Cs in 5 cuz I'm a wimp and/or the Mavs get hot one game.

Picked Mavs in 7 to jinx them.

pleasantly surprised no one else posted it first -- we've cruised through the first three rounds with me picking 'Celtics in 6' so let's keep it going that way!

If KP is back, I *do* think a sweep is on the table, but you know Luka's going to chuck in a 3 off the glass at the buzzer to get at least one game, and who knows if KP is back/holds up, so I'm going with (fittingly) a title-clinching W on the road, in 6.

For me, I can't choose the amount of games without knowing how healthy KP is... He makes too much of a difference. He to me, is the difference between this being over in 4 or 5 and this going 6 or 7. I do think we win either way though. I guess C's in 6 is probably the safest bet though if I had to choose without knowing the status of KP.

Got us in 6. Split the first two. Split in Dallas and win pivotal game 5 in Boston. End it in Dallas.

I voted Celtics in 6. I always allow for one game where the Celtics suck and one game where the other team plays really well and just beats us. And Mavs are a good team who are playing very well right now.

Cs in 6 seems right.

It's a sweep, and three of the games won't even be close.

Celtics in 7. This will go down as one of the best Finals in NBA history.

Raps in 4

With Porzingis at 90%+ I like us in 5/6.

If he’s in real rusty shape or he has a setback I think it goes 7 but we edge it out.

To be humble and non-entitled I will say Cs in 7 ...on paper considering aLL matchups talent and schemes, we should win in 6

This with KP playing of course.

No KP and its a 7 game pickem

Celts in 6. However I won't be surprised by any outcome other than Mavs in less than 6.

Game 1 will really set the tone.

Celts struggle against elite bigs like Jokic and Embiid.

Small fast guards like Maxey also give the Cs trouble.

The Mavs just don't have any of those.

The Cs really need to capitalize on this opportunity.

Denver would've been a different story.

Mavs have all those things.

Elite small fast guard - kyrie
Elite big man - lively

what ya got?
