    If the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics is correct, there are parallel universes where the Spurs won in '13.

    We do live in those, and this one, simultaneously. When the wave function split, different "versions" of us went on living in the different possible states of reality in parallel.

    It's a widely accepted idea in theoretical physics. People smarter than you and I seriously advocate this idea. But notice how I said if the many-worlds interpretation is correct. I'm not assuming one way or the other.

    I'll help you out here. If you wanted to make a counterpoint, your best move would be to say that bringing up the many-worlds theory is trivial because it applies to literally everything. Sure, there's a world where the Spurs won in '13, but there's also a world where basketball was never invented, a world where the Axis Powers won WW2 (see The Man in the High Castle), and a world where flying pink unicorns named Barbara are the rulers of the universe. So given all of that, it's arbitrary to selectively talk about one particular world with the outcomes I desire.

    In a world where you make that argument...I would agree. But I would point out that some worlds have a higher probability than others, and the wave function would split in that direction more often across the cloud of possibilities.
