When you are giving a 'have fun' speech at halftime of a finals game, you have already lost

It's a shame that Jason Kidd couldn't give another halftime speech where he said, everyone remember to have fun out there. When you're given the half fun speech, you lost. I don't think that you can come back with a a half fun speech.

The Mavericks lost Game 1 and eventually the series, making this a prescient critique of the team's energy and coaching approach.

The Celtics will beat the Mavericks in six games

Yeah, we're thinking Celtics and Six. The, the Mavs aren't gonna go away. They're gonna, they're gonna give us their best shot, but, but it's, it might be Celtics and five.

The Celtics won the NBA Finals in 5 games, not 6.

The Mavericks were stupid to wear their black jerseys in Game 1

I still think that the Mavs were stupid to wear these jerseys in game one. I don't know if they did that because Luca looked very slim to them. I was thinking blue. These jerseys feel like the jerseys you wear for Star Wars night in like early February.

This is a subjective aesthetic opinion about team uniforms.

LeBron James strategically leaked the Dan Hurley news to overshadow Game 1 of the NBA Finals

The tradition of LeBron or his team looking to overshadow game one of the NBA finals continues... he really is the best at it... there's no doubt that he planned this whole Dan Hurley thing for having it all day on game one.

While the timing is suspicious, the intent is subjective and impossible to definitively prove, though Hurley did eventually turn down the job.

Garrett Bolles should catch a pass before he retires

I want to be able to bet on Garrett Bolles to have one reception in every game. Because I feel like Sean Payton is going to try to get him that touch. He definitely will because he doesn't want him to retire as the guy who never touched the ball.

It requires Garrett Bolles to record a touch before the end of his career; that has not been resolved here.

The Eagles' offense might be better without A.J. Brown

I actually think that the offense might be better without A.J. Brown.

Whether Philadelphia's offense performs better without A.J. Brown is a season-level comparative claim and is not reliably resolved here.

The Chargers should eliminate their kicking game and go for it every time

The Chargers should just not have a punter. They should not have a kicker. They shouldn't even have like a long snapper on the team. Use those positions on somebody else and you're just—burn the boats. You're just going for it all the time. Fuck it. Who cares? Right? Season's over. Might as well try to score some points.

This is a deliberately satirical roster-building proposal, not a prediction that can be objectively graded.
