Takes
Jimmy Tatro shouldn't have taken a network TV job because he is a movie star
I think that you [Jimmy Tatro] are a movie star and I think that this [TV show] will tie you down and you won't have the freedom to do all these things that I think will be banging down your door... I've seen you and stuff. You're a movie star. I am not a movie star. I think this is where I end up. I don't think you end up here.

Orcas have been attacking boats off the coast of Spain recently and been training other orcas to do it too. There's gonna be an orca human problem for the future.

The story is LeBron James looking old for the first time cause whether it was the miss dunk, whether it was the flops... he just for the first time this these playoffs, he looked a little off.

Austin Reaves will get a cool haircut and tattoos next year
I wanna call my shot real quick. Austin Reaves is gonna get a cool haircut next year. He's definitely gonna upgrade his look and maybe add some tattoos.
LeBron James is a 'stack compiler' compared to Michael Jordan
So 13, if you take, if you take LeBron's first 13 years, who scored more points? That was her, that was her question. I don't know the answer to that question, but I think it's more fair way to join to, to judge it. And then she [PFT's mom] just wanted to know over and over again why they don't call traveling anymore... the answer no, she, her, her point was that he's played more years than Jordan. So he is kind of a stack compiler.

If the Celtics lose Game 2 against the Heat, I will be at the panic button
I think if we lose game two I'll be officially panic button out. But I think if we win game two, we're back.
The Victor Wembanyama hype has gotten hilariously out of control
The Victor Wembanyama hype has gotten so hilariously outta control. Wodge said he was maybe the greatest prospect in the history of team sports. People are saying he is a bigger deal than LeBron James, which is just factually incorrect.
If Victor Wembanyama is only as good as Hakeem Olajuwon or Anthony Davis, he has not met expectations
Brard Brew crew shout out, said he has expectations for We Bin Yama to be one of the best players ever. If Webe Yama is [Hakeem Olajuwon] or Anthony Davis, he has not met expectations. He has to have a career like Kareem, Jordan, LeBron, Shaq, or Duncan.
Erik Spoelstra is the best coach in the NBA
I think Eric Spoelstra is the best coach in the NBA I think with all due respect to to to Steve Kerr and Greg Popovich right now what he's doing.
LeBron James has never played a player like Nikola Jokic in the playoffs
I don't think as great as LeBron James' career has been, he's ever had to play a player like Jokic in the playoffs... Jokic is such a unique force... He's averaging a 30 point triple double in these playoffs, which is insane.
Prediction: The Nuggets will win the NBA Championship
Boston, Denver. They're the most winner teams and I would take Denver dude.
The 2023 NBA playoffs are the most 'f-ed up' in NBA history
I will also remind you Big Cat that in our playoff preview in Austin, I, I was clear that this is the most effed up post-season [in NBA history]. You did. It's so weird. We have an eight seed, oh, two eight seeds in the conference finals. We have the first playing team, winning a series. We have two plan teams winning series. It's just the, it's parody. It's a lot like March Madness.
National Treasure will win the Preakness Stakes
I'll take National Treasure. I think he's gonna control the pace... to me that gives him the edge.

I think Faiza is a standout in the Black-Eyed Susan... Peterson said no, I'm staying loyal to [Baffert]... she's undefeated.
The Nuggets will win the series against the Lakers in six games
I still think Nuggets and six, if [Jokic] can dominate like he dominated tonight and I actually don't see a reason why he wouldn't be able to as insane as his game was tonight.
The Lakers will win Game 2 because they found a way to disrupt the Nuggets in the fourth quarter
I think the Lakers might win game two because it did feel also like it in the fourth quarter. It felt like they figured a little something out. Like Anthony Davis was playing off Gordon, was disrupting everything. I just think it is gonna be a long series.
San Antonio is the perfect landing spot for Victor Wembanyama because of Gregg Popovich
If you want a young player to not have his career go sideways with bad coaching and a dysfunctional franchise, there's no better place than San Antonio for [Wembanyama] to land.
Victor Wembanyama is probably not that good because he is too skinny and too French
I did just go straight into like, he's probably not even that good... I might be on Victor Wembanyama is too big, too skinny. And also Rudy Gobert is would be his like, you know, Frenchman and so maybe what's the best dog he can have in him? A French poodle?
The 76ers' Game 7 loss was on James Harden and Joel Embiid, not Doc Rivers
Doc Rivers fired... He probably should have been fired. But it also is like one of those rare cases where Doc Rivers loves to blow it in big moments, but that loss to me was squarely on James Harden and Joel Embiid.
The Celtics have a 60/40 chance against the Heat, contradicting ESPN's lopsided odds
ESPN bullshit, fuck ESPN... they were like 97% Celtics had chance like that was the percentage that they were gonna win the series, which I thought was a little bit egregious, but I feel excited... I feel like it's a little bit closer than that. Probably like 60-40.
The NHL conference final matchups are absolute duds
Hot seat to have a couple. Yeah. First one is NHL. The conference finals. Absolute dud. Matchups. Absolute dud. It's Dallas verse Vegas. Carolina versus Florida.

Cheating in baseball is beneficial because it gets people talking about the sport

The US Men's National Team will win the 2026 World Cup because of Folarin Balogun

LIV and PGA Tour players don't actually have bad blood with each other

Winning majors is the only benchmark that matters in golf
At the end of the day, all anybody cares about is majors and how many majors you got... At the end of the day, it's not how many wins in the regular season did you have? It's how many Super Bowls you win.
Brooks Koepka is fully back and will deliver at the PGA Championship
I would say Brooks, I think Brooks is fully back. I know you guys are big Brooks guys. Just the way he played at the Masters, the way he looked at the Masters. He finally seems to be healthy... Major Brooks is back. I would be, I would not be surprised at all if he won it.
Patrick Cantlay will win his first major this week at the PGA Championship
The guy who I really liked this week who would be a bit of a snoozer champion is Patrick Cantlay. Oh, I feel like this, yeah, I know you guys didn't want to hear that, but stole Tiger's Caddy and I feel like he's gonna win his first major this week.
John Rahm and Scottie Scheffler have separated themselves from the rest of the golf world
I do think that those two have separated themselves, but I think it's also, I think Rahm is the clear number one right now. I think Rahm is clear number one, Scottie is clear number two, and then there's a big gap between everyone else.
Charlie Woods will eventually play as a professional golfer
I'll say yes. I think he will. He will be a pro. You know, being a pro in golf is not that difficult... But the spirit of the question obviously being Will he? Yeah, I think he'll make a run. I mean, all signs point to him being definitely like a division one level player and he'll get a chance.
Jason Day's ceiling is still historically high as his back issues have subsided
Jason Day who won last week... his ceiling is very high. People forget, but in 2016, Jason Day was, had a historically great year. His ceiling is very high. So two guys that are sort of outside the top five favorites, I would say Ricky Fowler and Jason Day.

It's actually, if he were to put on deodorant before going to a gym... that would be a sign he's cheating on you. Be like, why are you putting on deodorant before you're going to get sweaty?
Going to separate weddings as a couple is the dream scenario
This is the easiest question ever. You both go to your weddings and have the best time ever without your girlfriend or boyfriend... once you start going to 'em and you get in your wedding like late twenties, early thirties... they all just blend together, this one will stick out. Might as well have some fun.
Jayson Tatum officially has a 'dog' in him after Game 7
I think the real winner in this series should be us for saying that Jayson Tatum is the best player on the court and he needs to get a dog. We were dog used dog salesman adoption counselors and we set up a tent outside Jayson Tatum's house. And he adopted a dog from us. He's got a dog now.
Jayson Tatum is a top five player in the NBA
I think Jayson Tatum is a phenomenal, phenomenal basketball player, top five player. There are times when he floats and isn't aggressive and it drives me insane. Cause this is the type of guy that should go and take a series and that's exactly what he did.
Doc Rivers holds the NBA record for the most losses by a coach in games with a chance to clinch a series
Doc Rivers is now 17 and 33 straight up with a chance to clinch a series. That means 33 losses is the most of any coach in NBA history with a chance to clinch a series. 34% when his team has a chance to clinch.
The Process is officially dead in Philadelphia
There isn't much more to this. The Process is dead. It is officially dead. It's over. Doc Rivers is gone a hundred percent. James Harden's gone a hundred percent.
James Harden doesn't actually want to win in the playoffs because he wants to party
I actually think that there might be something to the fact that James Harden doesn't want to win in the playoffs because he gets paid regardless and he just wants to go party in the off season. Like legitimately James Harden might not want to win playoff series.
Joel Embiid cannot lead a team deep into the playoffs as the number one guy
He's clearly not a go-to guy in the playoffs. He's just not. Facts. And like that's something like even and if he does go, he is gonna go somewhere where he doesn't have to be the go-to guy in the playoffs. He can't lead a team deep in a playoff run.
Anthony Davis is a better basketball player than Joel Embiid
[Anthony Davis] is better than Joel Embiid. Anthony Davis does the exact same thing but has a title. Better.
The NBA MVP award should only be officially given if the winner reaches the Conference Finals
I think there should be a rule in MVP voting that if you don't get past second round, it just goes to the second place guy... okay you got the MVP, we won't give it to you until you get to the Conference Finals. Then you officially become the MVP.
The Lakers are going to win the NBA title this year
I think I'm just gonna have to put a big bet on the Nuggets because I'm so scared of the Lakers. I have to like do a last stand because I think the Lakers are gonna win the title.
The Golden State Warriors dynasty is on pause, not over
It's not demolition. Dynasty not over, just dynasty on pause... I think if you win another in the next three years, then it still counts. It blends together as the same.
