The Pi Brew
We’re back with a new Brew. James Harden played in his first home game as a member of the 76ers. The 76ers are exciting to watch again. The MLB lockout is now forcing regular season games to be canceled. The President gave his State of the Union address to the Nation on Tuesday night. We have a lot to cover, so let’s do this. It’s Brew time!

Who in the blue hell is this Jabroni?
“Some bozos in Philadelphia are saying Harden and Embiid are the new Kobe and Shaq. That’s comical. This is not even a Top 5 duo in the East. A 1st round exit would not be a surprise.”

This trio is looking great
Joel Embiid, James Harden and Tyrese Maxey have combined for 176 points in their first 2 games together.
The only trio with more points in their first 2 games together in NBA history is Wilt Chamberlain, Paul Arizin & York Larese with 193 points in 1961. pic.twitter.com/qZObricfwU

Sixers basketball is fun again
Damn this #Sixers team is fun to watch. Harden & Embiid already look like the best duo in the league, but they are quietly building a Big 3 of their own… @foxphlgambler https://t.co/g8Kxwb1nmm

“Best” offer
MLB’s best-and-final offer:
– No changes to CBT thresholds (220/220/220/224/230)
– A $5M increase on pre-arb bonus pool from $25M to $30M
– An increase of minimums from $675K to $700K, moving up $10K/year— Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) March 1, 2022
Nailed it
In fantasy baseball terms the owners tried to get the deal done by adding a waiver piece to the offer.
