    • The Golden State Warriors are a perfect 4-0 in the playoffs since they lost Kevin Durant to a calf injury in the second round. (They’re 5-0 if you count the game in which Durant suffered that injury.) Few teams could survive losing their most talented star, let alone the best player in the league, but Golden State has done more than just scrape by. In Durant’s absence, the Warriors have looked like … well, they’ve looked like the Warriors. Saturday’s 110-99 win against the Portland Trail Blazers was a fine showcase of their recent form, wherein the ball pings around on offense and everyone appears to be having a blast.

    This success has created a bit of an awkward situation. Durant is at once the most dominant offensive player on Earth and the league’s most sensitive superstar. The two-time NBA Finals MVP once engaged in an Instagram flame war with a teenager, and his alleged use of Twitter burner accounts will be given a full chapter when the history of social media meltdowns is written. If anyone is bound to take notice of the internet’s gleeful appreciation of the Durant-less Warriors, it’s Kevin Durant. After Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals, Durant appears to have done what he does best.

    — Back Pain Kerr (@PrimeNickKerr) May 19, 2019 The comment from Durant, who goes by @easymoneysniper on Instagram, has since been deleted, but the hundreds of responses that flew in provide strong evidence of its authenticity (and of the fact that he got mad online). There are plenty of people who say terrible things about Durant on the internet, so it’s anyone’s guess as to why he would focus on someone who has only 23 followers and didn’t say anything particularly pointed or mean. Nevertheless, I’m thrilled Durant tapped his fingers in this direction. In doing so, he has given the world a wonderful new turn of phrase: “very divisive mikey.” [Read More]

    The Morning After: 'Sonic the Hedgehog' got rescheduled

    Employees and partners are already testing its streaming capabilities. Every Xbox One title will be playable on Project xCloud When Project xCloud debuts, it'll be capable of streaming any of the system's games (including backward compatible ones) out of the gate without developers needing to make any changes. Microsoft also says when a developer updates an Xbox One game, those changes will automatically apply to Project xCloud versions. However, changes to the developer's kit let a game know when it's being played from the cloud to adjust for different types of displays or run multiplayer games on a single server. The teeth, the legs, the teeth, the eyes, the teeth. 'Sonic the Hedgehog' movie delayed to fix nightmare-inducing design Following a statement by director Jeff Fowler that changes are "going to happen," Paramount pushed back the release date three months to give the filmmakers "a little more time to make Sonic just right."

    Things to Do Before Going on Vacation

    Most of the world sets goals and makes resolutions all the time, however, very few percents of people actually stick to those resolutions. While it’s entirely possible that many people are being unrealistic with their goals, the number one thing you need to do before going on a vacation is to write down your achievements and goals. Doing this will set you up to be productive and enables you to go into your vacation with a clear direction and positive attitude. Part of setting realistic goals and priorities is reflecting on what you’ve accomplished in the past. Here are few good questions to ask yourself: How many accounts did you manage? How much in sales volume did you secure?  Did you reduce cost?  How many clients did you interact with?  Did you surpass a quota? Did you manage a team? If so, how many team members did you manage? Did you work with any notable clients or vendors? Did you secure a...
