>San Antonio was open to discussing Dejounte Murray and Lonnie Walker IV before the draft, sources said, and the Spurs added more enticing future draft capital in their sign-and-trade that delivered DeMar DeRozan to Chicago. Could the starting points of that package be enough to truly intrigue Philly? Portland's eventual interest, as always, would factor heavily into any further discussions, too.
Starting to think we really might end up doing this... Could also explain Murray's cryptic tweets maybe.

Part 1 is on YouTube, but not Part 2, for some reason. I believe this tribute was aired by the Grand Prix Show after the 1993 French Grand Prix.

Former Captain America, John Walker and his wife, Olivia Walker, are planning to sue Murray Stevenson for libel, defamation of character and unauthorized usage of their likenesses. This, the latest in Stevenson's legal troubles, comes just weeks after John Walker expressed disapproval of controversial right-wing media pundits film "The Real Hero".
"I'm proud of my time as Captain America, this movie doesn't reflect on my time as Captain America," Walker told Robert Evans on Good Morning Georgia, adding "It's full of events that never happened, it puts words I never said in my mouth."
"The Real Hero" began production in August, two months after Captain Walker's infamous killing of Flagsmasher Nico Kovaczsik, which led to him being stripped of his title as Captain America. Originally set to star Zac Efron as Captain Walker, it will now star a digitally de-aged Mel Gibson in the lead role and is set to be the directorial debut of Stevenson and the first film out of Avengers Studios.
When asked to comment on Walker's statements, Stevenson claimed it to be the work of deepfakes, saying "It is fake, the voice of Walker doesn't match, it it is fake." In the same statement Stevenson claimed that Walker was planning to sue Good Morning Georgia (which he mistakenly referred to as Georgia Radio). With this latest development, in is unknown how Murray, who has in the past held Walker in a higher regard than even Steve Rogers, will respond.
Walker's statement came two days after the films script, which Stevenson also wrote, was leaked in full onto first 4chan, the later Reddit, before finding it's way onto to Twitter. According to Olivia Walker, this was the first time her husband was able to read the script. Walker wasn't needed to approve of the film because the rights to his likeness as Captain America, as well as the likeness of Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson, are technically owned by the US government.
"We're not really suing because of how John's portrayed." Olivia Walker said in a statement to the press adding, "As uncomfortable as he was with being made into this deity like figure, and as annoyed as he was being portrayed as someone who would in anyway support Stevenson, what really inspired him to take legal action were the racist depictions of our late friend, Lemar Hoskins, as well as a depiction of myself that is both racist and misogynistic. John had been shielding me from reading it for a while, but I have some pages of script wi

Unlike Stewart hating on Lewis
"Fangio took a lot of beating, [as did] Jim Clark, Sir Jackie Stewart, I could go on, but which is the best I really don’t know,” said Walker during the In the Fast Lane podcast, as reported by Autosport. “I used to say Fangio. I think I’m going to have to say very shortly Lewis Hamilton. “If you look at it in terms of statistics, he’s already got more poles than Michael Schumacher. He’s got at least three years in him if he doesn’t hurt himself or leave Mercedes for some reason or they decide to stop. “In which case, he’s got at least another three championships ahead of him, so statistically he will become the greatest. “But he’s also in my opinion – and this is very contentious indeed – better than either Schumacher or Senna because both of them, Schumacher and Senna, adopted at various times in their career highly debatable driving tactics. “Like Schumacher stopping deliberately at Monaco to prevent [Fernando Alonso] getting pole position, like Schumacher colliding with Jacques Villeneuve at Jerez in 1997, like Senna with [Alain] Prost in 1990 in Japan. “Lewis Hamilton has never been anything like that. He’s always driven as clean as a whistle. “He’s an extremely nice, gigantically talented driver and I don’t think we’ve ever seen anybody like him before.”
Not really much to say, other than this is a good thing
"There's nothing wrong with the car except that it's on fire."
RIP - Murray Walker
