The Bulls' success relies on other NBA stars getting season-ending injuries in April

Everyone basically – the strategy in the NBA now is either tank and rebuild or build a team like the Bulls where you're hoping [LeBron], [Kyrie], Al Horford, [Kawhi], [Steph Curry], [Kevin Durant], [CP3] – all get season ending injuries sometime around April and i think that if that happens the bulls have positioned themselves into a nice spot where they could at least get to the eastern conference finals right

The 2016-17 Bulls finished 41-41 and lost in the first round. The superstars listed did not suffer catastrophic simultaneous injuries in April.

Any roster move with an 'I'm Coming Home' video makes me ready to run through a brick wall

Any roster move that's ever been made, if you put I'm coming home and you do a little 30-second video on the internet, I'm ready to run through a brick wall.

Subjective emotional reaction to sports media.

Dwyane Wade is going to win a title in Chicago

Dwyane Wade, he's going to win a title in Chicago. I don't know how it's going to work. They have [Rajon] Rondo, Jimmy Butler, and Dwyane Wade who all play isolation basketball for a coach that wants to move the ball and shoot threes. None of them shoot threes, but... Diddy and Skylar Grey had that video, baby.

Wade only played one season in Chicago, and they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.

Any team with a 'Big Three' is automatically at least a three seed

The key is as long as you can assemble a group of three people together and call them the big three, then you're automatically going to be like at least a three seed. Right. That's the rule.

The 2016-17 Bulls (Wade, Butler, Rondo) finished as the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference.

College basketball has five absolutely dominant teams this year

We have five, you could even maybe go to six, just absolutely dominant teams. Michigan, UConn, Duke, Arizona, and Florida that are playing at such an insane level.

The dominance of these teams will be tested in the upcoming NCAA tournament in March 2026.

Florida can win the national championship because they can shoot threes now

Florida though, I've been talking about Florida for three weeks. They could shoot threes now. They absolutely kicked [Arkansas's]... They just throttle teams. All four of [Duke, Michigan, Arizona, Florida] would be the best team in the previous five years.

Whether Florida wins the title or performs as an elite team will be decided by the end of March Madness.

Miami of Ohio will make the tournament even if they lose in the conference tournament

I'm saying right now, winning every... If they go undefeated in the conference, that is so hard to do. I think if they go undefeated in the conference and then lose in the conference tournament, I think they will be in.

This will be resolved on Selection Sunday, March 15th, 2026.
