Kyrie Irving has become the elder statesman and leader in the Mavericks' locker room

Kyrie so settled in even more than last year, he's such a leader in the locker room. . . the fact that Kyrie has willingly stepped in to do all of that, the guys in that locker room love him. It's really unbelievable.

Numerous reports from within the Mavericks organization supported this during their Finals run.

The Celtics-Pacers series is over and it might even be a sweep

I do think that they're gonna beat the Pacers. . . I'm saying like in game. Don't get crazy in game three. I think it, it might even be a sweep because Tyrese Haliburton's probably not gonna play.

The Celtics did sweep the Pacers 4-0 to advance to the NBA Finals.

Luka Doncic is currently the best player left in the NBA playoffs

I said he is the best player left in the playoffs with four teams left. . . Luka Doncic, what he did on Wednesday night is why he's the best player left in the playoffs.

Luka led the Mavericks to the Finals and was the Western Conference Finals MVP, though they lost the Finals.

Anthony Edwards has not been good enough over his last six games

Anthony Edwards has not scored 20 points in four of his last six games. That's not good enough.

Edwards struggled at times during the Dallas series as the Wolves were eliminated.

I gave my NBA MVP vote to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

I actually voted for Shai. And it was a very, very, very hard vote... The Thunder had 18 more wins than the Nuggets. Right. At some point I don't always vote for the guy who's the highest in the standings, but at some point that matters. Right.

This is a statement of her personal action (voting), which is factually verifiable if ballots are public.

LeBron James should take significantly less money to win another championship ring

If it were me, I would say I will take significantly less, as less as it helps basically to make sure that we get other people in here who can help us win. Because here's the thing, you can't buy a championship ring after you retire all that money... He's not gonna feel any difference in his life.

Whether he 'should' take a pay cut is an opinion.

The Celtics will win the NBA Championship

Before the season I picked the Boston Celtics. With the Boston Celtics down two to one in this series, I still pick the Boston Celtics... they're the best complete team and they just won last year.

The Celtics were eliminated in the second round by the Knicks in 6 games. The Oklahoma City Thunder won the 2025 NBA Championship.
