The NBA players in the 80s were more authentic because they weren't friends and didn't go on 'banana boats' together
I always like when people compare the NBA today to the 80s when guys weren't friends. They were not friends. People forget that Magic and LeBron, they didn't go on—I mean, Magic and Larry Bird, they didn't go on banana boats together. It was a different era.

Next year, it's going to be a live show. I'm actually guaranteeing that right now. I want to do it at Guy Fieri's restaurant, like in the back room.
Guy Fieri's food is the best food I've ever had
I'm a big Guy Fieri guy, so I feel like I can say this. The food was phenomenal. Best food I've ever had.

The NBA should rebrand the 'granny shot' as the 'pimp grip' to encourage players to use it
Nobody, no player in the NBA wants to shoot a free throw granny style. But if it's pimp grip, that sounds pretty fucking cool. Listen, if it goes in, it doesn't matter. Like if he and he would, he actually probably get some endorsements from it.
I want the Thunder to win so we can love Victor Wembanyama longer before the inevitable hate cycle starts
I know who I want to win. I want the Thunder to win this series. And the reason why I want the thunder to win this series is because I think if the thunder win, we get to restart the clock on how much longer we get to love Weby before we hate 'em. If the Spurs win this series and then they win their first championship and Weby dominates, we're gonna eventually hate Weby.
