    I'm really happy for JVG, glad he's getting paid.

    T-Mac on JVG last year.

    Bill Simmons is terrible smh. He doesn't really follow the sports but more the drama aspect of it. He seems sensitive & also makes it personal. Does he know sports?

    He knows basketball as well as anyone from a fandom standpoint, especially the history. He's very tuned into the NBA and with it being such a drama-led league it's hard not to follow the drama.

    I don't really view him as an analyst, but I listen to his podcasts occasionally. Don't really get the sensitive thing, he's admittedly touchy about the Celtics since that's his team but otherwise I don't see it. I can see how some wouldn't like him though. Also don't really pay attention to anything he says with regard to the NFL, and I don't think he follows MLB or NCAAF.
