QuadrigaCX CEO Gerald Cotten fake-died in India to steal everyone's Bitcoin

This guy is alive. He has all your Bitcoin. If you have Bitcoin with him, I'm sorry, but he's fake dead and you're shit out of luck. He went to India and now he's dead? That is the best place to die if you're going to fake it. He is whale fucking with John McAfee.

Extensive investigations by the FBI, RCMP, and journalists (including the documentary 'Trust No One: The Hunt for the Crypto King') have found no evidence Cotten is alive, despite the strange circumstances of his death in India.

LeBron James screwed over the Lakers by trying to tamper for Anthony Davis

LeBron screwed the Lakers. LeBron screwed the Lakers... This was like the most blatant act of tampering of all time... And now everyone hates him on the Lakers. And it's hilarious.

The 2018-19 Lakers were indeed in turmoil after the trade deadline, missing the playoffs despite having LeBron. The chemistry was widely reported as toxic.

The Pelicans' refusal to trade Anthony Davis was a battle of owners reasserting power over players

The ownership decided this is where it stops. This is where it all stops. It was a battle of millionaires versus people of wealth. And the people of wealth said, you know what? We care more about football than we do about the NBA.

The Pelicans did indeed hold firm, eventually trading him in the offseason for a massive haul (including Lonzo, Ingram, and picks), proving that waiting worked.

The Pelicans were smart to wait on the Anthony Davis trade to see the draft pick order and negotiate with the Celtics

The Pelicans did the smart thing, and they were just waiting to see who has what pick in the draft. And also, they can negotiate with the Celtics now, too. It was a smart move by the Pelicans [to] wait and see where all the picks land, see if the Celtics want to offer a better offer and not just trade Anthony Davis because he wants to be traded.

The Pelicans eventually traded Davis to the Lakers in the summer for a massive haul including Brandon Ingram, Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart, and three first-round picks, which was widely seen as a better return than the mid-season offers.

The Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.
