Kevin Durant, then of the Thunder, smiles next to Warriors head coach Steve Kerr during the first half of a March 3, 2016 game. Jonah Keri talks with Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, Chicago Cubs manager Joe Maddon and Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll about why they've made fun such central parts of their leadership philosophies, and how driving their players to enjoy themselves has helped create some of the most successful teams in their respective sports. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the NBA's all-time leading scorer and a prominent cultural critic, offers his view on the ongoing controversy surrounding San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick's decision to sit during the national anthem as a protest against oppression of black people and other people of color, and — as with jus tabout everything Kareem writes — it's thoughtful and worth a read.
