Recap
Big CatThe Cavaliers are officially dead after Game 2 of the NBA Finals
The Cavaliers are officially dead. I feel confident about this time. I've done this before, and I had to eat some crow... because the Cavaliers have been blown out now two times.
Big CatCavaliers fans should be rooting for Kevin Love to miss time with his concussion
Kevin Love is seemingly concussed. And if you're a Cavs fan, are you rooting for Love to miss time? I think you are... because he's such a bad fit for this series and playing anyone on defense that I might want Kevin Love not around.
Big CatThe Golden State Warriors are better off without Steph Curry
I've seen enough and I know enough that if you take Steph out of the Warriors, they're just as good, if not better. [They haven't said his name] all series because he's been on the bench all series.
Interview
Blake GriffinThe Cavaliers are finished in the 2016 NBA Finals
Cavs, done or finished. It's looking pretty bad, man. I actually thought they were going to win tonight. It's looking pretty bad. I'm going to say they're finished.
Big CatThe Oklahoma City Thunder would have beaten the Cavaliers in the Finals if they had advanced
Oklahoma City is the big loser in all of this because I think they would have won the title if they had faced the Cavs.
Blake GriffinDeAndre Jordan makes at least 60% of his free throws in practice
Honestly, he goes over and shoots on the side after we're done and everybody else is shooting. He probably shoots at least 60% in practice, maybe more.
Thoughts And Prayers
Big CatMuhammad Ali and Michael Jordan are the two most popular athletes of all time
I would say Muhammad Ali, most popular athlete of all time. It's probably Muhammad Ali one, Michael Jordan two, and there's not really a third.
Talking Soccer
Big CatSoccer will officially catch on in the US during the summer of 2016
I'll tell you what, man. This is the summer it catches on. You watch. Some people have called it the summer of soccer. I think so. If they could get a big tie against like a Brazil or something, that's the launching point for soccer being the biggest sport in America.
Spin Zone
PFT CommenterLeBron James lacks grit because he peaked in high school
LeBron has no grit, but it's not from his own – it's not his own fault... I think that LeBron's just been screwed over. Like I said, the guy peaked in high school and... he was back in, like, 11th, 12th grade being put in the center of the universe.
Pr 101
PFT CommenterAqib Talib can extend his career by seven years by capitalizing on his shooting incident
Tlaib may have just extended his career by like seven years. Because now he can get that really sappy E30 with Jeremy Schaap... A second chance is worth like two more contracts. So smart move on Tlaib's part, getting shot, because now he gets like an opportunity to prove himself again.
Olympic Update
Big CatThe Zika virus is an official threat to the Rio Olympics because of sexual transmission
If you can't get your dick sucked or eat some vagina, there's no point in going to Rio. So Zika is now an official threat to the Olympics. If you're an Olympic athlete and you can't fucking suck your way through Rio, what's the point in going?
X Games Update
PFT CommenterThe X Games have lost their fastball because they cancel events for rain
The X Games has lost their fastball... they canceled all the events yesterday because of rain, and these are the X Games, right? Why are you canceling events because of rain? If anything, it should be the Surge commercial where everybody is running up the hill.
