    Raptors in 7. Kawhi with the series clincher buzzer beater. Will bounce on the rim about 4 times before falling in. Gentlemen's sweep by the Warriors in the finals.

    2 best players in the eastern conference going head to head.

    It was meant to be.

    Bucks in 7. Hopefully It’s enough to convince Kawhi to stay in Toronto. Or just stay in the east.

    Bucks with better chance to take out worriers in the finals. I am rooting for them.

    Dayum just as I thought Sixers had the momentum and had to save Brett Brown's job......

    so anything is possible in this series......I could also see Bucks dismissing them in 6 if they continue to play inconsistently.

    Kawhi must save them again.

    Two best two-way players in the game going head to head.

    Kawhi is the better player but Giannis has the better team around him and that will decide the series.

    41 for Leonard. Guy took 39 shots but kept believing in himself and came up HUGE in the 4th quarter, that is what superstars do. That is what Curry did game 6, and now Leonard in game 7.

    Use to think Leonard was slightly overrated, but not anymore. Guy is easily top 5.

    Kawhi having 1 of the best playoff runs ever

    I’m rooting heavy for Giannis and the Bucks’ demise, so let’s go Raptors!!

    Rooting for Raptors, simply because their older players like Gasol, Ibaka and Lowry have been battling in the playoffs for years and I hope they can finally make the finals. But I think the Bucks will win...Giannis is just tough to stop, their supporting cast has been more consistent than the Raptors, and I think the NBA wants a Giannis vs Warriors finals this year.

    Same, I always default for guys like that. Gasol always been a great player to watch and admire and I'd love to see him get a ring.

    Plus, Kawhi has some revenge to get on the Warriors since that Zaza thing...I'd like to see him get another shot at them.

    I think you guys are underestimating the Raps defense. The Bucks series will be close and could go either way. I feel the Raps were not a good matchup for the 76ERS and thus had a hard time on offense. Like it or not but Embid really is a force that the Bucks don't have.

    Bucks have a much better 3-pt shooting team. That's how I'm betting on this.

    Hahah that tongue is not as great on him as MJ, this shot is funny as hell though: shocked look from Embiid "noo!!!" , Simmons like "ow ****, there it goes" and Danny Green over there squatting and ******** his pants like "(p)ooooo, that feels good".

    I'll take the upset, Raptors in 6.
