Folks. We are BACK. Been a while since I gave out a pick here but I am airport drunk and I am ready to ROLL. A lot has changed in my life since I gave out my last pick. I saw coach Nini in car lot, I applied to grad school, and big bootie mix 21 came out. Huge developments all around. Has my nba acumen increased you might ask? I don’t think so but fingies crossed. Let’s ride.

THE PICK

CELTICS +3.5 VS WARRRRIORS

I wish I could do a “so and so isn’t walking through that door” thing here but the warriors unfortunately still have the best players in franchise history (minus 🐍 boy) on the roster. This is entirely a betting analytics pick. 94% of bets are on the warriors and 83% of the money is. Might be the other way around but like I said, airport drunk. (Airport drunk enough to tell the gf I’m proud of her for buying a scarf for the queens bday or whatever today is). But ya. Celtics +3.5. Curry a 29% shooter for his career when Mahcus Smaht is giving him the clamps. Klay played well last game so he’ll probably suck this game. Celtics beat 3.5 here. In the words of Vic Mensa “you boys smokin dirt, we smokin Larry Bird”. And in the words of Larry Bird as portrayed in Winning Time, if you pick the dubs then “shut the #%{+ up”
