NBA Conference Finals Predictions

Western Conference Finals

Portland Trail Blazers Vs Golden State Warriors

I’ve really enjoyed watching this playoff run by the Trail Blazers because they have been playing some amazing team basketball. Damian Lillard has been a great leader who plays with ice in his veins and continues to prove he is one of the best point guards in the league. The Trail Blazers go hard in the paint, grabbing all the rebounds and that has played a huge role in this playoff run! Unfortunately for them they are about to face off against the defending Champions, who continue to play at a high level and dominate everyone they face! Even with a hobbled Kevin Durant the Trail Blazers still have no shot because the Warriors are too deep and too good to lose to anyone in this league right now! I expect the Blazers to battle in this matchup, but they ain’t gonna win this war!

Eastern Conference Finals

Toronto Raptors Vs Milwaukee Bucks

FINALLY…AN EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS WITHOUT LEBRON!!!! LeBron had to move to the Western Conference to give the rest of the East a chance to compete and make the Eastern Conference interesting for a change during the postseason. We have a great matchup on deck between the Bucks and Raptors. Kawhi Leonard continues his playoff tear by outscoring everyone on the court, even his own teammates know just give the ball to Kawhi! He is clutch and chances are he is going to knock the shot down every time he touches the ball, we saw that in game 7 against Philadelphia, as well as in the first round against Orlando, and oh yeah, how about a few years ago when he played for San Antonio and was the Finals MVP! He’s a killer and the Bucks better be prepared for what Kawhi is about to bring. Giannis is also playing at an insane level this season. He has absolutely dominated every single team in the postseason, but this will be a different beast than the previous two teams that the Bucks have faced. The edge in this matchup is Kawhi Leonard. Right now I feel he can’t be stopped. He is playing at a high level and while the Bucks are tough on the defensive side of the ball, I don’t believe they will be able to handle Kawhi.
