So I predicted IT would drop 50, and he sure did. I think I was the only person to say that he would do such a thing.
Okay you're right, I never said that.
I did say Wall and Beal would have to play like All Stars though, and while John Wall had a heck of a game, Bradley Beal struggled. They both were terrible from the 3-point line, combining for a 4-19 stat line behind the arc. With all that being said they still had a really good shot at winning the game!! Wall and Beal both missed game winning shots in the final seconds!! But IT was just too much - especially down the stretch in the 4th quarter and overtime.
What's interesting is that after the Celtics lost their first two games against Chicago, IT emailed game clips to Kobe Bryant. It seems Kobe gave him some advice and since then Boston has won 6 straight games. IT is averaging 28.5 points on 45.5 percent shooting with 6.5 assists, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.2 steals in that win streak. When the Black Mamba has advice to give, you listen.
So I think Boston wins this series, but I do not believe it will be a sweep. Tonight in Washington I think Bradley Beal improves from Game 2, and John Wall will be John Wall. This is a MUST WIN for Washington and they know that. They've been tough to beat at home all year. The one stat that I care about for this game is that the home team is 6-0 ATS in the last 6 games between these teams. Give me the home team at -5.5.
**1 POINT! 1 lousy point. That's what the Warriors missed the spread by last game. So yes, I was wrong. Come on though, I was pretty darn close. I honestly don't have much to say for this game. The spread is -13.5 and I'll be happy to take the Warriors with the spread again tonight. It's rare the Warriors fail to cover a spread one game and then do the same the following game. Oh wait, it's super rare because it hasn't happened ALL SEASON. The Warriors are 4-0 ATS after failing to cover the spread the game before. One more shot goes in last game and the Warriors would have covered. Warriors cover this time around.
