The Nets are a legit super team and are asserting dominance even without James Harden

I think the Nets are a legit super team. These guys are missing James Harden... and they are still crushing it with Kevin Durant, who has snapped back into pre-injury form. When Joe Harris, the best catch-and-shoot guy in the league, is your fourth option, man, you're a super team.

The Nets eventually lost to the Bucks in 7 games after injuries to Kyrie Irving and James Harden limited their 'super team' potential.

Aaron Rodgers might move to Ecuador and go off the grid entirely

I think there's something telling me that [Rodgers] might just go off the grid entirely. Like Aaron Rodgers might just not show up on a football field ever again. He might move to Ecuador and go live out in the rainforest with Shailene Woodley.

Aaron Rodgers continued playing for the Packers and later the Jets, never moving to an Ecuadorian rainforest.

A 12-team playoff will make the college football regular season matter more

The regular season, people will say, oh, the regular season doesn't matter as much. No, I think the regular season matters more because it used to be if you have one game that you lose, you're out. Now the game's at the end of the season. Teams jockeying for those conference title games, for higher seating. It all matters.

The 12-team playoff was eventually adopted and launched in 2024, confirming the move happened as discussed.

Don't bet against Kawhi Leonard in the playoffs

The last thing I'll say is don't bet against Kawhi Leonard in the playoffs. This dude came down from 2-0 in that first round series with one of the all time performances... he's really doing stuff that nobody else is doing.

Kawhi Leonard suffered a partially torn ACL in the very next series (Game 4 against the Jazz), ending his playoff run.

Jokic is the most skilled big man we have ever seen

He's the most skilled player in the world. He does everything at a very high level... the best floater in the league, but he is also an incredible jump shooter. And that's not even a strength. So long story short, he's just the most skilled big man we've ever seen.

While debatable vs. Kareem or Wilt, Jokic's unique triple-double ability and shooting for a center make this a valid, high-level opinion.

Tyrese Halliburton is the most underrated player in the playoffs

That take [him being overrated] is aging very poorly, very poorly. They are five in one in the Playoffs... he might be the most underrated player in these NBA playoffs. I think he deserves some flowers. He deserves some of those media cycles where we're like, he's 25 and he's three wins away from bringing his team to the conference finals two years in a row.

Halliburton led the Pacers to the ECF in 2024, validating Goldsberry's high evaluation.

NBA Finals prediction: Celtics vs. Thunder

I'm sticking with the Boston Celtics, Bing bong hanky. I still support the Celtics and you know, I'm sticking with the with the thunder and I'm a little bit nervous today. I think Boston has a much easier path to the finals than OKC.

The Celtics made the finals and won; the Thunder lost in the second round to the Mavericks.
