Luka has been on a villain arc for a while, and then you've got Kyrie with his checkered history in Boston and Kidd the evil mastermind. On top of that, you've got Mark Cuban.

I guess what I'm saying is **** Boston, go Mavs.

I think Boston takes it in 5 or 6 but I'll put a few bucks on the Mavs anyway just in case.

Should be a really good series. Boston has the better overall team, but Dallas has the best player.

Go Dallas, but I would probably give a slight edge to Boston.

I feel like whoever wins the Jrue vs Kyrie match-up, their team wins the series.

Luka getting his beer snatched by a Wisconsin (Badgers) guy is pretty hilarious.

Glad we’re all in agreement, **** Boston

Luka is an incredible talent, feel like the best player will win out in the end and will his team to the championship

Mavs are 26-5 with this current post-deadline starting 5. I think they have that special sauce at the right time.

Think they gotta put Jrue on Luka. White on Kyrie.

Imagine taking Bagley over Luka.....that had to be the easiest pick ever and the kings just puked all over themselves.

Jrue is too small for Luka. And we know that Kyrie owns him. This is nightmare matchup for Jrue honestly. I predict that Cs fans will hate him after this.

Anyway, Mavs will win for sure. If healthy offcourse.

Jrue is too small for Luka.

Yes, they will find that out the hard way like we did versus Jimmy.

Very impressive run by Dallas but Boston will be too much. I'll be rooting for a Jrue Finals MVP.

I am rooting for Dallas for so many reasons ...

1. Luka , winning NBA Championship completes his legacy. Won a EuroLeague with Real Madrid, won a National Team Euro Cup, it would be awesome to make it to the highest level again.

2. Kyrie. I love this dude. The player, and lately the man. He has become an inspiration, he has matured, remaining calm, wiser and actually helping Luka showing him the hard and right way to win it all. His motive to win it all shuts all his long lasting doubters. Winning a ring without Lebron, winning against his former team, winning by being a great teammate, by playing defense would be the ultimate joy for him, for proving his true value as a player.

3. Jason Kidd. Winning a title with the same team as player and as a Coach would be epic for his legacy too.

You can literally make 3 different movies with their story
