I'm a Lakers fan ;), so it's hard for me to say anything objectively about other teams' chances. But I'm sure Oklahoma will play in the West Finals. They have ignored Memphis in the first 2 games with a healthy Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr. and Desmond Bane. Well hopefully the Lakers will play against the Thunder. Cleveland against Boston looks obvious in the East Finals. I don't believe in Indiana or the Knicks. :unsure:

I think Cleveland will beat Boston in the East Finals, to be honest. :ROFLMAO: Yes, Donovan Mitchell is a choker, but they have a very strong balanced roster this season that looks very confident in the series against Miami. Well, I'm a Lakers fan, but even if they get passed Minnesota, a very difficult opponent (most likely Golden State) will be waiting for them in the 2nd round. The Warriors' experience should help them get to the 2nd round. :unsure:

Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Clippers is the most unyielding pair. It is a pleasure to watch such a confrontation.

Yes, the Lakers are losing 1-3 in the series, but I think Los Angeles will win in Game 5, and quite easily. We will again see incredible defense from the Lakers (as it was in Game 2). So if you want to make some money on betting, a Lakers win at odds of "1.40" in the upcoming game is a great option. For those who bet on odds above “1.50”, a Lakers win with a handicap of (- 3.5) also looks very tasty. ;)

the most promising prediction so far... i too think Cavs and Thunder will play in the finals... cause they were domination the regular season with >75% win rate. and celtics are always strong, but they will probably get third overall

Those were just my assumptions. And yes, I'm a Lakers fan, but the Postseason ended just disgracefully for them? Something similar happened in the series with Denver, but it was a struggle in every game. The problem with the center wasn't solved in this Playoffs, so I hope to see a more balanced roster next season. :unsure:

I'm considering the OKC vs. DN series as the true finals for this season and we are going to have a game 7. I guess there is also the possibility that the Celtics will make it back and force a game 7 too.

Seems like the Joker needs some help. The Thunder look really good at times.
