The Warriors are nearly unbeatable when Klay Thompson scores 30 or more points

Klay Thompson, when he scores 30 or more points... 64 and 10. Pretty good. When he has, when he's the perfect amount of high for a game, when he takes his edible and times it out perfectly before the game and he goes off, the Warriors win those games.

As of the episode date, the Warriors were statistically dominant when Klay hit the 30-point mark.

The Lakers-Warriors series is going to seven games

It feels like this is gonna be a seven game series. I'm very, very excited... I like, I can't decide who's going to win this series because I do still think the Lakers when AD is on pose some significant issues for the Warriors. I think it's going seven. I really do.

The Lakers defeated the Warriors in 6 games, winning 4-2. The series did not reach Game 7.

Joel Embiid will score at least 35 points in Game 3 against the Celtics

He's gonna look so much better tonight... He's gonna drop at least 35 [points].

In Game 3 of the 2023 Eastern Conference Semifinals, Joel Embiid scored 30 points, failing to reach the 35-point threshold predicted by Max.

Marcus Smart will never have another shooting performance as good as Game 2

Marcus Smart will never shoot like that again. That's fact.

Smart was 7-14 (50%) in Game 2. He had several later career games with better percentages or more makes, though this specific volume/efficiency combo is high for him.

Sam Darnold might be the most talented pure thrower in 49ers history

There was another great hot take out there in the world of football. Did you guys see what they said about Sam Darnold today?... He said Sam Darnold might be the most talented thrower of football that the 49ers have ever had... Most talented thrower. He didn't say best quarterback... basically what he said was, 'I wanna fuck his spiral.'

Extremely subjective and controversial. While Darnold has a strong arm, comparing him to Hall of Famers like Montana and Young in 'pure throwing' is generally considered hyperbole.

The F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix will be the biggest sporting event in the world in 2023

I think it's gonna be the biggest sporting event globally this year. I really do. I think that the interest and the hype around that race, I mean, a Saturday night race down the strip in Vegas, who doesn't wanna be there?

The inaugural Las Vegas GP was a massive financial and viewership success, though 'biggest globally' is subjective compared to the Super Bowl or Champions League final.

Derma Sotogake will win the Kentucky Derby

There are two Japanese horses in the Derby this year. One of them is my pick to win the Derby. He's probably gonna be 7, 8, 9, 10 to one. His name is Derma Sotogake. And in my eyes, not only do you have the Japanese dominance right now, but he, to me, he looks like the fastest horse in the race.

Derma Sotogake finished 6th in the 149th Kentucky Derby. The race was won by Mage.

Flightline was a better horse than American Pharoah

Secretariat was the best... The four best horses that I've seen... were Secretariat, Flightline, Spectacular Bid, and American Pharoah... I would put 'em in that order. And I know some people think it's heresy to say that Flightline was better than American Pharoah... but I just think that Flightline was better.

This is a subjective historical ranking within horse racing that cannot be definitively proven.
