Seems fair tbh, I would say that the odds of getting by the teams warrants that:
100% Memphis
75% OKC
40% GS
90% Whoever the East sends as tribute to our West champion
That gives us a 27% chance

Those are pretty high numbers against The warriors.
Id go
100%
70%
30%
70%
I think 15% is a better number imo
The East will be a walkover barring injury
Yeah but Curry is wearing down. The ratings don't take that into account.
I agree with this, he has been slowing since the all star break. His numbers are down and his shooting is leveling off from incredible to just very good. They are beatable, but its gonna take a smart series from us and we are going to have to win the close games. We cant drop any 1 or 2 possesion games, we cant give up the patented Warriors lucky bull comeback from 8 down with 2 minutes to play. We have to play fundamentally sound.
Also their belief that they can win any win down 10 with a few minutes to go will be their undoing. Their arrogance will hurt them in the playoffs.
No it wont. Cleveland is not a walkover. Stop being vanilla mainstream
Lol, they can barely beat Detroit
I think the chances of progressing from each round would be 100 > 65 > 35 > 80
Spurs were the better team most of the year, except for the last couple of games when they were resting/not chasing meaningless RS wins/not trying to boost chances for winning player awards which math doesn't show. 538, ESPN's power index and bballref had Spurs 1st before last couple of games.
Its called matchups. The spurs could barely beat Dallas
Exactly what I was saying. I agree. It's obviously matchups.
99.8%, 80%, 30%, 95%.
I'm not going to say the Cavs are a push over, but you can't make the finals % prediction in a vacuum. IF they get past the dubs, they are playing strong and would have to be heavily favored against the likes of the Cavs. 20%
Right in line with Vegas giving 3/1 or 4/1 odds
Don't ever tell me the odds!
I'd say they're about as much of a walkover as you are as a poster.:
Need to blowout gs like we blew out miami in '14 refs will not let us win the close ones.
Healthy and playing well. Healthy and playing well. Only thing that matters.
I agree. Also, I don't see the NBA letting the Spurs beat Lebron again and be 3-1 vs him. If the Spurs by some miracle get by the GS, I expect the "fix" to be in against Cleveland and let them have their first ever championship. I expect to see parker getting hacked and pushed in the lane and no-call, Tristian getting away with murder and pushing against LMA, Kawhi being in fall trouble all series long, JR smith and delladova cucking patty, Kyrie irving going wild from 3, pop ting the bed. I don't want to see cleveland for that reason alone. It will be a good story-line for the NBA though. The nba letting lebron beat either SA/GS this year.
Lol, thats funny you think the NBA could alter the outcome of that series. Its one of those situations where Lebron, Kyrie, and Love would have to play out of their minds with ref help just to push it to a game 7, which would be in SA. Bron Bron is gonna be 1-3 vs the Spurs if we play them.
I agree tbh, though I would say we're probably around 35-38% vs GSW. Health + GSW has HCA and will be getting the whistle due to being the flavor of the month for the NBA.
I may be in the minority but I think the Clippers have a decent shot of knocking them off and if not, at least hobbling them. There is a lot of bad blood in that rivalry and the two teams have been trending opposite directions since the last 10 games of the season.
realistically, it's 60% gsw and 39% spurs. everybody else sums up to maybe 1%
