Playoff prediction contest

I would prefer to see any team from the east win it over the Warriors. I liked their underdog-ish story the past few years, organic growth and all that, then they went and got KD, who is ring-chasing and coat-tailing and I don't think he or they deserve anything for it. This super-team trend needs to be curtailed somehow. It messes up the game. Might as well just let the teams bid on all-stars and whoever gets the highest bid gets the all-stars then those 4 teams play in the "playoffs". It would be total ******** but at least it would be up front about it, better than the ******** it is now. Would it be going too far to hope they all get career-ending injuries in their next game?

Nah. Let GSW's legend grow. It will be that much sweeter when we beat them in a season or two.
 
Exactly. It's the only realistic assumption. San Antonio gets in trouble after it's discovered that their recent D-League pickup, Dim Tuncan is an impostor! They vacate their wins, Jazz advance, and ultimately win the title.

That's totally classless and completely uncalled for.

2 season enders would be more than enough, and I want those guys to have long careers of getting beaten over and over again. I wouldn't mind seeing DrayDray get kicked in the head hard enough to put him out for the season with concussion protocol. Ya know, taste of his own medicine type thing. Then maybe Curry has an ankle flare up. Bound to happen. I want KD to stay healthy though, so he can once again enjoy the agony of defeat when he doesn't have those other guys to win stuff for him.
