I'm now thinking about [Wembanyama]... he's already beloved. ... He could be the best ever.

The PMT crew would beat any other podcast in a swimming relay

I think as a podcast though, we could beat pretty much any other podcast in a swimming relay. We showed some impressive skills [at Barstool Summer Camp].

This is a hypothetical matchup that likely can't be resolved unless they host a literal podcast swimming meet.

If you are ultra-wealthy and don't own a sports team, you're a weirdo

I'm fully supporting Jeff Bezos buying any team because it goes back to my original, my longtime take that if you're that rich and you don't own a sports team, you're a fucking weirdo.

Subjective opinion on the lifestyle of billionaires.

Jeff Bezos is still interested in buying the Celtics despite reports to the contrary

I'm gonna dispute that report and say [Jeff Bezos] is not done [being interested]. He probably wants to buy a football team... but if you're a billionaire like Bezos, it's probably easier to buy a team that's not in complete disrepair and take that over like the Celtics. You've got a winner, a proven winner already. So I'm gonna dispute that report and say he's not done.

Bezos did not buy the Celtics, and subsequent reporting reinforced his lack of interest.

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.
