    Warriors are absolutely the clear favorites, but I think Miami can push them. I’d still have to favor GS tho overall. Bam will have to dominate, and the shooters will have to be consistent for the Heat. GS just needs to keep doing what they’re doing

      Miami not pushing them. Celtics can & that’s it

    Miami and Boston can give GS a run.

    So funny just a couple weeks ago everyone in the media was saying “whoever wins this Bucks/Celtics series is winning it all” now the Bucks are eliminated & Boston is down 2-1, while GS is up 3-0 lol. Should be a fire finale to the season. Don’t sleep on the Heat

      bostons just as stacked as the warriors would be a good series, but the warriors just have so much more playoff winning experience/chemistry.

      @Greg “TheGOAT” Ostertag If KY & Harden wasn’t injured the bucks wouldn’t be champions 😏

      @LagTag96 disagree. I think they were worse when they all played together than 1 down…

      @Allgaming network how can you possibly think Boston’s roster is as good as GS?

      @Allgaming network warriors I think got more weapons brown and Tatum I never see play hood on the same day it’s either one or the other

    If Miami advances to the finals, the Warriors wins the chip. If Boston advances, the Warriors loses in 6 or 7.

    I’m not calling them the favorites. But Ive also been wrong about them all year.

    If Steph gets his 4th ring and 1st FMVP this year, he’s officially in my top 10 ever and GOAT PG. this would be my 10
    1. MJ
    2. Kareem
    3. LBJ
    4. Tim Duncan
    5. Hakeem
    6. Kobe
    7. Steph
    8. Shaq
    9. Wilt
    10. Magic

      @TheSwagIsBack Kobe isn’t better than Shaq

      Strphs road the finals this year is the easiest . Firs ground against Denver missing 2/3 of their best players. Grizzlies with no ja . Mavericks with their terrible team . Celtics had to go through so many tough teams .

      How is he ahead of Magic? Genuinely asking

    • Teffy2105

      May 23, 2022 at 6:04 pm

      Magic is #2

    • Greg “TheGOAT” Ostertag

      @Teem0s his roads to the finals have always been riddled with opposing player injuries.

    Warriors have the versatility to match any style they come against

    Been telling people since 2021 Warriors got this in the bag

    I remember everyone say the warriors wasn’t going back to the finals when KD left

    Miami and Celtics can give them a problem. Yes the Warriors are clear favorites

  11. Jack Napier

    May 23, 2022 at 12:01 pm

    No they are not! Boston and Miami at this point in time have better defenses then anyone in the western conference!

    May 23, 2022 at 12:01 pm

    Jj thinks Celtics are going to win the chip, you’d expect a better take from a former baller

  13. M Mez

    May 23, 2022 at 12:13 pm

    So if the Warriors win the chip this year, what excuses will people use to discredit them yet again???

    L for jj W for Stephen A

    If Steph gets his 1st FMVP he will be 9th all time on my top 10 list:
    1. MJ
    2. LeBron
    3. Kareem
    4. Wilt
    5. Duncan
    6. Magic
    7. Bill Russell
    8. Larry Bird
    9. Curry
    10. Hakeem

      I love Steph but he is not ahead of Shaq and Kobe yet.

    • Matthew4000

      May 23, 2022 at 2:47 pm

      @Harinder Rana Not now but if Curry wins another ring I think he is greater than Kobe or Shaq

    Another tough road to a title 🤣

    If one guy can bring his team down from 0-3 it’s Luka.
    Just not against the Warriors.
    Though he’ll never be down 0-3 except against the Warriors.
    Ignore that comment.

    JJ is such a Warriors hater. Just because they whipped his a** each time they met with him

    I feel like jaren Jackson is just as versatile as bam and Jackson still wasn’t enough. Also herro, lowry, tucker aren’t doing nothing to Steph
