The winner of Game 5 in a 2-2 series wins the series 83% of the time.

Here's a fun stat... if you look at it, that that is a correct, but the more important stat is 83% of the time that a series is tied 2-2, that winner of game five goes on to win the series.

This is a statistically verifiable historical fact in the NBA playoffs.

The Heat and Suns will both win their Game 6 matchups.

And honestly, like, I, I would bet that both of these teams that won tonight are probably going to win game six.

The Miami Heat won their Game 6 against the Sixers, but the Phoenix Suns lost their Game 6 to the Dallas Mavericks.

Skip Bayless definitely has burner accounts on Twitter

This is proof. Skip Bayless has burners. I've got a mission now for the next three weeks, which would be to find, skip Bayless's burners and see what the takes that he puts out on the burn. The ones that like, he doesn't think are ready for prime time yet the ones that he's testing out.

This is a widespread belief based on Skip occasionally replying to himself or referencing his own tweets, but it has never been formally proven or 'unmasked' like Kevin Durant's burners.

Roman Anthony is a defensive liability for the Red Sox because everyone is successfully running on him in left field.

Roman Anthony, world baseball classic hero. But he has been, he's become a meme basically. If he can't, he just can't throw anyone out from left field. Everyone's just running on Roman. Shane tried to tell me he was great last year, but he was playing right field. Now he's playing left field... it's just not good.

Whether a player is a 'liability' is subjective, though defensive stats can provide some evidence over time.

[AJ Brown is] gone no matter what... New England. [In my] unbiased mind, he's still gone.

AJ Brown was not traded to the Patriots in the immediate aftermath of these rumors.

UConn can't win the championship

I hope UConn can get it done. I don't think they can win it all.

UConn was in the 2026 Final Four. Resolution depends on whether UConn won the championship.
