The Official NBA Thread: Celtics Lead 1-0 in the NBA Finals | Lakers Targeting Dan Hurley

I think the Suns are the favorites on paper. I have two reservations are:

1. Teams have huge roster changes mid-season rarely win titles. It usually takes time to assimilate new superstars

2. Phoenix's top three players are all injury prone. What is the likelihood that CP3, Booker and Durant make it through 3 playoff rounds healthy?

Phoenix gave up all their defense and depth for offensive firepower. Outside of Cam Payne, who else can contribute?

Rotations get shorter in the playoffs. Can always run cpee and Ayton. Durant been carrying family men for a while. Same with Booker as a playmaker.

Depth won’t be an issue
