San Jose hopes it has a new star in Timo Werner. The German arrived this week eager to turn the page on a year in which he was discarded by two managers. That experience has given him a new lease on life in which the Quakes should benefit:

The idea was to take San Francisco’s most recognizable building and reinvent it for the new age. In the end, the Transamerica Pyramid was indeed transformed. It just wasn’t Michael Shvo who got to keep it. My piece 👇

The Thunder's role players just did the business on Cleveland. Would be nice if the Dubs followed that up with their own performance today. Not optimistic. They would need to alter their play style and wreak havoc on defense.

Nothing about this season has been ideal. Tonight doesn’t change that. The Warriors just need to get to the play-in healthy, with KP ramped up, and they’ll be a tough matchup for anybody.

I understand that a business can’t lose money forever, but what about today’s cuts at The Post make it more “essential” or worth the subscription? The people in charge had years to figure this out…

I don’t know what you can do with these knee injuries other than pray that they are not serious. At least the Warriors’ role players are playing as well as you can hope for. This team could’ve been pretty darn good!

Unlike in past tech booms, AI companies aren't plastering their names and logos onto office buildings, so it can be hard to know where they're all located.
