In this episode of Politically Uncorrect, the crew dives into the uncomfortable but honest question: Is it okay to be realistic in competition?
From childhood memories of feeling outmatched to the brutal awareness of being at a disadvantage, we unpack the mindset behind competitive inferiority and self-awareness.
Then, we shift to the NBA Finals—specifically Tyrese Haliburton’s injury and whether the real “what if” of the series isn’t his absence in game 7, but what if he missed the Game 1 game-winner?
We show love to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and what might be one of the greatest seasons we’ve ever witnessed, plus the quiet rise of his co-star Jalen Williams.
Alex Caruso calls his championship with OKC “a real ring,” and yeah—we’ve got thoughts. We also celebrate Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s surprising decision to veto the THCA ban, and take a quick detour to the Middle East where someone we never expected is criticizing Trump.
Plus: Kevin Durant’s shocking trade to the Houston Rockets, Emmanuel Acho’s interesting “legacy score” take, and a heated debate about how the NBA can shorten its season without sacrificing the game.
