Recap
Big CatThe Pacers have alligator blood and never die
The Pacers are just, they, they, they have alligator blood, they do not die. And they, they have a belief in Tyrese Halliburton... I really think that it's like, they, they are built for this type of situation where it's like, you've seen it two times in the last three games where they're just gonna keep going at you and they're not gonna give up.
PFT CommenterCavs fans poking the bear by calling Tyrese Halliburton overrated was a dumb move
Then you poked the bear to start the game. That was the dumbest move that the Cavs fans could have done is to chant overrated at Halliburton before it got started. Why would you do that? He already knows that his fellow players talk about him being overrated. You don't have to remind him of it, that's gonna piss him off a little bit.
PFT CommenterIf Steph Curry wins FMVP with a torn hamstring, he is ahead of LeBron James
If Steph Curry wins NBA finals, MVP by the way, with a, a torn hamstring. He has a, a torn hamstring I think... You gotta put him ahead of LeBron.
Big CatIt might be Canada's year to win the Stanley Cup
I'm starting to think it might be the Leafs year. It might be Canada this year because we also had the Oilers win Tonight Game One against the Knights. And we have, so the Oilers are up one. Oh, the leaves are up one. Oh. And the Jets are still there.
HankCeltics in five
I'm not worried about the series at all. I'm not worried about the, the strategy or the team or anything. Like, there's only so much you can do when you miss [45 threes]. Celtics in five.
Big CatNikola Jokic is the best player playing basketball in the world
Nicole Jokic is the best player in the world. He is the best player playing basketball right now in the world. He had 42, 22 and six. It was an MVP off with him and SGA who also was very good with 33, 10 and eight.
Interview
Jerry O'ConnellThe Knicks have 1986 Mets magic to beat Boston
Very reminiscent of the 86 Mets. And how they, and how they beat the Boston Red Sox. It really is reminiscent of that. A New York team just rising from the ashes, like a phoenix to destroy Austin sports. It is, it was so much fun.
Kirk GoldsberryJokic is the most skilled big man we have ever seen
He's the most skilled player in the world. He does everything at a very high level... the best floater in the league, but he is also an incredible jump shooter. And that's not even a strength. So long story short, he's just the most skilled big man we've ever seen.
Kirk GoldsberryTyrese Halliburton is the most underrated player in the playoffs
That take [him being overrated] is aging very poorly, very poorly. They are five in one in the Playoffs... he might be the most underrated player in these NBA playoffs. I think he deserves some flowers. He deserves some of those media cycles where we're like, he's 25 and he's three wins away from bringing his team to the conference finals two years in a row.
Kirk GoldsberryNBA Finals prediction: Celtics vs. Thunder
I'm sticking with the Boston Celtics, Bing bong hanky. I still support the Celtics and you know, I'm sticking with the with the thunder and I'm a little bit nervous today. I think Boston has a much easier path to the finals than OKC.
Big CatThe Timberwolves will win their series against the Warriors
I have the Timberwolves winning this series simply because like the offensive depth is isn't isn't a good enough to outscore the Timberwolves, but I also don't think they'll be able to play Go bear off the court like that. Yeah. Okay. All right. So yeah, I guess my pick would then be the Timberwolves.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
HankCaleb Williams being seen with supermodels makes him a QB1 over Jaden Daniels
Caleb Williams was in Miami and he got out of a car at a restaurant with three different like supermodels. Hell yeah. That's that's that's a QB one you want. Yeah. That's QB one actually. That's Aura. Not a helicopter mom. 24-year-old.
PFT CommenterSovereignty is a pussy for skipping the Preakness
I'm saying I'm gonna prank call sovereignty. I we should harass this horse. This is a beta horse. This is what happens. It's a horse that's been coddled its entire life... Sovereignty's a puss. Let's just stop beating around at this horse is a fucking pussy.
