2022 Conference Finals Predictions.

Eastern Conference

Miami vs. Boston

With Boston's injuries to Smart and Horford, I'll give the edge to Miami. I've been using injuries a lot in these playoffs, and they haven't really mattered as much as I thought they would.

But I guess I'll continue, lol.

Miami has the best player, Boston has the best team.

This should be a low scoring series. Herro has a shot at MVP.

Miami in 6, Boston wins games 2, 4.

Larry Bird MVP: Butler.

Western Conference

Golden State vs. Dallas

Both of these teams are similar.

Golden State thinks they're Globetrotters, and turn it over too much.

Draymond Green on Doncic (or whoever on Doncic) will result in a lot of Dallas FTs.

Meanwhile, Golden State rarely draws fouls.

Dallas in 6

Magic Johnson MVP: Doncic.

People keep talking about how the Heat are very disrespected or overlooked, for a # 1 seed.

People might have said the same about the 2020 - 2021 Utah Jazz, but they didn't get far enough to get overlooked.

Is this going to make 5 blowouts in a row, in the conference finals?

 

[nuraman00]

The Strus juice is loose.

Steals:

Miami 15, Boston 1.

 

[nuraman00]

Tatum out with an injury. Brown cuts it to 7.

 

[nuraman00]

Golden State keeps easily making short passes down the middle, near the rim.

 

[nuraman00]

Golden State with 26 straight series played with a road win. The Heat had one in 23 from 2011 - 2020.

@MHSL82, do you like it when teams trail 18 - 1 until 3:21 left in the first?

@MHSL82, do you like it when teams trail 18 - 1 until 3:21 left in the first?

Not as much as 19-1 or 17-1.

 

[nuraman00]

Miami has lead all game.

Boston takes their first lead, 94-97.

Why couldn't we get more games like this, during the series?
