I'm surprised not a single vote was casted for Jalen Williams

If you want to go for the absolute most value, I'd say go for Siakam.

The style of D OKC plays, their first priority will be limiting Haliburton. Star guards rarely go off against OKC due to their personnel. Siakam I can see having a huge series though. A very rough comparison, but he's like the consistent version of Julius Randle.

So if the Pacers pull off the upset, I'd say Siakam has played one hell of a series. That one is good value to me.

Locked in for Haliburton.

Mathurin with 27 points in 87 TS%. Another game like this in game 4 then finish OKC in game 5 or 6 with team effort onslaught like what we saw in the 4th quarter and he will be the top contender for Finals MVP. Got swag as early as his rookie years taunting LeBron after he got drafted.

The fact that Mathurin wasn’t even mention in the OP is a travesty.

That poll suggests OKC would win.
I am not sure if the poll allows for it, but it would be better to allow for two choices - one if OKC wins and one if the Pacers win.
OKC - SGA

pacers - Pascal

SGA is not so superhuman without the refs giving him the type of calls he got during the regular season.
