Well, it’s come to this. History making time. In the 567* completed best-of-seven series in NBA history, never once has the road team won the first 6 games. And this time it is happening in one of the strangest seasons ever due to COVID. We don’t know when this will happen again. We don’t know IF this will happen again. The world deserves for this thing to be finished off right with the road team taking all 7. Time to deliver. Must win game.
