HankThe Celtics might be cursed due to the rare Kristaps Porziņģis injury
I spent the full Uber up there when I thought I had my backpack. I'm thinking I'm just getting on the flight. I'm like, we're cursed, we're cursed, we're cursed, we're cursed. Like is there a chance we're cursed? This is bad.

I just wanna say that the United States men's national team should fire Greg Berhalter on the record. He was fired in 2022 and then they brought him back... we lost five one to Colombia. Right. And this is... it's not gonna happen. We know it's not gonna happen, but we're still keeping 'em around and it's very frustrating.

Zach Wilson is currently in the mix for the starting job. What? In Denver. Which is crazy because Sean Peyton, he compared Bo Nix to Peyton Manning and Drew Brees. So imagine how good Zach Wilson has to be to be competing to start over a combination of Peyton Manning and Drew Brees.

Kevin LoveKyrie Irving has to step up for Dallas to have any chance in Game 3
My boy, Kyrie Irving really has to step up in game three... tomorrow game three is, is is the series. They have to win that one. But in order for that to happen, Kyrie has to be himself and he just wasn't in, in those first two games. It's as simple as that.
Kevin LoveThe top five players in the world are Jokić, Luka, SGA, Embiid, and Giannis
Top five in the world. It's very important. I think Joker is, yeah, yeah. Joker is, but I'm always like all things considered... Joker is up there, certainly Luca, SGA and bead, Giannis.
Kevin LoveA healthy Joel Embiid would have led the 76ers to a win over the Knicks
Joel, when he's at in peak form. Yeah. And he's feeling good. Like if he was healthy throughout the playoffs, I, I believe that they, they do beat the Knicks.
