The Dunk Contest is unfixable because we have already seen every possible dunk

There's really no way to fix the Dunk Contest. I think they've jumped over the biggest human they can find... maybe it's just that we've seen every cool Dunk and there's only so many cool dunks that you can do.

The 2024 dunk contest was widely panned as one of the worst ever, supporting the idea that it is stale.

Mac McClung should be ineligible for the NBA Dunk Contest because he isn't an active NBA player

Mac McClung should be ineligible because he is not in the [NBA]... That is the NBA dunk contest, not the G League dunk contest. If you're going to do that, just bring people off the street.

Subjective opinion on exhibition eligibility rules.

A G-League player who wins the NBA Dunk Contest should receive a two-week NBA contract

If you win the Dunk contest and you're on a G League team, you should get like a two week contract.

Mac McClung won in 2024 and did not receive an immediate NBA call-up following the event.

Caitlin Clark and Steph Curry should compete in a logo-three contest at a future All-Star Weekend

I think in a couple years we'll see Caitlin Clark against Steph Curry and they're gonna do like logo threes, like extra long three pointers. And that would be cool.

The NBA eventually announced a variation of this for the following year involving multiple participants including Clark.

The Chiefs' window never closed

I don't think we ever actually closed the Chiefs' window. I think Mahomes was just in bed because he was injured, far away from the window.

The Chiefs' long-term contention status is ultimately subjective, though their dynasty remained active at the time of the episode.

Mahomes will be back to himself by season's end

By the end of this season, Mahomes is gonna be back to being Mahomes.

Whether Mahomes returned to his established level by the end of the 2026 NFL season had not yet been resolved.

The Oregon loss could turn Dan Lanning into a psychopath

I don't think that Dan Lanning has slept since that loss. I think Dan Lanning has turned into an absolute psycho because of this loss. He's sick. It actually might be a dangerous thing for the rest of the Big Ten that Oregon lost that game.

Whether the loss made Oregon more dangerous over the rest of the season is a future, testable team-performance claim.
