What we got right:

Los Angeles Lakers at Golden State Warriors:

We almost nailed the score exactly, as the Warriors beat the Lakers 123-109. Russell Westbrook played better than we thought he would, but the Lakers got no help from their bench, outside of Kendrick Nunn. The Warriors bench outscored the Lakers bench 41-24 and that was the big difference in the ball game.

What we got wrong

Philadelphia 76ers at Boston Celtics:

We thought the Celtics would have a tough time getting started with their new coach and all the drama surrounding the team, but we didn’t count on Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown combining for 70 points. This game was tied at halftime, but the Celtics pulled away with a big third quarter, outscoring the 76ers 35-25.
