The Heat and Lakers have punched their tickets to the 2020 NBA Finals. Prior to the start of the series, we wanted to take the pulse of Rip City in regards to their predictions for the upcoming tilt between Miami and Los Angeles.
The first poll question, at least by my guess, should not be close. But LeBron James’ wide-reaching popularity has surprised me in the past.
