The Mavericks were stupid to wear their black jerseys in Game 1

I still think that the Mavs were stupid to wear these jerseys in game one. I don't know if they did that because Luca looked very slim to them. I was thinking blue. These jerseys feel like the jerseys you wear for Star Wars night in like early February.

This is a subjective aesthetic opinion about team uniforms.

When you are giving a 'have fun' speech at halftime of a finals game, you have already lost

It's a shame that Jason Kidd couldn't give another halftime speech where he said, everyone remember to have fun out there. When you're given the half fun speech, you lost. I don't think that you can come back with a a half fun speech.

The Mavericks lost Game 1 and eventually the series, making this a prescient critique of the team's energy and coaching approach.

The Celtics will beat the Mavericks in six games

Yeah, we're thinking Celtics and Six. The, the Mavs aren't gonna go away. They're gonna, they're gonna give us their best shot, but, but it's, it might be Celtics and five.

The Celtics won the NBA Finals in 5 games, not 6.

LeBron James strategically leaked the Dan Hurley news to overshadow Game 1 of the NBA Finals

The tradition of LeBron or his team looking to overshadow game one of the NBA finals continues... he really is the best at it... there's no doubt that he planned this whole Dan Hurley thing for having it all day on game one.

While the timing is suspicious, the intent is subjective and impossible to definitively prove, though Hurley did eventually turn down the job.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.

The Cavaliers-Knicks series is over after Game 1

Series over, you can't lose that game if you're the Cavs. When it went into overtime, we said the Cavs have to win this. This is must win. You can't give this up. All time choke.

The series has just begun as of the episode date.
