Recap
PFT CommenterStephen A. Smith's receding hairline makes him a better journalist
Stephen A., his hair has been receding into that cul-de-sac that he has for the last five years. It becomes like a satellite dish of hair. So he's able to hear these whispers at a pace that you or I can't, that mere mortals can't.
Big CatLeBron James will sign with the Lakers
LeBron's going to sign with the Lakers. Paul George is going to stay in Oklahoma. No, I think playoff P is going to L.A.
Big CatFIFA should use 'retroactive penalty kicks' to settle group stage ties
Anytime a tie happens in group stage, they should just do a PK that they can save for later. It's like, this doesn't count now, but if you guys end up tying everything else, it then counts.
PFT CommenterThe Mets should call up Tim Tebow immediately
Come on, Mets, just bring Tebow up this year. You're not going to do anything else... Tebow Tuesdays. I like it. With the Mets.
Big CatI will never race Darren Rovell in a marathon
Darren Rovell has challenged me to a marathon. It is the dumbest challenge ever... You could triple dog, quadruple dog, infinity dog dare me to run a marathon, and I'll just sit there and be like, no, because it looks awful.
Mount Rushmore
HankSitting on a winning bet ticket is one of the best feelings in the world
My number four will be when you're sitting on a winning bet ticket. So like when you bet the Capitals and win the Stanley Cup and you know that it's our year and you're just like, I have $1,500 free money.
Interview
Brian ScalabrineModern NBA GMs prefer gambling on high-upside rookies over reliable role players
GMs nowadays are looking for, like, the next greatest thing. They'll try like an 18-year-old, see if it works. If it doesn't, they'll try another. They're not going to stick with the solid guy because that's not going to help them get eventually a steal in the second round.
Brian ScalabrineJoey Crawford is the best official in NBA history
Joey Crawford's the best official in the history of the game... I think that he controls the game better than anybody... In the second half, you rarely hear about him.
Brian ScalabrineDanny Ainge's goal is to beat LeBron James, not sign him
I think Danny Ainge's whole life has been about beating LeBron... Since he got to Boston, LeBron has, you know, pseudo been in the league. How do you overtake this guy?... But he doesn't want LeBron to join. He wants to beat him.
Brian ScalabrineKevin Durant's move to the Warriors made the NBA better by raising the standard
I think [Kevin Durant] made the NBA better because he sets a standard for what a championship team would be like... The new championship level is what we're seeing with the Warriors.
Brian ScalabrineRookies should invest all their money into their bodies and skills rather than the market
My advice to them would be invest as much money into yourself, your body, your food. Focus on becoming a better player because there's nothing in the world that's going to be a better return on your investment than making yourself a better player. That second contract... you're worth $100 million.
