Average Guys' Sports Takes

The Conference Finals are upon us. The Semis were finished up between episodes. The main storyline is the Timberwolves-Nuggets. We break that down and look into what they will face in the Mavs and potentially the Finals. We go into the East, but not as much because we know who will go to the Finals. To round it out, we set our predictions for the Conference Finals and overall Finals.

Of the 4 series left, 3 are 2-2. Boston will probably end up as the gentleman's sweep, but the others are must watch. Denver taking 2 on the road, Mavs and Thunder splitting at each others' houses, and the Pacers giving the Knicks everything they've got. We go over all of it, and what we think will happen.
