    Isn’t a LAC/BOS Finals the real nightmare scenario? For as much as I dislike HOU, I would take a HOU championship over LAC or BOS 100 out of 100 times.

    Wow did we get the good twin and Clips got the evil one? I've never seen Markieff do anything like Marcus has been pulling recently.

    Part of me wants to put 10k on the C Bags to win the title. There's no other way for the 2020 season to end for us Laker fans, right?

    I think Kieff has somewhat of a reputation too, but he joined a classy organization, unlike his brother.

    They both have reps for being tough and physical, but I don’t remember hearing Kieff doing anything dirty like this

    Soooooo, why did you step on his ankle like that then Mr. Integrity? I'm just kidding, it looked like an accident.

    In case someone wonders - which team played better against the Clippers this season - Nuggets or Jazz... the answer is Utah Jazz. Which is not a predictor for the playoffs, but just something to have in mind before the DEN-UTA game.

    On paper, I thought Denver should have a better matchup against the Clippers, but... maybe not. What do you guys think?

    Interesting, yeah honestly I had just assumed the Nuggets would be a bigger threat to the Clippers. But if the Jazz actually matched up better against the Clippers in the regular season, AND they’re able to take care of business against the Nuggets anyway, it would be nice to have a competitive Clippers vs. Jazz series. Would be great to see Clarkson go off against them.

    You’re not wrong, but to me it doesn’t matter. I’ll cheer for the end of basketball as I like it over having to chose between a Clippers or C Bags championship.

    It’s one of those cases where my irrational fan emotions supersedes my actual love for the game.

    Looks like very few fans on Twitter are giving Marcus the benefit of the doubt since he has a history of dirty play.

    Understood but it won't be any of the above. Lakers vs. Bucks or Toronto. No need for those also rans.

    F*** this guy because that’s how he and Harrell and Beverly and the whole team are going to try to play AD and Bron and all of us. Cheap shot intimidation.

    Just saw a clip of Morris in today’s close out game over Dallas hammer Luka going up on layup not once but twice in the head area with his forearms. Cheap shots and knocked him off balance and down. Luka jumped up like Rambis getting chotheslined by McHale wanting a piece of him but got similarly stopped from getting to him.

    I don’t doubt our guys can take care of themselves but hate the thought of anyone picking up any suspensions.

    Unless maybe JR .... :giggle: :clap:

    If we face the Clips and they try anything like that, we should let them know that we are going to unleash Rondo, JR, Dion and Dudley on them in an all-out brawl. We don't care if they are suspended, but the Clippers will miss their "tough" guys.

    Bull****. As mentioned above he got ejected again today for cheap flagrant blows to Luka’s head. I think he clubbed someone else as well but not sure?

    Denver forces game 7. I mean, it's not over yet but... it's over.
