No elite head coach will want to take the Lakers job

No really good coach is going to want to go there [Lakers], though. Jason Kidd's like the top of the list that you can get. And he's not good.

While elite candidates like Monty Williams did avoid them, they eventually hired Frank Vogel, who led them to a championship in 2020.

The Monday after the first weekend of March Madness is the worst Monday of the year

I actually contend it's the worst Monday of the year. [After] having nothing but games for four days nonstop, and then there's just an end. It just ends, and you're like, what the hell?

This is a subjective opinion about the sports calendar.

UCF would have beaten Duke if Taco Fall hadn't gotten into foul trouble

If Taco Fall didn't get foul trouble, which I think is impossible for Taco Fall to not get foul trouble because he basically just stands under the hoop and guys just jump into him, UCF wins that game.

Duke won by one point and scored the winning basket after Taco Fall fouled out, making this a very plausible but technically unproven claim.

The five-foul limit in college basketball is terrible and needs to be changed

I hate the five fouls in college basketball. Suck. They need to fix it.

This is a subjective opinion about sports rules.

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.
