Unlike Farmar, his second time on the boob tube will not be playing himself. Dude is STUH-RETCHING his craft. Nuggets VP Mark Warkentein has a pretty cool idea to prevent tanking among the bottom feeders. The Cavs are stumbling out of the gate (which is funsie if you're a Lakers fan). Chuck Hayes didn't know he's a Rockets captain.
