[jjgold]

I will take Denver

[cincinnatikid513]

bucks

[jjgold]

Bucks not built for playoff basketball

[Hman]

Lakers, until/unless the season begins to take a toll on LeBron and he wears down or gets hurt

[Otters27]

A Davis is quite the beast

Everyone says clippers will be the best when it counts

[lakerboy]

Raptors still. Deep and loaded.

[jjgold]

We now know Leonard played with great players in Toronto and have a great coach

Boston fighters now because they got rid of queer Irving

[Bostongambler]

I vote Clippers

[jjgold]

Clips best defense I think

[nocturnal012]

Clips obviously. Took warriors with kd, steph, klay and dray to game 6. Now they added Klaw and PG13. Easy best team in NBA.

[hotcross]

which team is best? or which team will win the Finals this year?

might not be the same answer for both

[asiagambler]

Maybe Sixers

[IBetYou]

Why do people say win the finals? It's called a championship isn't it?

[G Anon Dropout]

Clippers. Denver will fade down the stretch and lose in the playoffs. Lakers will fall apart with injuries after the halfway point of the season.

Why do people say win the finals? It's called a championship isn't it?

The NBA Finals is the annual championship series of the National Basketball Association (NBA). The Eastern and Western conference champions play a best-of-seven game series to determine the league champion. The winners of the Finals are awarded the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy, which replaced the Walter A. Brown Trophy in 1983.


The series was initially known as the BAA Finals prior to the 1949–50 season when the Basketball Association of America (BAA) merged with the National Basketball League (NBL) to form the NBA. The competition oversaw further name changes to NBA World Championship Series from 1950 to 1985, as well as a brief stint as the Showdown, before settling on NBA Finals in 1986.

Raptors. Raptors were always good before last season but the other coach didn't do much to improve the T. The new guy that took over and went all the way really implemented the 3 game and they are shooting the three really well. They do everything well. Siahkam is a beast and what we have seen so far is not even his full potential. By season end he will be even better. Freddy is a good motivator and always gives 110%. Annyobi and Powell will be lot better too by the time play off starts. They are winning games without Ibaka and Lowry and they will be back too. This Nurse guy is a really good coach...he should have won coach of the year award last year. This team can play the d, score from everywhere. That spanish center dude's offense is the only weakness now but he makes it up with his smart D and his offense can only get better. Raptors are the team to beat. I think they win it all again if they don't have any key injuries around play off time.

Yeah, the championship. They don't say please welcome your NBA Finals winners the Toronto Raptors.

[hotcross]

You call the winning team the Champions

Before that, you say who will win the Finals.

It doesn't matter really, but I'd expect a brit to be more properly versed.

[Big Bear]

Bucks not built for playoff basketball

exactly

in the East I like the Raptors to get back

they will play the Lakers

[stevek173]

Tough to judge between Lakers and Clippers, Clips are slight Vegas favorite over Lakers right now to take down the championship

Anyone saying anyone else is just stupid and/or uninformed.

[Big Bear]

Clippers are not a legit contender

who do they have besides Khawilili?

he has to rest every other game anyway

[stevek173]

Your Mom

[Big Bear]

Your Mom

woah easy pal


I aint trying to take my shirt off and scrap

[stevek173]

Alright cool my bad POTM

Clips are +300 to win it all right now
LaL are +350

Next closest team is Bucks at +550

These guys that like the Raptors so much can get them at +3500 right now

Vegas knows

I say Lakers get it done personally

What is a championship then, or is that not in your dictionary?

[shadymcgrady]

No one named Philly? If the 6ers don't make the finals that lame duck coach should be gone

[IBetYou]

Embiid is a mental midget. Simmons is a brat. Sixers wont go far without Butler leading them.

Battle of LA

Steve relax bud. What was Tor at this point last season?

[sosawestbrook]

its still tight and too early in the season. there will be more clarity later on. who is going to be aggressive at the deadline? I believe whoever gets Iguodala will take a big leap. Im praying its the Rockets. that team would be absolutely filthy with his addition.

[lakerboy]

No one named Philly? If the 6ers don't make the finals that lame duck coach should be gone

Why should they be in the finals? They aren't very good. Who will do the scoring?

[Goat Milk]

Lakers, until/unless the season begins to take a toll on LeBron and he wears down or gets hurt

You do realize Lebron has never once been hurt in the playoffs in like 17 years? So you're betting against that?

[Goat Milk]

Raptors. Raptors were always good before last season but the other coach didn't do much to improve the T. The new guy that took over and went all the way really implemented the 3 game and they are shooting the three really well. They do everything well.

What? Raptors needed so many things to go right to win last year.

1) Buzzer beater in game 7 that was lucky to go in
2) Acquiring the best free agent superstar at the time
3) Kevin Durant, the best player in the world, gets injured
4) Demarcus cousins, a top 3 big man in the world, tears his acl and his quad back to back
5) Klay Thompson, a top 20 player in the world, tears in ACL

Lmao. Can't make this shit up. And Raptors now are somehow going to repeat without a guy who averaged 35 in the finals vs. a D league team, and it still went 6 games?

Lmao. Classic SBR.

[jjgold]

Miami underrated too
So much talent on many many teams NBA

[stevek173]

Steve relax bud. What was Tor at this point last season?

LB if you bet that +3500 price on Toronto and it hits I will give you props for that every day I post here until I die. After that as well if I figure out a way.

They are nothing without Kawhi, and Vegas knows it.

[jjgold]

Denver quietly wins
