No, that's not Kobe Bryant's paycheck. That is the estimated NET revenue the NBA stands to make off of every game in the Finals. As we know, either team needs four games to win. The least amount of games that can be played. This is called a sweep. The maximum amount of games they can play is seven, hence the term 'best out of seven'.
Well, I coined it here first. Any decent seven game series is now called a 'jackpot'. If the Celtics and Lakers go to seven games, they are going for a 'jackpot'.
It's appropriate in three ways.
1. NBA makes close to a billion dollars off of the series.
2. It's anyone's game to win.
3. It's the BIG PAYOFF!
Jackpot.
The sweep is unlikely. The 'jackpot' is most likely the outcome. That seems to be a contradiction, BUT, every jackpot has a guaranteed payout eventually. Only one can win.
Jackpot.
The series so far is going according to form. Boston held the fort at home (just like we did to those tinny British), now we go to LA to see who IS the better team. If LA wins three in LA, we're back to square one and nobody knows. If Boston wins one or more... HAHA LALAs!
LA will win all three. The Celtics will win the next one and then Game Seven in Boston.
Either way, Jackpot. For the NBA.

I say Ray Allen goes off you 40 and C's win tonight
I'm feeling like 6 is more likely. But if Kobe keeps pouring in 36 a game . . .
