Sorry for posting a link to Bleacher Report, but this will make the game interesting tonight... http://www.sportingnews.com/nba/new...olves-trail-blazers/bt6b53fa4pzf10d354to01vvh
The Blazers should run a game show in the 2nd quarter. "Mo, if you don't shoot, you get 500k. If you take a three and miss it, you lose everything. If you take a 3 and make it, you get $1.2M (up to whatever the tax line is)."
"They can also make their money back by having a $20 raffle where 10 winners get 1% of what Mo gets." From 0 to 12k.
Sadly this used to be the case. But lately regulars decided to say F it and have been making new threads for every loose stool they have.
Nothing wrong with Bleacherreport when they're actually reporting news - it's their analysis, and worse yet pretend-analysis that sucks. Oh, and their clickthroughs are the worst.
Yes we know how it all turned out but still.... here is an article on it. http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2017/4/13/15285322/moe-harkless-500k-bonus-no-threes-blazers-nba
If he would have attempted a 3....he would have missed. How many times have we seen a professional golfer tighten up and miss an easy ass putt with huge money riding on it. No freaking way would someone like Harkless make it with all that pressure. So why try? Hell Dame choked on 2 free throws when he tried to reached 60. And he was HOT at the time.
