Game 7 playoff hockey is the cruelest thing in all of sports.

Game seven playoff hockey, there's nothing like it in sports. Game seven playoff hockey overtime. It is the cruelest thing in all sports... you sit there and be like, how is it over? Like, keep this game going. This is not fair.

This is a subjective emotional assessment of sports moments.

The 2022-23 Boston Bruins are the biggest chokers in the history of the NHL

How do you feel about your Boston Bruins being the biggest chokers in the history of the NHL? After being the President's Cup trophy winner, they had the most wins in NHL history this year... You lost in the first round to Jake [Marsh]'s Florida Panthers.

The Bruins set records for wins and points and lost in the first round; they are widely cited as the biggest choke in NHL history.

The Bruins' historic season was an abject failure

I don't know how he [Giannis] could say that that was a complete abject failure. It just hurt a lot... most points of all time, most wins of all time... it's a complete failure.

In the context of sports high-stakes, losing as a record-breaking favorite in round 1 is objectively a failure.

The Bruins' collapse sets a bad tone for the Celtics' playoff run and puts unnecessary pressure on the city.

This is bad for the Celtics. This is like, as a city as a whole. You're both, you know, top seeds... the fact that the Bruins lost it almost kind of like sets the tone of like, anything can happen and that's not where you wanna be.

The Celtics eventually lost in the Eastern Conference Finals to the Heat, so the 'bad tone' theory has some retrospective weight.

Victor Wembanyama is the best watch in the NBA right now

[Wembanyama] is the best watch in the NBA right now. It's not even close... just his entire performance leaving it like, he was so gassed that three that looked like we were talking about it, it looked like it was almost like there was a whistle beforehand because it was like in slow motion. It was just incredible.
