Bill Belichick will sign Earl Thomas to replace Patrick Chung

Maybe this belcheck move. Maybe Belichick picks him up. They lost Patrick Chung for the year. They get real Thomas as like an impact veteran that everybody else has given up on

The Patriots never signed Earl Thomas, and he actually never played in the NFL again after being cut by the Ravens.

The Hawks and Kings missed out on a generational superstar in Luka Doncic and they will regret it for the next 20 years.

I'm just going to say it to the Hawks who traded [Luka Doncic] on draft night to the Kings that took Marvin Bagley—bad drafts happen. They'll worry about it. You miss on a generational superstar that is going to be incredible in the NBA for the next 20 years. Shit happens, man.

Luka Doncic quickly became a perennial All-NBA First Team selection and one of the league's faces, while the Kings' pick Marvin Bagley struggled.

Paul George is a pathetic second banana who stinks in the playoffs and doesn't deserve to be called a superstar.

Playoff P, Playoff PP—holy shit, that guy stinks. I don't understand how you can be considered a superstar. You would say that Playoff P is at the top of the list for second bananas, and then the playoffs come around and it's like, dude, have you played basketball before?

George's playoff reputation remains a point of intense debate, but his 2020 performance was statistically poor.

Giannis Antetokounmpo must make the NBA Finals this year or the narrative will turn against him

I got to take about giannis... he's got to go to the finals this year. That's all I'm going to say because when he dunks on the magic up 20 and like pounds his chest... if he gets stopped in the Eastern Conference Final again, like you can't do that where you just in the first round your piece and then in the second and third round you get shut down.

The Bucks lost in the second round to the Miami Heat in 2020, leading to exactly the narrative Big Cat predicted, until they won the title in 2021.

Nate Oats needs to teach his players to never let the police look through their phones

Let the Aden Holloway situation be a reminder to everybody that you don't have to let the police look through your phone. I actually point the finger at Nate Oats for this, because Nate Oats, you gotta do a better job of explaining the first through fifth amendments to your players. Given the history that you've had... day one you should have a, get the guys from Morgan & Morgan to come in and be like, 'Do not talk to the police if you're in trouble. Shut the fuck up.'

This is a satirical advice piece and commentary on Nate Oats' coaching responsibilities.

Mark Pope is on the hot seat at Kentucky after this tournament performance

Mark Pope on the hot seat. I think he is. I mean, I think they're gonna bring him back. I think he's safe for this year, but I think he's going into next year. Seat is warm.

Pending — Mark Pope's job status at Kentucky after the 2025-26 season is not yet resolved.

Every major college coaching opening should start by calling Brad Stevens and making him say no

You gotta make him say no. You gotta call Brad Stevens and make him say no. I will personally never stop saying that. He probably wakes up every morning and says no. Voicemail just says, 'Thank you so much for the consideration, but it's gonna be a no.' It would be shocking if he ever took another college job.
