The Celtics are simply the better team and the Warriors cannot beat them

I have now like game three, show me that the best, the best version of the Celtics, the warriors can not be. I'm being honest. That's just my honest take on it.

Incorrect. The Warriors won the next three games in a row to win the series 4-2.

There will definitely be a Game 6 in the NBA Finals

I do think there will be a game six, unfortunately. Very scared about game four.

Correct. The series went to 6 games, with the Warriors winning in Boston.

The Celtics would have won by now if they didn't constantly throw up stinkers and let down in the third quarter

The Celtics, like what they have gotten better at over the season... they still do it to an extent it happened in the third quarter as they just we'll just let down. And all of a sudden they have terrible runs... they just throw up stinkers. I think that's been, it's been the most, it was like this in Milwaukee series, like this, the Miami series.

The Celtics did have a tendency to lose leads and play inconsistent stretches, famously blowing several big leads in this specific Finals series before ultimately losing to the Warriors.

The Warriors are impossible to beat if Steph Curry and Klay Thompson both have a night where they're 'on' from start to finish

If those two guys make all their shots, if they get to a night where they're both on, then they're pretty much impossible to beat. It doesn't matter how good the Celtics can play... but they're not going to be able to do that. Like that's not, it's impossible for them to sustain that type of basketball.

While Klay was inconsistent, Steph had a legendary series (including 43 points in Game 4) that ultimately proved the Warriors were not only beatable but capable of outplaying the Celtics' defense.

Ben Johnson ran the illegal play wrong on purpose

I think Ben Johnson ran it wrong on purpose to put something on tape that then he can run a variation off of it.

This is an interpretation of coaching intent that cannot be definitively verified from the game broadcast.

The Bears are good

I think the Bears are good.

Whether the 2026 Bears are 'good' is ultimately a season-level subjective assessment.

The NFL is testing its way toward Tuesday and Wednesday games

Florio basically was like the NFL is testing out putting teams three times in a row on primetime because we're going to get to a point where they start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games. And I believe it.

This can be evaluated if the NFL introduces regular Tuesday or Wednesday games as described.
