The 76ers' Game 7 loss was on James Harden and Joel Embiid, not Doc Rivers

Doc Rivers fired... He probably should have been fired. But it also is like one of those rare cases where Doc Rivers loves to blow it in big moments, but that loss to me was squarely on James Harden and Joel Embiid.

This is a subjective assessment of a game's outcome, though both Embiid and Harden struggled significantly in that Game 7.

The Nuggets will win the series against the Lakers in six games

I still think Nuggets and six, if [Jokic] can dominate like he dominated tonight and I actually don't see a reason why he wouldn't be able to as insane as his game was tonight.

The Nuggets swept the Lakers 4-0 in the Western Conference Finals.

The Lakers will win Game 2 because they found a way to disrupt the Nuggets in the fourth quarter

I think the Lakers might win game two because it did feel also like it in the fourth quarter. It felt like they figured a little something out. Like Anthony Davis was playing off Gordon, was disrupting everything. I just think it is gonna be a long series.

The Nuggets won Game 2 (108-103) and went on to sweep the Lakers 4-0.

If you want a young player to not have his career go sideways with bad coaching and a dysfunctional franchise, there's no better place than San Antonio for [Wembanyama] to land.

Wembanyama had a historic rookie season under Popovich, winning Rookie of the Year and validating the 'perfect fit' narrative.

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.

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.
