Tuukka Rask is good but bad in big moments, which makes him not good

The Tuukka Rask thing to me... if he was good, you wouldn't have to tell people he's good. He's good but bad in big moments. So it's like, is that really good? So that's kind of bad.

Rask retired with elite stats but remains a divisive figure among Bruins fans regarding his postseason performance.

Brad Stevens is the best coach in the NBA

I mean, I think [Brad Stevens] is the best coach in the game. He's a mad scientist.

While Stevens was highly regarded, he never won an NBA title as coach and later moved to the front office. Most analysts would eventually rank Spoelstra or Kerr higher during this era.

Ben Simmons is playing like a rookie because he can't shoot

It's a real problem that [Ben Simmons] can't shoot. He's playing like a rookie. So this actually... I've changed my mind now. He is a rookie based on how he's been playing.

Simmons' inability to shoot did indeed remain the defining flaw of his career.

Brad Stevens is a better coach with less talent than Gregg Popovich has ever been

I saw some people saying that Brad Stevens is doing more with less than Popovich ever has. [Big Cat:] I'd agree... Popovich had Tim Duncan, who's like a top 10 player of all time... People are pretending that [the Celtics] are not talented because they don't have their number one guy, but they still have a ton of talent.

History has favored Popovich significantly. Stevens eventually left coaching for a front-office role without a title, while Popovich is the all-time wins leader.

Aaron Rai is a boring PGA Championship winner

Aaron Rai, nice guy, great story. Okay. Boring as hell, boring winner... Nothing happened Sunday... Great crowd, great venue, great fans, great leaderboard going into Sunday. Disappointing finish.

Entertainment value is subjective.
