I will eat PFT Commenter's ass if Christian Yelich wins the Home Run Derby

We're screwed because Christian Yelich is in the Home Run Derby. We said we'd eat each other's asses if he wins the Home Run Derby.

Christian Yelich did not win the 2019 Home Run Derby; Pete Alonso won the event.

The Brooklyn Nets will be the most combustible team in the East because Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving won't get along

This team [the Nets] is going to be one of the best teams in the East and also one of the most combustible teams in the East because I do not think these guys will get along.

The Nets tenure for KD and Kyrie was defined by off-court drama, vaccine mandates, and trade requests. Both superstars were traded away within four years without making it past the second round.

Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant are the two NBA personalities least likely to get along long-term

Having Kyrie and KD together, those are the two personalities I think are least likely to get along. It's going to be great.

While they did 'get along' personally, their tenure together was a professional disaster that ended in a total blow-up of the roster.

Every team in the NBA would have offered Kevin Durant a max contract except for the Knicks

If every team in the NBA had the ability to offer a max contract to Kevin Durant, every single team would give him a max contract. And the Knicks. They're the last team.

While hyperbolically stated, most insiders agreed that the vast majority of the league would have maxed Durant despite the injury, making the Knicks' stance unique/laughable.

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.

Subjective analysis of fan sentiment regarding a player's style.

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.
