Bah, changing my prediction to the Lakers taking the 7. I think the Wolves can beat the Thunder or Pels again.

With Rudy I truly thought it was basically a coin flip, but I just don't like the matchup anymore.

Ant is going to go off for 50 and then get revenge on the Grizzlies for last year.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Changing my vote to LeBron on threes simply because it is the only way the Lakers only hope.

I answered the 3s made question assuming it was cumulative for the Play-In. Is that what it meant, or did it actually mean highest single game total of made threes?

Now. There's only a handful of potential matchups. You can even hedge your bet and predict an impossible scenario (like Miami winning game 1 and game 3).

I clarified in an edit, its ONLY for Tuesday's game. So the single matchup. That was a fuckup of bad wording on my part. Edits are allowed until Tuesday tipoff though.

I'm claiming the point if Ant hits four threes on Friday because I didn't see that you changed the question and was intentionally hedging my bets with my original answer since I assumed it was a gotcha question.

He's probably too hurt to do it though so it won't matter.

Yeah I definitely picked Ant because I thought he'd play two games. But given that I was wrong about literally everything, and also he still might not match LeBron, I am okay with jobbing.
