NBA arena decibel readers are fraudulent and inflated by 30 decibels

A lot of people have started to download their own decibel readers on their phones, going to games, comparing them against what the scoreboard's showing. And guess what? Turns out it's like 30 decibels quieter than they're showing.

While not a scientific study, many fans and tech reviewers have noted that arena decibel meters often use improper weighting or locations to produce higher numbers for entertainment.

Draymond Green will eventually earn a one-game suspension during these playoffs

Draymond [Green] got another technical tonight. So he's on his way to earning a one-game suspension at some point during these playoffs.

Green finished the 2019 playoffs with 6 technicals, avoiding the 7-technical threshold that triggers a mandatory one-game suspension.

The Rockets will win at least one game in Houston against the Warriors

Are we thinking sweep? No. No. No chance. They're going to take at least one. I just wanted to throw it out there. At least one in Houston.

The Rockets won Games 3 and 4 in Houston during the Western Conference Semifinals.

Kyrie Irving will not play as poorly for the rest of the Bucks series as he did in Game 2

Kyrie [Irving] will not play that bad for the rest of the series. I'm okay with that because that means, I mean, it's not like you don't have a shitty...

Kyrie actually continued to play poorly, shooting 8-22, 7-22, and 6-21 in the following three games as the Celtics were eliminated 4-1.

The Detroit Pistons are moving in the right direction despite their Game 7 loss

The progression of the Pistons along the way is like, what were they, two years ago? They won like 16 or 18 games. They were so bad. Last year they had competitive series against The Knicks. Then this year, the natural progression from that is, let's take the regular season super seriously. Let's win all the games that we can get a high seed... I would say the totality of this season, we're still going the right direction in Detroit.

The Pistons did indeed improve from 14 wins in 2023-24 to a high seed in 2026, making the trajectory claim historically accurate within the show's timeline.

I will renounce my American citizenship and become French if the Canadiens win the Stanley Cup

I will renounce American citizenship and become French if the Canadiens win the Stanley Cup this year... I'll probably need somebody to come and hang out with me and... the south of France is nice.

The 2026 Stanley Cup winner is pending. If Montreal wins, we await PFT's French naturalization.

Patrick Reed is the first PAWG in the history of professional golf.

Patrick Reed, let me tell you, I think he might be the first PAWG golfer. He is. He's thick as hell. Like he was filling out. He also wears... the tight pants... he looks like early era Meghan Trainor... He bends over. He's like, ooh.
