C'mon Stephen... admit it...it pains you to start the prediction @ 50/50... you can admit it. lol

lol, I have to think it's not really fifty fifty... one of them has to be the favorite, but in championship games 50-50 is a lot more accurate than it is on regular season games.

Ahhh Stephen, you stole my thunder. I guess I should have asked these questions all at once instead of waiting to ask game by game.
Asking them game by game you probably would see initial odds other than 50-50 after you see who wins which games, any gets injured, home/road teams, etc. But this is cool, most games in this series will be about a 50-50 so nice series of Qs.

What a Game 1! It was tight all the way through even though Kobe had a bad shooting night. I cant wait for this game- hopefully the Celtics can go up 2 games to 0. =)
I am not a big Kobe fan, and I really would like to see KG get a ring after spending so many years on crappy teams.

Hope you enjoyed the ability to wager on them up until final buzzer.

yeah SD, it would be great for KG to get a ring after all those years of loyalty to the wolves. Plus, Kobe only just this year stopped being a complete ballhog (At least I hear he stopped) and he doesn't need another ring yet.

hm, an interesting side note: NBA Live 09 has predicted the lakers in 7. EA Sports titles do usually do a good job, BUT, their NBA game is the least sim like of all their sports games, they always go for the big name players instead of team work, and they are wrong often enough because of that. For example, when Detroit swept a hall of fame starting line up for their first ring of the millennium their game had predicted the opposite, and Madden chose the Patriots to win the super bowl.

That said, they are right a surprising amount of the time.
