The Pi Brew
We’re back with a new Brew. James Harden made his long awaited debut for the Sixers in Minnesota on Friday night and what a debut it was. Harden followed it up with another big performance on Sunday at Madison Square Garden, The Union took home a tie in their home opener. Russia invaded Ukraine and is facing major blowback from all across the world. There’s a lot to cover, so let’s get right to it. It’s Brew time!
What a debut for James Harden
a debut for the ages!
