It's funny to catch on to a trend or hype cycle way late after it's no longer cool

It's funny to not be... eating on the hype when it's hot. Catch it way later. And then bring it back. Revive it.

This is an aesthetic/comedic philosophy.

It is responsible to continue betting after your child is born because the baby might be good luck

It's actually responsible of you from a fiscal standpoint to continue betting, if not more so than you were before, because the baby might be good luck.

This is a subjective piece of humorous advice about gambling luck.

I'm throwing it out there that I have 350-pound dad strength now

I want to do like a full study on whether dad strength is a real thing. 350 probably. I'm going to throw that out there. 350. I'd say dad strength is a thing. Yep.

Big Cat almost certainly cannot bench 350 pounds.

Zion Williamson is the most beloved athlete in the last 20 years

Is Zion Williamson the most beloved athlete in the last 20 years? The most beloved. I'm talking about everyone loves him... universallly sports fans it feels like everyone's rooting for [Zion].

While Zion was extremely popular in 2019, his reputation became complicated by injuries and off-court drama in subsequent years, making the 'most beloved' tag debatable.

I am officially anti-biopic; the industry needs to let stories finish before buying the rights.

I've taken a bit of a stance against Biopics. I'm somewhat antibio pic. I just think enough. We've done 'em all and people are starting to get the rights to stories before they're even done happening. Like the Luigi Mangione thing happens... and then it's like someone gets the rights the next day. Let the story at least end before you buy the rights to it and start casting someone.

This is a subjective opinion about artistic and industry trends.

The Lakers have become a 'novelty situation' because of the Bronny James drafting.

The second we drafted [Bronny], I knew, I was like, damnit, we've just signed up for like a novelty situation. Which I'm happy for 'em, but like, they got the photos already. They're on the court doing the dad son hug some passes. I think maybe they just are waiting to get an oop, and then that'll be it.

Whether a team's strategy is a 'novelty' or a genuine competitive move is subjective.

The 2020 Lakers Bubble championship counts the most because it removed all distractions and travel advantages.

If anything, 2020 counts the most. Listen, you take out all the distractions and you just boil that game down to who's truly the best. Everyone plays on the same court, you get no traveling for the guy who's in his late thirties. No traveling. It's tougher on those young guys; they don't have families they had to deal with missing. The older guys have to deal with that. If anything, that was just a testament.

The 'value' of a championship is entirely subjective and a matter of fan debate.
