War in the Middle East is the real reason LIV Golf is failing

War is destroying Liv Golf League. That's the real problem with war. Not the lives lost... the PIF and all the Saudi money, they are redirecting their money. The war has taking its toll.

Opinion Golf Hot

While funding priorities can change, attributing the end of LIV specifically to war redirection is a bold claim that remains unverified.

Andre Drummond might be better than Joel Embiid

Andre Drummond... might be better than [Joel] Embiid. Max, I'm not gonna lie... He still has his appendix. Best ability is availability.

Hot Take Basketball Hot

While Drummond is more durable, Embiid is a perennial MVP candidate and objectively the better player; the claim is hyperbolic.

Beating the Celtics would be the equivalent of winning an NBA Finals for the Sixers

I've also already said if we beat the Celtics, that's, that's an NBA finals. I don't care what happens the rest of it.

Opinion Basketball Medium Subjective

This is a subjective emotional assessment of what the victory would mean to him as a fan.

The Orlando Magic are a total bummer to watch

The [Orlando] Magic are the biggest bummer in the world to watch. Yeah. That team stinks. They are, they just play just basketball. That's not fun to watch. Paolo [Banchero] stinks. Paolo is so bad. He was like seven for 22. It's like my turn your turn offense.

Opinion Basketball Medium Subjective

The entertainment value of a team is subjective, though Banchero is widely considered an ascending star despite this critique.
