Odds
Golden State Warriors – 8/13
Boston Celtics – 5/2
Prediction
Golden State have a number of winners in their team given their three championships between 2015 and 2018. Boston have a richer history with 17 championship victories but are without a triumph since 2008 and you fear that could play on their minds as the series approaches its climax. 4-2 to Golden State Warriors.
