if the lakers meet GSW 2nd round i have the lakers going to the finals,

if they meet the clippers, who are constructed to beat the lakers, then it gets weird

I think EAST is clearer. Either Milwaukee or Boston. Sixers is outside shot.

But West is loaded. Nuggets, Warriors, Clippers, Suns, Lakers, Grizzlies anyone can make it.

My bracket is almost the same as yours, except that I have the Grizzlies beating the Warriors, and then tbe Bucks beating the Grizzlies.

With middleton still out, it's hard to root for the bucks to win it all the way.

Yes, I was also very unsure when deciding Clips vs Suns, because Kawhi is just a beast in the playoffs, but this time he will be up against Durant, who he won't be able to bully defensively.

Personally, I kind of hope both these teams, Phoenix and Boston make it, because they're teams that run it back and have kept their cores for a long time. These are the kind of organic teams that are fun to follow.

I do think Boston is the best bet, they're a very, very good defensive team and a deep team. It's going to depend on if Tatum can have a consistent 30ppg finals series and finally step up as superstar.
