Jimmy Butler, I think we're witnessing the emergence of a top-20 player in the NBA. I am fully onboard... I think now Jimmy Butler is a top 20 NBA player.

Butler was named All-NBA Third Team in 2020 and led a 5-seed to the Finals, broadly validating this ranking at the time.

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 Bears could have a top-five offense even if they miss the playoffs

There's a world where the Bears don't make the playoffs, but they're a top-five offense. And our defense is so bad that I can almost—I would be very upset, but I could deal with it.

This resolves when the 2026 regular season ends and Chicago's offensive ranking and playoff status are known.

The Jaguars could win the AFC South

I think the Jaguars are not getting any respect or talked about a lot. I think they're gonna be really good this year. They could win the South. I think Trevor Lawrence is gonna keep going forward.

The Jaguars' season and Trevor Lawrence's 2026 performance will determine the prediction.
