Bucks and Giannis, Celtics, Heat Rematch, or Embiid/Harden Sixers?

Lakers - Celtics for history purposes but I'll pick the Bucks because of the superstar match-ups and because I don't want to see the Celtics in the Finals again, they're a boring team and would get demolished on the boards and in the paint. Lakers - Bucks would go 7 games.
Lakers might win this series but I don’t see them making the finals if LeBron doesn’t heal up.

Why would I root for Boston to make the Finals? I'd rather see them get bounced early than endure any more threads about Tatum being a superstar when he's not. Lebron/AD vs. Giannis would be more epic, I've always loved the Lakers - Bucks RS match-ups when all 3 have played.

Denying Tatum is a superstar is pretty dumb at this point.

He's not that dude.. idk what your definition of a superstar is but he's a 2nd tier star.
It's like if Paul Pierce played on a loaded squad his whole career (Pierce was a better offensive player IMO).

sixers lakers has the most starpower imo so I guess i'll go with them. Giannis is best in the league but harden still has more of a star rep than holiday/middleton and unlike some other people, i dont think it's completely undeserved. Also embiid/ad is just a good matchup
Lakers Sixers, both teams talented af with star power houses.
Celtics are pretenders and Bucks don’t have Giannas

Provided health:
- Celtics and Bucks would be the hardest but it's not very epic since I think they'll win in less than 7 games.
- Heat is too weak, Lakers would just win 4-0
- Philly is the one that has the best chance to go 7 games in an epic battle.

"they'll" is Lakers or Celtics/Bucks?

Pretty sure he's more of a star than your boy ingraham. :lebronamazed:

Prob this but for some reason I can't see this happening :lol
The 2 biggest cities with the 2 most popular franchises would be it. As much as the Knicks have been a shitshow, they are still the most valuable NBA franchise.

When the Lakers beat the Celtics in the Finals, it should count as two championship wins.

Looks like Sixers-Lakers right now. Although I think Celtics win game 6.
A Sixers-Heat ECF seems far more interesting than Celtics-Heat though, that just seems stale. Give us something else.

Sixers-Lakers would be fun, Embiid typically dominates AD hard when they face each other.

I dont really trust Embiid yet in that stage. I feel like he could choke game 6 also.

Embiid in that pick and pop from the FT line is automatic. I want to see how the Celtics adjust and attempt to take that away. If they don't he easily scores 30 on us again.
