WCF :Warriors vs Spurs
Warriors in 6
ECF: Cavs vs Celtics
Cavs in 5

Finals: Warriors vs Cavs
Warriors in 5

I think 3 teams are pretty much set (Warriors, Spurs, Cavs) unless OKC can knockoff the Spurs. The real wild card is the 2nd team in the eastern conference which I chose the Celtics. If Chris Bosh is healthy I can see the Heat making a run, but assuming he’s out for a while I think it comes down to the Celtics and the Raptors. I just like the coaching of Brad Stevens, and the very good team defense of the Celtics to eek out a close series vs the Raps.

ECF
CLE vs MIA (if bosh is healthy)
Cavs in 5
WCF
GSW vs OKC
Warriors in 6 maybe 7
The whole shabang
Warriors in a tough grueling 7 game series.
Yes they are one of the best teams of our era but I can see Lebron and Kyrie pushing this series to the limit.

Warriors, Spurs, Thunder and Cavs look the 4 best teams in the NBA.
I’d take Warriors to get through to face the Cavs, a lot could depend if a team like the Cavs has an easier passage to the finals and say the Warriors get tied down in a long hard Conference Final vs Spurs.
I’d still favour the Warriors to win in 6 overall.

Can’t talk myself into taking the Cavs to win it all.
More than likely the Warriors win it. The Spurs look good too. Thunder are deadly. The New Look Grizzlies look like a Total PAIN to play against.
I HOPE some team other than the Cavs gets to the Finals this season. Kinda tired of LeBron. And, losing 3 straight Finals would be a bad look for LeBron.
Toronto in the Finals would be pretty cool. The league needs a newer, up and coming team in the East to build up and market. Maybe that can be Toronto.
LeBron and the Cavs looks like another dead end. I am just not seeing it…

I’m gonna go out on a limb a little bit…..
I say Boston’s grit beats out Toronto’s not yet ready for prime time Raptors in a 7 game Eastern Conf Semi
& I think OKC upsets the Spurs b/c the Spurs have some new critical players & it always seems to take a full year to integrate…..
So….. Golden State over OKC in a classic 7 game series…..
& Cleveland over Boston in a rugged, brutal 7 game series….
& then in the Finals I’m going out on a limb….. Somehow, someway Cleveland beats Golden State in a 7 game series & Lebron wins his final Ring
& Cleveland finally gets their City’s desperately suffered for Championship…… & is probably the only team that will interupt a 4 year Finals / Title run by Golden State…..

  Wrong… Celtics just waived David Lee, they’re gonna go fall back to the 11th seed.

how there has already been 5 teams named to go against the Cavs in the ECF. I love the tight race in this conference, which is slowly getting stronger. Would be nice if one or two of them took the next step and actually got on Cleveland’s level. The Western Conference playoff battles will be so much more interesting.
Lebron ISO ball is enough to get a Finals apperance in the east.
