The Celtics need to blow the team up

First is stop talking about that video because Celtics lost and it doesn't matter. First they, you gotta blow it up. You gotta blow it up. How many times can you get close? I mean, as a Celtics fan, I cannot stand watching this team get so close year after year and then falling short. It's bullshit.

The Celtics did NOT blow it up; they traded Marcus Smart but kept Tatum/Brown and won the title the next year (2024).

PFT's $10,000 bet on the Heat and Panthers was an investment with a 10% ROI

PFT, I gotta start with you because you have to feel incredible relief for your bet. The 10,000 to win a thousand when you bet the heat up three Oh and the Panthers Up three Oh cashes gotta be the biggest relief of all time.

The bet did indeed cash, providing the 10% return as stated.

Derek White's Game 6 buzzer-beater felt like a series-winning moment

Game six was unbelievable. Just that win and the day after did, it did feel like a Game seven win. It felt like a series win. I was, I was basking at it. I truly was.

The Celtics ultimately lost the series, making the feeling of it being a series-winning moment incorrect in hindsight.

The 2023 Celtics' loss is as bad as being swept

I mean, the way that you won game six is almost better than winning the series. That was just such incredible finish... Game seven was game seven actually. It's true. And that was a good lesson. Yeah. Game seven is always game seven.

This is a subjective assessment of sports misery.

I've thought AJ Brown was probably going for a while now. I think it's just gonna, he's just gonna get traded after June 1st.

Brown remained on the Eagles roster past June 1st, 2026.

The NBA's 65-game award rule was specifically created because of Joel Embiid

It's a thousand percent... it's literally the Joel Embiid rule. No, this rule was made because of Joel Embiid. They made the rule because of Joel Embiid because people were upset that he won the MVP and they didn't think that he played enough games.

While the rule was spurred by 'load management' trends, Embiid played 66 games in his MVP season, meaning he would have qualified under the current rule anyway.

The Phillies will regress to a wild card team and lose in the first round

I think Phillies are regressing. They'll still make the playoffs as a wild card team. They'll sneak in and then lose in the first round.

Depends on the 2026 Phillies performance.
