The NBA holding their awards show in late June is a stupid move
I don't want a fucking award show on a random Monday in June. Mentally, we do as fans [care about the postseason results]. I'm thinking, of course James Harden didn't win it because the Rockets flamed out again. It's so stupid that they do it this way. They should just do it right before the playoffs.

View episodeThe Houston Rockets are in hilarious denial about the James Harden and Chris Paul dysfunction
The Rockets stuff is so funny to me... Chris Paul also had a quote that was essentially the 'I'm not owned' [tweet]. He said, 'I never asked for a trade. I never demanded a trade. I'll be in Houston. I'm happy about that.' You guys thinking that me, Chris Paul, notorious tough person to play with, is not vibing with James Harden, also notorious tough person to play with—that's funny to me, guys. I'm laughing here. This is so funny.
Doc Rivers appeared to be a better coach when Austin Rivers was on his team because coaching a bad player makes you look like a genius
Doc Rivers appeared to be a better coach when he had his son on the team because his son was such a shithead that if you could squeeze a little bit of blood out of Austin Rivers, then you looked like a fucking genius. [Big Cat: You should not have gotten rid of one of your worst players.]

Kemba Walker is like the perfect case of he's good, but he's not Supermax good. I think they also—they gave it such a cool term, Supermax, that it's tough to turn down. [The Hornets] should have done the Boogie Cousins and traded him because if you trade someone, they can't get the Supermax.

View profileOhio State moved senior night because it is scared of Michigan
If you're saying, 'Hey, we can't do it for the Michigan game because it's something that's just totally different and separate unto itself,' do it the last home game before that, which would be Northwestern. But that senior night though should be—you'd basically just be saying, 'I'm scared of doing it against Michigan.'
Michigan is closer to 7-5 than a playoff team
If Bryce Underwood doesn't take a massive step forward, this is closer to a seven-five team than a playoff team.
Wisconsin has to win eight games
He's gotta win eight. I think he would tell you he's gotta win eight. Because if you win seven, that means you probably lost to Penn State, Iowa, USC and UCLA or Minnesota, and it's like some of those are not okay.
