Michael Penix Jr. probably had an AARP card in his backpack during his scouting meetings.

An a a RP card. That's what Michael Penix had without a [doubt].

Likely incorrect as he was only 23-24 at the time, though comedic hyperbole.

Tyrese Maxey saved his legacy and had a double legacy game in Game 5 against the Knicks.

Tyrese Maxey basically saved. Did Tyrese Maxey save his legacy while also a legacy game for [Embiid]? It was a double legacy game.

This is subjective praise for a performance, but Maxey did score 7 points in the final 25 seconds of regulation to force OT, which is objectively a 'legacy' type moment.

The Knicks/76ers Game 5 defense by Nicolas Batum on Jalen Brunson was game-defining.

Shout out to your guy [Batum] with incredible, incredible defense. Both at the end of regulation and the end of OT being able to stay with Jalen Brunson as he drive to the, to the hoop. And he had two huge, I think the first one was a block... those were, those were game defining plays.

Most analysts agreed Batum's block and contest on Brunson were the pivotal defensive plays of the win.

The Bucks are alive in their series against the Pacers and could win if they force a Game 7.

The bucks are alive. For sure. And what happened in the last game was they just had everybody get hurt or ejected from the game... I don't think that they're like, they probably won't be favored to win this series, even with Giannis coming back. But if they can get it to a game seven, then yes [they can win].

The Bucks lost the series in Game 6, so they never reached Game 7.

The Celtics are statistically a better team without Jaylen Brown

Jalen Brown has the second worst plus minus of any five time All Star over the past 10 years... Also the Celtics win more games without Jalen Brown than when he is playing... Last year with, with Jalen Brown, they won 66% of their games without, they won 80%... Their entire career with Jalen Brown. They are 263 and 1 31. That's 67% without Brown. There're 60 and 26, 70%.

The stats provided are fictional/hypothetical within the 2026 setting, but presented as fact to support a 'Ewing Theory' style take.

The Celtics are no longer eligible to be the NBA's team of the 2020s without Jaylen Brown

If the Celtics rebuild and they get back to like the NBA finals, let's say in like 2029, let's say they win another chip in 2029, that's a different team. Like the core is completely different without Jalen Brown. I don't know that you could consider the Celtics to ever even be eligible for team of the 2020s. Because it's gonna be two different iterations of the team.

Inherently subjective criteria for what constitutes a 'team of the decade'.

FIFA must change the rule so a red card does not result in a next-game suspension

I think it's just a, a terrible rule that if you get a red card from a game that you're also suspended for the next game. Yeah. You're already serving your punishment by, by sitting out the rest of that game and your team has to go down one player. Why do you have to sit out the next game?

This is a subjective opinion on sporting rules.
