The Warriors would have made eight straight NBA Finals if not for injuries
I'm willing to make a giant excuse for the Warriors for the two out of the eight years that they did not make the finals. It's all because of injuries. Like the Warriors should have been in the finals eight years in a row.

View episodeReturning to the NBA Finals is the crowning achievement for the Warriors' core
This feels like the crowning achievement for this group, to be able to go back there [the NBA Finals] after all the injuries, after KD came and left after guys are in and out and they've rebuilt themselves with that core of Klay, Steph and Draymond, and Steve Kerr there.
If the Warriors rebound the ball well, they cannot be beaten
I feel like if they rebound, they can't be beat. And low-key, the Warriors are pretty good rebounding team. They're not the soft Warriors that people used to hate on a few years ago. I think they were like top five or top six in the NBA and rebounds this year.
The Heat lost Game 5 because fans were stuck in concession lines, leaving the arena empty for the Celtics' 'shoot around' second half
I have a theory... The reason why the Heat lost on Wednesday night... halftime happens and then we come back. The arena is empty. The fans are all in the building... but most are stuck, still waiting in line for food... so the Celtics get opening possession and with an empty arena, it's basically shoot around for them.

View profileThe 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 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.
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?
