There was a show a long time ago I'm talking 2008/09 where Jim went on a tirade how he hates how people ironically put "The" in front of things to be funny/coy. I wish I had bit

"JR Smith's my favorite player!"

"Carmelo Anthony will never win a championship. Period"

"What's your take on Cavs/Warriors?"

-Every basketball discussion.

JR Smith? Seriously

Jesus christ.

Carmelo will never win? Is he serious? Does he realize that the failures of the knicks since they got Melo are... well, mostly the fault of the knicks? I mean after him who is the second best player, Jose? Yeah, that's absolutely Melo's fault. Ok.

You're exactly right. But it would be pointless for someone to argue with him because that's not even his point. He's saying it because he saw an editorial headline while skimming through the paper or twitter, so now he repeats it every time basketball comes up.

I wish Opie would make like his hero, "Pistol Pete" Maravich, and die of a rare congenital heart defect at age 40.
