John Tortorella is the perfect mid-season replacement for underachieving hockey teams
Just whatever team has great players that Underachieves halfway through next season, smash the tort button because he is the perfect guy to get in there for a few months at a time. Fire you up and then yeah, he might grind your gears for a little bit and you'll have to get him out. But he's the guy that you want to bring in if things, if you think you've got a team that's good enough to make some noise.

View episodeJalen Brunson is the current number one player in the NBA
I rank Jalen Brunson one. That's the whole point of winning a championship, is you get to spend an entire off season and saying your guy's number one. The whole point of winning a title is that then the next four months you get to just say, my guy, my best guy is the best guy in the whole league.
I would not trade Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown for Giannis Antetokounmpo
[Big Cat: Do you want Giannis, answer the question, yes or no?] No. We won a championship with Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum. Why would we give that up?
The Knicks would not have won the NBA title without Tom Thibodeau
Listen, I know there's people who've been like, oh yeah, Tibs, like Biggest Loser. They don't win this without Tibs. I really believe that. Tibs inherited a godawful Knicks team and franchise and made them winners pretty quickly and made them competent. And then Mike Brown obviously took him over the top, but the guy before the guy I think still has some importance.

Taysom Hill will sign with the Denver Broncos before the end of the week.
When he did his goodbye to the Saints, immediately he was like, yeah, I know, I know one coach that's probably gonna give him a call. Sean Payton is absolutely in love with Taysom Hill, so yeah. I'm sure he'll be a Bronco before the week's over.
Kendrick Perkins is a 'really sharp guy' with incredibly well-reasoned NBA takes, as evidenced by ranking the Wizards top five in the East.
Kendrick Perkins. Big Perk back on TV doing his analyst thing. He's a really sharp guy. Very sharp guy... The one thing that you might say about Perk is he might have, you know, some bias where he will openly root for the Celtics. Sometimes he's like, shows him a little too much favor. So he dropped his top five list in the east... Number one in the east, 76ers... Number two in the east, the Knicks. Number three in the east, the Hawks. Number four in the east, the Heat. Number five in the east, your Washington Wizards.
