Their chances of winning this series is zero as far as I'm concerned. The only reason the 8% is up there is because you're giving human beings a chance. After all, Steph Curry could have food poisoning or, you know, might get kidnapped or Klay Thompson might get injured or, you know, somebody might have diarrhea. So I don't know.
I look like I want the finals for LeBron James more than LeBron James wants. You do. I agree with that. Based on what we saw particularly last night. That's deep and true. That is correct. I don't get it. I don't understand it.

Anybody could dismiss Donald Trump at this particular moment in time, not just because of him, but because of what we've seen the Democrats do. We're not falling for it any longer. The American people aren't falling for it any longer. I voted Democrat, and I got to tell you something right now. I don't like the fact that I did. I don't like what I'm seeing.

I don't want to hear about, oh, we're about a law. Nobody's above the law. Nobody's above the law. But then you go out and you're pardoning your son. And you're trying to blame everybody else for it. I don't want to hear about defund the police. I don't want to hear about, you know what, there should be open borders. I don't want to hear this stuff.

And I don't think most of the American people want to hear that. And I'm no longer interested in, nor do I believe any of us should be interested in, in listening to a bunch of fear-mongering to tell us who we shouldn't vote for. Why don't you come up with a plan that tells us why we should vote for you?

You're about a tad bit away from being compared to Ben Simmons. It's starting to look that bad. Now, let me tell you something right now. You bring up the injuries and all of that stuff. I look at the disinterest on his face, and that was before it got cracked, okay? I look at the disinterest, the lack of enthusiasm, whatever. Now, we can talk about his injuries, and fair enough, Perk, right?

But here's the problem. You injured last year. You only played 39 games. In the playoffs, obviously, you got bounced in the first round by the New York Knicks. You didn't look that way in the Olympics. Looked pretty damn happy. but pretty damn happy playing in the Olympics, okay? And then inexplicably, you ain't ready to go come this season, all right?

And I'm looking at that, and I got this list of injuries here just so y'all know. It's not a fracture. Foot, knee, health protocols, back, hand, face, ankle, shoulder, calf, hip, elbow, ribs, injury management. That is why I was against your assertion to sit him down because I'm going like this. He's always hurt. This brother will get hurt going to the bathroom.

I got to use him when I got to use him because I never know. Just because you don't play him don't mean he ain't going to show up hurt. Evidenced by him playing in the Olympics looking just fine. Two months later when the season starts, there's nothing. He's injured and it's like, what the hell happened?

Yeah, it was so frustrating because I know, I mean, I used to spend hours a day at track practice just to shave off. I mean, tenths of a second, hundredths of a second tracks of sport were just like a little bit of time off is huge. And it was just so frustrating to line up and just feel like I was racing for second place.
