Kevin Durant's legacy as a top 25 player of all time is now cemented

That 2010 to 2020... that was him cementing himself as, okay, you're a top 50 player of all time. Now, you know, you're a top 25 player of all time. Now, this decade... Sky's the limit. This is where his legacy is made and it started tonight [with 49-17-10].

LeBron James is not a great dunker because he doesn't hang on the rim

This is why LeBron James is not a great dunker, in my opinion. You have to hang on to the rim for just like a split second. You've got to make the rim move... Sometimes he acts like the rim is like a hot oven rack. He just taps it and pulls his hand away.

Giannis Antetokounmpo and Ben Simmons need to change their free throw routines to break their mental blocks

I do think that for [Ben] Simmons and Giannis [Antetokounmpo], obviously they're not great shooters regardless, but I do think it's a lot mental. And they just have to change something that they do, some routine that they do to change up the mental aspect of it. Like, if I were Giannis, the minute I got passed the ball, I'd just fucking shoot it right away.

Kevin Willard's joke about firing his staff was funny and shouldn't have been taken seriously

It was such a clear joke and people, I couldn't believe... There were people who actually thought he was being serious. I thought it was a funny joke. And then we had the people trying to cover for themselves being like, well, even if it was a joke, that's not a joke you make. Imagine if you're an assistant and you hear your boss say that.

The lack of Cinderellas in the tournament isn't due to NIL but because big teams are more efficient and physical

Todd Golden had a very good point... part of the reason why there's less upsets is teams are just getting way more efficient in scoring at the rim and becoming almost like raising their floor and becoming upset proof in the fact that you get really big dudes... and absolutely hammer the boards. And when you do that against smaller schools, you're not gonna like, how do big schools lose the small schools is like three point variance.

The Sweet 16 in Houston won't be a home game for the Cougars because Iowa and Nebraska fans travel too well

Illinois, Nebraska and Iowa have some pretty big fan bases that are all gonna wanna travel, especially Nebraska... I don't think it's gonna be like they're gonna take over the place, but I don't think it's gonna be 80% Houston at this game.
