The [Miami Heat] are a really fucking good team. And Spo is the best. Yeah. He is the best coach.

The Heat's defensive strategy of letting Nikola Jokic score while shutting down his passing works

[The Heat's] strategy was we're gonna let Jokic score as many points as he wants to... Just be a scorer... because two points is not as much as three points. And so their zone defense was kind of predicated on allowing him to be a scorer, not a passer.

The Heat won Game 2 with Jokic scoring 41 points but only having 4 assists, though they eventually lost the series in 5 games.

The Miami Heat will win the NBA Championship because they are the only remaining team without a Taylor Swift tour stop

Every NBA team that made it to the semi-finals this year has had a Taylor Swift Eras tour stop through their city, and they've all been eliminated. The Denver Nuggets had Taylor Swift perform there. The Miami Heat is the only team that has not had Taylor Swift perform in their city. So if you're a swifty... Miami is going to win these championship.

The Nuggets won the championship despite the Taylor Swift tour stop.

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 series has just begun as of the episode date.
