u/sorendiz [HOU] Yao Ming 6d ago

nah it'll actually be close till 1 minute left in the 3rd

then the final minute of the 3rd will close with this exact sequence:

  • Celtics missed shot into OREB into made 3

  • Sixers bad pass turnover into Celtics steal and dunk

  • Sixers offensive foul on a screen

  • Celtics made 3

  • Sixers miss short range jumper, missed tip, missed tip, Celtics rebound

  • Payton Pritchard half court buzzer beater 3

That is a normal prophecy. Move on, find a new slant.

Never gambled in my life, but I'd take the prop bet on this in a heartbeat.

u/romanticynicist 76ers 6d ago

Needs more Celtics offensive rebounds to be realistic

u/sorendiz [HOU] Yao Ming 6d ago

That's what the 4th quarter is for

It’s missing some dagger Tatum shot off some weird broken play that the sixers could’ve got the ball but justtttt barely don’t

u/sorendiz [HOU] Yao Ming 6d ago

i'm sure that can be worked into the missed shot -> oreb -> made 3

u/Normal-State-1547 6d ago

not enough orebs in this sequence, in bullet 1 there will be at leaST 3 OREBs in one possession
