The Knicks are going to sweep the Finals and become one of the greatest teams of all time.

I mean they're gonna, they're gonna sweep this series and probably have a case to be one of the greatest teams of all time. It's, it's tough. I did, I put an absolute nuke on the Knicks 'cause I just knew that, you know, the Spurs were gassed and they didn't have what it takes.

Hank predicted the Knicks would sweep the 2026 NBA Finals. While the Knicks did win the championship, they defeated the San Antonio Spurs 4-1, not in a sweep.

The New York Knicks playing at Madison Square Garden for the NBA Finals will be an absolute movie.

I am hyped for what the New York Knicks in the NBA finals are gonna look like at MSG. I think it's gonna be absolutely nuts. The crowd is gonna be nuts.

The atmosphere at MSG during a championship run is objectively high-energy, though 'insane' is subjective.

Victor Wembanyama choked at the end of Game 2 of the NBA Finals.

So he choked. That was a big time choke at the end. Like he, you gotta look before you throw that pass. It was a ill-advised pass to make. And then out of frustration, he just, he commits a bad foul. I, I think [Wembanyama] is to blame, obviously for everything that happened at the end of this game.

Wembanyama did literally have a turnover and a foul at the end of the game, though 'choke' is a subjective descriptor.

Mitch Johnson should have called a timeout for the Spurs before Victor Wembanyama's late-game turnover.

I thought Mitch Johnson not calling a time out there was crazy. They have one time out left, there's seven seconds left... Call time out, call up your best play. If Brunson on the floor attack Brunson... you get a shot to potentially win without the risk of losing and regulation, which is what ended up happening.

This is a tactical opinion on coaching strategy.

Tom Brady helping Mike Macdonald prepare for the Patriots would be a huge slap in the face to the New England region.

That would be egregious if that was true. I don't believe it is true. But if it were, that would be unforgivable. Not unforgivable. That would be a, a blemish, a big blemish. Big time. It'd be a slap in the face of the whole region.

Subjective opinion on how a hypothetical rumor would be perceived.

Jayson Tatum is playing cute by claiming he found out about the Jaylen Brown trade on social media.

I'm sure he knew that he was on the trading block and he didn't know specifically when he got traded and he found out just like everyone else... all Brad Stevens, Jaylen Brown, they talked about how, you know, he was gonna be on the trading block and they were gonna try and move him. So I'm sure Jayson Tatum was also aware of that. But in terms of, he's probably playing a little, a little cutesy there where like no one specifically told him, 'Hey, this is the trade.' He found out like everyone else. But I'm sure he was not surprised and fully aware what the plan was.

Subjective interpretation of Tatum's PR framing.

The Celtics have another major move coming following the Jaylen Brown trade

There's something going on here. I I said it to Max on the boat yesterday. I was like, Jalen Brown was getting traded. I could, I could just feel it. I could feel it coming... I feel like the Paul George thing is, there's the, like, they might be doing another trade. There's another move coming.

The trade just happened in the fictional 2026 timeline provided; further moves are pending.
