Recap
HankBrooks Koepka would have won the PGA Championship by 15 strokes if his knee was healthy
[Brooks Koepka's] knee is hurting him, and he wasn't able to get all the way low to read putts, and the putter is what kind of killed him today and this weekend. So Ipso facto, he probably would have won this tournament by 15 strokes if his knee was okay.
HankThe Celtics vs. Nets series is basically over after Game 1
Obviously, the Celtics lost. That first half, though. They had a great first half. They had a chance. Kemba Walker played terribly in the second half, and the series is basically over. Sweep. Maybe gentlemen's sweep.
Big CatBen Simmons is the greatest basketball player who cannot score of all time
He went six points, 15 rebounds, 15 assists. He might be the greatest basketball player who cannot score of all time. He's broken the game. He can't score. You would think that it would be impossible for a guy that is bad at shooting to be an elite basketball player. But he's somehow figured out a way to be insanely good at basketball while also not scoring points.
Big CatThe Lakers money line in Game 2 against the Suns is the lock of my lifetime
I responsibly, 1-800-GAMBLER, if you have a problem, I think the Lakers game two is the lock of my lifetime. I think LeBron will answer. And AD, like we said, he forgets that he's a seven-footer. He thinks he's a mouse. He's an elephant. The Lakers will be fine in this series, and LeBron will start dominating, and it will all be for naught.
PFT CommenterThe Suns will win their first-round series against the Lakers
I disagree with you. I think the Suns are going to win. I think they're going to win the series. I've just been down this path too many times. It's just too many times for LeBron to give up game one and to be like, oh, there it is.
Big CatThe Knicks will win their first-round series against the Hawks
I do think the Knicks are going to win this series. I do think they'll make adjustments. And I love that the Mecca leads the league in dudes rocking jerseys with nothing underneath. It's fucking awesome.
Interview
Big CatJohn Tavares will be out for the remainder of the NHL playoffs
And also that John Tavares got hurt and is probably out. Do you think he's out for the playoffs? I would assume. I don't know.
Paul BissonnetteThe 2021 Stanley Cup Final will be the Colorado Avalanche vs. the Tampa Bay Lightning
Colorado and Tampa in the finals. So Tampa will be going for it back to back. I would say Colorado, Tampa, and that would be good for hockey. Two Southern markets in the United States thriving.
Paul BissonnetteColorado is a Southern team because it is south of the Canadian border
Based on the North American scale, Colorado is considered Southern. No, he's saying in the middle of the country, not North America. You're saying North America? I meant all the teams in play, they're one of the southern teams. Anything south of the Canadian border is southern.
