    Who do you think will make the finals and whom would you prefer to win now that the Rox aren't in it.

    For me, I think it is Phoenix vs Brooklyn.....

    And I want Phoenix to win.

    That would be a really fun series to see. Hopefully Silver doesn't send in his cronies to make sure LeBron is in the finals.

    rigged league is rigged, too many fakers fans and leroids casuals for silver to go any other route

    I prefer Grizzlies and Wizards. Fun series to watch. I'd root for Memphis to win.

    Brooklyn. If they try a little on defense and stay healthy, they will roll to a championship. The over/under on how many games they lose should be about 6.

    Lakers and Bucks. Brooklyn has durability issues same thing with Sixers. Giannis is built like a tank. Bron has not missed the Finals when healthy in recent memory.

    Rooting for Brooklyn because of Harden. I'd damn near take anyone but Utah, Dallas or the Lakers though

    I’ll say Brooklyn.

    When was the last time a healthy Kevin Durant was eliminated from the playoffs. His last year with OKC?

    There is a trend with younger stars which began in the bubble too.

    Booker, Mitchell, Jokic, (Murray last year), Embiid, (Luka,Tatum), Trae, Simmons, Giannis.

    No 1 preference is nuggets vs sixers. I want an old school low post battle between embid and joker.

    No 2 preference was Lakers vs Nets. Obviously this option is dead. Lakers are eliminated and half the mega stars were injured anyways.
