Game 1 was ugly for both teams but Giannis made it known that he's not fucking around and is basically unstoppable. Kind of like Bucks -125 now but probably am still staying away. Think it goes 6 or 7 regardless, but Boston not looking like the title favorite many in media predicted, can't have superstars lay eggs.

Suns will roll the Mavs, Warriors will have to work but will beat Memphis, think Heat take care of the 76ers when spotted two games without Embiid. LOL Doc Rivers having Embiid in the game at that point to pick up an orbital fracture, joke coach.


Credit to Boston and Tatum for responding, that series was fucking awesome and likely to be better than either ECF/WCF and the finals.

Phoenix implosion was pretty wild. Always lame when injury stuff bubbles up but Chris Paul isn't that horrible without some physical reason.

Think both series prices have moved a fair amount; Golden State opening -250 felt really aggressive and now -220. Think I recall seeing Boston open as a slight favorite and now -175, even with Smart out G1.

Think it ends up Warriors/Celtics, would guess 6 for each. Luka could just be unguardable now but something weird happened with Phoenix and I think GSW has enough of a history to take them down.
