The Mavericks' formula for winning is Luka Doncic scoring 28 while three other starters score in the high teens

That's the formula more [Mark] Cuban should just be like, Hey, every night Luka you go out there and you score 28 and also have like three other starters in the late teens, early twenties.

While this happened in Game 4, the Mavericks ultimately lost the series to the Warriors in five games, suggesting this 'formula' wasn't enough to overcome Golden State.

The Warriors might be Bulletproof and can come back from any deficit

The warriors might be the only team that can be Bulletproof... they can come back from anything.

The Warriors eventually won the 2022 NBA title, supporting the idea of their 'bulletproof' nature during this run.

Bam Adebayo defers too much to Jimmy Butler when they are on the floor together

I do think that there is something to the fact that like when Jimmy Butler, when he's on your team, like he has to be the alpha... and bam, we'll step into the dog roll when Jimmy's not there. But when he's around, he's always going to be the one that's like deferential to us and like lacks a little bit of confidence in himself because Jimmy's out there doing his Jimmy thing.

Subjective analysis of team chemistry and player psychology.

Robert Williams III is the most important defender on the Celtics

100%. If Robert Williams [III] was healthy all year, he would have been the defensive player [of the year].

Williams was elite but Smart won the award. Williams' career has since been hampered by the health issues Hank mentions.

The Rams' Australia travel plan was an all-time 'fuck it' move

It was a terrible idea that Sean McVay tried to do, but I have to respect how much of an all-time fuck-it move it was to just pretend that time zones don't exist. He was just like, you know what, fuck it, we're not gonna adapt. We're gonna fly in, fly out.

The Rams lost the Australia opener after using the fly-in/fly-out approach, supporting the criticism in this game-specific judgment.

KOC will get the best out of Kyler Murray

I think that what he's gonna get the absolute best outta Kyler Murray that he possibly can at this point, which I think should be good enough to be a pretty good team this year.

Kyler Murray's 2026 season and Minnesota's performance will determine whether this forecast holds.

Jayden Daniels is going to remind everyone that the bad man is back

I think Jayden Daniels, he's as healthy as he has been since the start of last season. ... I think that he's gonna remind a lot of people who he is. Yeah. That's what I think. I think the bad man might be back.

Daniels' 2026 season will determine whether he re-established himself as an elite or feared quarterback.
