NBA title down to 4 teams

[Brock Landers]

Only 4 teams are going to be able to win the title

Phoenix
Memphis
Boston
Miami

Each of the last 10 years, the NBA title was won by teams in both to 10 of defense and offense

Only those 4 are this year

Boston suns finals

Suns Bucks

Suns Bucks

Bucks no

I hope Williams can get back and play like he was playing before the injury. Celts could be clicking on all cylinders.

[BuckyOne]

The Suns can get beat / they are not a lock in the west.

[stake1]

thank you for that report Thom

[stevenash]

Suns Bucks

Phoenix is the class of the west, I can't see the east being represented by any other team besides Bucks or Heat.

Harden is not and never will be a big time player and that kills Philly.
I'd like to see Boston, but are they deep enough?

[Snowball]

Guys you know how NBA playoffs work

It's a whole new season

Don't fall for the trap teams that racked up regular season wins

Watch out for the teams with stars that save the best for when it matters.

Never forget it becomes NBE in the playoffs

I don't really think Suns in 4 but it seemed like a good thread for the "Suns in 4" guy.

[stevenash]

I'd like to see Utah, but they always shit the bed on me.

[Brock Landers]

Bucks are NOT one of 4 teams this year

[stake1]

I'd like to see Utah, but they always shit the bed on me.

I’m taking a ticket or two on the Nets to win the East. they can beat anyone in that conference in a short series with their co-mvp’s
And Durant? when the playoffs start? He can destroy anyone, whenever he feels like it. Can’t guard him in the playoffs

Not a big fan of Kyrie but appears to me his head is screwed on a lot better lately too, yeah, maybe Brooklyn, without Harden I'm OK with that.
It's Harden I can't stand, Kyrie? I just think he's goofy.

[jjgold]

Bucks way down from last year

[stake1]

Nasher: sixers have zero shot winning the East. If you cap the coaches? Doc+Harden=

Oops, another Maxey turnover.
No shot.

[stake1]

Miami has no shot either imo, too much dysfunctional distractions on that roster, this guy banging that guys girl, the other guy banging that guys boyfriend. Total mess
Especially if the “flop aligns” and fourth street turns Nets in round 1
will be bye bye bay bay!

[Snowball]

waiting for the series odds to print
no leans yet

[KVB]

Agreed snowy, let's get the numbers and then see what we're looking at.

[stake1]

Woj says Simmons’ epi injection has worked. Possible debut for the Nets after the play-in

[stevenash]

Do any of these games tonight mean anything regarding seedings?
I've been out of touch the past week with the NBA, my head has been up MLB's ass all week.

All I know is there's been a shitload of 240+ games lately.

No faith in Celtics huh

I've triggered a bunch of NBA Total bets this week, spreads too. Not Contrarian Fund, but spread and Total Funds.

Had a small uptick in wins, then it's been a disaster. Down -6 units last 5 days and dipping into negative territory and a low for the season in the spread Fund.

Totals Fund up 4 units in 5 days and just hit positive territory.

Those Funds very lackluster right now.

Faith? Some.
I'm just wondering if the bench is strong enough.
I worked in Boston for eight years, I'm pulling for them.
Good people those Townies are.

NBA is the only sport where I have no real 'favorite' team.
The last 'favorite' team I had was when I was school in school when Jason Kidd ran the point for NJ.
Now he was fun to watch, Kidd and Nash.in Phoenix were fun to watch.

If Curry plays in the playoffs... you just have to throw in Golden State in the mix. Coaching... Steve Kerr.... You got Cassius Klay Thompson. I mean... I know Klay Thompson ain't no Kobe Bryant.... but personality wise... that boy gives it all he has during the playoffs... similar to Bryant.

[lakerboy]

ZERO chance

Memphis
Boston
Miami

Suns have a shot because the West is down.

[Brock Landers]

What the hell is wrong with you people?

Statistically you need to be in the top 10 of both offense and defense to win the title.

Period

Phoenix
Memphis
Boston
Miami

No others are going to win it

[pilebuck13]

Guys banking on 1 year all statistics cease to exist

[goduke]

10 years is an incredibly low sample size.

[stevenash]

10 years is an incredibly low sample size.

As a math geek I endorse this post.

[thomorino]

Only 4 teams are going to be able to win the title

Phoenix
Memphis
Boston
Miami

Only those 4 are this year

What a horrible take, Memphis has zero chance to win anything.

Its Phoenix, Milwaukee, Boston, Brooklyn, Miami and Golden State

[Brock Landers]

10 years is an incredibly low sample size.

Most NBA players come and go within 10 years

That's what you call a "significantly significant" statistic

[Orbison]

don't the Bucks usually turn up the defense in the playoffs?
