NBA: How likely is a GSW/ Hawks NBA Finals series?

[Legacy]

Not gonna happen, sorry. There are too many contenders with a load of playoff experience that are going to go into mega-beast mode after this regular season BS is over.

If Klay and Curry activates GOD mode in the playoffs and Bogust stays healthy, then I can't see any defensive scheme stopping them. I want to retract my statement in this thread because they are looking like a championship team right now.

If Spurs play like 2014 Spurs then NBA is ed. If's if's if's. Hard game to play.

This year highly unlikely, there's just too much champ pedigree in the west, and if healthy, the bulls will die before they miss the finals this year

Meteoric teams are very rare in the NBA. Takes a few years battling to the conference finals usually, and neither team has been out of the first round in years.

Warriors were a 2nd round exit in 2013 against The Spurs. Not too long ago, imo...

Detroit-San Antonio all over again but I think this one could get better ratings. GSW is actually a pretty fun team to watch.

golden st is actually pretty popular, i definitely admire the way they play.
