The Cavs-Warriors rubber match is the NBA Finals we need

It is the Cavs, Warriors, the finals everyone wants to see, the finals we need. It's the rubber match.

The 2017 Finals did indeed feature the Cavs and Warriors, completing their third consecutive meeting (the rubber match).

LeBron's 7 straight finals don't count because they were in the East

Asterix, asterix. They're all against the East. True. So let's not crown them just yet.

While LeBron did play in the East, 7 straight finals is historically unique; the take is a subjective value judgment.

LeBron James threw Game 3 against the Celtics to help the Celtics' ticket sales

LeBron James threw Game 3 just so that all of Boston had to buy tickets for Game 5 so that he could buttfuck them in public.

This is a conspiratorial interpretation of a single game loss; it's practically impossible to prove but LeBron did go on to destroy Boston in Game 5.

The 2017 Finals will be the best coached series ever because of Ty Lue and Mike Brown

I think one thing we can all agree on is between Lou and Mike Brown, this is probably going to be the best coached NBA Finals of all time.

The 2017 Warriors were historically dominant, but few analysts would credit Mike Brown or Ty Lue with 'all-time' coaching performances over legendary tacticians.

The Nashville Predators winning the Cup will be forgotten like the Hurricanes or Ducks wins

I'm rooting for the Predators simply because when teams like the Predators win championships with like their piss yellow uniforms and weird cities for hockey, people just tend to forget that that season never happened. So it's like when the Ducks won, it's like, I mean, did they win? I don't even know. I can't remember.

The Predators lost the 2017 Stanley Cup Final to the Penguins, so they didn't get the chance to be 'forgotten' as winners.

Grit is an inherent trait you are born with

Grit, I mean, I feel like it's something that you just have to have in you. I wouldn't say it's something that you learn. I think you can adapt to it over time. But I think it's something that you're going to go regardless of the circumstance.

This is a philosophical opinion on personality traits.

The Bengals will go 16-0 in 2017

We're going to win every game. [16-0 guaranteed].

The Bengals went 7-9 in 2017, failing significantly to hit 16-0.

Tiger Woods' career is officially over

Tiger I listen all you tiger fanboys out there just i want you to do something for me right now sit down listen up you ready it's over. It's over.

This was famously proven wrong when Tiger Woods won the Tour Championship in 2018 and the Masters in 2019.

Brock Osweiler helped his teams by keeping the defense on the field

The Texans had a really good defense. And so Osweiler did a great job of keeping their best unit on the field. [Same with the Broncos]. Brock Osweiler knows how to have his team play to its strengths by always keeping the defense on the field.

Hot TakeFootballHotSarcastic
Literally incorrect; having the defense on the field for long periods is a disadvantage, but the sarcastic 'spin' makes it a memorable bad take.

Russell Wilson should become a pharmacist to write Adderall prescriptions for the Seahawks defense

What if Russell goes back to school in the off-season? Here's what you do, Russ. Go to school, become a pharmacist. And then just write unlimited [Adderall] prescriptions.

Russell Wilson did not become a pharmacist.

Being a Resident Assistant in college is a terrible job

Don't be an RA. Don't fucking do it. Listen, if you need the free housing... Go work the streets, but don't be an RA. An RA is worse than a mall cop.

This is a subjective lifestyle/social opinion.
