If the Nets reach the NBA Finals before the Celtics do, they officially won the Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett trade.

The Nets have a chance to possibly get to the finals or win the NBA championship. Would they have officially won the trade with the Celtics when they traded all those guys and they got all the picks back because the Nets would be in the finals before the Celtics were?

The Celtics reached the Finals in 2022. The Nets core of Durant/Harden/Irving never made it past the second round.

The NBA's current play-in tournament structure for the 7th and 8th seeds is stupid.

I just hate that they — like, they had something good. Eight versus nine is good... When you add the 10th seed, it's stupid. And the fact that the 7th seed could potentially not make the playoffs is even dumber. I just hate the whole thing.

This is a subjective opinion on league structure.

The Wizards could beat the Brooklyn Nets in the first round of the NBA playoffs.

I think that if the Wizards beat the Celtics, if they end up matching up against the Nets, I think that the Wizards could actually beat the Nets in the first round.

The Wizards lost to the 76ers in five games in the first round. They did not face the Nets.

I would love to see a 'Subway Series' between the Knicks and the Nets in the Eastern Conference Finals.

I would love to see, ooh, a Subway Series, Knicks-Nets, Eastern Conference Finals.

This did not happen. The Nets lost in the Second Round and the Knicks lost in the First Round.

Josh Allen is playing quarterback on easy mode

We're a Josh Allen podcast. People sometimes get upset about how much we glaze him. I don't think we glaze him enough because he's playing quarterback on easy mode. It looks like that for him. The flick of the wrist, the runs, everything—it all looks like the game is slowed down for him. He's in just total control of the game.

Subjective assessment of Josh Allen's play and dominance.

Week 1 underdogs that failed to cover are a 70% ATS trend in Week 2

Teams that failed to cover the spread in Week 1 and enter Week 2 as underdogs have gone 26-11-2 against the spread since 2014. Seventy percent.

The stated 26-11-2 record and 70% rate can be checked against historical NFL results.

The Bears will beat the Vikings, but they won't score 59 again

I think the Bears are gonna win. I do not think they're gonna score 59 points. I do think they're gonna win.

The Bears-Vikings result and Chicago's point total will determine this prediction.
