Good morning! After a month and a half of playoff basketball and a seven-game Eastern Conference finals, the championship matchup is set. It’s the computers vs. Vegas, err, Celtics vs. Warriors in the 2022 NBA Finals. The models are high on Boston, but Golden State is and has been the title favorite on the sportsbooks. More on that later.
In the NHL, the conference finals began Tuesday with a high-scoring affair. The Avalanche took a 1-0 series lead at home with an 8-6 win over the Oilers and the East Final gets going tonight in New York when the Rangers host the Lightning.
