    I don’t see what’s mind boggling. The NBA wants this going 7. There is absolutely no way that Boston loses on Thursday. Ratings are up a ton from last years finals and they are gonna squeeze everything they can out of it.

    I believe you're right. I'm just so in shock by this series. Boston looks dead... they come back. G.S. looks dead... they come back. Now, Boston looks buried.... what happens next?


    I tend to never get emotionally involved in a wager... or series. This is the first of 2022... I'm emotionally charged. You can't wager on anything with emotions. That's why I didn't wager on Game 5.... and I'll probably sit out Game 6 too.

    I really thought Boston was the "true" balanced team... with just enough talent to beat G.S.

    If Boston loses Game 6.... I guess I'll see most of you guys Week 1 college football. I had a real nice NBA Playoff run.... but... I totally screwed up this Boston series. I want to kick my own ass right now.

    +290 is worth a unit. you can lose more than that in mlb on a daily basis. but -170 is money. no way the celts lose 3 in a row including a closeout at home. i was always confused how folks bet a big horse fave for prices much worse, but not in the major sports leagues. -170 on a situation bet is not a bad bet.

    “-170” to start a sentence is not proper sentence formation. You literally start a sentence with “-170” 5 minutes after you tell someone they can’t properly form a sentence. What a fukking clown.

    We all know the NBA wants this to go 7. That’s been obvious by officiating. No doubt Boston wins game 6, NBA won’t let this not go 7

    So many this will go 7 comments along with Celtics will bounce back at home is why the line is where it’s at.
    But nba players love winning titles on the road so they can celebrate with friends/family there and then have the big celebration coming home. Golden State closes this out in 6. That line is a gift

    First of all, why does TMS look like he's asking for a spanking? Has he been bad while I've been gone?

    If you feel these teams were evenly matched then it makes sense for Boston to win by 11 points. That leads to a "statistical" parity in the series and confirms all of you smart wizards predictions prior to the series. Boston hasn't held Golden State to under 100 and although Unders are the preferred plays, I'd look to the Over if you like Boston. The reverse side would say that Golden State to win by 2 points in a close game is also something to consider where the stats would bear themselves out.

    I still stand by my comments that as a fan of the NBA the series doesn't look like a 7 game classic, however if the goal is to setup an amazing game 7 then perhaps that is all that matters in the end. Maybe the players are just resting and preparing for a masterpiece.

    I haven't bet anything and I'm not recommending but my view is a Boston by 11, Over play or a GS ML where they win by two. Good luck

    expect ref blowback after that poole flop. that was embarrassing to the league, you can be sure tony brothers won't be around and they'll take care of the situation. that was a black eye to the league. reminds me of the day neymar in the world cup ended up flopping around 5 times. nobody ever respected the guy again.

    this is as disgusting as it gets in the nba. a lot of people work hard and spend their hard earned money to see a basketball game, not a circus. and give credit not only to poole, but that corrupt pile of garbage tony brothers, who has been fixing games for decades.

    How about Gary Payton Jr. tripping over the line pained on the floor and they called a foul.

    The nba won’t do a thing. They’ve been doing this for years and people still watch and the league has more fans than it’s ever had. People always say they won’t watch but they will.

    yeah it's not like it used to be in the days of stern and donaghy. You used to see this every year, it's more rare than it is common these days.

    tony brothers is definitely a corrupt official from back in the day. look at the scowl on this guy. can you imagine dealing with this a ole.

    when the public was notified of the ref assignments for the day, there was a reaction in vegas to the under. i found that interesting. i'm sorry i didn't do it.

    Shot, one stat that might point that direction. BOST now a good bit higher on Eff FG% for the series.

    This Boston team might just be filled w/ frustration. Often looked like the better team. Will regret Gm4, when they had every reason to win.

    +310 did not make sense mathematically
    if you cap Game 6 and Game 7, add them, it was overjuiced.
    Now it's more accurate.

    yeah i got it at +300, it didn't make sense and got it before it lowered. but, if it doesn't hit the difference doesn't matter

    most people agree boston has the better talent. it's a question on whether they show up and play like the boston celtics can play. if they do, they will win the series. last game they showed up looking like garbage, game 6 first 5 minutes they had 4 points

    • Zarba served as the crew chief in Golden State's 19-point win over Boston in Game 2 of the NBA Finals
    • Guthrie was a referee in the Celtics' Game 3 win over the Warriors
    • Goble was a referee in the Celtics' Game 1 win over the Warriors in this series
    • Among Zarba's NBA Finals experiences is the Warriors' title-clinching win over the Cavaliers in Game 6 of the 2015 NBA Finals

    If you're a Celtics fan, what you want to see is Scott Foster in game 7. Dubs fan, you want to see Tony Brothers game 7.

    Of course that's because the Celtics will win game 6
