Heart Rate Monitor
This chart looks like a direct monitor of my heart rate throughout this series, as the Celtics are now one game away from completing an epic comeback in the eastern conference finals. From down 0-3, the value of a $100 future sunk to under $20, but this team has refused to die. After 2 wins, the C’s got that futures value back to a respectable value of $197.
Thrilling Game 6
The real test game with Game 6 Saturday Night in Miami. Boston played well for most of the game, but a typical collapse in the final minutes led to one of the most remarkable sequences in NBA history. Jimmy Butler was fouled on a wild three point attempt to turn a 2 point deficit into a 1 point lead for Miami. With 3 seconds on the clock, the Celtics forced a contested three which rimmed out, only for Derrick White to crash the boards and tip home the game winner with .1 seconds left.
Celtics Back to +120 to Win the Title
It was as dramatic an ending as one could imagine, and absolutely devastating for Miami, who thought the game was over after the initial miss by Smart. After 3 straight W's, Celtics future bettors are back in the money, with the current value sitting at $333. Personally, I am letting this ride out as I don’t see any way the Celtics lose a Game 7 at the Garden. See you Monday Night in Boston.
