The Mavericks will win because Kyrie Irving and Luka Dončić are better closers than the Celtics' stars

I think that this is gonna be a very close series. It's going to come down to very tight games at the end. And one team has two guys that have proven to be excellent closers against very good teams in this playoffs. And the Celtics have looked a little Iffy.

The Celtics won comfortably in 5 games, and their stars performed well.

Karl-Anthony Towns is the hardest player in the NBA to fully get behind and root for.

If you're a Timberwolves fan, I, God bless you because you are, you have to root for Karl-Anthony Towns. He must be so infuriating to root for. I'm just saying he, he is probably the hardest player to fully delude yourself into getting behind in the [NBA].

Whether a player is 'hard to root for' is entirely subjective.

The Timberwolves lost Game 5 the moment they decided to wear their 'terrible' alternate jerseys.

The Timberwolves... you lost the game the minute you went with those jerseys. It's terrible. Jerseys terrible. Max, I saw your face... those are not back against the wall jerseys. No, those are game two jerseys. Preferably a game two of the season in October.

The impact of jersey choice on game outcome is a matter of humor and superstition.

Karl-Anthony Towns cannot claim to be the best big man shooter of all time because he lacks post moves.

Karl-Anthony Towns is a self-proclaimed best big man shooter of all time. I feel like you have to have post moves, like really good post moves to be able to say that, to claim that. Otherwise, you're just a tall shooter. There's a difference between being tall and being a big man.

This is a subjective definition of what constitutes a 'big man' in basketball.

AJ Brown's time with the Philadelphia Eagles is officially over

Well, AJ Brown is no longer a member of the Eagles. That's, he is not gonna be... There's so many, there's so many suitors out there.

AJ Brown signed a massive contract extension with the Eagles and stayed with the team.

Daryl Morey is a good talent evaluator but a bad team builder

Daryl Morey has done a lot of good things for the future of the 76ers... He is a very good drafter... He's very good at evaluating talent. He's not very good at putting a team together, which is probably pretty important for a GM.

This is a subjective assessment of a GM's career tenure.

The Bucks would be idiotic not to trade Giannis Antetokounmpo now

You gotta turn the page and this is the best way to do it. 'Cause you can get real, you get real [picks] and like jumpstart your next chapter. You gotta trade him. You have to, it would be idiotic not to trade him at this point.

Subjective team-building philosophy.
