I think halftime looks like a real likelihood post 2006.

Can you provide the date of some of these games?

Are you looking at games with 50 point margin of victories? If so, what about Mavs vs. Jazz from last year, or Clippers vs. Dallas this year.

Mississippi Delta Blues
Texas Blues
Alabama Blues
St. Louis Blues
Piedmont Blues
Georgia Blues
Memphis Blues

Largest Margins of Victory in NBA Games - Top 50

This list shows the games with largest point differences in NBA history, in the Regular Season and the Playoffs.

That's a good start. If you take the ESPN win probability from that list, for the games where it's available, which one is the fastest to 90%, and 99%?

Maybe just start with the first few games with the largest margin, that are available.

 

[nuraman00]

So from your findings, can you list which game was fastest to 90%, and fastest to 99%?

Put a screen shot of the probability % chart, and the date of the game. Thanks. I think the date wasn't clear, in your above posts.

Is there a specific CD you are referring to?

Or was this a mix CD / digital playlist that was given to you?

Blind Willie McTell....the most famous Georgia bluesman is there.
Blind Willie Johnson out of Texas
Mississippi John Hurt was from Avalon which isn;t in The Delta but I can see this one.

Instead of those guys, where is Willie Brown, Kid Bailey, Charley Taylor?
