Meet the heroes who made and saved the ‘Space Jam’ website

Good morning. Let’s basketball.

COME ON AND SLAM: The NBA put together a YouTube with the top 100 dunks of the 2014-15 season. Twenty minutes of dunks. Enjoy.

HILARIOUS BUT TRUE: The Heat’s season depends in part on Hassan Whiteside. Hassan. Whiteside.

NEVER USE MJ’S LIKENESS WITHOUT PERMISSION: A now-defunct grocery chain used a photo of Jordan in an ad without permission. He sued and just won $8.9 million from Safeway, who had purchased the chain. He’s donating it to charity. Rounds of golf and cigars are tax-deductible, right?

(ALMOST) DARIO TIME: Dario Saric gave an interview in Croatia where he indicates he’ll jump to the NBA in 2016.

TREY TIME: Trey Burke is ready to step in to fill the void left by Dante Exum’s injury. High expectations for that squad.

A PUZZLE WITH 1,230 PIECES: Great Howard Beck feature on the man who has written the NBA schedule for the past 30 years and is stepping down.

THE EDGE OF IRRELEVANCE: Matt Moore on how far Rajon Rondo and Josh Smith have fallen and what they can do to rise back up.

RAISING A KID IN THE WNBA: Really cool story on how Tayler Hill of the Washington Mystics copes with trying to raise her adorable one-year-old son while playing pro basketball.

THE TAKEOVER: Jameer Nelson discusses the impact of guards having taken over the most important role in the NBA.

IF YOU WANT TO JAM: Erik Malinowski talks to the heroes who made and saved in perpetuity the original webpage for SPACE JAM. I definitely accessed that site on Compuserve at some point.

RIGHT ON: Using the Rookie Transition Program to talk to new NBAers about tolerance and homophobia.

WELL ... David Lee might not play much in Boston, either.

MAMBA BACK: Kobe is cleared to take shots. So, he’s taking shots.

COOL: All NBA stars are lip-syncing with their significant others.

Happy Monday. See you next time.
