Connor McDavid is the best athlete in the world.
I'm gonna keep backing the best player I've ever seen... [McDavid] is breaking records and he's doing things that haven't been done in about 40 years in the NHL. He's joining the list of Gretzky and Lemieux every season. Watching him like night in and night out, it looks like a different league. It looks like an alien on the ice.

Welcome to Pardon My Take. Today is Friday, June 2nd and it's Nuggets in four.
Jamal Murray is currently the best 'Robin' (second option) in the NBA.
Jamal Murray continues his stretch of being like the best. Is he the best Robin going right now? He's definitely... if he was on a team with anybody except for Jokic, everybody would talk about him being the finals MVP. He is the best Robin.
Watching a big man who can pass is the best thing to watch in all of sports.
Watching a big man that can pass like Jokic is maybe my favorite thing in all of sports to watch. I'm thinking through every single league... but I actually think that watching a big man that is just throwing no look passes over his head from the post down low... that's my favorite thing in all sports.

View profileConnor McDavid is playing the best hockey of his career in this Olympic tournament
I don't know if McDavid's ever been this good... It's incredible. Like I think he gave guys maybe six or seven grade A scoring chances. He had seven shots on his own. Then the Finnish coach today said, yeah, McDavid is the best player in this tournament by a mile.
Sidney Crosby's Olympic injury is likely an MCL sprain
He was trying to stabilize on his right leg and it just, it opened up, which to me speaks MCL sprain... I'm hoping it's not too bad and it's just a grade one, maybe two MCL sprain.
Team USA has a better defensive corps than Canada, but Canada has significantly better forwards
The D's better overall. I believe their forwards are significantly better than ours... Crosby being out, it's scary. And if he's out, that's a big difference... On D our D's better, their forwards are better.
