Following who NBA players follow on Twitter is the best way to predict trades

It's a big time of year to see which players that different NBA teams are following on Twitter. That's how you tell. [Big Cat]: Because Isaiah Thomas also followed Melo, right, on Twitter. So that's a big thing as well.

While often a meme, social media follows do occasionally precede real player movement in the NBA.

Larry II committed suicide because he couldn't face an NFL offseason without football

Possible suicide because Larry was a football guy. He loved gambling. He was really good at it. He liked the games. He got a little taste of what the offseason looked like... the week without football really crushed him, and he couldn't bear looking ahead to the next six months without any games.

The goldfish died of natural causes/poor care, not suicide.

Buddy Hield should retire in a year or two because he is an old rookie

Buddy Hield is also, like, he's the Chris Weinke type, where everyone's like, oh, Buddy Hield's a nice young piece, and it's like, well, actually, he was a four-year starter, and he's like 25 years old. Oh, okay, well, Buddy Hield should retire in a year or two.

Buddy Hield had a long, productive career after this, playing many seasons in the NBA beyond 'a year or two.'

The Warriors vs. Pelicans first-round series will be lame because Draymond Green will just punch Boogie Cousins in the dick

So what you're going end up seeing here is the Warriors taking on the Pelicans in the first round... I'm here to tell you that it's not [going to be awesome]. It's going to be lame. Draymond Green, all he does is punch people in the dick, and getting punched in the dick is real weakness in [Boogie Cousins'] game.

The Pelicans finished 10th in the West and missed the playoffs entirely in 2017.

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.
