Kyrie Irving is a method actor who has become stuck as the character Uncle Drew
I think he's a method actor. I think when he got into character as Uncle Drew, as like a baby boomer, now he hates all millennials around him. He's a character actor right now and he's still stuck.

View episodeLeBron James is tanking the Lakers' season to lure Kevin Durant to Los Angeles
The one thing I'm keeping an eye on here, I think LeBron might be tanking this season on purpose because KD is going to want to do the opposite thing that he did last time he was a free agent. He wants to go to perhaps the worst team in the league. Right now that looks like the Los Angeles Lakers because they just lost to the worst team in the league two nights ago. So I think that this is LeBron James setting up a long, long proposition here.
The Lakers are officially dead and will not make the playoffs

The thing with the Celtics and the thing with the Eastern Conference is that, yes, the Celtics are kind of a dumpster fire right now... but I could still see a situation where the Celtics could beat the Sixers, they could beat the Bucks, they could beat the Raptors. And all it takes is you need to win one series, and then it's like everything going forward.

With the way that Sam Leavitt played, you have to imagine they are definitely a team that can win the national championship.
Traditions should stop when a team is getting blown out
I'm at the point now where I think the Badgers have to stop Jump Around until we start winning games. Because when you jump around and you're down 20, it's not fun. That's not a fun thing to do. You just need to have time and place with some of these things.
Jameis Winston should be the first call for a quarterback replacement
Jameis right now should be the first call that anybody makes if they have a starter, a non-Tua starter, that they need. Actually, think about that, Big Cat—Jameis on the Falcons. That would be cool.
