Bold Prediction: an Eastern Conference team will play a Western Conference team in the NBA Finals
That’s a bold prediction let’s see if it works out for him
Wow that is a groundbreaking take but when you think about it it somewhat makes sense
Idk if that’ll happen for sure but I could see it happening
Naaa man u wildin, there's no way this happens
I'll one up that. Whoever scores more points will win and LeBron will flop at least once.
Bold Prediction: Naz Reid
Not that bold, he been balling all season. Don't expect him to stop now. Wouldn't be surprised if he played more minutes than KAT throughout the playoffs.
Naz Reid is a bad ass MO FO.
The Bucks can survive without Giannis if Doc Rivers just makes a few smart adjusbwahahahahahah... ahahaa I couldn't do it.
🤣🤣🤣
Saying a new face will win the title is not bold at all. Celtics have an easy path to the chip, and 4 out of the top 5 teams in the West have a legit shot too.
Bold Prediction: Basketball will be played.
Not incredibly bold, however I like the prediction nonetheless.
The only reason the Lakers will be back to the finals is because Silver and refs want so.
My thoughts exactly!
That Celtics drivel is a reminder to me of your Sixer Fan leanings.
Celtics are the most oversold team in history they suck
There are 2 options for the Bucks: First Round Exit or Finals Champion. There is no middle ground with this team, especially with Giannis out
1st round exit, take it or leave it
@@chrilpy honestly, you’re right. My guess, Giannis doesn’t play in this years playoffs. Either the bucks lose round 1, or this injury is worse than we thought
Bro what they are not beating Boston in 7 game series even if dame turns into blazers dame and Giannis turns into 2021 Giannis
@@hughjass4380 Boston isn’t a threat as long as they’re dependent on Tatum and Brown. No one on that team is a threat after game 82.
@@hughjass4380 Unless Tingus Pingus averages 30 and Horford hits 4 or more 3s per game, there's no guarantee the Celtics with get past the 1st Round, especially against their archnemesis Big Bad Jimmy Butler.
I just have one prediction…lakers get swept or at best gentlemanly swept in the first round, folks get hyped they had some wins towards the end of the season but forget it was against not strong teams. But believe what ya will, we’ll see what’s good soon enough. 🤘🏼
Bold prediction: Charlie Villanueva
Who ever wins out of 76ers vs Heat makes the conference finals. I say 76ers win that play in game 111-106
These are not bold. Bold is me saying lebron will score zero points in game one.
Or klay thompson
The NBA will do all they can w/o being too noticeable to help Lebron and LA go to the finals. Remember guys the NBA is kinda like the WWE .
I'm a fool but my bold prediction is the Lakers are going to beat the Nuggets
It’s gotta be the winner of sixers heat, lakers will not beat denver
A team that goes out in the first round will draft bronny james to get lebron
EDIT: it's likely going to be the highest seed. Eg if the knicks lose to the 7th seed my money will be on them burning a late 1st to get him
That's is never going to happen in a million years 😂 the Knicks just don't need LeBron or his son lmao. Why would Bronny go to the NBA just to be embarrassed and be made a spectacle of? The kid isn't even close to being ready for the NBA.. No shame on him putting his name in the draft just to see how he fairs against that competition in pre draft stuff but after experiencing that level of competition he will go back to school with some more experience and hopefully have some good years in college.. Because let's be honest right now.. He's been a straight up bad college player so far at almost every level besides wide open 3s and even then it's not great.
@EDTheOneable well, we are about to find out.
You say they don't need LeBron, but if they lose in the first round after finishing 2nd I would beg to differ.
Let's be real they wouldn't be signing bronny for bronny. They would be doing it because they are a win now team, they have 2 late first round picks and if they were to sign bronny it means they could get lebron for a massive pay cut.
I'll comeback here after nuggets vs celtics finals and a nuggets repeat 😂😂😂
😂 that would be funny reply to this comment if so
You mean another Nuggets v Heat matchup? I honestly don't see what ppl see in the Celtics, they're just waiting for Tatum to choke and Brown to try his darnedest just get blamed for Tatum's disappearance.
Yeah folks sleeping on Cetics and Nuggets are smoking that good good hopium. Folks get amnesia how this season went already? Ha
@@streettoughfightingjust like the years before, good in regular season, bombs out in the playoff. Nothing is new here.
Nuggets are gonna miss Bruce Brown this playoffs. My guess Jokic or Murray gets “hurt” and Lakers take the West.
Especially when good or great teams are unfortunately in the play in😂
Bucks will be Docs last Coaching job…
Oh wait we were to make bold predictions? Nevermind
My prediction is that they will rig every single freaking game!
Respect for Chelsea. If she manages to flip on Dom&Wendel she wins. She was so good positioned with the girls and she was the biggest jury threat by far. She wins against laurel, kellyn, des, jenna, Sebastian and even donathan.
Also, Alison is so so so underrated as well. If she touches f3 in that end game she more than likely wins (besides maybe with christian). And besides that, she lost control at mid merge and EVEN than managed to be one of the last standing and played really great from the bottom for some couple votes.
OKC, stay locked in young fellas🔥⚡️
I’m insane enough to say that we will see a Heat vs Mavs finals.. I’m not confident lol but I’m willing to say it
Yes, you are insane.
76ers have the best chance to make your 1st prediction real so far. If heat beats CHI/ATL and goes up against the Celtics, ECF has the possibility of a 76ers-Heat rematch.
I don’t even think a team in the west making the wcf from the play in is a hot take honestly but I think if it happens in the east it’ll definitely shock some people.
Doc is working on a secret plan to defeat the Pacers in the 1st round.
How can you have the Celtics missing the finals AND the bucks out in the first round? I’m not sure that more than one other eastern conference team could win the conference
It literally just happened last year. An 8th seed beat both of those teams.
@@Chargercj7 Miami and Philadelphia are the only other teams that could realistically make the finals but I don’t see that happening bc Miami have to go through Boston and embiid is a choker
Bold prediction: the Lakers free throw discrepancy over their opponents will be MORE than their margin of victory in the playoffs, carrying on a long and storied tradition of the NBA helping them win games.
Damn Jimmy butler got hurt last night
Yes it's possible but I think for the sport it would be the most ideal for Boston to win the East. They're the only team in the East that wont get absolutely killed by anyone in the west. Not saying they will make it out, but I think everyone should be hoping they do if they want a fun finals and not a repeat of last season's.
here after jimmy butler
According to my obv expert opinion, depending on if Miami wins their play in game itll be either Denver vs Boston or my pick Denver vs Miami with Miami winning game seven in the finals
Miami won't make it out of the first round
I suppose well have to see what goes down
Miami is not doing nothing this year . They aren’t on a roll like last year before playoffs
@@lakritz1987 Im not worried about what they did last year, OKC had one of the best turn arounds in league history but a team like that is too inexperienced and young to make a push, Miamis rostet has a nice balance of young yalent and vets is why I think they way I do, I think theyll make plenty of noise this year and if not then I was wrong and Ill accept it with no argument
@@lakritz1987 welp there ya have it, you were right, Miami is done for the year
Thumbs up on the first three predictions but I believe the C’s will be in the finals.
Espn playoff bracket schedule already had Celtics playing Heat before the Bulls vs Hawks game 😂😂
Bold prediction: Boston will win at least one game in the playoffs
The team that wins the nba finals this year hasnt won a chip within the last 5 years
Sounds right. Go Celtics!
No mention of the Knicks. We see you
Yeah I’m not a Knicks fan but they just got pretty healthy and deep because of it so could be a hell of a run for them. 🤘🏼
@@streettoughfightingstill missing our 2nd best player
@@jamesedwards1284he’s a now show this time of year anyways though. Honestly relying on our depth and Brunson and not Randle is going to make us better. I know that sounds crazy but can you recall a time where Julius Randle was the difference maker for our team when it mattered most? My only memory was game 1 vs the Cavs last year and he no showed rest of the way from there
@@JeffGonyo julius was injured last year during the playoffs. He played very well this season and we are defo gonna miss those 25-10
@@jamesedwards1284 My point though is that those are regular season stats. You’re assuming he would do that in the post season when he hasn’t yet. And we’ve played without him since February so we know our identity without him. We will see though, Philly is a scary first round match up either way
If you go off these predictions 6 teams in the East could win and 4 teams in the west could win.
Boston Celtics will meet with Chicago Bulls in the playoffs. You'll see
The bulls would have to win twice. Once in either Miami or Philly.
Bold prediction:the raptors won’t be in playoffs
Bold Prediction: Lakers beat the Nuggets in 7
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
With the way Jokic and Murray shoot against the Lakers, that one is bold, underlined, and italicized 😂😂😂
Bold prediction: the Lakers win the chip and the Thunder make it to the conference finals
If the refs keep pushing the lakers they definitely may be champions
Bold prediction: Miami will sweep the fuck out of Boston in the first round without Butler.
I tell you what once my knickerbockers move on to the second round I'm going to come looking for you I hope you can humble yourself
Bucs gonna get swept. It’s gonna be the mavs vs either the Celtics or heat. I’m a Celtics fan so I’m paying they win it all but tatum chokes in the play offs/ finals. Whoever comes out of the west is gonna win it and the mavs got the most momentum rn
Pacers beat bucks in 6. Pacers beat Celtics in 7 in rd 2...Pacers lose to knicks in 6 in ecf. Knicks lose to Denver in 5 in finals.
Boy, I will be so glad when my Knicks move on to the ECF and silence the critics.
id pick the knicks over the celtics
Playoff basketball !!!
Go Knicks ☝️
You are completely wrong over what you said about Luka. He will have the recognition over how great he is, the one who has the pressure is the Mavs as an association. Luka can leave here soon to a contending team. The mavs have had plenty of time to make something happen so we will see.
BUT, mavs in 5!
FUCK IT .. KNICKS WILL WIN IT ALL !
Bucks 1st round exit is not bold. They lost 4 out of 5 games against the Pacers, their only win coming from Giannis scoring 64 and he’s injured now. The Pacers are just a better team and their coach is infinitely better
Pacers also did that before adding siakam too.
Jimmy isn't playing in the play-in game =\
Bucks one isn't a bold take since no Giannis
U on drugs if you think the Lakers beating Denver
Keep sleeping on the Knicks. Putting them like they are nothing
Wild take: Bucks blow a 3-1 lead to the Pacers. Not a real post season unless Doc is out there doing Doc things.
Wild take on the Celtics, arguable dumb take
76 will get to the final
Clearly not a Celtics fan. So much hate
#4 isn’t a hot take.
None of these really are except maybe the 1st one
I cant wait for the Knicks to send the 76ers packing early maybe then these Philly fans will learn respect
Minnesota Timberwolves swept the entire NBA! Thats a bold prediction.
😂
@@dhonduptenzin4522 🤷🏾♂️🤣 I was wrong.
No way! Clippers are going to the Finals.
Bro you going mad crazy hatin on the Knicks so much. SMH.
Denver back to back champs a new dynasty
Miami or Philly will not beat the Knicks.... And I wouldn't call the Pacers an 'elite defensive'..lololol.. Stay away from online betting..
Magic win it all…
Bucks out early
76ers win the east
If the 76ers win against the heat and Joel stays healthy, they are going to the finals.
I think the West final will be between Dallas and the Nuggets
76ers beating celtics ina 7 game series is delusional i’d take heat over celtics and 76ers
@ethanluedke3165 yeah, that's why is said they have to beat the heat so they play the 2nd seed (knicks).
If they lose to the heat but beat the bulls/hawks I don't see them beating the celtics in the first round...they need momentum first.
@@ethanluedke3165that's delusional
@@ethanluedke3165lol heat are trash
@@theetruth8626 lol heat already beat celtics ina 7 game series last year and celtics beat 76ers who had a better team last year than this year ina 7 game series any non casual trusting jimmy over embiid in the playoffs although jimmy hurt now so they season over
Just rename the title to “sixers will make the finals” then lmao. That’s literally wat you’re insinuating
If the Lakers beat Nuggets, they will be in the finals
Ur Philly bias is awful
1️⃣
No
Lakers run the west
Heat back in the Finals, book it 👀
How that's working out
Lakers shouldnt be abywhere near the playoffs
Bold prediction: an NBA team will win the finals
Staying optimistic about LAL, hoping we can get past the Nuggets this time.
If we can, the rest is history.
this guy’s takes are awful. miami over ny? they’re the third worst clutch time offense in basketball only behind the wizards and pistons. bottom 10 offensive team overall. they’re getting gentleman swept by the knicks if they get the 7 seed. do your research buddy.
I don’t know why you’re worried about the heat the Sixers are gonna beat the Knicks
Same team that made the Finals last year as an 8 seed and beat the Knicks in the process. Like I’m taking the Knicks in the series but damn don’t count the Heat out
Lmao heat in 5 book it
I will say that if it’s the Sixers playing the Knicks then they have 0 chance. I overall disagree with his take that any of these play-in teams will go far
💀 regular season stats are CRAZY. Knicks lose in 6 against Phili and Miami
Celtics are winning the finals
Lakers gonna get swept in the first round lmao
lol I hope not
💯💯💯
Miami going back to the finals
Lakers is not beating the nuggets..Denver will be on that a**
