    i don't understand why ryen won't just say that if you're the team's best player and you're 6'1 or whatever, the nba playoffs are probably going to suck for you

    i don't think he's going to give him a pass. i think he'll be crushed and it'll be more sad than funny.

    in hindsight, maybe it's not a good sign when the best thing that someone's #1 fan talks about is their "execution"

    i think i'd just rather have better players

    Didn’t see it but impressive series win for the Celtics down 3-2 against the defending champs. They can definitely win the title now that the Suns are out.

    Dont think I’ve seen ET since the late 80s. As a kid I enjoyed Flight of the Navigator, Batteries Not Included, Neverending Story more. But I’m just a humble cunt

    It’s just weird for a broadcaster to be so endlessly devoted to a player they aren’t related to or didn’t go to school with. Let alone a player who has never won anything

    “It’s a coincidence so many white guys who are from New England and Boston sports fans are here”

    Look mispronouncing names or having a voice for sign language are endearing.

    his take is probably the same as last year when his other man crush KD was getting guarded by PJ - "He's just fouling him nonstop!"
