NBA FINALS
To be honest I'm not watching any game of the Finals. But the Warriors are really good right now so Warriors in 7 I guess.
I don't really care who wins at this point, Supersonics in 1.
Conference Finals
4 Teams Left. Only 2 of them will make it to the NBA Finals. Only 1 of those 2 will win it all. Who goes to the NBA Finals
Celtics vs Heat (Heat Lead 1-0)
Both teams played incredibly well during the conference semifinals. Only one of these will survive this round. The Celtics played incredibly well while being one game away from elimination. The Celtics’ team MVP from that round? Jason Tatum (AKA Giannis’ Father). The Heat dominated the Sixers consistently. The Heat’s team MVP from that round? Jimmy Butler (he really wants a ring).
Game 1 Reaction:
The Heat did incredible during most of the game. Butler had another 40+ point game. Herro, Bam, Vincent, and others were also solid. That 3rd quarter definitely helped them. The Celtics did good but not as good as the Heat. Unsurprisingly Tatum and Brown had great games. RW3 and Pritchard also played well. Unfortunately, the Celtics did not do enough to contain Jimmy Butler. Don’t expect this series (or the Western Series) to end in a sweep.
Who do I have winning? The Miami Heat. In 6. The Celtics will take Game 2. Games 3 and 4 will go to the Heat. Game 5 to the Celtics. And finally, Game 6 to the Heat.
Warriors Vs Mavs
Both teams also had solid performances during the conference semifinals. The Warriors managed to make it past the Morantless Grizzlies. The Warrior’s team MVP from that round? Steph Curry (except for Game 5 Curry). The Mavs made the Phoenix Suns look like shit once again after they lead the series 2-0. The Mavs’ team MVP from that round. Luka Doncic (AKA Owner Of The Phoenix Suns).
Who do I have winning? The Mavs in 7. The Warriors would not be here if Ja Morant wasn’t injured. The Mavs managed to make the NBA’s best team and its best players (Booker and CP3) look like shit in multiple games. Games 1 and 2 to the Warriors. Games 3 to 5 to the Mavs. Game 6 to the Warriors. And finally, Game 7 to the Mavs.
Post Conference Finals
Well, shit. Why have the NBA Playoffs been so bad? Why has Game 1 of the Western Conference NHL Finals been more exciting than ANY playoff game this season? Why are the refs so fucking bad? WHY WHY WHY!!!!!!
Conference Semifinals
Before The Games On May 10th And May 11th
Bucks vs Celtics (Series Tied 2-2):
Bucks take Game 5, but Celtics come back and eliminate the reigning champs
76ers vs Heat (Series Tied 2-2):
With Embiid back (shouldve been the MVP imo) the 76ers will have an easier time. Sixers in 6
Suns vs Mavericks (Series Tied 2-2):
I doubt the Suns repeat what they did in last years finals. Luka cant carry the Mavs forever. Suns in 6.
Warriors vs Grizzlies (Warriors Lead 3-1):
Without Ja I just cant see the Grizzlies beating the Warriors. Warriors in 5.
Who do YOU think will make it to the Conference Finals?
Before The Games On May 12th And May 13th
Still going with Suns in 6 and Celtics in 7.
Warriors and Sixers will come back after being shit on.
I'm a Knicks fan so it would be nice if the Celtics and Sixers lost :)
Before The Games On May 15th
Brown, Smart, and Tatum all played very well in Game 6 (especially Tatum). I expect them to keep this up and lead the Celtics to the Eastern Conference Finals. Giannis will still have at least 30 points and 10 rebounds though. Celtics in 7.
The last 2 games have been pretty tough for Suns fans (especially Game 6). But I expect them to get back on track and make it to the Western Conference Finals again. Hopefully Luka and the Mavs dont shit on them again. Suns in 7.
Currently 1-1 on predictions. Embiid simply could not do enough to stop Jimmy Butler and the Heat. Hardens fat ass has fallen off BIG TIME after his MVP campaign. I expected the Warriors to win the series with Ja out. Looks like all of yall who believed the Grizzlies could win it were wrong.
Post Conference Semifinals
I was right about the last 3 games of the Celtics and Bucks series! I was not so right about the Suns rebounding. Congrats Luka. You deserved the series win.
