Giannis Antetokounmpo might be a 'coach killer'

Is Giannis [Antetokounmpo] the coach killer? Did he make Jason Kidd bad? Is he making [Joe] Prunty... look like an asshole?

Giannis eventually won a title with Mike Budenholzer and has generally been considered a coach-friendly superstar, though coaches have been fired around him.

Brad Stevens is the best coach in the NBA

Brad Stevens is the best coach in the NBA. He is a wagon. I expect anything from a Brad Stevens coached team. They just play so much smarter than everyone else.

Subjective opinion on coaching quality, though Stevens never won a title before moving to the front office.

The Vegas Golden Knights and Nashville Predators are the two best teams in the Western Conference

They look good enough in their previous games that we can say the Knights and the Predators are probably the two best teams in the West.

The Golden Knights made it to the Stanley Cup Finals from the West. The Predators lost in the second round, but they were the top two seeds in the West entering the playoffs.

The Wizards need to blow up their current core

They need to blow up the Wizards... Eventually the same core, and they all kind of hate each other. You can tell they all hate each other, which is so funny.

The Wizards did eventually trade John Wall in 2020 and Bradley Beal in 2023, effectively blowing up the core after several more years of mediocrity.

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.
