Subject: Thanksgiving Day Potluck

Heeey guys, it’s that time again LOL. This year will be at MY house and I’d love to see you all there! SO much FOOD and BOOZE LOL, I’ve attached a spreadsheet on what dishes we’d like you to bring! If you have any questions just text me (or maybe a voice call because my hands might be full with all this cooking LMAO)

See you soon!

Joakim Noah

“Wow, did you make this from scratch?” No, Joakim did not but he will tell you that he did and show you the recipe in his iPhone notes. The sweet potato pie he brought was straight from Trader Joe’s and for that he’s traded your trust for his self satisfaction.

Russell Westbrook

Yes, you did email out a list of who’s bringing what three weeks ago. Yes, Russell Westbrook was on that list. Yes, he did bring an aggressive amount of macaroni and cheese along with two bowls of cranberry sauce even though someone else already brought both dishes. Yes, he did say he would bring the sodas since he made a lot last year. Yes, he did decide to do what he wants and ignore that said email. Yes, you will pretend to enjoy it while he watches you eat it.

J.R Smith

J.R is running a little late. He has called multiple times to see if anyone brought the Henny he requested. J.R was also the only one who responded in the email thread with a request.

Kawhi Leonard

Jesus Christ, Kawhi made an amazing salad. No one comes to Thanksgiving pumped for salad but you just tasted the most amazing salad and you have to appreciate it. He even let you keep the bowl he brought that you actually saw in Macy’s but it was too expensive at the time. What a treat, that Kawhi Leonard ya know?

Klay Thompson

You gave Klay the easiest assignment this year after the mashed potatoes fiasco from the previous Thanksgiving. He actually did it! He brought three different varieties of potato chips in family size, only three hours before everyone else arrived. Klay’s phone also died so you know he’s staring at a blank phone to try to take away the awkwardness as he sits at your table waiting.

Steph Curry

Aw, Steph you really didn’t have to bring anything, we just wanted your company. How’s the wife and kids? I’m going to try your potato salad before anyone’s dish.

JaVale McGee

Jesus, Steph is just the cutest isn’t he? He just comes in and brings in so much happ- WHAT THE HELL! IS THAT JAVALE? I TOLD YOU NOT TO COME BACK, GET THE HELL OUT! OUT NOW, GET OUT! PUT THAT BACK! FORGET IT, TAKE IT WITH YOU JUST GET OUT!

Like I was saying, look at this family! Just too much to handle!
