The most exciting basketball game of the year. Two teams will collide for the NBA championship in June. You want to see the best game possible, no matter if your team is playing or not. The championship game for an NBA fan is about having a dream matchup between two powerhouse teams. The Eastern Conference vs the West. What two teams you would want to see battle for the NBA title?

Cleveland Cavaliers vs Golden State Warriors - The Cavs are the reigning NBA championships, it's only right for them to defend their title like any other champion would. The Warriors fell short last year in game seven against the Cavs. Since then, the Warriors added Kevin Durant to their monstrous roster. KD loss to LeBron James for the NBA championship and I'm sure it leaves an unsettling taste in his mouth. This will be a dream matchup for the world to enjoy.

Cleveland Cavaliers vs LA Clippers - This dream matchup would host some of the best dunkers in the world. Two of the most explosive teams in basketball clashing for seven straight games for the NBA championship. Chris Paul and Blake Griffin are well overdue for a ring. The Clippers can't get pass key players getting hurt. Nobody really knows what this team can do in the playoffs, coach Doc Rivers can't wait to find out himself. LeBron would have a tough time facing a team like the Clips. DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin combined with the leadership of Chris Paul in an NBA finals game of this caliber, fans would go nuts. The NBA would be on fire if the Clippers could find the strength to make it past the Warriors.

Indiana Pacers vs Oklahoma City Thunder – The NBA wouldn’t be the NBA without a few surprises. There are some fans in the world that love rematches, rival games or repeats. Then you have a certain group that would pay for two new teams to meet for the NBA championship. The Pacers have revamped their team to be offensive minded. They’re ready to compete for the Eastern Conference championship. Paul George is an outstanding player and he’s back to playing like the superstar before the leg injury. Russell Westbrook is the most explosive player in the NBA. His buddy Kevin Durant left him hanging ( you know he did ) for the team that defeated them in the Western Conference finals last year. How would that make you feel? Westbrook wouldn’t want anything more than defeating the Golden State Warriors before winning his first NBA championship.

10 percent chance of these two teams meeting in the finals

Philadelphia 76ers vs LA Lakers – If this could happen, let me be the first person to say, this will be the most watch NBA championship game ever. The NBA has grown since day one and with players like Westbrook, Curry, Harden, James and so on. Who would ever imagine the NO.1 pick vs the NO.2 pick in the NBA draft to face-off for an NBA title. How unbelievably crazy that would be. Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott are showing off for the NFL and sports fans can’t get enough. Ben Simmons and Brandon Ingram face-off in the 2017 NBA championship. Yeah, not happening.

#Adulting is hard.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

Sometimes bigger isn't always better.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

12 Most Annoying Things About Working In Sales

No, I can't help you.

Oakland University

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
