Joel Embiid has successfully shifted his career narrative with this series win

I think Joel Embiid's narrative is shifting. Shifting but not [yet] shifted. ... Shifting-ING is different than -ED. Narrative shifted for sure. ... He's now shown that he's not like just a regular season guy. He's not a choker.

The narrative around Embiid has historically been centered on second-round failures and injuries; beating a -900 favorite Celtics team in Game 7 certainly impacts that.

Outcome of the Romo legal case is pending.

The MLB is almost certainly headed for a lockout during the next collective bargaining agreement negotiations

The lockout is probably gonna happen. Nothing's gonna change. I think it's almost a hundred percent that there will be a lockout for at least a period of time.

Will be resolved during the next MLB CBA negotiation period.
