Top 5 series we could see in the 2022 NBA Playoffs: 4. Mavericks vs. Nuggets
While the Warriors vs. Lakers matchup would be fun for the sake of storylines, this one would be fun because of the players on the court – Luka Doncic and Nikola Vucevic.
A full series of Doncic and Jokic facing off against each other would be electric, as they are two of the best international players in the league right now.
Plus, out of all the players in the NBA, these two might just be carrying their teams more than anyone else (outside of maybe Joel Embiid). So watching them battle every night would be extremely fun.
On any given night one (or both) of them could be putting up a 30-point triple-double. From purely a talent perspective, it doesn’t get much better than Doncic and Jokic.
Top 5 series we could see in the 2022 NBA Playoffs: 3. Bucks vs. Cavaliers
Is this an extremely weird pair of teams? Absolutely. But it would make for an extremely interesting, and there’s one main reason why – the big men.
The Cleveland Cavaliers have made headlines this season because no one expected them to be as good as they are. And the main attraction for the Cavs has been their twin towers – Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley.
Now, imagine that frontcourt being tasked with stopping Giannis Antetokounmpo in a seven-game series. The clash in the paint would be of epic proportions.
Would the Milwaukee Bucks be heavily favored in the matchup? Probably. But that wouldn’t take away from how entertaining the games would be.
