Game of Zones, season eight, episode one; focuses on Dwyane Wade joining the media, and the level of easter eggs hit an all-time high.
It has often been said all great things must come to an end. This spring the ABC all-time classic Modern Family came to an epic conclusion on April 8, 2020. Last spring the HBO cult classic Game of Thrones came to a flaming close on May 19, 2019.
Now, the latter shows hit parody, Game of Zones (courtesy of Bleacher Report) has also embarked on the dreaded final season. The first of the final episodes highlighted former Heat guard Dwyane Wade joining the media.
Check the episode out yourself below:

It warms my heart to see literally EVERY teammate of Russell’s had, say he’s the best teammate (besides the two who have issues w everyone - everywhere they are)

Good question, Rachel
On this date...the Bucks won their only title. In fact, they've only even been back to the Finals one other time in the past 48 YEARS. That was projected to change this spring, but if this season is canceled, will they have missed their window? pic.twitter.com/YgJlntKfyx

Cool story, Vincent
Funny story: Dennis Rodman told his tailor in Detroit, days before he was traded that he didn’t want to be traded, that he loved Detroit.

What a fun question, do you know the answer?
Without looking, who does Steph Curry currently rank one spot behind on the career assists list?

I don't have an NBA squad I root for unequivocally. The closest I've ever gotten was the 2011 Mavs.

Yes.

Yes, Thunder fans have been spoiled. We have also been very lucky
It's really amazing what we've gotten to experience as Thunder fans.

There's probably only a handful of teams that could beat that, and we've only existed for a little over a decade.#ThunderUp #InPrestiWeTrust https://t.co/B9HqezO8jB

Superheros are fun to watch on TV and in film. However, in reality, true heroes do not wear capes they wear scrubs, but they definitely still wear masks. Warner Media put together this touching tribute that deserves a view, or two.
This week, I leave you with this, as many states and cities have already begun, while others follow suit with a path to re-open. Please continue to stay home, stay safe, and fight the good fight together!
