Coming into the season I was expecting Conference Finals of Golden State v. Houston and Boston v. Someone Who Sucks. Therefore, I wasn't planning on watching any playoff basketball before the Conference Finals. However, now that the playoffs have actually rolled around it looks like we might get something different. Are teams like Milwaukee and Denver really good enough to make the finals, or are the usual suspects going to reassert themselves?

I think Milwaukee will make the Finals.

Denver is a year early imo but may make it because there’s no great team on that side of the West bracket. OKC and Portland are notorious playoff chokers, SA is the least talented of the bunch.

My hunch is Denver or OKC but OKC has looked like dogshit for 6 weeks now heading into the playoffs.

If Milwaukee can actually make some noise this year maybe I'll devote my NBA playoff time to watching them.

Giannis had a historically great regular season and the Bucks' coaching is significantly better this season, they're going to make a hell of a lot more noise the playoffs this year.

I got Gun Shot Wounds winning over OKC 4-1, and then Toronto upsetting Milwaukee 4-2. GSW wins championship 4-2. Although I have only watched about 5 minutes of NBA basketball this year, so there you go.

Denver one and done, Aldridge gonna go for 30 a night against Jokic.

Middleton, Mirotic, Brooke Lopez, all forwards, lead the Bucks in 3 pt attempts, each averaging over 6 per game. Having your big guys roaming the perimeter while Gianis works the middle creates crazy floor-spacing when the Bucks are on offense. Always looks like somebody cut a beer-n-brats-n-cheese fart under the basket and chased everybody out of the lane.

Jokic won’t be guarding LA. Millsap will be.

The answer to your question is yes, since the Cavs didn't make the playoffs. Jesus Christ FF

Yeah. I kind of realized Cleveland didn't make it this year. That wasn't exactly the point of the thread, but I suppose any contribution is a good one.

Contribute more Warren.
