i mean contenders. after gsw, the teams most likely to get to the finals are raps, bos, phi, mil, hou.
Sir- put the bong down and back slowly away from your computer
one team comes out of the east. Raps, celts or bucks in my opinion. Raptors probably have the best chance.
He said contendors. No teams in the east are contendors. Yes one of them will get to the finals because that's what the format does.
Any Eastern team who makes the Finals is a contender. The GSW can only beat themselves. That functionally means a catastrophic injury to Draymond Green. They can lose anyone else and mostly work around it. But not Green.
What every NBA team is doing is hoping for the Warriors to suffer some major injuries. Right place, right time, and your chance is there. Michael Jordan said something painful and true to Patrick Ewing - I was gone for two years ( gambling "retirement"), that was your chance.
If the Dubs lost Green, the Raptors would be very very tough. Just given the marketing push, the refs would hard roll the Dubs. That aside, they are a very good team, a deep team, and it would come down to their offensive efficiency ( Can you shoot at a historic rate for four games?)
