Anyone who thinks my shooting slumps are related to my podcasting is an idiot

I always on my podcast say like anybody who thinks that my shooting is related to how much I'm doing a podcast is a fucking [idiot]... if you think that me stepping aside for 45 minutes a week to do a podcast [is the cause]... guys are doing whatever they're doing... hours and hours streaming video games.

The causal link between a weekly 45-minute recording and professional shooting percentages is impossible to prove or disprove.

Wisconsin will probably be a two-seed in the 2022 NCAA tournament

now we're sitting here in the call center and they're a two seed, probably a two seed. At least I don't want him to be a one seed. That's too much pressure.

Wisconsin ultimately received a 3-seed in the 2022 NCAA Tournament Midwest region.

I am a phonetic reader, so Jakob Poeltl's name is Jacob Puddle

We've learned on the show—I am a phonetic reader. Jacob Puddle. I said Yaka Pearl. I'm seeing Yaka Patil. Either way, he told me her name.

The joke is correct about Hank's reading style, but 'Jacob Puddle' is obviously not the correct pronunciation of Jakob Poeltl.

Zion Williamson is a better player when he is fat

I'm going to say something controversial. I think that Zion Williamson is a better player when he's fat. I want him to get fat. Well, in fact, well he D he doesn't play right now. He's a better players to get fatter. Yeah. He just needs to get so fat that they roll them out there.

This is a subjective and satirical claim about performance vs. weight.

Handshake lines in college athletics are outdated and should be removed

and shake lines in general for college athletics is, I mean, it's just like, it's outdated. ... what do you expect after a heated, competitive game sportsmanship, but we got rid of them with COVID and I think that should have just been like the [end].

This is an opinion on sports tradition and etiquette.

Bronny James could probably start for Williams College as a 16-year-old

somebody was just asking me, honestly, I'm not, I'm not qualified to speak on it. I'm not tapped into high school basketball... [but] I'm going to say, I'm gonna say probably just for like just sheer athleticism from, you know, I've had the, the Williams debate a lot division three basketball.

Bronny James went on to be a high-major D1 recruit at USC and was drafted into the NBA, so starting at a D3 school is almost certainly accurate.

Jimmy Butler is a great teammate and the media perception of him is wrong

Jimmy Butler is a great teammate. I don't understand the media twist on what he is... he challenges people and he pushes people, and a lot of people aren't willing or wanting to maybe hear that. But in reality, it's just trying to achieve success... He's certainly had a huge impact on my career.

Butler's success in Miami, leading them to multiple Finals appearances, largely validated this 'culture' argument over the previous 'cancer' narrative.
