The NBA will never play again in 2020

I don't think they're going to play again ever. I heard a nasty rumor today... I've canceled sports for 2020 you guys got mad at me for that.

The NBA did return in 2020 with the Orlando Bubble.

I'm pivoting Leroy into grading the scoops of actual insiders instead of breaking news

I'd like to pivot [Leroy] out of the breaking news game, put him out to stud, put him out to retire... and then use the account to grade the scoops of actual insiders. Leroy serves as the judge and says this scoop goes to [whoever].

The Leroy account did occasionally interact with other insiders, but the formal 'grading' system was not consistently maintained.

I don't think Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski will retire as Buccaneers, unless they win a Super Bowl

Do you think Tom Brady and Gronk will retire as Buccaneers when they go into Canton? No. I think it might [happen] if they win a Super Bowl, but there's definitely like a one side of me [that] makes it sense... it's like a one last hurrah, to Florida, nice weather... I just can't do it. I can't be like the biggest Bucs fan.

While both had iconic careers in New England, winning a Super Bowl in Tampa Bay cemented their Bucs legacy; however, Brady ultimately signed a one-day contract to retire as a Patriot.

Bill Belichick is cold-blooded and will always choose assets over personal beef

Belichick is the most likely [to make the Gronk trade]. He's like, oh I get a free asset. Most other coaches would be like no. I'm going to let my personal beef standing between me and making the right choice. Belichick is so cold blooded. He'll just be like, yes, I will get something for nothing.

The Patriots successfully turned a retired Gronkowski into a 4th-round draft pick (which became Justin Rohrwasser).

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.

Subjective analysis of fan sentiment regarding a player's style.

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.
