Bill has aged into Jack Frost from those claymation holiday movies.
He’s eating right, takes walks like a madman and has boatloads of cash to research and buy the correct supplements for health, all while getting that amazing Cali sunshine every single day.
Rob Mahoney stares into the camera like he's watching for when the roofie kicks in.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It is a menacing stare
😂
I always think it’s like the jealous girlfriend meme. I do like his takes though!
This is a wild description lol
mahoney has lego hair
Hairpiece
Rob Mahoney is easily the best guy on the ringer
J KYLE MANN!
Nah Zach Lowe. He never even worked for The Ringer but somehow he still is.
I want a Ryan & Rob set
Rob, Solak, Ryen, J Kyle Mann, , KOC... hard to pick. I do miss Jason and NBA desktop though
I know who the worst guys are and it's Logan and Wosny.
Every time Bill Simmons ask a question the other dude respond with a question.. And Bill end up the one answering.. 😂😂😂
Jedi mind trick lol
when will bill get a 1080p camera
You want 25 minutes of an HD look at a 54 year old man's face from like 2 feet away? That's what you're asking for.
I'm not saying Bill is a minger, I'm just saying it's a podcast so as long as he has a good mic he's straight.
You're not paying attention; it's "What Happens if Bill gets a 1080p camera"
@@doktarr lol you’re right
Hahah yes. Something better than a cell phone camera from 2005
Knicks upset the Celtics to reach the Finals and the Mavericks upset the Nuggets to reach the Finals. Luka vs Brunson. Kyrie vs the New York team he didn't pick. That's some quality popcorn storytelling.
What? Who cares about Kyrie "not picking the Knicks"?
@@edgardoMurniaKnicks fans who think they deserve every free agent bc they’re in NY
@@matthewadkins7973 But they never get anybody. Why would they think that?
Yes man rob back at it
Uploading video at the same time as the pod? Love to see it
The Carmelo Knicks beat the Celtics in the 2013 playoffs. Last year of KG and Paul Pierce on the Celtics
Bill, you should do a team USA prediction/draft for the 2028 Olympic team.
“Russilo, the Kyrie piece…”
The Advanced Stats MVP is also the regular MVP, as it turns out.
They didn’t lose 2022 because of home court. They lost because of the Middleton injury.
Probably but they got a title the year before because Harden and Kyrie got hurt in the nets series.
Was looking for this comment. Bill wasn’t trying to take away any credit from the Celtics, but it was definitely the Middleton Injury over home court.
@@Joes35 Fair point, it definitely played a part in that series. Maybe things balanced out in the grand scheme.
Everytime Bill talks about the 2022 Bucks/Celtics playoffs, he conveniently forgets that Middleton missed the whole series with an MCL sprain, Jrue’s offense was awful, and it STILL took Boston a Tatum miracle and unlimited 3s in 7 games to win
i dont think he forgets. Everything your saying just doesnt matter. Every series has things to point at and say "oh well if this didnt happen." If they knicks lose to the 76ers no one will care randle was out. If the 76ers lose to the knicks no one cares Embiid was hurt. If the Bucks lose to the pacers no one cares Giannis didnt play. The fact of the matter is this is how sports work and trying to explain away losses like this is weak. And for the record im not a celtics fan so this isnt based on a bias
Middleton got hurt because the basketball gods were absolutely disgusted that a supposedly physical and tough team like the Bucks decided to be testicle-less and complete chicken shit by avoiding the Heat through tanking easy winnable games, and opting to face a weak ass Bulls team in the 1st round instead. Middleton slips on air vs the Bulls, and his career is compromised.
How about stop being a bitch and go play real teams?
@@wizzywizzard3178this. The ifs mean nothing, they lost and that is that
@@FiveDollar69 it does matter but regardless, the Celtics won and the bucks lost. When teams are injured I’m tired of people saying if they had a certain player 2 they would’ve won a series, because they didn’t have that player and there is no way to know if that hypothetical is even accurate, all we know for sure is one team won and one team lost. These hypotheticals just don’t mean anything.
@@everetthaddock1140
A good excuse is still an excuse. And the better team still won.
Even with randle hurt the knicks have a great window of opportunity that shouldn't be downplayed so easily.The 2 best players in the conference are hurt,their teams are weak this year,orlando,indiana n cleveland still aren't ready yet,the celtics won't happen til possibly the conference finals and the team itself is hitting on all cylinders.
Everybody is synced together in a way where idk if it'll repeat itself like this next year so now's the best time to strike when 90% of the playoff teams on both sides are questionable
Remember when the Spurs were criticized for their handling of Kawhi’s health situation? Injury, secrecy, and broken promises are the only thing you can count on him to deliver. It’s too bad because he is so talented.
Right. Turns out that they were right about Leonard and weren't going to tolerate it.
0:34 - If that happens, Paul George probably leaves because Dallas knocked them out. Or he re-ups and the 'he doesn't care about winning' narrative begins.
3:43 - They probably use the Zion injury angle to justify staying put. Especially in a market where it's hard for them to get talented guys.
5:40 - They pick from their bag of mostly valid excuses (No Giannis, coaching change mid season, Lillard's personal life this year) and run it back.
9:49 - Mitchell leaves and everyone gets fired. Orlando and Philly kick the tires on him, but he scoffs at all of those ideas and goes to Miami for not as much money as he thought he'd get.
11:31 - The 'Luka for MVP' stuff becomes unbearable and will only be topped by the eventual 'how did we ever think Jokic wasn't the best player in the world?' stuff around the midpoint of next season. It won't get as toxic as Embid vs Jokic last year, but it'll come pretty close.
13:20 - (assuming nobody gets hurt) Knicks fans justifiably think they're winning the whole thing.
Celtics fans call for Mazulla to be fired again, and the Celtics double down, blame bad luck, the 'stars don't win until they're 27' stat gets thrown around to defend Tatum again, they fail to look at their chocking culture (thank you Brad Stevens) and double down again by resigning everyone (hello peyton pritchard overpay).
18:18 - If Pheonix loses, coach gets fired and Durant has a whole summer of burner account tweets saying cryptic things and tries to get himself traded to whoever wins the title this year; unless it's Boston.
If Minnesota loses, they publicly say 'we're young and growing together' while they subtly shopping KAT.
20:24 - Harden 100% gets paid by somebody.
this is as accurate as it can get, the only thing i would say is the jokic slander will begin as soon as he loses a playoff series, people are waiting for him to slip up. i dont see donavan in miami though
Also, at 13.20, we're getting some of all time Bill Simmons coping. Like a new height never seen before.
If James harden gets paid 30 plus milli there needs to be an investigation
The greatest ability is availability.
As a Wolves fan, I have zero faith in the Clippers. (Yes I know the Wolves can be first round exits as well 😂)
If the Bucks don’t have Giannis for round 1, I’m being generous and saying that Indy wins in 5. Indy was 4-1 against them this season with Giannis averaging like 40. And now Indy has added Siakam and is a better team than earlier in the year. I could so easily see this being a sweep with no Giannis
Kawhi was healthy in 2020 when he choked a 3-1 lead
Yep played like dogshit in the 4th quarter against the nuggets couldn’t have been happier
Small sample size and doc was the coach.
That team was sneaky not that good. Montrez Harrell and Lou Will were like very important players in their rotation.
Still doesn’t excuse Kawhi playing bad but it was clearly an anomaly as we saw the next year.
Bill Simmons no longer in 240p
"Knicks beat the Celtics in the ECF"... to quote Chernobyl, "Why worry about something that isn't going to happen?"
Tatum is the epitome of "not great, not terrible"
@@jamesh7469 While I appreciate the additional reference, how can a multi-time (after this season) 1st Team All NBA player be "not great not terrible"... I think you're using a faulty dosimeter.
@@andrewbaker3855 i just wanted to rip on the celtics with the first thing that came to mind. Probably applies to Mazula more than Tatum lol
Love how they don’t talk about the Celtics hardly. They should have the most pressure but nobody talks about it lmao instead it’s all bucks for some reason
To actually answer the 'what happens if the Celtics lose?' to anyone question, it'll play out something like this.
Fans call for Mazulla to be fired again, we have another whole summer of 'guys don't win until they're 27' stat to protect Tatum (despite this being his 3rd or 4th legit crack at a ring and you don't get to pick when your window is as a franchise), the front office doubles down on this roster by overpaying Peyton Pritchard and blaming bad luck as opposed to actual introspection of 'hmm maybe Brad Stevens is the reason this core is so soft mentally'.
In short, nothing changes if the Celtics lose; which isn't particularly interesting to talk about. Even though you're 100% correct that they have no excuses this and next year (assuming everyone stays healthy).
@@Weaponator18the Green Bay packers of the NBA.
For years they held onto these draft picks and never made any all in moves and therefore were always good always made the playoffs and some years even made a run or 2.
This year I actually feel they went in and made moves with KP and Jrue so I give them credit for that and I honestly think that will be a big difference… BUT if they don’t get out of the East or win it all a lot of questions will need to be asked
Ah, yes. Bill Simmons famously does not talk about the Celtics much.
Get your own show. 😄
Better than Chauncey? Get Rusello back!! Would Brunsen go into the hall of fame if his career was over today...
was chauncey every a top 5 mvp candidate, was he ever scoring almost 30ppg? I dont even consider that a hot take. its might be early but when the pistons won it was a team effort and defense was their calling card. if the knicks do anything its on brunsons back.
Agree that Brunson is better than Chauncey, or more talented, but top-5 MVP getter, finals MVP, mutlti-time all-nba, all-defense, all-star....also, Chauncey played in a slower, more physical with fewer shot attempts overall. Very few people put up 30 a game when he played. Billups was super good. It's actually a compliment to Brunson. Jalen may be HOF some day, but the only way he is HOF now is if his career ends due to mortal tragedy
@@alwinduarte8094Chauncey could defend other point guards.
I don’t understand why Giannis & Dame can’t do what Jokic & Murray do: the hand-offs, the picks, etc. It seems so obvious. What am I missing?
Since Paul George hasn’t been extended, could him on the Knicks work? (Genuine question not a Knicks stan)
Knicks won't have cap space but can make it work with a sign and trade. Either with randle or with Bogdanvics contract plus their quantity of mid 1st rd picks
I’ve been on this all end of season. Kawhi healthy, they beat mavs and okc.
Don’t think the clippers can hang with the Thunder matchup wise
@@juiceoo6906That makes no sense. I would be more concerned about Holmgren not being able to consistently handle Zubac physicality and the Thunder not having enough scoring options compared to the Clippers.
@@nocturne311offense, defense, and athleticism favor OKC
@@amc1140 Stick to guitars, my guy.
@@amc1140size favors clippers and almost every other team in the west vs OKC
🥂🥂
I disagree Bill with Pelicans played better without Ingram, they played better with CJ on the bench, they were scoring on almost every posession. Once Zion got hurt and Willie Green put CJ back in the Lakers scored each and every time. I'm trading CJ way before I ever think about trading Ingram. Ludacris thoughts on that
Agreed. Along with BI is younger
100% cj and to an extent jonas are holding back what could be an elite defensive team and they just need one way offensive players when zion is out there
2013 playoffs the Carmelo Knicks beat KG-Pierce Celtics in the 1st round right before the trade to Brooklyn
Kwahi made the Clippers trade away the Bank and Shai . It will go down as one of the worst trade in this era of Basketball if he doesn't win a chip.
But kawhi and pg is what they got...it was worth the gamble
NOLA wins the play in on Ingram’s back. Way to go Simmons
1979 was probably the weirdest year for best player alive at least since the early 50's after the playoffs cause gus williams was the best player on a title team but he never was a mvp or a finals mvp or seen as a top 4 player ever...erving malone hayes kareem were still seen as the best guys...strange year in nba history to look at...its up there with 1951 for sure as a weird year...a top scorer didn't win the title....hamilton won the pistons the title in 2004 but he wasn't seen as a top 5 player and he could score ala thomas in the late 80's early 90's doing the same thing...
Are we talking about Joel already? I thought we were talking about Kawai on the Clippers… 1:30
Oh well now this is ironic 2:14 . 😂
Wasn’t Ingram pretty good while Zion was hurt? They are basically the young Clippers at this point. Maybe they’ll put the pieces together once or twice if they don’t break up… 5:55
What happens if bill gets a camera from this century?
Rob Mahoney should be on tv with the way he answers questions. Little too much yappin for me
What happens if people stop over-estimating the Lakers (and every other team built around aging superstars) and closing-in-on-40 LeBron every preseason and postseason or being oblivious to the aging process?
You don’t ball just like bill
As a sixer fan I'm really surprised how fast it seems you guys have written off the sixers against the Knicks...we will see. Also I can't wait to see James Harden flop
Hey, you guys need to chill out disrespecting the 04 pistons like that. Jalen Brunson is a great offensive player, but the 04 Pistons still had Chauncey Billups, rip Hamilton and Rasheed Wallace. all three of those guys would cook in today’s NBA.
Sorry,
I'm a bucs fan who has no stake in the Luka/Joker conversation they were having, but that is BS if in their minds they are going to wipe the slate clean on everything that Jokic did and suddenly crown Luka the better player if he hypothetically beats Jokic once in the playoffs. That's like how kids think on the playground.
And I freaking love, and I mean looove, Luka...But if we are just going to wipe away people's accomplishments that easily then what's the point. That's wild
Knicks took Boston in '72 and '13 as well.
Kawhi was healthy and cooking everyone earlier in the season, when he was scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent in 2024 off season, BUT as soon as he landed the big contract, his "injuries" resurfaced.
Edit: No hate for Kawhi but something definitely fishy about whole thing.
Since Doc came there, Giannis, Khris and Dame played 8 (!) games together. And the scedule of the second hafl of the saison was way more difficutl for the Bucks. So, to blame Doc for not bulding a decent team meanwhile, is a bit unfair..
They still should have found a way to win 52 games. (Portland, Grizzlies, Raptors, Wizards)
Knicks beat the Celtics in 2013 playoffs. Pierce and Garnett sent to Brooklyn that offseason, this trade gave the Celtics Tatum and Brown
How will the playoffs be called? Well we're through the first weekend and they appear to be going back to the first half of calling every little bs tic tac call. Not sure why tbh
What if kawhi brings a title to the clippers. Where would he rank all time
Remember when ya'll shit endlessly on Siakam and said there was no comparison between him and BI? Good times.
On the plus side you were right. There is no comparison. Siakam 14/17 Game 1. The dagger, blowing by Draymond Game 6. Scoring more points than Pippen and he and Kawhi matching MJ and Pippens highest playoff points.
Ya. BI just like that. Oh, Ben Simmons too.
Bill doubling down on the “Celtics lost a lot of stupid games and should’ve had a better record” take
Well, it's true tbh
@@Ajsopranosrubberdux we can argue that for every team
@@razkable well, I mean, Boston did lose to the Lakers missing LeBron and AD.. plus the Hornets..
the Knicks have 1 player that can create his own shot in a playoff setting, them beating the Celtics is extremely farfetched.
True but Tatum and Brown are clowns and find ways to choke. They lost the last two postseasons because Tatum and Brown sold in each series. Mazzulla is ass as well.
I swear bill just doesn’t like Luka lol. How, and I mean seriously how, is Luka not considered the best player in the world if he is the best player on the floor in a series where the Mavs beat the nuggets? If out playing the best player in the world in a 7 game series, with what people consider a lesser team, doesn’t constitute the title of best player in the world, then idk what will
So disrespectful to Chauncey... if he was a shot chucker, got away with carrying on EVERY possession, was a top 5 flopping foulgrifter in the league, and hijacked an offense the way little Brunson does, Billups would easily be a better scorer than JB.
Chauncey ran an ACTUAL offense in an era of insane defense, was efficient in it, and was an ELITE defensive guard which you could NEVER say about little Jalen. He whipped Kobe so hard, Shaq was traded away.
Knicks in 5
Easily. People don't get it
The Knicks also beat Boston in 2013.
Kawhi, Zion and Butler. All injured. Imagine that. Bad front offices for not trading them last offseason. To keep them this offseason should be automatic firings.
I want to see my Knicks beat Celtics in the East Finals, but probably not.
I ll bet with whoever that Bill watched -10 dallas games
Ingram + some pickS for Mikal Bridges ??????? MIKAL BRIDGES ?????????
celtics vs knicks/? the 6ers are beating the knicks round 1 and going to the ECF
Embiid isn't even fully healthy, dude.

@@jdankerdakeIT DOESNT MATTER THEY PLAYED IF THEY WERE OLD RETIRE OR FAKE AN INJURY ITS ALWAYS GOING TO BE AN EXCUSE
All yall so weird commenting about appearances. How are those the top comments lmao
Khris got hurt? whaaaat?
He had a bad contract
What if Luka didn't make it out of the first round again?
Plenty of young stars at his age did not go out of first round. If we're being technical, the only guy at his age range that went farther is Tatum. While Luka led the Mavs to WCF, and no, Brunson was still NOT the Brunson. Edwards has not done shit yet, SGA has not done shit yet, etc.
So why the nitpick to a specific player?
@leonarronquillo593 people are saying he's a top 5 player and they said if he makes it to the finals he could be the best player. He's already 25, kobe won a ring, LeBron went to the finals, Jordan, even Booker been to the finals at that age. The only time Luka had been out of the first round was when he got injured and Brunson carried. How did Luka do last year with Kyrie? Oh wait.. I think the media needs to pump the brakes on this kid until he actually gets further into the post season
@@Seddysaid Luka won't go anywhere with the current Dallas team. He and Kyrie don't play enough defense.
What happens if the Clippers stay healthy?
Those what if's about Knicks or Mavericks in conference finals... When either or both could easily lose in the first round (roughly a coin toss in my estimation)...
But we shall see.
Also, that part about Luka stealing the best player belt from Jokic... When Luka's resume is basically some exciting regular season moments and that one second round win over the Suns...
Bucks are Cooked
Clippers gave their future up and shai a top player for this lol
Holy shit why does everyone think the nuggets supporting cast is better than the mavericks (and a bunch of teams for the record)
The nuggets without Jokic are awful, Murray is very good, and Gordon is solid, everyone else are just guys, they aren’t talented without Jokic, it’s all Jokic, on paper without him they’re a 17 win team, I don’t understand everyone saying this it’s nonsense

I hope cavs fall apart since jazz own them picks
So this guy thinks that if Luka, who has no real accomplishments, beats the 2 time MVP/finals mvp/champion/ has a better regular season record, would now be the best in the world. What kind of logic is that?
Offensively, Luka is the best player on that area. But yeah, Jokic still no.1
There's something really stiff about Rob Mahoney. Bill has a lot of younger guys in the Ringer to keep the site hip, and Rob is my least favorite of all of them. Really humorless.
Lets stupid than the ones you like?
I could legit see the Celtics losing in the first two rounds by getting outcoached, Tatum getting locked down and shitting the bed for the nth time, and opposing role players going supernova (like every superstar seems to do) against the Celtics.
Apparently you haven’t watched Boston much this season and are still stuck in 2022. That’s typical of a casual though I guess.
@@nocturne311 i have watched every second of every game the last two seasons. i have watched tatum put up garbage clutch numbers and do nothing when it matters. i have seen mazzula lose games and blow leads with his "let them figure it out" high 3pt volume, high offensive variance coaching. i have seen tatum disappear completely in 4Qs again and again. I have seen how easy it is to completely contain Tatum when he and Joe decide it's iso time, which is whenever the game is close. Average coach and the worst offensive superstar are a match made in heaven for losing early because of anemic 4th quarter offense in a low FT playoff environment.
The Celtics play the same way, they're just significantly more talented this season. That may be enough.
Ingram was benched cause he's coming off an injury and is not himself
Ingram and picks for bridges🤣🤣
Yeah, more like Bridges, Claxton and a first for him. Number one option prime BI can get you to a low playoff seed, he really showed up vs Phoenix in 2022. Mikal is a role player
Luka would have to win the chip
Suns lose in round one Vogel has to go. If T Wovles lose they got trade KAT.
Suns have that won in 4-5 games. Those match-ups were not even close. Horrible series for the Wolves.
KD is gonna be looking for reasons to move again
I keep hearing ppl saying “Ingram and picks for Mikal” “Randle and picks for Mikal” In both of those scenarios the nets are getting an upgrade AND picks. Doesn’t make sense to me.
More Rob and way less Bill.

That’s because they aren’t relevant. What question do you want asked? What happens if the Lakers actually manage to win a game against the Nuggets this year instead of being swept? Lol.

Disappointing Dame.
Clips in 5, mavs are overated and trash. easiest schedual to close the season BY FAR. Gafford is always owned by the clippers and kawhi owns luka
“Trash,” huh? Haven’t seen that cliche in a while. I figured even stupid people didn’t use that word any more. If Kawhi is hurt, as he often is, Mavs could sweep Clips. Were you a player, you sure as hell wouldn’t be cocky like that. Mavs are 18-2 over last 20 games. But maybe you are 13 and are just trying to sound like a grownup. If so, you’re not off to a promising start, young un.
Bookmarked. Clippers couldn’t beat 20 year old Luka in 5 games.
Dumbass logic. If your argument is they had the "easiest" schedule in the 2nd part of the season, then it means they have a HARDER in the first part of the season. Yet, the farthest they fell in the standings is 8th seed. Meanwhile, Clippers literally fell to 10th seed at some point in the beginning of the season.
Mavs are overrated and trash? Yeah, because Clippers have sooo much accomplishment as a team, right? Oh yeah, they have not done shit as a franchise and reach Finals. 😂😂😂
