Donante DiVincenzo and Matthew Dellavedova are the grittiest backcourt in history

I'm also psyched about the grittiest backcourt, perhaps, in NBA history with Dante DiVincenzo and Matthew Dellavedova. Ooh. Try driving to the hole and not drawing a charge with those two on the court... As owner of the New Zealand Breakers, I am entertaining trade discussions with the Bucks if they'd like to trade Dellavedova.

Subjective claim about 'grittiness'.

Adrian Wojnarowski is bigger than the NBA and ESPN can't touch him

It's like ESPN is not going to do shit to him. No. Because he's Woj. He's bigger than the league. Technically, he didn't tip any picks. No, he just said that they're unlikely to pass on them.

Woj continued to be the premier NBA insider at ESPN for years after this incident, confirming his status.

Philip Rivers is a better quarterback than Eli Manning

Philip Rivers, better quarterback than Eli Manning. Much better. Better career. More viral. I know the two Super Bowls... statisticaly, better quarterback.

This is a perennial sports debate that cannot be definitively solved, though Rivers has better regular season stats and Eli has the championships.

Trae Young looks like he sucks

Granted, I'm not a great basketball mind. That might surprise you at home. No, you're a brilliant basketball mind. But Trae Young looks like he sucks to me.

Trae Young became an All-Star and led his team to an Eastern Conference Final, making this take largely incorrect.

The Ravens' fourth-quarter problems are moving earlier

Historically, the fourth-quarter Ravens have not been a great team. That fourth-quarter Ravens has started to creep its way into the third-quarter Ravens. And I think eventually it's going to keep creeping earlier and earlier in the game. I don't think it's going to get better because the defense does not look good.

This is a season-long assessment that can only be judged against Baltimore's eventual 2026 performance.

Baker Mayfield has a real revenge game against Cleveland

This is like a big Baker revenge spot too. This is not a made-up Baker—I have a perceived slight against me because some team didn't trade for me when I was on the market. This is Baker Mayfield against Stefanski, and they haven't talked since he left Cleveland.

Whether the personal history materially affects the game is subjective, though the stated public grievance is part of the episode's context.

The NFL should reduce the season to 16 games

I'm going to say it. I think that 17 games is too much. I like the scarcity. I like if you brought it back to 16, because the NFL's also been playing this game for a long time where they have to find safer-looking ways to do a dangerous activity.

The preferred NFL schedule is a policy judgment, though the player-safety rationale is grounded in the discussion's cited study.
