Being LeBron James' teammate is the most difficult job in the world

Being LeBron's teammate has to be like the most difficult job in the world. Not on the court because LeBron is obviously one of the best all time on the court... But it's, every time you lose, it's someone else's fault. Every time you win, it's, LeBron did it.

This is a subjective assessment of team dynamics and media perception.

The Saints will beat the Cardinals 23-17

I'm gonna say Saints 23, Cardinals 17.

The Cardinals won 42-34, which is significantly different from the predicted low-scoring Saints win.

Cliff Kingsbury is performing exactly as his resume suggested he would and is not a disappointment

I think people don't realize that Cliff Kingsbury is exactly who they thought he was when they hired him. Like, he has not been a disappointment based on his resume. He's been exactly what you should have thought that you were gonna get. He showed you what he is and he's been that.

This is a subjective assessment of Kingsbury's coaching pedigree versus his NFL output.

The Lakers are only plus-160 to miss the playoffs, which is a juicy bet

They're only plus one 60 to miss the playoffs. [Big Cat: That's it? That's it?] That's juicy. [Hank: It's kind of low. I was hoping it was gonna be a little bit higher.]

The Lakers did make the playoffs in 2023, eventually reaching the Western Conference Finals, making this 'juicy' bet a loser.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.

The Cavaliers-Knicks series is over after Game 1

Series over, you can't lose that game if you're the Cavs. When it went into overtime, we said the Cavs have to win this. This is must win. You can't give this up. All time choke.

The series has just begun as of the episode date.
