The Lakers are not going to lose to the Nuggets because NBA history favors the bigger franchise

The Lakers aren't gonna lose to the Nuggets... just as NBA history goes. It sucks to have in my head, and I hope it's wrong, but it's the Lakers and the Nuggets. The Patriots aren't going to lose to the Falcons, and the Lakers aren't going to lose to the Nuggets.

Incorrect. The Nuggets swept the Lakers 4-0 in the Western Conference Finals.

Jayson Tatum officially has a 'dog' in him after Game 7

I think the real winner in this series should be us for saying that Jayson Tatum is the best player on the court and he needs to get a dog. We were dog used dog salesman adoption counselors and we set up a tent outside Jayson Tatum's house. And he adopted a dog from us. He's got a dog now.

Subjective sports analysis about a player's mentality.

Jayson Tatum is a top five player in the NBA

I think Jayson Tatum is a phenomenal, phenomenal basketball player, top five player. There are times when he floats and isn't aggressive and it drives me insane. Cause this is the type of guy that should go and take a series and that's exactly what he did.

General ranking of NBA players is subjective.

Doc Rivers is now 17 and 33 straight up with a chance to clinch a series. That means 33 losses is the most of any coach in NBA history with a chance to clinch a series. 34% when his team has a chance to clinch.

This was widely reported as a fact following the Sixers' loss to the Celtics in 2023.

The Ravens are abandoning their draft-and-develop philosophy because they've drafted poorly lately

The Ravens feel like the team for however long, I mean, pretty much their entire history, it's like what they do is they draft really well. They don't have to do these type of moves. And then they do this move... maybe the Ravens haven't drafted as well recently. So now they do have to join everyone else and be these guys.

The Ravens have a three-to-four-year window with Lamar Jackson to go all in and win a Super Bowl

Are the Ravens basically saying Lamar Jackson, he's 29, he's got, we got like a three, four year window where we're gonna have to go all in here? You're kind of forking the road. Are you trying to keep your draft capital to keep reloading around Lamar Jackson? You're like, 'Hey, let's go win this right now.'

The Ravens' success in this window depends on winning a Super Bowl before Lamar Jackson hits his 30s.

The NFL center market is currently the hottest position market in the world

The center market actually feels like it's the hottest market out there. The Packers signed their center who started seven games signed for 11 million a year. The center market just might be the hottest market in the world.

While 'hottest in the world' is hyperbolic, the sentiment reflects the actual 2026 free agency center market trends.
