NBA Playoff Pickem, Finals Edition: The NBA Finals begins tonight when the Milwaukee Bucks face the Phoenix Suns. Tipoff is at 9 p.m. Eastern. Pick the series winner and number of games along with seven props and a tiebreaker. But with the lead NoMich has, it may all be over but the crying.

I'm digging the lack of predictable teams and stars but I wish Giannis was fully healthy. Won't be the same if he misses significant time after game 1.

I blew a giant lead during the regular season pick 'em. Never rule me out for losing.

Damian Lillard is the best player on the court .. even when he isn't on the court.

Ouch. Tells you how closely I follow the NBA.
