My full breakdown on the Cavs- Knicks.
After hours of studying the Cavs and Knicks series on my balcony, I have finally made up my mind. I’m doubling down on the Cavs to win in 7.
There hasn’t been a single moment throughout this series where I thought to myself “the Knicks are so much better than the Cavs.” The Cavs just aren’t hitting shots. That’s it.
What I’ve seen from the Cavs makes me believe they will win 4 straight. It’s only a 3-0 lead.
Brunson was walking around with his head down, not trusting his teammates. You could see it in his eyes as if he knows this series is slipping away from them.
And it wasn’t just Brunson. The body language of the entire Knicks roster told the story. These guys are not built for big moments.
Everyone thinks the Cavs quit but I actually think that was their plan all along. They got the Knicks exactly where they want them.
And now all the pressure is on New York. This is a franchise with a reputation for choking and they know it. One more loss and they could become the first team in NBA history to blow a 3-0 lead. That weight doesn’t go away.
Cavs win tonight and we have ourselves a Game 7 at the Garden. Don’t let us get one.

Currently on my balcony overlooking the beach rewatching Cavs vs Knicks film and analyzing body language before Game 4. I see something nobody else sees. Stay tuned.

Just spent two weeks at Florida beaches.
Here’s what I observed:
- Tons of kids
- Economy is in full bloom. Lots of yachts in the water
- Most people are obese
- Restaurants packed and it’s not even June
- People drive slower than people in Seattle…
- Tons of Christians
- Gen Z definitely has not given up alcohol. Local beach bars were insanely packed. Drinks flowing!
- Not a single Tesla
- Zero tattoos
- Lots of new construction including thousands of beachfront custom homes
- Crazy high number of families using an expensive photographer to do beach photoshoots
Recession cancelled!

The Knicks will have had the least contested NBA Finals run in a very long time.
They’re either one of the best teams the league has seen in a while or the East is just totally inept.
Knicks have looked great, I want to give them credit — they’re a Finals caliber team — but I’m going to go with the latter given how they literally have not been challenged.

With all due respect, winning a HS state championship holds less and less weight every year to me.
Not because winning is easy, because it’s not.
I understand people are only doing what they’re allowed to do, I get it. But because roster movement, transfers, recruiting culture, and talent stacking have completely changed what high school football looks like.
Beyond grateful I grew up in what felt like the golden age of HS football. It created morals and values in me that I still carry today.

@jenteach13 But you know what your salary will be and still chose the profession. Blame yourself.

Knew the hate was coming with this one. But pay is one piece of the puzzle to fixing education.
So let me be specific, since general apparently doesn't land.
I arrived at my Arizona district with 23 years of experience. They put me on step 5. $42,000. For that, I taught multiple sections of high school Spanish with 44 students per period.
The following year, they changed the policy. New hires could get credit for up to ten years. They refused to apply it to anyone already there. I asked. They told me to my face.
Meanwhile, teachers are required to hold a degree, maintain a state certification, and complete ongoing professional development, often graduate coursework, out of pocket. Many end up with a Master's degree they paid for themselves, to keep a job that paid them $42,000.
Name one other profession that requires that level of education and ongoing credentialing and pays what teachers get paid.
I'll wait.
And here's what nobody wants to say out loud: when you pay teachers like this, you lose the pipeline. Smart, driven people look at those numbers and choose something else. Can you blame them?
You want better teachers in the classroom? Pay matters. It always has. The shortage isn't a mystery. It's math.
The people complaining loudest about teacher quality are often the same ones opposed to paying teachers more.
The full story is in my Substack for anyone actually interested in learning something today. Otherwise, keep disparaging teachers. You've proved my point for me.

Nobody talks about what a teacher gives up to do this job at this salary in this economy. Every single year.

I’m in favor of raising teacher pay. But I’m unclear how this will “fix” education: is it that teachers are not working hard but will for a raise? Or that higher salaries will lure capable people from law, medicine, tech, etc.?

You want to fix education? Pay teachers more.

Serious Question: The alcohol industry has lost $830 billion in the last 4 years, because Gen Z is not drinking. Why do you think they aren’t drinking?
