A word for word match of everything Mike Weber has said.

He makes some decent points.

Cavs up 10 on the Knicks... mid 2nd... 

 

As often as the Knicks figure to be on TV, I hope they can stay healthy and be decent.

Cavs up 9... 8:30 left in the 3rd.

One of the few handful of worthwhile games to watch is tonight.

Interesting to see how GS comes out.

Barkley after the Knicks Game 1 loss... "They aren't making the playoffs."

So now when the Knicks get in as the 8th seed with 35 wins people will point out how Barkley was "wrong"

Seems like a hot take.   The East still isn't that good...  shouldn't be shocking if the Knicks are around .500 or a bit better and are a playoff team.

They gave him like 10 chances to come off of that...  say it's just Game 1, give them a chance to see what they are... and he just doubled down on it.

Which is fine, that's what he's paid to do... maybe he will be right.  If those guys can't stay healthy, could be another long year in NY.

Barkleys hot takes are right a lot more than they are wrong.

You really think the Knicks are winning just 35 games in the East?

Shaq with the shades.   Those guys are always fun together.

It's the best sports pregame/postgame show around. Such amazing chemistry.

I think Charles has a lot of hot takes and is usually right about them.

Still love the Spurs.  Pop is great, and Leonard (with Paul George) is one of my two favorite players to watch.

Kawhi Leonard still driving an old crappy car.

Like the Utah call... think Minnesota might be a year early... hope you are right.

Clippers might have a better record vs. the Spurs... but I still like San Antonio better.

[mweb08]

I think the Clippers are the third best team in the league and actually underrated at this point due to the failure to advance further in the playoffs. They still have 2 top 8 players along with DJ and JJ, plus they have strong continuity.
