If Brad Stevens loses the series to the Cavs, it is one of the all-time choke jobs

I mean, if [Brad Stevens] loses the series, you've got to chalk that up as one of the all-time choke jobs, right, Hank?

The Celtics did lose the series in 7 games after leading 2-0 and 3-2. Whether it's an 'all-time choke' is subjective.

The Warriors will still win the series against the Rockets

I still think the Warriors are going to win the series, but it's not because of a lack of analytics.

The Warriors defeated the Rockets in 7 games to advance to the NBA Finals.

Kevin Durant is the one guy I want taking a shot when the team needs two points

I think Kevin Durant is the one guy I would want to take a shot when your team needs two points. Just two points to put into overtime.

KD is widely considered one of the greatest pure scorers in NBA history, making this a very defensible opinion.

The Golden State Warriors are now Klay Thompson's team

It's Klay's team now. It has to be his team.

Curry remained the definitive leader and best player on the team; it was never Klay's team.

The Celtics are statistically a better team without Jaylen Brown

Jalen Brown has the second worst plus minus of any five time All Star over the past 10 years... Also the Celtics win more games without Jalen Brown than when he is playing... Last year with, with Jalen Brown, they won 66% of their games without, they won 80%... Their entire career with Jalen Brown. They are 263 and 1 31. That's 67% without Brown. There're 60 and 26, 70%.

The stats provided are fictional/hypothetical within the 2026 setting, but presented as fact to support a 'Ewing Theory' style take.

The Celtics are no longer eligible to be the NBA's team of the 2020s without Jaylen Brown

If the Celtics rebuild and they get back to like the NBA finals, let's say in like 2029, let's say they win another chip in 2029, that's a different team. Like the core is completely different without Jalen Brown. I don't know that you could consider the Celtics to ever even be eligible for team of the 2020s. Because it's gonna be two different iterations of the team.

Inherently subjective criteria for what constitutes a 'team of the decade'.

FIFA must change the rule so a red card does not result in a next-game suspension

I think it's just a, a terrible rule that if you get a red card from a game that you're also suspended for the next game. Yeah. You're already serving your punishment by, by sitting out the rest of that game and your team has to go down one player. Why do you have to sit out the next game?

This is a subjective opinion on sporting rules.
