Which series goes 7?

They could all go 7. The scheduling is weird. 3 game 7’s on Sunday and one on Monday. For some reason there is no games on Saturday. Does the NBA want no games on Saturday and Monday is the question. 

Jimmy Butler is the strangest player in the NBA. He played the Bucks with an edge and intensity like his family’s life was on the line if they didn’t advance. Intense, crazy energy and will to win.

This series vs the Knicks and particularly tonight. His body language was off, didn’t care about winning tonight, just got in a solid cardio workout and did everything he could to ensure a Knicks cover. That’s what occurred on the court in game 5.

He has a history of mentally checking out in the playoffs and I’m not sure what to expect from him in game 6. Maybe he stinks it up again and dogs it. I could see that series going 7. Not betting it.

Celtics look cooked to me. This isn’t your ordinary 3-2 series with favored team down having game 7 at home and confidence to win Gm 6 on road. This team isn’t coached properly. They’re not confident and don’t have the look. 

LONNIE WALKER is the only reason Warriors are not up 3-2 in this series. HGG James has sold his soul to the devil 100x over. I’ll be on the Warriors small in game 6 mostly because I don’t trust the officiating crew and expect 25-35 FT attempts for the Lakers. Called fairly? We’ll have a game 7. No doubt.

I don't think Celtics/76ers is going 7... I think Philly wraps it up in 6. However, I'd bet on both WC series making it to game 7.

Suns / Den seems most likely, just because the Suns are at home in game 6. 

Heat / Knicks seems least likely... to be honest, I'll be shocked if the Heat don't close that out at home. Knicks are in way over their heads at this point... they are totally out-classed by every other team in the playoffs. If anyone other than the Heat were playing them, it would be over for sure.

Good stuff 

I suspect we will get Tony Brothers in LA for game 6. Brothers, for all his faults, is a company man and will hopefully give the Warriors a fair shake. And if it goes 7 we might see Foster again. 

I agree about everything you say about the Celtics and their coach but I think they bounce back tonight only because this team is at its best with their backs against the wall and Doc’s teams have a history of chocking. 

I think they all go 7!
