2 days from now, we will know the winner of the Suns vs Mavericks game, I like to read your advance insights on the upcoming WCF.

Warriors are back again, if they'll face the Suns, I think they'll be the underdog, but if they'll face the Mavericks, they are the obvious favorites.
Cheer for your team now, what team do you think will be in the NBA Finals?

As someone who has been cheering for GSW ever since 2016, my money is with them throughout this palyoff run!

I really think that Warriors has the capability of winning this playoffs given the nature of their experiences, individual skillset, group chemistry, and great shooting. While Curry may be somehow inconsistent in this run, with the return of Klay it somehow solidified their position as a contender for this playoffs. I just think that with the support Curry has with the surrounding talent he got with his teammates, and Wiggins getting consistent, GSW has the potential of winning!

Betting on a team who did and became a back-to-back champion few years ago is certainly not a bad idea at all, especially when they still have that strong line-up who doesn't change at all mainly the Splash Brothers. Now there's some new additional asset on the team including Jordan Poole who made an impressive improvement in the past months of the regular season.

yeah, Poole has really improved this season, he can be the most improved player if Morant was not there. But even if he didn't win, he showed the management and the fans that he is worthy of the minutes the coaching staff have trusted him. His 3-point shooting is good, and not only that, he can also attack the paint because he is very quick.

Mavericks game was good enough to face the other team for now.My predictions will be the mavericks going to win the game of 7.The chemistry of the players in the mavericks was huge as compared to most of the team,which includes the Sun.Warriors are the next extraordinary game in the tournament.So warriors and mavericks gonna rock the final will be huge interesting one.

I feel bad for the Phonix Suns to lose this series since they fought really hard to come up to this point for another chance of winning that NBA Championship which they lose last year. There can't be another chance like this in the future because as we all know, players are prone to injuries when they are getting old and it's really hard to regain back their old selves after that. As for the Mavericks, I'm hoping to see them winning this one because they are young players that are strong and have all the means to win a championship.

Dallas Mavericks established new achievements these playoffs with Luka Doncic on board.

First-time playoffs appearance since 2011
First-time homecourt advantage in the 1st round playoffs since 2011

Even though odds tell me that Phoenix Suns has all the advantages, I want the Mavericks to add some new achievement these playoffs.

Maybe the following:

First-time upsetting a no.1 seed team in the playoffs
First-time reaching the Western Conference Finals since 2011

Who wouldn't love a cinderella story like that? Upsetting Suns the top 1 and beating them in a game 7 thriller away from home and on the road?

Everything still rest on Luka's shoulder in game 7, he need to produce MVP numbers and then have the support of his players like Brunson, Dinwiddie, Bullock and Finney-Smith. It's going to be very difficult but not impossible to do.

I don't think that they will be the underdog regardless of which team they face.

They have way too much experience and CP3 is too old in my opinion to make noise. Booker is still relatively inexperienced compared to the Warrior trio that has been around for virtually a decade now.

Hard to bet against the Dubs honestly - their team chemistry is amazing.

Hard to know. Each game of Suns vs Mavs are just the same intensity with either of them standing out. My bet is on the Mavs, but it's not wise to count out Suns either. It's tough to defeat them on the last 2 quarters of the game because they're ramping up their defense and they're just tough to go around by then. We need some of that Luca magic for the Mavs to pull through, but whichever the result is, the Warriors can take them head-on with the way the three guys (Curry, Thompson, Poole) is playing right now.

Dallas is on a good momentum right now but of course Suns is not giving up yet

There's no momentum if you're following this series. They just cancel each other's win in the previous game.

Neither team will put up a good fight against the Warriors. They will get two wins at best. I had hopes for the Suns but they are already struggling against Luka's team. What more against Curry, Thompson, and the surging Poole?

I think it will still be the Suns vs Warriors in the Western Conference finals. If statistics will hold true, the home court team will win the game 7 and that is the Suns.

And so it will be a great battle between Steph and CP3 and Booker will be a problem for the Warriors. Nevertheless they have players that can defend Booker. But let's wait for the outcome of the Suns vs Dallas first. This could be one of the biggest upset though, if Mavs wins tonight.

Actually, in a Game 7 pressured game series, homecourt is just a slight advantage. I know both teams are winless playing against the crowd. Suns are dominant on their homecourt while Mavericks are likewise too. But that doesn't guarantee that Suns is an automatic winner.

Another thing I want to happen is the big recognition for the Mavericks once they upset the strongest team in this season.

It's been a while since the number 1 seed is being eliminated in the playoffs round.

Thompson was a key player for Warriors in the whole conference and because of that, they are able to go back to the WCF. If Thompson will be more healthy, I'm pretty sure who ever wins with SUNS/MAVS they are more ready to face it. Warriors will take the championship again this may not look easy but the way they are playing right now, it looks like a whole team effort. Mavs is also a good player, but for this one I will go for the SUNS and give them a chance to enter in WCF again because they miss it last year and for sure they really want it right now.

Thomspon and curry are carrying currently the team and they are the main key if they will even win NBA overall. They look so good that i dont see any team in the nba stopping them. Plus with poole and wiggins they look amazing

Dallas is on a good momentum right now but of course Suns is not giving up yet and whoever wins on this and go to the WCF, Warriors should be ready because these two teams are very dangerous. Warriors did a great job on their last game with a home court advantage, if they continue to play like that most probably they can get the Championship,

Yeah, Warriors are already waiting for the winner of the Suns/Mavericks series, and we will find that out tomorrow.
Odds are out early so people could start betting, and since no changes on the betting odds, most likely there are good action on both sides.

Despite of the high spread and the result of game 6, Dallas still remained as an underdog in the last game, so let's see what would happen.

this is an interesting conference so many surprises.

Yes because Nets and Lakers did not make it this far, they were the favorites to win the NBA championship.

I will get back here with my analysis once we have the winner between Dallas Mavericks and Phoenix Suns.

Personally, I will go to Dallas Mavericks for a change. Then I will bet again on them against the Golden State Warriors. It's time now for the Dallas Mavericks' comeback at the Conference Finals and NBA Finals.

That's another surprise that would happen in the NBA if Dallas will indeed reach the NBA Finals.
As of now, the odds for Dallas to win is @25, might as well take it before the game 7 will start.

Quote from: goinmerry on May 14, 2022, 03:46:02 PM

But to make my statement valid, Mavericks needs to beat the Suns first. Cheesy

Note mate, take your time, Dallas might pull an upset here, it's not impossible though.

Mavericks are doing their best to get into the WCF, it’s very unfortunate for Suns if they lose again on this conference without reaching the finals since last conference they are still the number one team but fell short. I’ll go for Mavericks on this since the momentum is with them and it will be more exciting to see Warriors vs Mavericks. Warriors have more time to prepare right now and hopefully, they can get the title again.
