Betting on the Heat to win the series while up 3-0 was a 'sharp' bet based on expected value and ROI

It was a plus expected value on the bet, by the way... I was getting 10% return on investment. It should have been about 5% given the history of the NBA in three-nothing leads. So it was a sharp bet. I don't regret anything. I'm a process guy, not a results guy.

The Heat did eventually win the series, so the bet paid out, though the 'sharpness' is subjective.

If the Celtics win Game 6 in Miami, Game 7 at home is a guaranteed win

Game six is definitely a tossup. But if you win Game six, game seven at home is ours.

The Celtics won Game 6 in dramatic fashion but then famously lost Game 7 at home to the Heat.

Joe Mazzulla visiting a hospital before Game 5 is 'Gary V adjacent' and psycho behavior

He said watching a girl dying and smiling and enjoying her life, that's what it's really all about. So he gained some perspective. It's kind of some psycho shit, but I guess it's nice... it is Gary V adjacent what he's doing. He's just reminding, he's trying to force himself to work harder by looking at people who are dying.

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.
