Growing pains continue for my predicted Eastern Conference representatives to the NBA Finals. I don’t expect them to gel for at least a month and they will struggle for the first 20 games or so before they begin to fly.
They looked bad against the Raptors in the fourth quarter and got lucky to squeak past the Knicks but they also have a target on their back. They are the projected team to beat in the East, especially since Lebron cut and ran to the sunny beaches of California though in reaching for the sun there he will soon realize that star is Golden State and he will crash and burn under the searing heat of the Rockets.
