Bill Simmons: 我认为步行者队更有实力,他们晋级总决赛是实至名归。他们是一支更好的球队,即使凯尔特人队没有受伤,他们也会击败他们。我对西亚卡姆获得东部决赛MVP感到惊讶,我认为哈利伯顿更应得。哈利伯顿就像四分卫一样,掌控着球队的进攻,应该获得MVP。总之,步行者队击败尼克斯队是实至名归的。 Ryen Russillo: 我同意步行者队比尼克斯队更胜一筹。哈利伯顿一旦熟悉了对手,他的体型和传球能力会使对方处于劣势。我对西亚卡姆获得东部决赛MVP感到惊讶,我会投票给哈利伯顿。我不喜欢颁发东西部决赛MVP,这与步行者队的无私精神相悖。如果要颁发,应该颁发东西部季后赛MVP,这样更能体现球员在前三轮的重要性。尼克斯队打球人数少,节奏慢,步行者队利用了这一点。步行者队加快节奏,不断冲击尼克斯队,尼克斯队无法应对。 Van Lathan Jr.: 我认为尼克斯队进入总决赛会更好,因为他们给总决赛带来了很多不同的故事线,他们是一支具有令人难以置信的文化认同感的球队。尼克斯队拥有一个庞大的市场、一个历史悠久的球队和一个渴望胜利的球迷群体。尼克斯队的球迷可能是全国最有趣的球迷群体。步行者队是一支有趣的篮球队,而尼克斯队是一支有趣的文化球队。文化总是胜过篮球。总之,我更希望看到尼克斯队进入总决赛。
