Confidence Picks: Warriors & Celtics Cruise To Finals, Madrid Wins In EL

The end is near. Of course, we're talking about the end of basketball season. It’s nearly June, the Conference Finals are in full swing, and the NBA Draft is a month away. Before you know it, we will be overreacting to rookies and second-year players dominating the Summer League only to be brought back down to earth when they are the talk of the town come trade deadline. 

Until then, here are the five things we are most confident will happen. 

Confidence Picks presented by Rocket Mortgage by Quicken Loans 

  1. The Cleveland Cavaliers will only win one game in Cleveland, and the Eastern Conference Finals will be wrapped up in Boston in five games.
  2. The Golden State Warriors will only lose two more games the rest of the NBA Playoffs—neither of those losses will come from the Houston Rockets.
  3. Luka Dončić will be selected first overall by the Phoenix Suns in the 2018 NBA Draft.
  4. The Sacramento Kings will gladly take Deandre Ayton at No. 2 overall.
  5. Real Madrid will win the EuroLeague Championship this weekend (LIVE on FloHoops) bringing home their 10th Continental Cup.
