NBA Conference Finals Bracket (Odds, Picks, Predictions)
Game. Series. Over!
The 2022 NBA Playoffs Semifinal Round has already ended with an unexpected dark horse – The Dallas Mavericks. After a hard-fought series, the Golden State Warriors, Dallas Mavericks, Boston Celtics, and Miami Heat will be advancing to their respective conference finals en route to an NBA Finals appearance. These teams are already preparing for a bloodbath because, at this time of the year, it sure is an all-out war in the NBA. With that being said, who do you think is coming out alive in their conferences? Let’s find out!

The Warriors have gone on this tough road many times in the past. Meanwhile, this is Dallas’ first Conference Finals appearance since 2011 (Dirk Nowitzki’s championship run). As a result, Luka and the Mavs will be battling a battle-tested Steph, Klay, Draymond, and Dubs nation. To add, Luka should take note that this Warriors team is far better than the Phoenix Suns team he just beat in the 2nd round. With a healthy and complete Warriors death line-up and the Mavs having their best basketball year thus far, it’s going to be a long series.
Our Pick on who’s going to win the series: Golden State Warriors in 7 games

2 years ago, this same Boston Celtics team faced the Miami Heat in the Conference Finals in the 2020 Playoffs in the Orlando bubble. Unfortunately, the Celtics fell short to the Heat (4-2) in that series. Now, both these teams are back in the spotlight once again to prove who’s the best team in the East today. Boston and Miami both pride themselves on their defensive prowess. It’s tough to choose between these two teams and even though Miami has the better chance to win this series, Tatum and the Celtics could give you a run for your money.
