The Luka Doncic trade is the most shocking in NBA history

It's not hyperbole to say this is probably the most shocking trade in NBA history. Just because [Doncic] is 25 years old. He's one of the top five players in the NBA. He just took his team to the finals and he gets traded to the Lakers with no bidding whatsoever.

The Mystery Team in the Luka trade was likely invented just to make the Mavs GM feel better

There was a mystery team. I think it was added just to make [Nico Harrison] the Mavs GM feel a little better. But it seems like they did this deal... maybe you're in debt to the ownership of the Lakers. Maybe you need a favor from the Lakers at a later date.

Kentucky fans should boo Coach Cal when he returns

Coach Cal going back to Kentucky... Drop his nuts on Kentucky. That sucked for Kentucky fans. You boom him. You can celebrate him when time has passed and he's not coaching in the SEC anymore. You boo him when he comes back right now. Agreed. He's a league rival.

When you go on the field as a quarterback, you cannot leave any room for doubt. I think one way of doing that is... you have to go out there thinking that you are God's gift to this thing. It's an intense level of confidence. I knew that I was aware also of how good I was at football... I was probably the best player.

The decision to play quarterback at an NFL level is binary: 100% in or out

To go back to playing quarterback, you're either like all in or you're not. It's a, to me, in my mind, the schema of how you emotionally, physically, psychologically, spiritually invested in quarterback is binary. You either aren't or you are 100% in. And I had a point in my life where I was like, I am unwilling to hop to the 100% in so I can't do it.

I would decline an offer to play in the Super Bowl as a last-minute emergency replacement

[If asked to play in the Super Bowl without practicing for a whole season] No, thank you. Appreciate it. And I'll tell you why: that's cheap. You gotta go all season. You gotta practice. You gotta earn that. I'd be hyped for the Colts though, if they're there.
