It's there any chance that Phoenix doesn't beat the winner of Atl-Mil in the finals?
Seems like they're destined to win it all.

If Bucks-Hawks keep beating themselves int0 a pulp it could be a sweep by Suns.
That series is tied 2-2. Injuries Will matter but the survivor could emerge healthy.
Suns get rested but lose their edge?
Chris Paul inner self tears his hamstring in game 2 or in practice?
Patric Beverly stalks Jake, from State Farm and Chris is despondent?

Seems like they should be both the better team and in a healthier position. Suns/Bucks is probably the best matchup.

You know I gonna spin wit it

Tgis was the most opportunistic year of any nba season I’ve ever seen. It seems like a series of last man standing. Right now I’d favor suns

Hawks keep surprising me - especially if they hit their 3pt shots and Giannis misses the rest of the series. Don't think the Suns will steamroll either team from the east (again - assuming Giannis / Trae are healthy) - IMO will be close.

If the Hawks make it to the finals, that would be 2 teams that didn't even make the playoffs 9 months ago.

Both teams added 2 key Veterans, CP3 and Crowder, Danilo and Bogdan.

We have every resource we need to level this team to contender next season.

If we can Upgrade 3 spots (Center, Pg, Wing) with all 3 able to play at least 2 positions, we should be right up there with any ELITE team in the league.

I Hope the knicks either move up to the top 10 in the draft, or trade all those picks for a star or 2nd tier veterans.

It makes zero sense to keep late picks that won't see nothing more than garbage minutes at best and fade away on the bench.

If you want to see IQ, OBI and RJ grow, don't add a bunch of young players they can't learn from

every year is like that. Its rare these days when arent big injuries to key players. Also there are a handful of amazing player that simply get hurt all the time. See CP3, Kyrie and Kahwi to name a few. The you have the just unlucky crowd like Denver and now Giannis potentially being out for the duration.

Its why you never worry about beating this team or that team, you be the best and deepest you can be. We are one really good offseason from being flushed with talent and assets to improve for years to come. Obi and IQ at worst are rotation guys. If we could land a couple more in this draft and sign at least another impact guy we could really be cooking for years to come, especially if some of those guys really pop into big time players and I think Mitch has Capella level impact in him if he stays on the court (better defender actually) and RJ is a real wild card. Is he just a good blue collar bucket getter or is he a star?

Like every team that wins it all we will need some luck also. Its exciting rooting for the development of these kids.

Both teams had solid core in place.
Hawks- hunter-Collins-Trae-capella.
Bucks had two time MVP Freak, Allstar Middleton, and Holiday added.

WE started the year with unknown to be good Randle, Rookie RJ, a finally healthy bullock new Burkes, and we got Rose. Now your spewing “Upgrade 3 spots” like you can on Amazon prime? Stop simplifying the process as if you have some exclusive understanding.

Hawks with a healthy Trae could beat them

Trae will probably hobbled for a bit.

The Suns are the healthiest team left… and it’s like CP3, thanks to COVID-19, had a chance to heal his shoulder. I can’t believe cp3 will finally get a chance to grab a ring.

Langston Galloway got to a NBA finals before Porzingis

That is all
