Or do you prefer something like Celtics vs Lakers finals?

Well I think most people wanna see Lebron and Luka on the finals stage, and since theyre playing for the Lakers I reckon most wanna see them face the C's for historical purposes.

From a basketball standpoint OKC-Cleveland would obviously not be bad. But from the perspective of attracting casuals it would be atrocious.

cavs and oak will never reach the finals ...

they have all most ZERO playoff experience .

Boston, milwaukee , Denver and Lakers.. for starters IMO

Cavs vs OKC would be fantastic.

If you've watched these teams play, they play amazing team ball and defend as well.

I like watching them play more than Boston.

1/2 a game out. Almost everyone back. Easiest schedule left. Tough stretch run for the trolls

Certainly the NBA would not be excited.

Give the people what they want.

Lakers v Celtics

From a narrative standpoint it wouldn’t be ideal I guess but from a pure basketball one? Would be awesome.

The Cavs aint beating the Celtics 4 times in 7 tries.

Cavs won’t beat Boston in a 7-game series unless both Jrue & White are injured/hobbled.

OKC has a much better chance of beating the Nuggets/Lakers/Wolves, than the Cavs have of beating a healthy Boston.

That said, I expect the Lakers to figure it out enough by the western finals, to make things very difficult for the young Thunder team. Guarantee JJ & Staff already have numerous gameplans for Denver & OKC, and Minnesota defense already got exposed last playoffs. Luka will scorch them. Maybe even play Toody off the floor, while Ant gets overwhelmed by the tilt they show him, and turns it over and gets frustrated, starts forcing sh!t.

Also, don’t expect Dubious Handle to contribute to winning playoff basketball this post season for Minnesnowta.

The only way Cleveland beats Boston is if Jrue is injured. If Holiday plays and locks up Mitchell it will be a short series because it is essentially cutting the head off the snake.

They will roast mitchell at the other end regardless. We have seen it all before

Cavs/OKC would be an epic war, and that's what I'm hoping for.

Lakers/Celtics will be a 3pt spamfest vs a flopfest. And it's probably going to be be what happens.

OKC's weakness has been rebounding, and the Lakers have no bigs, so I dunno...

Would make for an interesting matchup but obviously, revenue is a top priority for this league over anything else.

I would just want a competitive entertaining series.

If I had to pick I think that most interesting one would be Lakers @ Cavs. Even more than the Lakers @ Celtics.

I would be down for that... just don't want another Celtics-Lakers type of shit... so tired of both those franchises. They've won enough, just f off already

I'm excited to see Cavs vs Boston in the East. I hope both teams are fully healthy. I just have a hard time imagining Boston losing to anyone.
