The Celtics are a better overall team than the Warriors when playing at their peak
I think the Celtics still, if they play their best game are better as a team than the Warriors. The problem is if it's a close game late, the Warriors have so much more like we can win this game late than the Celtics.

View episodeThe Celtics will still win the NBA Finals because they perform best when their backs are against the wall
I still think [the Celtics] are going to win the series. I do think that the last 10 minutes of game four and five, there was just some infuriating plays... But I do think that it's very relatable of the Celtics to just put everything off until the end... They're procrastinating.

Is there a chance that neither of these teams are that great? I keep thinking that one team's going to assert themselves one or the other. And it's like, both these teams are very good.

I think a hundred percent they should be in. We need to just focus on the fact that there, I believe 31 and one and not do anything about strength of schedule. If you're able to go an entire season without losing a game that's hard to just wake up every day and not stumble once. I wanna see what happens when they play their first quad win one game in the middle of March.
Conference tournaments are bad for top teams because they don't improve your seeding and lead to unnecessary fatigue
I'm kind of done with the conference tournaments. Like they just fuck you. It doesn't make your seed better and you end up being more tired today. If you have to play four games, you're just gonna get screwed.
Kyler Murray will be the next Sam Darnold now that he's with the Vikings
Kyler Murray is a Viking. We all kind of expected it. It happened. He's going to be the next Sam Darnold. The NFC North now has three number one picks at quarterback with Kyler Murray, Caleb Williams, Jared Goff. Kind of cool.
