Finals
Bucks vs Suns Bucks in 7 (Win by 16) (Giannis takes everything from chris paul and they celebrate in front of there crowd)
My prediction is lakers vs bucks in the finals. Lakers in 7.
The bucks are a better team than 2021, but khris Middleton is the key to them winning. If he doesn’t avg 20 consistently and efficiently they can’t win against Boston
Of course. The nets were the best team 2 years ago, injuries aside.
Bucks lack only wing D. This is the favorite easy
Why is anyone interested in Racist Town Clown Perkins who helped ruin the MVP Race with his pathetic racial resentment rants and straightforward false information? Or his normally stunningly ignorant takes in general? It's literally a disgrace that an inarticulate half wit like this guy has a platform.
people dont realize, Giannis game has evolved also, he can actually shoot and he shoots pretty good, has a fade away also which wasn't the case previously, supporting cast will make it much more difficult to build a wall around him, all we gotta do is take guys like Derek White and Horford out the game and well be alright, for some reason Horford and White turn into Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain any time they play the Bucks
Clippers, Lakers, Warriors, Pelicans Scenarios
If they all tied…
Clippers
vs. Lakers: 4-0
vs. Warriors: 2-2
vs. Pelicans: 0-3
Overall: 6-5
Lakers
vs. Clippers: 0-4
vs. Warriors: 3-1
vs. Pelicans: 3-1
Overall: 6-6
Warriors
vs. Clippers: 2-2
vs. Lakers: 1-3
vs. Pelicans: 2-2
Overall: 5-7
Pelicans
vs. Clippers: 3-0
vs. Lakers: 1-3
vs. Warriors: 2-2
Overall: 6-5
5. Pelicans
6. Clippers
7. Lakers
8. Warriors
The highest the Pelicans can win is 43. Their next 2 are Knicks and @ Minnesota.
Now let's say Clippers beats Portland but loses @ Phoenix. Let's say Warriors and Lakers both win the final 2.
5. Warriors (44W)
6. Pelicans (43W)
7. Clippers (43W)
8. Lakers (43W)
The H2H records between the Pels, Clippers, and Lakers will decide the order.
Pelicans: 4-3
Clippers: 4-3
Lakers: 3-5
Since Pels and Clippers are tied , Pels will still be above the Clippers due to having the better conference record.
Conference Records (next tiebreaker)
Pelicans: 31-22 (if they win their final 2)
Warriors: 30-22 (if they win their final 2)
Clippers: 26-26 (if they win POR, lose @ PHX)
Lakers: 27-25 (if they win their final 2)
Looking like my Clippers needs to win both games this weekend if Pelicans gets in the mix. If that's the case, Clippers will end up 5th. They own the tiebreaker over the Warriors.
Clippers fans better hope the Pelicans split or lose both games. If a split and Clippers beat Portland but lose @ Phoenix because we all know Kawhi isn't playing in a B2B…
5. Warriors (44W)
6. Clippers (43W)
7. Lakers (43W)
8. Pelicans (42W)
If the Warriors lose @ Sac, Clippers lose @ Phoenix, and everyone else wins their games…
5. Pelicans (43W)
6. Clippers (43W)
7. Lakers (43W)
8. Warriors (43W)
Pelicans throwing a monkey wrench in the equation. But I say they're going to split. They're losing one of these last 2 games. NY and @ Minny looks tough. Minny is desperate. Clippers can't afford to be tied with Pelicans and must beat Portland.
5. Warriors (44W)
6. Clippers (43W)
7. Lakers (43W)
8. Pelicans (42W)
If they all win their final 2 games…
5. Clippers (44W)
6. Warriors (44W)
7. Lakers (43W)
8. Pelicans (43W)
This Bucks team is legit, Holiday is a dog, Giannis is a top 25 player of all time. This is a solid team
Embiid just got blown out by the Miami Heat, he was scared to take the wheel at his home court, there is your MVP
If Giannis wins Finals MVP.

It's crazy to me that some of these people have jobs
GIANNIS 2023 MVP 🏆💪🏿🦍 + 2023 NBA CHAMP 🏆💍
Bucks; even though their stagnant offense gets frustrating ah at times, but it still got em a title.
