 Former Minnesota Timberwolves player Sam Mitchell revealed the address of his NBA TV co-host, Chris Miles, Friday night after an awkward on-air interaction where Mitchell was clearly frustrated by comments from Miles. 

In a pregame segment on NBA TV ahead of a preseason game between the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings, Miles asked Mitchell, who played 10 of his 13 NBA seasons with the Wolves, his thoughts about Warriors coach Steve Kerr not receiving a gold medal after leading Team USA to a gold medal during the Paris Olympics this summer. 

I saw that. Coaches don’t get a medal. I guess it just tells you, (in) international (basketball) how they value coaches. Not at all,” Mitchell said. “How do coaches (not) get a gold medal?”

Miles then took a poke at Mitchell, a former coach of the Toronto Raptors from 2004-8 and interim of the Wolves in 2016.

“I’m surprised coaches get a paycheck for this show,” Miles quipped. “I think like maybe you should do this pro bono.”

That comment clearly frustrated Mitchell and set off over a minute-long uncomfortable interaction between the two.

"You know, last time I looked at my check, it's pretty close (to pro bono)," Mitchell said. "So hey, I'm taking donations. Why don't you come up off some of that money you got since you over there bragging about it?"

Miles responded that he wasn't bragging about anything, and Mitchell continued to press him about supposed rental properties like a beach house in Florida and a townhouse in Georgia. Miles appeared stunned and asked what's going on.

ou want to call me out, I mean, come on," Mitchell said. "You screaming broke and hungry, let's just see it. You know, I know what you have and where you live, young fella, so you need to stop."

Miles fired back that they have "snitches" on the show, though Mitchell referred to it as being a "truth teller." Miles attempted to get back on track to the Kings and Warriors, but Mitchell got one more jab in before they got to NBA talk.

"You gotta stop messing with me on national TV," Mitchell said. "I done told you about that. Do I need to give out the address because you not at home right now?"

The two then finally transitioned to talking about another game between the Los Angeles Clippers and Portland Trail Blazers, which was taking place in Seattle, with Mitchell saying he believes an NBA team should still be in the city.

Cineverse’s unrated slasher threequel Terrifier 3 grossed out $2.6M in previews on Thursday which began at 8PM. There’s speculation that this microbudget movie, which cost Cineverse under $5M in its entirety for acquisition and P&A, will topple Warner Bros’ Joker: Folie à Deux from the top spot of the box office in its second weekend with an $11M+ take. We will see. It all depends if Cineverse’s thrifty marketing campaign finds a greater audience beyond the core it’s promoting to; their streaming subs and Blooding Disgusting followers. The Damien Leone written and directed horror movie is 94% with Rotten Tomatoes audiences, and 78% with critics. Comscore/Screen Engine’s PostTrak didn’t capture audience exits on the pic.

The early box office numbers putting Terrifier 3 at No. 1 after early previews are far beyond our expectations and we are thrilled to see how strongly the Terrifier fanbase has come out in support of the franchise’s new chapter,” said Cineverse Chairman/CEO Chris McGurk in a statement this AM. “This success is proof that a quality indie film can hold its own theatrically despite being unrated and going up against big studio features and buzzy festival darlings, and is a testament to Phil and Damien’s vision and connection to those most passionate about the horror genre.”
