Ladies and Gentlemen, Stephen A. Smith has changed his mind.
The ESPN First Take host announced on the show Monday morning that his original prediction of the Sixers going to the Eastern Conference Finals just wasn't enough.
Based on what he's seen through the first four games of the seven game series against the Miami Heat, Smith actually has the Sixers getting past LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers, punching their ticket to the NBA Finals.
Seeing Stephen A. Smith jump on the Sixers bandwagon in the playoffs is awfully fulfilling, unlike Skip Bayless and especially Colin Cowherd, who is still the biggest Sixers hater on the planet.
With LeBron James and the Cavs struggling to get out of the first round with the Indiana Pacers, series tied at 2, Stephen A. seems to be a lot more comfortable with the prospect of the Sixers getting out of the East, especially after how they've played against the Miami Heat in the first round.
Guess I'm officially not the only person in the world to pick the Sixers to go all the way to the Finals this year.
