Recap
Big CatCooper Flagg could make close to a billion dollars in the NBA by age 32
If everything goes well for [Cooper Flagg] and he signs all of his extensions and everything... he could make close to a billion dollars in the NBA by age 32. He has a $62 million rookie deal... then he'd get the 30% supermax, which would be $359 million. And then he would get the 35% supermax, which would be $509 million.
Big CatThe Pelicans' trade from pick 23 to 13 was the worst trade ever
Pelicans. Oh boy. Yep. That was the worst trade ever. They traded from 23 up to 13 and they gave away their unprotected first round pick next year. Actually worse than that... they gave whichever one is better, is higher. And if the Bucks trade Giannis, that could literally just be two shots at getting the one pick.
PFT CommenterThe Wizards must change their name back to the Bullets to fix their culture
They need to change their name so bad. They gotta go back to the bullets. I think you go back to the bullets day one, culture change, different mentality. Your shooters again.
PFT CommenterDick Monfort promoting his son to COO is a classic case of nepotism that won't fix the Rockies
The Colorado, we, we've given a lot of shit to their owner. Dick Monfort piece of shit... And he promoted his oldest son. Oh. To be Chief Operating Officer... They're not content to, to mi away in the slums of mediocrity. They're gonna fix it out by just having his son do all the things he was gonna do.
Big CatBen Simmons hitting threes in a wide-open gym is the official sign of summer
We have the first sign of summer and it's Ben Simmons in a wide open gym hitting threes. He looked good. He looked so good... That's, that literally means summer's here.
Interview
Keith YandleConnor McDavid will win a Stanley Cup, but it will not be in Edmonton
Can [Connor McDavid] win the big one? Yes. Not in Edmonton. Oh, okay. I like that. That's a good take.
Ryan WhitneyThe Edmonton Oilers cannot win a Stanley Cup with their current goaltending
I said on Chiclets, like they don't have a goalie that you can win the Stanley Cup with. Now, once again, they were one game away from winning the cup with him... But if your starting goalie is getting pulled and losing his job in back to back playoffs, I don't think you have a Stanley Cup goalie. No.
Ryan WhitneyThe NHL will have an ambidextrous 'Shohei Ohtani' player within 30 years
I think we're gonna get the Shohei of hockey. The Shohei Ohtani ambidextrous NHL player that would rock... You'd have the straight stick and then you drive wide and be unreal Righty. And you'd drive wide and be unreal lefty. I just think that at some point you're gonna see things that you never thought imaginable.
Ryan WhitneyJoe Burrow's terrible first pitch was a staged viral marketing stunt by Fanatics
I think that whole fucking fanatics thing was just like, they basically listed like, alright, what's gonna go viral? Let's make a fake viral thing here... And they were like, Joe Burrow, we're gonna pay you like $2 million suck at throwing baseballs. That's the only way I can stomach it.
Keith YandleDak Prescott would be just as successful as Jalen Hurts if he played for the Eagles
I'm more thinking the defense was nasty... I think it's kind of hard to definitively say that Dak Prescott couldn't do what Jalen Hurts [does] if he had that much.
