I don't think it would be a sweep. NBA is dictated mostly by Vegas. They already made huge money on the back of Cleveland. Now they are going to make some more money on sweep which will not happen. Plus another extra game at the GS arena. Lots of money for the owner.
At the end of the day, it is all about MONEY.

The only knock is is size. 6-3, 180. That is not 2 guard size. He would go up against, 6-5/6-6 210. His vertical leap of 32 inches make it up a lot.
Knicks made a big mistake not taking Monk. The gain is for Charlotte. He will light up the NBA with his mid range jumpers. Almost automatic.

It is not a healthy thing to see two teams going into the finals every year. Too establishment kinda thing...more like the way the politics of the country is viewed.
Need to shake stuff up.
I heard Rondo was going to another team again. Is that true?

Even though I am not a B-ball fan (that's Basketball for you layfellas) there is absolutely nothing like sheer delight in watching a master perform. Loved it! Steph Curry show. And for those who watched it, just imagine the situational presence a player must possess for the under the leg assist to shoot a three.. lemme find a link.
1st round is over. Nuggets move on to the second round after 7th game series. Spurs are out. Blazers without their top player should win this one. Nuggets have home field though.
So Boston made a fool out of Bucks in game 1 @Milwakee. Paul Pierce an Ex-Boston player says the series is over. I think not. Lets go Greek freak. Show what you are made of.
76ers are all talk as it seems.
Warriors - floppers. Warriors up by one. Bad officiating. Everyone in the NBA shoots to score. The beard shoots to have contact and go to the free throw line. That would not work in the playoffs.

If Simmons could shoot mid range jumpers Sixers would be the team to beat in the East. At the minimum he needs to learn how to make free throws. Embiid got injured at the worst possible time and now requires 6-7 treatments a day just to get on the court. I think this series will go 7 games. Speaking of hope, I'm hoping the Knicks will win the Zion Williamson sweepstakes this summer and have KD and Kyrie join him next season

Out of the blue the 76ers prove me wrong. The playoffs starts after the road team wins one. East in full mode of playoffs. West - strolling along.
I saw a funny comment in the internet. What are blazers missing in the second round? "Westbrook". I thought that was hilarious.

^ if Embiid stays healthy I think Sixers could actually win in 6. They have four all star talents. As good as Kawhi is he's got only Siakam playing at that level. Ben Simmons has been their 4th best performer in these playoffs, I can't see how Raptors will counteract when he eventually has his breakout game. You may be in for a pleasant surprise in this series
