Recap
Big CatThe Warriors are totally fine in the NBA Finals even without Kevin Durant
I actually think the Warriors are totally fine. I mean, that's not like a hot take, but Klay's going to be back. I think they – sitting Klay, they were like, look, we're the Warriors. Like, we'll be fine. Let's get him 100% healthy or close to 100%. ... But they know that they can win on the road.
Big CatI don't think Kevin Durant will play at all in this series
I don't think Kevin Durant's going to play this series. We've said that on Wednesday. ... I like how we're getting even further away. Like, we're going to rule him out for Game 5, the minute Game 4 ends.
PFT CommenterMark Stevens pushed Kyle Lowry because his 4K technology makes him think the players aren't real
He's exposed to all the finest in 4K 3D technology when it comes to watching these games live. He's probably watched games on his couch where it felt like the players were diving into his living room. So he's probably comfortable shoving at them and getting away with it because they're not real. So when he's at a game, he can't tell what's in the Matrix and what's real life.
Big CatPaul Pierce is a coward who didn't actually poop his pants in the 2008 Finals
Paul Pierce... I actually don't really buy it. I don't buy it either. I think he admitted as much that he was just using it kind of to get a headline as a joke. ... I think Paul Pierce has just waited till it's been like the tide has turned on it. And he's like, now it's safe to say this. So he's doing it. He's kind of a coward. And he's not only a coward, but he's doing it. And I don't think he actually had to poop his pants. I think he just thought he was really, really injured.
Fyre Fest
HankThe Jonas Brothers are actually not losers and their documentary is good
My Firefest of the week is that I watched a Jonas Brothers documentary, and I actually really liked them. You go in and you're like, oh, Jonas Brothers, those guys are losers. Only teenage girls like them... Then you watch the documentary. You realize they were grinding for three years.
Big CatCord cutters are not real sports fans
People who are cord cutters are not sports fans. I'm just going to say it right now. Because you are buffering and you're watching a minute behind. You care more about the money you're saving than sports, than the actual sports and being up to date. You are not a real sports fan.
Interview
Paul RabilThe tour-based model is the best way for a niche sport like lacrosse to make a national impact
We're tour-based. ... When you're a smaller sport like lacrosse, we needed to capitalize on the players, on venues and distribution. ... If we were to label cities to them, that we would just be really local and we wouldn't be able to capitalize on this national growth. ... Some fan in San Francisco and New York can just pick their allegiance.
Big CatFor the health of the Premier Lacrosse League, Paul Rabil needs to get into a fight in week one
You got to fight like week one to get it out there. Like you know that right? Like for the health of the league, you have to fight.
Thoughts And Prayers
PFT CommenterIf you own $500,000 worth of any singular product, people should be allowed to steal it if they can get their hands on it
I actually have a theory that if you own $500,000 worth of any product, people should be allowed to steal it if they can get their hands on it. ... But any singular product. ... Like Dwight Howard's snakes.
Respect The Biz
Big CatZdeno Chara is the sports respecter of journalism of the year for writing down answers with a broken jaw
Zdeno Chara has a broken jaw, he can't speak, and he still met with the press and answered questions by writing down his answers. Class act. ... The respecter of journalism of the year. Sports player who respects journalism the most of the year.

Jilly FootballI am a 49ers and Michigan fan
Professional football teams would have to be the 49ers. ... I have to be the 49ers. I love Joe Montana. ... [College?] Go blue. Michigan.
