The 2021 Bucks championship was one of the hardest NBA titles to win ever

I mean, look, we played the Brooklyn Nets in the second round. They've got three superstars... and it was definitely one of, if not the hardest. We started off with a team that we owed revenge to [Miami], and the Atlanta Hawks are a good young team... and the Phoenix Suns are obviously a great team.

Subjective sports debate about the difficulty of playoff runs.

The IOC and NBC are idiots for not letting people share Olympic clips online

The IOC in their infinite wisdom... doesn't want anyone sharing any Olympic clips, pictures, anything, because God forbid anyone talks about the Olympics and these random sports that you stumble upon... I can't understand... why tweeting a 20-second clip of a random sport like handball... is something they want to stop.

This is a subjective opinion on media policy, though the policy itself is a verified fact.

The Wisconsin Badgers could win the Olympic gold medal in basketball

I really do think that the Wisconsin Badgers could win the gold medal because it does feel like that's the style of basketball [in the Olympics]. I was actually thinking that probably the worst NBA team would have a better chance at winning the title than this group right now.

The 2021 Wisconsin Badgers would almost certainly not win Olympic gold against international professionals, though Team USA did eventually win gold regardless.

Olympic fencing should use sharper swords to make it more dangerous

I think they should have sharper swords and fencing. Like give me an element of danger. It should be death, death, death, but like maiming.

Fencing safety standards remain extremely high; sharp swords were not introduced.

The Boston Celtics have the best team remaining in the NBA playoffs

I do think unbiasedly, [the Celtics] have the best team left. At least in the East. When you talk about the West, I think the Denver-Minnesota series has been incredible.

The Celtics went on to win the 2024 NBA Championship, losing only 3 games in the entire postseason.
