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.

The Knicks will probably win the series in five games or even sweep the Cavs

I still think that the, the Knicks are probably gonna win in five. They could even pull off the sweep. I guess the only real question we have for you, 'cause we already, we declared that the New York Knicks have won the series after game one. Correct.

The series is currently ongoing with the Knicks leading 2-0.

The NBA should rebrand the 'granny shot' as the 'pimp grip' to encourage players to use it

Nobody, no player in the NBA wants to shoot a free throw granny style. But if it's pimp grip, that sounds pretty fucking cool. Listen, if it goes in, it doesn't matter. Like if he and he would, he actually probably get some endorsements from it.

This is a comedic suggestion and not a verifiable fact claim.

I want the Thunder to win so we can love Victor Wembanyama longer before the inevitable hate cycle starts

I know who I want to win. I want the Thunder to win this series. And the reason why I want the thunder to win this series is because I think if the thunder win, we get to restart the clock on how much longer we get to love Weby before we hate 'em. If the Spurs win this series and then they win their first championship and Weby dominates, we're gonna eventually hate Weby.

The outcome of the series is pending, and the 'hate cycle' is a subjective sociological prediction.
