The Sacramento Kings actually had a good draft

Sacramento Kings. The Kings actually drafted well. So they got Fox, Justin Jackson, and Harry Giles from Duke. And I actually for a moment was like, is the world – are we still on earth right now?

OpinionBasketballMedium
De'Aaron Fox became a franchise star and All-NBA player. Justin Jackson and Harry Giles, however, had underwhelming careers. Overall, getting a star like Fox makes the draft a success.

Michael Jordan will mentally break Dwight Howard

Now we're going to get Jordan playing one-on-one with Dwight and just backing him down. He's going to dunk on him. Talking shit to him, beating his ass like he did to Kwame Brown. Worked out pretty well for him.

PredictionBasketballMedium
Dwight Howard only played one season in Charlotte. While there wasn't a public blowout with Jordan like the Kwame Brown incident, the team was mediocre and Howard was moved quickly.

Phil Jackson is the Wile E. Coyote of the NBA

You could just make up a story like Phil Jackson was spotted walking around MSG with his hand in a toaster and his foot stuck in a bucket and he fell off a balcony, and his feet kept moving until he looked down, and then he fell. He's basically become the Wile E. Coyote of NBA.

OpinionBasketballMedium
Jackson was fired by the Knicks five days after this episode aired (June 28, 2017), validating the idea that his tenure was a disaster.

The Vegas Golden Knights jerseys suck

Those jerseys suck. Bad sleeves. Suck. It's like they tried to get as many colors as they could fit on a sleeve... A fictional 2004 franchise in Madden has better jerseys than a 2017 real-life franchise. It's really bad.

OpinionHockeyMediumSubjective
Jersey preference is subjective, though many fans eventually grew to like the 'gold' aesthetic, especially as the team became immediately successful.
