David Stern saved the NBA by nixing the Chris Paul to the Lakers trade because Paul is a loser

Go back to when the Chris Paul to the Lakers trade didn't happen because David Stern nixed it. I think David Stern accurately knew like, 'Hey, the league's better when the Lakers were winning championships, I'm not going to let this trade go through just because I know that [the Lakers] will never win a ring when Chris Paul's on the team.' I think it wasn't a matter of making a super team that made him step in... I think he actually saved the NBA.

Subjective historical analysis of intent, though Paul indeed has never won a ring.

The Suns are officially dead after one of the most embarrassing Game 7 performances ever

Suns are cooked, absolutely cooked. We're calling it. This game. Suns are cooked, absolutely cooked... This is an embarrassing performance game seven at home... The Suns are playing like they have Chris Paul and four James Hardens in a game seven. That's how they're playing.

The Suns lost by 33 points, confirming the 'cooked' status.

Chris Paul is a fraud and the best NBA player of all time that has sucked

I'm going to call it right now. I'm going to use a hard D-bomb. What's that? Hank? A fraud. ... Chris Paul is literally the best NBA player of all time that has sucked. ... Don't get too committed to one player who's 37 years old and chokes in the playoffs.

Subjective label of 'fraud', though Paul's playoff failures are statistically significant.

The Celtics will beat the Heat in five or six games

I do think the Celtics are a better team. Like I think this should be a five or six game series. And I just, you know, Heat culture all that shit, but that was, you know, even the bubble, like the Celtics team is a much different team than they were in the bubble. They're way better.

The Celtics did beat the Heat to advance to the Finals, but it took the full seven games, not five or six.

Duke would have won the National Championship by 50 points if they had reached the final.

I think if Duke plays in the championship game, they win by 50. Easily. That was a wasted opportunity.

This is a hyperbolic counterfactual that cannot be proven, making it subjective.

Michigan is already the favorite to win the National Championship again next season.

Michigan I think is right now the favorites to win next season. Tough to win back to back, but he has to hit the portal. He has to be active... which he already is.

This is a prediction for the next college basketball season.

College basketball is now 'pay to win' and that's unsustainable

It's a pay to win tournament. Like basketball is ruined. Unsustainable. Yeah, that's the new word that I keep hearing.

Subjective opinion about the direction of college sports governance.
