Boston playing Milwaukee twice in a row on the road on ESPN is odd.

Brooklyn is now 2-1 to win the NBA title and the L.A. Lakers are 4-1. That's the worst their odds have been this season.

Lakers looked bad w/o Lebron vs Suns last night. Nets were not all that great winning vs Wizards. Times are strange.

Apparently Steph Curry is out for another week or so. I think the Hawks are good enough of a team to beat the Warriors without a Steph Curry and Klay Thompson
