I told him to go ahead and create one and finish it later since the Playoff OT is well over our ideal post number guidelines and creating a OT2 that would be closed within a day didn't make any sense.

Lakers in 4.
I just want the Cavs to play hard. If, possibly when, GSW wins then they're officially the best team in the history of the league. 73-10 and demolishing teams like they did makes their case for them.
I just love the fact the Cavs are underdogs. The dubs should sweep the Cavs since the west is so much tougher than the east, right people?

...and also because the Eastern Conference has been pretty damn weak for a good while.

Lol yes someone please do it
If he was in the west he would struggle to make it to the finals. As of now being in the east guarantees a free finals for whichever team he is.
Bulls vs Jazz. Back to back years where Jordan met and decimated the Mailman.
Spurs vs Heat
Malone was great in 98 btw

I kinda want Lebron and the Cavs to win, because:
- bringing Cleveland it's first title in *anything* in a jillion years is a legit narrative; doing it as a native from the state is even more legit
- it would preserve current basketball canon for just a little while longer, and we can calm down the preemptive CURRY IS GREATEST EVER EVEN BEFORE CAREER IS OVER stuff before it's earned over time.
...but I kinda want Curry and GSW to win because:
- that team is just too damn good and beautiful to watch play when they're on.
- Curry's impossibly good shooting is a paradigm-shifting weapon in NBA canon, and I wonder just how far it can change the game and its priorities.
- it would prevent the dark timeline in which JR SMITH is an NBA champion. I just can't have that happen.
Warriors in 7 - but only because I can't in good conscience go against the Warriors after what I just saw them do to OKC.

The most interesting part of this series is seeing if CLE can come close to the switching defense that OKC played last series. IIRC Kevin Love got roasted every time in PNR D. I think someone tweeted out a stat saying that Kyrie and Love gave up the most PPP in PnR defense in the entire league, which is troublesome. Cleveland doesn't have the go-go gadget long armed perimeter defenders that OKC has, and definitely don't have the interior defense.
Hoping the Warriors win. Partially so they can complete the amazing season they've had since it wouldn't be the same without a championship... but also because I just don't like Lebron and Cleveland's team in general. I wouldn't mind seeing Cleveland finally win a championship but... those players, ugh.
But I think the Cavs will win it. The whole revenge factor thing after last year. They're hungry. Plus Curry isn't quite right and the Warriors have looked at least somewhat vulnerable. I think Cleveland gets it done.
