We are getting really close to the end of regular season. Only a few more games left to be completed. For now Thunder and Cavaliers look really impressive. But I still doubt both of them during playoffs. They were really good last season too but none of them reached the final series.

What do you think about Celtics' chance for a back-to-back championship? They have done really nice during regular season. I think they will find Lakers or Nuggets against themselves in the final series.
Don't sleep on the Cavaliers and Thunder this playoffs. While they may have fallen short in last year's playoffs, they're currently leading their respective conferences for good reason. The Celtics? Of course they remain the title favorites as they're the defending champions with consistent Finals experience. But out West, I don't see the Lakers making noise. My money's on the Warriors to be the team that advances deeper.
I think it's more on the Cavaliers to prove themselves and if Donovan Mitchell can lead a team to the finals. We have seen the when he was in Utah, it was really very deep but it seems that they can't get over after the first round even though in the regular season they are one of the best. So he is here again, the same situation and probably we can compare the players as well as very much similar to the core of Utah back then. So let's see if Mitchell can get over the hump and mentality to finally go into an NBA finals and see if he can bring another ring in Cleveland.
