Go Celts. I think they are a smart bet tonight. NBA gotta have its Game 7.

There hasn't been a Game 7 in the Finals since 2016. Since 2000 there have been 8 series that have ended in 6, compared to just four going to 7 games.

This conspiracy theory that the NBA rigs the Finals just doesn't align with the facts.

All that being said, I do expect the Celtics to play their best game of the series tonight.

There's a pattern of assigning team friendly refs (like tonight for the C's) to attempt to even things out and extend.

Celts haven't really showed the grit required to get it done. I'd love to be wrong, but I think this is the end.

I don’t watch b-ball, but I follow sports. I’m pulling for the Warriors because I think KD is kind of a douche, and I have to think championships before and after his time there really diminish his legacy.

Well at least KD took the biggest L tonight so there’s that.
