Michael Porter Jr.'s hip injury is more concerning than his back injury

I'm more worried about the hip injury. I think hip is – and that's maybe just a recency bias because IT [Isaiah Thomas] just kind of stopped playing basketball. But if you're 18 years old and you've got a hip and you've got a back on your resume already – yeah, you basically can't play – you can't play sports.

MPJ has managed a successful career despite the injuries, though they have caused him to miss significant time (including his entire rookie year).

Adrian Wojnarowski is bigger than the NBA and ESPN can't touch him

It's like ESPN is not going to do shit to him. No. Because he's Woj. He's bigger than the league. Technically, he didn't tip any picks. No, he just said that they're unlikely to pass on them.

Woj continued to be the premier NBA insider at ESPN for years after this incident, confirming his status.

Philip Rivers is a better quarterback than Eli Manning

Philip Rivers, better quarterback than Eli Manning. Much better. Better career. More viral. I know the two Super Bowls... statisticaly, better quarterback.

This is a perennial sports debate that cannot be definitively solved, though Rivers has better regular season stats and Eli has the championships.

Trae Young looks like he sucks

Granted, I'm not a great basketball mind. That might surprise you at home. No, you're a brilliant basketball mind. But Trae Young looks like he sucks to me.

Trae Young became an All-Star and led his team to an Eastern Conference Final, making this take largely incorrect.

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.
