When you look at the defensive rating for the last 5 NBA champions.

2020 Lakers: 103.8 

2019 Raptors: 104.3

2018 Warriors: 104.2

2017 Warriors: 101.1

2016 Cavaliers: 102.3 

I don't care how good the Nets offense is, they're not winning a title with a defense like theirs. It's just not happening. They have a chance to improve though with some mid season acquisitions, I don't really see how it'll change their defense drastically enough to shoot this high but maybe it'll be good enough with how good their offense is. 

They might make the Finals because of the East not being as strong at the top, Bud's Bucks are chokers until proven otherwise and I'm not fully sold on the Sixers yet, but I wouldn't see them beating the Lakers or Clippers with this defense. Hell, even if the Jazz or Nuggets pulled an upset or 2 and surprisingly made the Finals they'd torch that Nets defense just as bad.
