If the Capitals win this Stanley Cup and the next, they are officially a dynasty

I did say when they were up three, nothing. I was like, if we win this Stanley cup and the next Stanley cup, does that count as a dynasty taking into account the 2018 Stanley cup that they have?

The Capitals lost in the first round in 2022, so the condition was never met.

The James Harden for Ben Simmons trade was a lose-lose for both teams

I think you go back to the trade and neither team won. It was the classic lose-lose trade, like both teams in, in a weird way, got a little bit worse from this trade.

Both teams struggled significantly post-trade; Simmons barely played for Brooklyn and Harden eventually forced his way out of Philly after more playoff disappointment.

I am the last person in the world who still believes in Ben Simmons

I'm, I'm, I'm the one sucker alive that still believes in Ben Simmons. So I'm like nets could still get some out of them. Crazy, stupid irrational. So I'm not giving up on Ben Simmons. I'm the last person in the world because I'm like six, 10 point cards don't grow on trees.

Ben Simmons' career continued to decline due to injuries and mental hurdles, making the belief that he could still be an elite piece incorrect.

Doc Rivers has had zero impact on the 76ers since arriving

Dr. Rivers got there. He's been there for two years... they've literally just gone. It was like, they, they they've been just doing the same thing year after year after year, Dr. Rivers has had no impact on it. They were on the exact same trajectory and he's like, we were a mess when I got here, but I fixed it all to get us right back to where we were.

The Sixers continued to struggle with second-round exits and eventually fired Doc Rivers in 2023, largely confirming the stagnation narrative.

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.
