Now that the playoffs are set who do you have winning the nba championship?

I have Bucks or Nets winning it all. Nets haven't had any time together as big 3 which makes me keep Bucks as wild card but otherwise I believe Nets.

Nets vs lakers

Nets win

Still quite a few possibilities but I'm starting to like the chances of the 76ers more lately. Their first and second round match ups shouldn't be too much of a problem. Meanwhile the Nets and especially Bucks have tougher first round match ups than the 76ers and then have to face each other after. Whoever they'd then face in the finals would have gone through tough outs in every round, seeing how loaded the west is once again this year.

This probably goes for all teams but when there are bound to be a lot of close series, it is going to be a huge rest advantage for teams to put away their opponents in 4 or 5.

The Lakers because the Nets are too injury prone and have worse depth

Nets over Lakers in NBA Finals.

It’s sad, but the team with 8 games played together likely wins it all, and nobody will respect them. KD will turn to burners en masse in an attempt to defend his new trophy.

Clearly lebron

I would pick the Lakers before, and I will now, beiing the 7th seed guaranteed them an easier path to the conference finals, and theres no team in the east winning against them

Raptors. Always Raptors.

Nets over Clippers

Nets. Only way I can see it not happening are injuries

Nets. The talent is just overwhelming. This feels like the 2015 season where we think it’s wide open but don’t see the budding dynasty right sitting right in front of us.

I'm rooting for the Bucks.

Really depends on health. I agree if they stay healthy throughout the playoffs no one is beating them although the lakers still scare me.

The Nets will win if they're fully healthy. Unfortunately it really doesn't matter that they barely played together all season and Hardens out of shape. The NBA almost always just comes down to who can stack the most talent on one team, and the Nets have the most.

Lakers, LeBron and AD will be unbeatable after their test against the Suns.

Wizards followed by Nets are most likely. The ecf between those two will be the real finals imo
