Big Ten football will likely never happen in 2020 despite the constant schedule delays

I'm just going to get my hopes up again. I don't know whatever... knowing it probably won't, but my dog brain takes over. I'm like, yeah. No October we're good.

The Big Ten did eventually return and play a shortened 2020 season starting in October.

The Nuggets are going to get smoked by the Clippers in the next round

I think that the Nuggets are gonna get smoked next round. Yeah, I don't care how many inches they have on their team. Clippers are minus about my million units. Clippers Game 1.

The Nuggets famously came back from 3-1 to beat the Clippers in 7 games.

James Harden will never get in shape

Will James Harden ever get in shape? No. I mean he's late to the bubble. I want to saying because he was out of shape... he does that like he'll do it in a game. He'll drive really hard to the hoop. And then the next like three plays [be like] I'm not running up and down.

This is a subjective long-term opinion on a player's conditioning and playstyle.

Chris Paul's annoying personality makes people forget that he is an elite basketball player and could be a top US soccer player

Chris Paul's personality makes you forget how good at basketball he is because he's the worst anytime... but he's awesome. I still think he would be Top three or top four US men's soccer player. Yes, easily.

The USMNT portion is a hypothetical hot take; his NBA skill is verified but subjective.

Kevin Willard's joke about firing his staff was funny and shouldn't have been taken seriously

It was such a clear joke and people, I couldn't believe... There were people who actually thought he was being serious. I thought it was a funny joke. And then we had the people trying to cover for themselves being like, well, even if it was a joke, that's not a joke you make. Imagine if you're an assistant and you hear your boss say that.

Whether a joke is funny or appropriate is subjective.

The lack of Cinderellas in the tournament isn't due to NIL but because big teams are more efficient and physical

Todd Golden had a very good point... part of the reason why there's less upsets is teams are just getting way more efficient in scoring at the rim and becoming almost like raising their floor and becoming upset proof in the fact that you get really big dudes... and absolutely hammer the boards. And when you do that against smaller schools, you're not gonna like, how do big schools lose the small schools is like three point variance.

This is an analytical opinion on sports trends that can't be definitively proven right or wrong.

The Sweet 16 in Houston won't be a home game for the Cougars because Iowa and Nebraska fans travel too well

Illinois, Nebraska and Iowa have some pretty big fan bases that are all gonna wanna travel, especially Nebraska... I don't think it's gonna be like they're gonna take over the place, but I don't think it's gonna be 80% Houston at this game.

The attendance split of the Sweet 16 regional in Houston will determine this.
