Excited for 1st #NBAFinals Game 7 in 9 yrs! 2nd-longest span b/w Finals Game 7s in NBA history (11 yrs from 1994 to 2005). Last 4 have been competitive, albeit more "rock fights" than beautiful basketball. Hoping for a great one! (Big 👏 to Mike Beuoy for all win prob graphs!)

I cannot stress this enough: pairing a 4% funding line with the largest cut in NCI history will devastate the future of cancer research - and patients. We would be turning our backs on decades of progress.

Cool chart. It would be interesting to see how things would compare based on marginal win probability. For example, a one goal lead at halftime in soccer is equivalent to an [x] point lead at halftime in the NBA - equivalent in terms of expected win probability.

If you count a draw as half a win, and using my soccer and NBA win probability calculators: A 1 goal lead at halftime in a soccer game is roughly equivalent to a 9 point lead at halftime in the NBA.

Average "hold time" - the time between the catch and the decision to dribble, pass or shoot - for some of the league's best offensive initiators.
