I would much rather lose a game playing like absolute dogshit than lose while playing well

Spin zone is I would much rather lose a game where you play like absolute dog [and] play worse than lose a game where you're playing really well and the other team just beat you. Like the Celtics played so bad. Jaylen Brown was so bad. Jason Tatum didn't play well, no one was playing well.

This is a subjective philosophy on losing, though it reflects the common 'burn the tape' sports mentality.

The Bucks vs. Celtics series is definitely going seven games

I already think this series is going seven, so I wouldn't freak out. ... I think the series is going to go the distance.

The series did go seven games, with the Celtics eventually winning Game 7.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is indisputably the best player in the NBA

I wonder, I think that we've all decided that Giannis [Antetokounmpo] is the best player in the NBA right now. Like, I don't know if that's a debate anymore. I think that's just because Giannis is too nice. If he was meaner, I don't think it would be a debate.

Subjective, though Giannis remained a perennial top-3 player for years following this.

Jason Tatum will take over multiple games in the Bucks series and prove he has fully arrived

I also think this is going to be a great test of has Jason Tatum fully arrived because he will take over some of these games and then we'll be like, oh yeah, he's really fucking good. That's that's my prediction.

Tatum had a massive 46-point performance in Game 6 to force a Game 7, widely considered his 'arrival' moment.

The DMV is the worst line to wait in

DMV. Great pick. That's gotta be one one. Gotta be because it goes out of order too. Yeah. That bullshit. It is. Pick number sucks.

Subjective opinion on waiting in line.
