Our latest preprint continues our investigations into spinal mechanisms of human chronic pain! We find no evidence for a loss of neurons in the dorsal horn of donors with chronic lower limb pain, and the ratio of excitatory to inhibitory interneurons also remains consistent between pain states.

posted this six years ago on twitter and it went viral but here’s daryl dawkins on don nelson in his memoir
I never had much to do with the other coaches in the league. I wasn't a big fan of Don Nelson's until one night when we were playing the Bucks in Milwaukee. I was squatting in front of the scorers table waiting to come into the game and Nellie happened to be standing nearby. "You know what?" Nellie asked me.
"What?"
"You guys are kicking our ass, the beer's cold in the locker room
and I gotta get the fuck out of here."
So he shouted to the nearest referee, "Hey, you fucking asshole!
That was a terrible call!" BOP! The ref gave him a technical foul, our Nellie wasn't through. "You'e still a fucking asshole and that as il a terrible call!" BOP! The second tech meant that Nellie was banished from the bench. Before he left, Nellie winked at me and said,
"See you later."
