In this year’s NBA Finals, the defending champion Golden State Warriors now set their sights on a familiar opponent: the Cleveland Cavaliers. With Steph Curry and Lebron James leading their respective teams after a competitive playoff series, it’s now time to see who will take the trophy home. The Finals tip off Thursday night, but NBA 2K16 gives players an early look at how the series could end up.

Digital Trends’ Josh Smith picks up the controller and runs the numbers to simulate the season’s biggest series in the game. Which team does it predict? You’ll have to watch.

I’ve been using the wrong gaming VR headset for years
A Meta render gives you an idea of what you'll experience in VR with a Quest 3S.

As a long-time VR gamer, I've always found myself in an awkward position. I'm certainly not a casual player at this point, but I'm also not quite a full-blown techie. I don't spend my time studying the ins and outs of lens shapes or obsessing over resolution. I'm just happy to use whatever headset lets me play games comfortably and conveniently.
