If all teams are healthy come playoff time, this will be a season for the ages,
3 legit contenders from the East (Nets, Bucks & Sixers) , & 4 in the west. ( Lakers, Clippers, Nuggets and Utah).. any of these teams can win it all. & I wouldn’t be surprised at all if any of the 7 bring it home..
very exciting if you’re an real NBA fan.

A Nets team that barely plays any defense with an old Griffin and Aldridge?
I'm not too worried.

Nets should easily win
But if there’s anyone who can do the unthinkable is LBJ
He’s done the unthinkable 3 times and won the title as the underdog so you can bet on him
Only Dirk did it , but he only did it one season.
Titles won as underdog
1. 3 LBJ
2. 1 Dirk

Depends on how the NETS perform in the playoffs. If they continue to show their regular season dominance.. then forget about the NBA season for the next 3-4 years (assuming the nets stay healthy).
It'll be a **** show like 2018. Nothing to see for regular NBA fans - not the fault of the NETs but the NBA for stupid rules without foresight that let this happen.

You're forgetting that it's 4 titles. Not the Lakers, but this is about right for Miami LeBron and Cavs.
People forget now and the narrative has changed, but both Miami LeBron (12 and 13) and Cavs LeBron were underdogs - not favoured to win by Vegas and the pundits.
It was only last year his team was favoured.

I'm not currently on her unfortunately but that series would be pretty close to a toss up for me. Nets have more talent but Bron always ends up Bronning in the end.

That’s a good joke, they have trouble guarding young and fast guards , they can’t rebound and treat the lane like lay up line . Brook Lopez is not the one hold down the that fort . Giannis can get his numbers but it won’t be enough at all

Lakers and nets could go 7. The lakers have get through the west first ... I’m not worried about the nets until we get there . It’s long ride for us .

How many times has a team actually won the championship without having a top10 defense and a top10 offense?
It is one thing to say that some team is a favourite to win. It is another thing to just state that this team 100% wins it.
I don’t mean to be mean but sometimes it’s hard to deal with idiots. Those stats don’t matter when you have KD, Kyrie & Harden playing on the same team together.

I wonder what your excuse will be if the Nets do not win it all this season. No team has a championship-chance over 50%. So your prediction is more likely to be wrong than right.

And why is that? The Nets are clearly much more talented, and the Bucks have a crippling weakness in that their half court offense isn't good enough when the defense gets tight in 4th quarters of playoff games.
Sure if Kevin Durant doesn't play the Bucks have a good shot at beating the Nets but at full strength I don't understand how you could look at this matchup and objectively say the Nets can't win it.

Who needs defense when you can score 140 points?
I think Davis and LeBron can absolutely beat the Nets.

The problem with the Lakers to harken back to the NWO/WCW storyline, "Who's the 3rd man". Drummond? Schroder? Not to mention the Nets also have the luxury of having Joe Harris and also Griffin and Aldridge who at minimum could give you at least 10ppg. Unless the NBA's version of Sting is coming out of the rafters, this NWO looks unbeatable if healthy.
