Adding Kevin Durant to the Phoenix Suns would make them a major threat to win the Western Conference

The Phoenix Suns are prepared to pursue Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant... that scares me a little bit because I do think that the Suns with Kevin Durant would probably become a significant threat... the West is crazy. The West has every team could win it right now.

The Suns did acquire Durant and became a top contender, though they lost in the second round of the playoffs to the Nuggets.

Kirk Cousins' Pro Bowl victory proves he can win big games

Kirk Cousins leads NFC to a comeback. So there you go. All the haters that say Kirk Cousins can't win a big game. He just won the Pro Bowl Flag Football challenge.

Literally correct that he won the flag football game, but the take is entirely ironic.

Kyrie Irving to the Mavericks is a good move because there's only half a season for his 'team cancer' to spread

I think it's a good move for the Mavericks because he only has half a season for his team cancer to spread. So this is like a good window for Kyrie... it's hard to destroy a brand new team in like four months.

The Mavs actually missed the playoffs and even the play-in tournament entirely in 2023 after the trade, so it did not work out well in the short term.

The Kyrie Irving trade raises the Mavericks' ceiling but makes their floor 'lava'

This trade to the Mavericks raises their ceiling but makes the floor lava. And that's perfect... In a world where this all works out, you now added like... a walking bucket.

The Mavericks finished 11th in the West, missing the postseason, which arguably hit the 'lava' floor in the immediate aftermath.

The Ravens are using Maxx Crosby's failed physical as a convenient excuse to back out of the trade

Either one, [the Ravens] really trust the doctor to believe them on that or two, it's bullshit and it's made up and they're secretly planning a different move and they're using the physical as an excuse to get out of it.

The trade was indeed rescinded, but whether the 'physical failed' was a legitimate medical concern or a front for buyer's remorse remains a matter of speculation.

The Raiders' short statement indicates Mark Davis is furious about the rescinded trade

The statement that the Raiders put out said a lot, which is just like 'they backed out of the trade. We have no further comment.' That to me sounds like a pissed off Mark Davis.

This is an interpretation of tone and cannot be objectively proven true or false.

The NFL's two-day 'legal tampering' window is a dangerous gift for GMs with buyer's remorse

This two day period is so weird because something like this can happen and then nothing that has been reported over the last day actually has to happen. Right. Nothing's final yet.

This accurately describes the mechanics of the legal tampering period.
