Seems to be a consensus here...
Rondo, Williams, Nash, in that order is my guess. Unless Lebron dumps 48.
Cut.
Deron Williams, Rajon Rondo, Steve Nash
LeBron is #4, but he’s too far back to overtake these 3. I’m assuming order is NOT important, as it would be unfair. Rondo and Nash play Game 3 today, Deron plays Game 3 tomorrow.
Rondo, Williams, Nash
Anyone of these guys acan put up 15+ assists on any given night, but Rondo has been on fire and he put up 19 assists last game.
I think DWill will get 100 first
Deron Williams
Rajon Rondo
Steve Nash
In that order
Deron Williams
Rajon Rondo
Steve Nash

Rondo, then Nash, then Williams.
Rondo and Nash both play tomorrow; there’s a good chance Rondo goes over 100, but almost no chance Nash, needing 19, does. Then Williams plays on Monday; however, he hasn’t gone for double digit assists in this series after doing it every game against Denver. Therefore, I’m guessing he won’t be able to get 15 against the Lakers. That leaves another game on Tuesday for Rondo and Nash, which I think will be enough to get Nash over the top. Rondo also plays the early game, so even if he weren’t currently in the lead, I would bet on him.
I’m making the assumption that San Antonio can win game 4 at home, so Nash gets another game on Tuesday, as well as Utah winning at home too, to force game 5 in LA. Utah’s good enough at home that I think they can pull out game 4, but if they don’t, it’s entirely possible that Rondo and Nash are joined by LeBron (if the Cavs make a deep enough run), or even nobody.
Winner Annoucement?
When will the winner be announced?
