If this is SAS's final predictions then the finals will be Jazz vs 76ers

[thegrnte]

I predict that the pistons wont make the finals they just dont have the starpower, can I be paid millions now

[Briana-a]

As a laker fan, if Lakers and Nets meet in the finals...I pray to God Stephen A picks the Nets to win.

[tjsmith]

Who’s here after the Lakers and Nets didn’t make it to the Finals?

[bankdolo]

If Andre Roberson And Shump Get In Condition Nets Have There Wing Defenders And If They Can Get Javale McGee Or Drummond Then They Set.

[mossymoss]

I really hope that we have a lakers vs Nets in the 2021 NBA final

[doctorsam]

Good, so now we can assuredly say that one of these teams aren't making the finals

[traveltwo]

I’m a die hard lakers fan that is born/raised in Brooklyn, NY(still live here) but after AD’s recent injury I’m skeptical about there chances this year. I kind of want to see a Clippers vs. Nets final. Pat Bev, PG13 and Kawhi marching up against Kyrie, Harden and KD?! 👀 Sign me up for a classic 7game series please! 👏👏

[Kelbonobo]

The East has mcuh talent yet Brooklyn and the 76ers are the only teams that are taking advantage of those🤦🏾‍♂️

[ruffinable]

This feels like last year all over again! Willing to bet my last dollar that one of them wont make it

[maljones]

Lebron is undefeated in the finals his 2nd year on new teams .
-2012 heat
-2016 cavs
-2020 Lakers

[roelsodusta]

It would be a good finals series to watch

[herchellejacobs]

Waiting for the firstake after the nets get eliminated by embid's philly 😤
