Seriously, would you have taken Raptors for the win? No points.

I had a logistics issue.

Jazz have been heating up and Raptors have been cold (albeit mostly on the road); Raptors won and covered; but it wasn't that safe a bet. I picked the Jazz for the sake of picking, but it's a game I would've avoided on a parlay.

Bucks and Nuggets are the two I liked the most; but Knicks won the first half by a point. They were due for a decent game at some point; but I expect the Nuggets to still turn it on in the second half at home.

I think is going to win the mvp

You talking about Kawhi? 45 pts and 1 ast? Even when Jordan was ball hogging like crazy he could find a random guy open a few times on a jump pass.

Props to Don McLean on the Clipper broadcast. They had the stat about Harden's recent numbers. "I don't like watching Harden play".

DK never had a efficient game like kawhi

True enough; but Kawhi's lack of playmaking for others is still there when he's inefficient.

What? Jordan is a career 50% shooter.

Weird game. Nuggets honestly played fine for the most part, but Knicks played this game like it was their Super Bowl. We dominated the 4th quarter and I was never really worried but New York came to play

They should have played the Bertans clone more, Kanter is a useless turnstile tbh

Maybe Nuggets playing down to the compe ion some. Spurs would do that back when they were more dominant and give a few games away.

McLean the former MIP?

Damn that guy is still around

He better be careful, especially if Harden will be a free agent anytime soon. He can ask Bruce Bowen about that.
