Juwan Howard has a legitimate anger problem

This is he's a repeat offender. He is. So he had that. He also claimed last year that Mark Turgeon... was coming at him and he had to defend himself... He's gotten some weird technical fouls where he's like yelled at people.

Juwan Howard was suspended for the remainder of the regular season following this incident and eventually fired in 2024 after several more altercations and poor performance.

The Juwan Howard incident was great for college basketball

I'm smashing the good for college basketball button. Of course it is awesome for college basketball... Rivalries in college sports where it's always on the cusp of turning violent. That's just good for the sport and nothing bad happened.

The clip dominated sports media for weeks, confirming it was a major engagement driver, though its 'goodness' for the sport's integrity is subjective.

LeBron James ruined the dunk contest by never participating in it

LeBron ruined the dunk contest by never doing it. Correct though. Setting the precedent. [He's the] best players to never do it. He ruined it by saying he was going to do it too. You remember that? Yeah. And then just never did it.

The dunk contest has notoriously lacked star power for years, with stars often citing injury risk or lack of interest, following LeBron's lead.

The NBA should put a $2 million prize on the dunk contest to attract star players

I think what they should do, they should just put a shit load of money in the pot for the winner of the dunk contest. It's very simple. Just get a big sponsor. Get everybody to pitch in. You should be like $2 million for the winner.

While the NBA hasn't implemented a $2M prize specifically for the dunk contest, they did implement prize money for the In-Season Tournament (NBA Cup) to increase competitive intensity.

Spain is entering a period of absolute soccer dominance and will win the next Euro.

They won the Euro two years ago. They won the World Cup. They're probably gonna win the Euro in two years. They're just different generation dominating soccer.

Euro 2028 has not happened yet.

Goals scored in the World Cup third-place game should not count toward the Golden Boot.

I also had one bone to pick. The third place game, which is hilarious that they still do this... The fact that those goals count for the Golden Boot is such bullshit. That's stupid. That should not count. Like that's not a real game.

This is a subjective opinion about tournament rules.

LeBron James will announce his free agency decision tonight.

I'm fully expecting him to announce at 9:00 PM tonight. Yep. Like shit like that where it's like, I went to a movie on Thursday night. I was like, oh, LeBron's gonna fucking announce during the movie. He's, he's now fucking us... I think that's what's gonna happen. I think he's gonna decide tonight.

Depends on exactly when LeBron actually announced his decision following this episode.
