7. NBA Conference Finals predictions (with NBA champion).

Michael: Los Angeles Lakers over Denver Nuggets; Brooklyn Nets over Milwaukee Bucks; Los Angeles Lakers over Brooklyn Nets.

Liam: Western Conference Finals will see the battle of Utah up against Phoenix, with the Jazz prevailing. The Eastern Conference will come down to Brooklyn and Milwaukee, with the Nets taking the Eastern crown. In an unlikely turn of events, Utah will defeat Brooklyn and will give Salt Lake City reason to celebrate.

David: Is it too much to ask that we enjoy the journey rather than worrying about what will happen at the end?

No? Just me?

Ok, fine.

Lakers over Bucks.
