NBA

[Spargo]

Wow, thought we would struggle to win a game this series but Boston have gone cold in both games

We'll win by 40 in game 3, and think all our problems are solved

Not quite 40, it did get out to as much as a 31 pt lead in the 3rd before winning by 22.
2-1 is whole lot better than 3-0

[Spargo]

OKC tie it at 2-2 with Denver
Pacers up 41 at the half, already leading the Cavs 2-1

[DOC]

And win by20.

3-1.

Celtics tomorrow at 9am in a must win game.

Fixed league

The Mavs land the 2025 #1 pick, a 1.8% chance, after trading Luka Doncic to the Lakers for pennies on the dollar.

What the Mavs got in exchange for a top 5 player in the NBA was well unders. But now it makes sense.

C’s 11 up at the half.

Don't forget the Pelicans winning the lottery in 2019 with a 6% chance when AD got traded

Massive quarter by the Knicks has them up by 3. Dig deep or I fear it may be over.

[Jim05]

What a second half by the Knicks to go 3-1 up.
Tatum appeared to do his Achilles with a few minutes remaining and didn’t look good

Think you have to naive to not think this is a very dodgy look

Shame about Tatum, did it the same way Dame did the other week. Was a high quality game tho, always good to see the Celtics lose though. That 3rd qtr of Tatum V Brunson was as good as it gets. As much as everyone hates them, it is good for the league with the Knicks around the mark

no doubt the odds are very low that it occurs, but there are odds there that it can occur.
Thats the beauty about the lottery

I think the NBA not televising the lottery just adds to the conspiracy theories

[MW]

lets be honest, there isnt a sporting organisation in the world that is not somehow manipulating their system to give advantage to markets/teams that make them more money.

Tatum - ruptured Achilles tendon

Pacers by 3 midway through the 3rd

Pacers close it out in 5
I can’t see the Knicks (or Celtics) getting close to Indiana in the ECF

[Corona Man]

Yes Cers!

[MW]

This is going to sound like a strange thing to say about this guy, but Anthony Edwards has matured as a player this playoffs. What is staggering is he is only 23...seems like he has been around for much longer.

If we get past you guys I think we can take the Pacers to at least 6 games
