OKC should be the favorite. If they had Caruso instead of Giddey in the playoffs they win that series. The only reason they won that series is because the C was switched onto Giddey because he can't shoot which allowed our C to help in the paint when Luka and Kye inevitable get blown by. Had they had Caruso a top 3 wing defender who shoots over 40% from 3 our C's would have been stuck on the perimeter with Chet and SGA would have murdered the Mavs more than he already did he just didn't get help because of the paint help the C's provided.
Look what happened against the C's when the Gaff and Lively didn't get to help in the paint and had to stay out on the perimeter because of Horford and KP…………………they got absolutely laughed off the court. OKC will go to the finals this year IMO.

Harrison is spot on
