The NBA playoffs are still ongoing. With that said, the Finals feel like they’re already set.
They aren’t. Both Conference Finals series’ are ongoing. With that said, the score in each is 3-0. No team has ever come back from that deficit.
Nobody should be shocked to see the Denver Nuggets with that type of lead on the Los Angeles Lakers. This one could have gone either way.
The Nuggets have simply emerged as the superior squad so far.
On the other hand, the Miami Heat’s stranglehold on the Boston Celtics has come as a shock. This is a major underdog success story.
Perhaps most impressively, they’ve built this lead without Tyler Herro.
Could they flip him for Bradley Beal this summer?
