The Los Angeles Lakers would defeat the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA Finals.
The Los Angeles Lakers and Milwaukee Bucks are the two best teams in the NBA. The Bucks appear destined to be in the NBA Finals this year as it is hard to imagine the team losing in the Eastern Conference side of things before the Finals.
The Lakers have a tougher road to the NBA Finals, as they have to get past the other top-three team in the league, the Los Angeles Clippers. But there are three specific reasons why we think that the Lakers will end up getting the job done against the Clippers.
That would likely lead to a Lakers-Bucks matchup, which would be a fresh matchup for NBA fans. The Lakers have not been to the NBA Finals in a decade, although LeBron James is a constant staple, and the Bucks have not been to the NBA Finals since 1974.
The Bucks are no easy foe and the Lakers are going to have to play great basketball to win the NBA Championship. Giannis Antetokounmpo is the best player in the league right now and the Bucks have been the best team.
However, the last time we saw these two teams the Lakers walked away with the victory and I think we would see the exact same thing happen in a seven-game series.
While it is far from a guarantee, here are the three reasons why I think the Los Angeles Lakers would get past the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA Finals.
