  1. Well that’s a very insulting take of the rockets wolves game, as usual. No one was tanking. No one was trying to lose. These are two of the best teams in the league giving each other their best game. Both going on runs. Everyone is saying this was the game of the year. Truly amazing. And you come in and just say they were trying to lose. They are tanking. They are bad. They are dumb. That’s really rude and insulting.

  2. An interesting connection between the two games covered in this video: the Celtics coach won one game, the previous Celtics coach lost the other game. The significance is the types of things being questioned about the Rockets, things which are rarely said about the Celtics this season.
    * "How dumb Houston can be sometimes just in terms of their collective basketball IQ." [28:00]
    * "Amen Thompson ends up catching in the corner, wide open, doesn't want to shoot it for obvious reasons." [28:05]

  3. Mike Wilbon was just saying nobody expected the Celtics to be here after losing 4 key starters. Which is “Most Valuable “ by definition. Don’t think it’s that egregious to say. There’s just too many other players ballin out this year.

  4. Been saying that yall hated on the jays bc they played on good teams but good teams limit individual opportunity too – to Jason’s point abt Jaylen getting #1 reps this yr.

    Jaylens flashed this upside for a long time when he got the chance n that’s a big reason both the jays have been underrate this channel included

  5. I usually love your takes but I’m shocked you’re not acknowledging the refs during the wolves game and also Mcdaniels leaving the game. We had all of our starters out of the game by the end. And we STILL WON. I was so excited to hear your take on this and I’m just confused. This was not the best complete analysis.

  6. The Thunder won 3 straight against the Celtics before this game. 4 straight when Shai plays. OKC will beat Boston in 6 if they meet in the Finals. Let's not overreact.

  7. Saying that JB got the best of Shai is hilarious. The Celtics got the best of the non-Shai Thunder. Celtics were hitting shots, no one other than Shai was for the Thunder.

  8. Nothing in the Adam Silver Era really matters because he outlawed defense with FIBA Rules. Championship's, MVP's, DPOY's etc…!!! All Pointless without any real resistence…!! 🤷🏻💯

  9. But hes missing 3 starters and 2 bench playeres. What are you taling about forget about hte stats if any one other super star did that your head would explode. I totoally disagree JB is MVP

  10. Let's start with a side-note: "I turned that game off twice" absolutely fried me 😂

    Ifind your basketball analysis and delivery fantastic but I just don't understand how you don't think Tatum was in that top tier pre-injury. If he's not in that "top tier." He most certainly has a gap between him and that "2nd tier" so is he in a tier by himself? Shooting consistency? I've seen that man not be able to buy a bucket and still look like the best player on the floor. Tatums value goes far beyond shooting and that is part of what makes him so great.
