The Suns and Bucks are only in the Finals because the Lakers, Clippers, Nuggets and Nets lost All-Star players to injuries. There has never been a run like this before.
can't 100% guarantee what would've happened without the injuries tbh, sports are sports.
i personally believe if the clippers didnt lose kawhi theyd have won it all but i also cant say it 100% for sure would have happened.
there was also never another season like last season either though. Teams literally lost because of mental health and not wanting to even be in the bubble, look at the bucks pretty much the same team as last year got swept by the heat but this year destroyed them, so mental health clearly plays a role aswell.
i do not think the nuggets would have beat the suns even with murray though, i do think the clippers would have though, but the lakers i have my own personal opinion on that that would probably start arguments so i just won't say shit about them lmao.
as far as the east goes, idk about that either, if bud was a better coach i fully believe the bucks had a great chance of beating a 100% healthy nets just because they could pick on harden who is an obvious choke artist in the playoffs. what happened in the first 2 games was without harden and with kyrie tho there is no saying how dif shit could have been if harden played aswell as kyrie in the first 2 games because what if the bucks just pick on the guy who chokes in the playoffs yearly.
