Finals Prediction Thread

[Who]

I'll go for NYK in 7 games.

I have no idea what to expect from this series. I am listening to Chris Mannix and Rachel Nichols now and I like what they were saying about the series. (1) We know who San Antonio are (2) We do not know who the Knicks are. That makes it hard to predict. SAS would have strolled through the East in similar dominant fashion if they were in the East instead of the West. NYK has also had a red hot shooting steak that is going to burst at some point.

I have seen a few people going for NYK. Jason Timpf of Hoops Tonight said Knicks in 6 but he was only 55-45 in terms of who wins the series. I saw Jim Jackson pick NY in 6. I have seen quite a few Knicks in 6 predictions. And I have seen others who think it will be a Spurs rout.

Anyway, I will go for NY in 6 or 7 but there is a lot of wishing and hoping in that prediction. Still I feel they matchup well with SAS. I like the many people who are pointing out that OG Anunoby is a great matchup for Stephon Castle. I also like Brunson much more against SAS than I do SGA. SGA was a strange outlier because he can't shoot from outside. If that was Luka instead of Shai, OKC would have won the series. I also think if that was Brunson instead of Shai, OKC would have won the series.
