Quite the turnaround in two seasons, congratulations on the title!

Appreciate it brother. Caesar's been saying it all season but the competition was definitely a lot more lax than I expected. We won because we just had playmakers everywhere and fairly competent defense.

Needed a win, brother. Before I fight for my life in the off-season.

[Captain Canada]

This one might be a little bit too much.

But, it's my chise. And I can do (mostly) what I want.
