Bill Walton died because his work on earth was done once the Pac-12 ended

The Pac-12 ends, Bill's like, well my work here is done. [He's] probably hanging out with Jerry Garcia right now and the Pac-12 is on 24/7.

The Celtics are a seasoned team that has overcome their past tendencies to 'turtle up' in close games

The Celtics are a seasoned team that knows how to make big plays and that's what they did time and time again in this series. In the past when it feels like they turtle up in close games... they didn't do that at all. They found a way to win.

The NBA Finals schedule is idiotic for making fans wait until June 6th regardless of when the conference finals end

I'm rooting for double sweep just so we can make fun of the NBA scheduling. Fans have to book their hotels and tickets months ago... there's no way an NBA fan books their hotels and plane tickets for the Finals months in advance. It doesn't make any sense.

Michael Jordan is the best player I ever played against

The 1986 Celtics are the greatest team of all time, better than the 1996 Bulls

My wife fell for me because I dominated her previous boyfriend in flag football at BYU

That's close [to what happened]. He played center, I played quarterback... that's what I claimed to my wife. That's when she fell for me. I wasn't supposed to be playing flag football.
