The New York Knickerbockers are officially three games away from ending a fifty-year drought, and Big Cat is ready to call the dynasty before the trophy is even in the building. After a gritty Game 1 comeback against the Spurs in San Antonio, the energy in the office is reaching a fever pitch. Jalen Brunson overcame a brief injury scare to absolutely take over the fourth quarter, solidifying himself as the most clutch player in the league right now.
Big CatThe Knicks may never lose another basketball game
The New York Knicks are three games away from the NBA title, and they may never lose a game again. 'cause we're gonna talk about game one. Come back win for The Knicks... they may never lose again. Now I'm talking about next season too. They might just be the best team to ever play playoff basketball.
While Brunson was the hero, Josh Hart put up a bizarrely dominant stat line that had PFT and Big Cat marvelling at how a guy can control a game without actually scoring. On the other side, Victor Wembanyama had a quiet night by his standards, which led PFT to question if the French phenom gets a pass for being a bit strange simply because of his accent.
PFT CommenterVictor Wembanyama's 'frenchness' gives him a mystical aura that shields him from being called corny
Would we hate Weby more if he was not French? Does his frenchness kind of give like a mystical aura to him when he's being weird when he is acting like aloof sometimes? If he was American, would we be like, this guy's a little bit corny? But he's French, so it's okay.
Despite the Spurs' loss, the guys isn't counting out Pop and Wemby just yet. PFT is so confident in a bounce-back that he's ready to risk it all on Game 2.
PFT CommenterI would put the house on the Spurs winning Game 2
I think the Spurs were probably tired. They were probably exhausted to a certain extent after a seven game series... I think they'll be okay in game number two. I would put the house on the Spurs win in game two.
The Haason Reddick and AJ Brown Soap Opera
Max took the lead on explaining the bizarre soap opera leaking out of the Philadelphia Eagles locker room. According to some deep-web burner threads and social media likes, there was a massive fallout involving AJ Brown, Haason Reddick, and Jalen Hurts over... a shared masseuse. The drama explains a lot about why Reddick was shipped to the Jets and why AJ Brown ended up in New England. Max was particularly fed up with the star receiver's behavior during the team's collapse last season.
MaxAJ Brown's antics last season were completely unacceptable and you rarely see that in an NFL locker room.
I don't know about what happened, what AJ Brown did. The past couple years has not happened in every locker room in America. Not a wide receiver one who's had three, all pros been to two Super Bowls won. One does not pull the antics that AJ Brown did last year. That does not happen in every locker room in America.
While the locker room drama was messy, PFT didn't mince words when it came to his feelings on the newly minted Jets linebacker involved in the scandal.
PFT CommenterHaason Reddick is a piece of shit.
Haason Reddick's a piece of shit, by the way.
Wyndham Clark on 'Opening Up Grape'
US Open Champion Wyndham Clark joined the show for an incredible interview that started with a deep dive into his recent victory and shooting a 28 on the back nine. However, the conversation quickly turned to his viral comment about "opening up some grape" to celebrate. While Big Cat tried to help him find a cooler way to describe drinking wine, Wyndham leaned into it, admitting he’s a bit bougie when it comes to old-world Italian reds.
Shooting a course record at an away club is only bad form at a few specific historic courses
I think that guy's making stuff up [about unwritten rules]... on tour, screw that. I want to beat everybody... there are some courses like Cyprus for for instance... maybe a Pine Valley... maybe a St. Andrews... outside of that, you would just, yeah. You try to shoot the course record, especially in an iconic place.
Wyndham was surprisingly relatable, admitting he falls for Instagram golf training aid ads just like the rest of us. He also discussed the shifting culture of the sport, noting that the presence of cross-over superstars has finally made golf feel like a cool kid's game.
Golf has become cool because of superstars like LeBron James and Steph Curry playing it
Golf is cool... COVID helped and then obviously now guys like Steph Curry and LeBron James and other like artists and rappers and celebrities are all doing it that everyone's like, oh, maybe golf's cool.
Fyre Fest: The Wizards Midlife Crisis
To wrap things up, PFT revealed a Fyre Fest that is essentially a cry for help. He officially purchased Washington Wizards season tickets—directly behind the bench—despite living in Chicago. It’s a move that Big Cat diagnosed as a classic midlife crisis purchase, though PFT insists it's just about fulfilling the dreams of his 12-year-old self.
PFT CommenterBuying front-row Washington Wizards season tickets is the ultimate midlife crisis purchase.
I think back all the time to like how I felt as a 12-year-old. And I think to myself, what did you want out of life?... I've made, I believe this is the biggest purchase outside of a house and a car. This is the biggest purchase of my life. I'm a Washington Wizard season ticket [holder]. Oh my God. And I'm talking some good seats. I sprung for some very, let's just say that I'm going to be able to have one-on-one conversations with Trae Young... They are directly behind the Wizards bench.
Whether he's actually going to fly to DC forty times a year or just give the tickets to listeners to watch a 20-win team, one thing is certain: the Wizards might be the only team in sports that can make the Knicks look like a well-oiled machine.
If the Knicks win the title, Memes might actually become a functional member of society, or he might just explode.
