Kemba Walker is a better player than Kyrie Irving

Hank, the Celtics definitely won by getting Kemba... [Hank:] Yes. [Big Cat:] OK. [PFT:] No, I agree with Hank on this take. I think that he's a better fit up there.

Kyrie Irving is widely considered a superior talent and has had a much better career post-2019 than Kemba Walker, whose career was derailed by knee injuries.

The Brooklyn Nets will be the most combustible team in the East because Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving won't get along

This team [the Nets] is going to be one of the best teams in the East and also one of the most combustible teams in the East because I do not think these guys will get along.

The Nets tenure for KD and Kyrie was defined by off-court drama, vaccine mandates, and trade requests. Both superstars were traded away within four years without making it past the second round.

Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant are the two NBA personalities least likely to get along long-term

Having Kyrie and KD together, those are the two personalities I think are least likely to get along. It's going to be great.

While they did 'get along' personally, their tenure together was a professional disaster that ended in a total blow-up of the roster.

Every team in the NBA would have offered Kevin Durant a max contract except for the Knicks

If every team in the NBA had the ability to offer a max contract to Kevin Durant, every single team would give him a max contract. And the Knicks. They're the last team.

While hyperbolically stated, most insiders agreed that the vast majority of the league would have maxed Durant despite the injury, making the Knicks' stance unique/laughable.
