The NBA Eastern Conference Finals. Who is the Real King of the East?

Let the Games Begin!

In a few hours from now begins what can be the defining moment for both teams. Cavaliers who dominated the Eastern conference in the past years are in a roll especially during the playoffs. Celtics however is an emerging team that played to its full potential. They have the best record in the East however,  Cavs beat them 3 out of 4 games during the regular season meetings. So the odds favor the Cavs at this moment. Nonetheless, Celtics and Isiah Thomas has their backs against the wall many times during the playoffs and they have come out victorious each time. My bet is for them to again surprise everybody on this series.

Teams' Royal Pedigree.

Celtics certainly has bright future ahead of them as they have over achieved most expectations this season. Moreover with the first draft choice pick secured this year and also early first round draft choice next year they are on a very bright spot to build a formidable team out to be perennial title contender on the next decade. 

Being the most dominant team in the East and has produced many legends in the past decades, they have a strong legacy to the claim of being real the king of the East and they are just returning to claim the throne. 

However, Cleveland and King James will not just roll the carpet for this upsurging team . They are the reigning ruler of the NBA land. Knowing how competitive Cleveland organization has become they will certainly "Defend the Land" and will make life difficult for anyone who will threaten their reign. 

The Game Prediction.

Bookmakers certainly favor the Cleveland Cavaliers to win the series. Even NBA on TNT's commentators are one in saying that Cavaliers will dominate the Celtics. 

But I like what Kenny Smith pointed out in this show, that the reason why Cavaliers may have been inconsistent in their regular season performance is that some teams have found ways to defend them. And knowing Celtics line up of physical and rugged defenders they have a bright chance to put up hell of a performance and beat Cavaliers in some or majority of the games.

I know a lot of people may not agree with me, but what I am seeing is Celtics winning the series in Game 6 or 7.

Bold prediction. I think Boston will win maybe 1 game :). Few hours before kick off. Can not wait. Voted.

Yes it is quite bold, but is innate to most of us to cheer for the underdog :)

King James!
Or else he wouldn't be king :)

Yes Cavs and the King are the reigning ruler of the NBA land... but is that going to change this season or in the next few years?

The king surely has some more years to come before even thinking of abdicating

Yes King James won't give up the throne without the fight... but the odds of creating a super team in the coming years is with the Boston Celtics right now.
