That was my pick I think four days before the season began.

I was a bit worried when Philadelphia had a bad October. But they have looked good since then.

Denver is really good, but so much is wrapped up in health. Murray looks good for a few games and then bad for a few games.
Porter Jr. Is a walking injury risk. But he had a good season.

I could pick apart any team. Relying on James Harden as my finals winner may be a fools errand.

But I could give pros and cons for all 16 teams.

As I said before, it may be wish casting. But I think we are in for a really good playoffs.
I think health is an issue for nearly all the contenders. Do we trust Durant, Paul & Booker to make an entire postseason? James & AD have been brittle. Bucks had the best record despite Giannis & Holiday missing about 15-20 & Middleton playing only about 35. Denver never played Minny w/KAT. Splash Bros have their history. Looks like Clipps don't have PG13. We know about Kahwi.
