This is the best of outkick the coverage with Clay Travis on Fox Sports Radio.

A substantial underdog against the Sixers as well if the if the Cavs were able to get

past the Raptors.

Here's the challenge that I think the NBA is going to run into.

The Western Conference is going to be awful.

Whether or not until you get to the finals, whether or not you are a jazz fan, whether

or not you are a Pelicans fan, I think if you watched either one of those opening games,

you had to think to yourself, wow, my team is not anywhere near as talented as the warriors

and the rockets are.

And that's without Steph Curry even playing yet.

Remember when Steve Kerr said, hey, I think we could win the title without Steph Curry

even playing.

I think you might well have been right.

We'll see what happens in the Western Conference finals.

But Steph Curry hasn't even played.

And if you watch that first half, I just I don't feel like the Celtics have, I mean, the

Pelicans have any chance at all of winning the series.

And I don't really feel like the jazz have any chance at all of winning the series against

the rockets.

And so I think both those series are going to be over really pretty quick five games.

I'd be surprised if either went six and sweeps wouldn't surprise me at all either.

And so you're going to end up with the Warriors against the Rockets in the Western Conference
