“Just the fleshy ones. Sorry”, Arden passed Asher his axe back, “Now can we get rid of that silica anima you unleashed? Before we get into any further, and actually serious, trouble”
