Champion · Cleveland CavaliersEvery card opens the series: which games, by how much, where, and what the model made of each one. Card positions and connectors are computed arithmetic, not nested boxes — the card feeding a round sits exactly halfway between the two beneath it, and that is asserted by a test rather than left to the box model.

These are the honest low points, printed with the same prominence the hits get. A record that only shows its wins is an advertisement.
