Tyronn Lue is not a very good NBA head coach
You know what's funny? Yeah, I don't know. I don't think [Tyronn Lue] is very good. I'm trying to be nice about it. ... The rotations are still a mess. And they weren't very good in the finals last year either.

The Raptors are the softest team I've ever watched. And having Fred VanVleet take the game-winning shot in overtime, how do you have DeRozan and Lowry and you have these guys... they shrink in every big moment. They're so soft that they made Kevin Love look like the tough guy.
Matt Murray sucks and his glove hand is a liability
Murray sucks. Murray sucks on ice. His glove hand stinks. And his glove leg sucks too. I think he had a stroke. I think the left side of his body has been paralyzed.
This feels like the year the Capitals finally get past the Penguins and win it all
Feels like this is a year. Feels good. We might be a little biased because we're all such big Caps fans here, but 2-1 [in the series] feels good.

View profileThe Indiana Pacers won the trade deadline by adding Ivica Zubac while maintaining a path to a top-four pick
I look at the Pacers, you know, like you add a top five center in [Zubac]... you clean up some of your cap stuff, you bring in a top center who's gonna make you a little different... and then you have a chance at the top four pick here... I like what they did because they were doing something long-term while also making sure that they're tanking.
The Milwaukee Bucks should not play Giannis Antetokounmpo for the rest of the season
I don't even think Milwaukee would want Giannis to come back and play... They should want to do whatever they can with this pick 'cause they don't have many of 'em. And Giannis probably shouldn't even wanna play and risk health and risk this contract extension that he can get before next fall. So the tanking is gonna get egregious.
The Clippers made a smart pivot trading James Harden for Darius Garland
I like what the Clippers did... I don't think Darius Garland is this bad. He's a two-time all star. He's 26 years old... when he was right, he was terrific. And Harden... fourth trade request in six years. So the Clippers very quickly on the fly... you'll look at the Garland thing and go, man, they were able to land a player like that for Harden.
