How about this one? Hank, you're gonna like this one. Jalen Brunson. Mm. Does that do anything for you? Yeah. Not clutch at all... I'm trying to predict where the narratives are gonna go next... The Knicks were built to beat the Celtics this year.
Steph Curry enters the Kobe realm of the GOAT conversation if he wins a 5th title this year
If the Warriors go on a run, which they could... Steph Curry goes, lights out. Is Steph Curry, does he enter the Kobe realm of the goat conversation?... If the Warriors win the NBA title this year, Steph Curry wins finals MVP, I feel like you're gonna have the Jordan, LeBron, Kobe Curry conversation.
I'm going to bet whoever loses Game 1 of the NBA Finals because the series is definitely going to seven games.
One strategy. I actually, the one only betting strategy I think I have for this is I think I'm just gonna bet whoever loses game one because I do think it's gonna go seven. So no matter who loses game one, I'm just gonna bet that they're gonna trade games back and forth.

The 2022 picks punishment should be the loser having to beat Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's all-time scoring record
Loser has to beat Kareem's all time point record. So we just put 'em in a gym and they have to score 38,388 points... You can't, you can't shoot in the paint. Oh fuck. So you can't take layups and the second place person has to rebound.

The Celtics can beat the Bucks in the playoffs
I was wrong about the Celtics-Bucks series. I said there was no chance in hell that the Celtics make it a series. I'm going to jump off that take now... I'd like to say I think the Celtics can beat the Bucks.
Jimmy Butler will go 'alpha' and have over 30.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists vs the Timberwolves.
I got a pick for you guys... Jimmy Butler's playing the Wolves for the first time... over 30.5 points, rebounds, and assists. He's going to do the same thing that he did in the practice. He's just going to go off. He's going to alpha the fuck out of him.
The Dallas Mavericks will win over 34.5 games because they hired Haralabos Voulgaris
I've got my over at the Dallas Mavericks. I'm taking the over on 34 and a half. Dirk I think is out for a little bit... I'm going on this based solely on the fact that they hired that guy [Haralabos Voulgaris] who's a really good gambler to run their analytics department. If you can beat Vegas, then you can beat the Clippers.

The Clippers will win over 53.5 games because it is a contract year for Blake Griffin
I'm going to go with the Clippers over. Really? 53 and a half. Blake Griffin... he said that he's healthy and chomping at the bit. A little insider information for you. It's a contract year, too. I think they're going to be ready to go.
The Celtics will win under 52.5 games because expectations are too high
I'm taking the under on the Celtics. 52.5 feels like too much. It feels like they're going to be a fine team, but it feels more like a 48-49 win team.
Take the under in the Cavaliers-Raptors series
Word to the wise, take the under in the Cavs Raptors series.
