The NBA Draft Lottery is rigged despite the league's attempts to prove otherwise

I think the media is now welcome at the draft lottery because he used to see it behind the scenes... he was laying it on thick. He was doing a lot of unrigable talk... if it was rigged, this is exactly how they would've rigged it. Exactly how they'd rig it. Exactly... you can pick and choose Max... that shit's fucking rigged and I fucking hate it and there should be an investigation.

Whether the lottery is rigged is a matter of conspiracy/subjectivity, though the league maintains it is verified by Ernst & Young.

LeBron James will opt out of his contract and finish his career in Cleveland

I'll say this PFT, LeBron, he's gonna opt out. He's gonna opt out. Could he, could he end his career in Cleveland? Could he fix everything? Well, no, he, he might opt out to take less money, but that would be fun if he did the opt out And we had like a day or two of being like, calves coming home one last time.

LeBron James eventually re-signed with the Lakers in the 2024 offseason (pre-dating the 2025 timeline of this episode), but within the context of the AI-generated 2025 date, it remains a common rumor.

The Detroit Tigers will win the American League

I'll say this right now. I think the Detroit Tigers are gonna win The AL. I don't know if they can win the World Series. There's some good teams in the NL... in the last month, it's like [Javi Baez] recaptured something and, and, and come back to the world as, as what the electrifying Javi Baez was.

The Tigers had a late-season surge in 2024 but did not win the AL. Since this is dated May 2025, it's a prediction for the 2025 season.

The Celtics can still win the NBA Championship even without Jayson Tatum

We have a bunch of champions on this team. We still have the Eastern Conference finals MVP, we have the finals MVP we ready to go... I still think we could win the championship, but that's where I'm at is, is just make it as far along in the season as we can because once the off season comes, a lot of things are gonna change.

Winning an NBA title without a First-Team All-NBA superstar is historically unprecedented, and losing a 3-1 lead while the star goes down makes this highly unlikely.

The Mavericks will trade the #1 pick for Giannis Antetokounmpo

The Giannis thing is interesting because Giannis did say that he wants to play in a state with no income tax reportedly. And would that, I I think they, the Bucks would absolutely do that trade right? Yeah, in a heartbeat... if you're the Bucks and you're like, Hey, we're not gonna win with Giannis, but we can get Cooper Flagg and reset everything. And the Mavs would be an immediate with Giannis.

A trade of this magnitude is rare, and Giannis remains under contract with Milwaukee through the 2026-27 season.

Installing a soft serve ice cream machine in the office is a life-changing move

I reassessed my life and I realized that a life without constant access to soft serve ice cream is not a life I want to live anymore... I trade [shooting a diamond out of my dick] in a heartbeat. I mean a soft serve machine. It's like a, it's a gold mine. It's a dream of mine. It's the best. I love soft serve ice cream. It's so good. And it's good for you.

The value of office ice cream is entirely subjective.

The Stanley Cup Final will be the Florida Panthers vs the Dallas Stars

I've said it from the beginning that it, it's gonna be Panther Stars. So I'm sticking with that... I'll still stick with Dallas coming out of the west and Florida coming out of the east and you know, just another, no, no Tax City Stanley Cup finals.

The Panthers won the Cup in 2024, but this prediction for 2025 will depend on the outcome of the 2025 NHL playoffs.

Jordan Hudson has appointed herself as Bill Belichick's agent and media manager

It turned out that she had appointed herself Bill Belichick's agent and was the one negotiating with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon... She was the one, or at least she had a very controlling interest in saying, we can't do North Carolina because we're doing that for something else... she was CC'd on every single email at Carolina by Belichick's request.

Public records and reporting from multiple outlets confirmed Hudson's involvement in Belichick's business affairs during this period.
