The Warriors would have made eight straight NBA Finals if not for injuries
I'm willing to make a giant excuse for the Warriors for the two out of the eight years that they did not make the finals. It's all because of injuries. Like the Warriors should have been in the finals eight years in a row.

View episodeReturning to the NBA Finals is the crowning achievement for the Warriors' core
This feels like the crowning achievement for this group, to be able to go back there [the NBA Finals] after all the injuries, after KD came and left after guys are in and out and they've rebuilt themselves with that core of Klay, Steph and Draymond, and Steve Kerr there.
If the Warriors rebound the ball well, they cannot be beaten
I feel like if they rebound, they can't be beat. And low-key, the Warriors are pretty good rebounding team. They're not the soft Warriors that people used to hate on a few years ago. I think they were like top five or top six in the NBA and rebounds this year.
The Heat lost Game 5 because fans were stuck in concession lines, leaving the arena empty for the Celtics' 'shoot around' second half
I have a theory... The reason why the Heat lost on Wednesday night... halftime happens and then we come back. The arena is empty. The fans are all in the building... but most are stuck, still waiting in line for food... so the Celtics get opening possession and with an empty arena, it's basically shoot around for them.

I think if Duke plays in the championship game, they win by 50. Easily. That was a wasted opportunity.
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.
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.
