Every non Lakers series . My predictions : Utah will lose against GSW , Mitchell and Conley just back from injuries , Gobert can't guard Curry on the PNR Bucks will beat the Nets in 7 in the ECSF and make it to the Finals
would love to see the bucks get the postseason monkey off their backs against the nets, and i think it's possible. i think they lose to a healthy philly team, though. i have the lakers and blazers upsetting phx and denver in the west (i think utah can outlast gs). and even though utah gives lac problems, i see the all-la conference finals that everyone's been waiting for. i'd predict we lose (and this place goes berserk), then the clips lose to philly in the finals.
Suns have zero interior defense. Lakers SHOULD take advantage of that. Would be better if AD was actually an alpha.
#LMAO at Golden State. My hate for them goes back to the 80s, when they truly sucked... but gave the Lakers fits, every time they faced them. Bye, Curry. Going fishing.
Stupid Silver. Cost the NBA one of the top 5 players in the league - Steph out. Memphis is bout to get swept. Play in is dumb.
If I were Steve Kerr , I would have put a scorer as a screener on the last play in regulation as we all knew Grizz were going to trap Curry but I'm not Steve Kerr so I don't know everything like he does .
Trapping a guy with the passing abilities AND the size of Doncic seems to be a huge mistake . @abeer3 : Do opponents have success guarding Luka this way ? We sure didn't
Warriors 55 Lakers 42 halftime Warriors 100 Lakers 103 final Stephan A said “the Lakers were lucky” No Stephan A. The Lakers are GOOD‼️ They shut GS down (45 2nd half pts) and out scored them by 18 (61 pts) That ain’t luck‼️‼️‼️
he's up there. people have gotten bored by his greatness already, i think. plus, dallas never captures the national attention. dirk was brilliant there for years while people were like "...i guess..." no. i think because it's worked against harden people think it will work against doncic. but he'll make the exact right pass that leads to points (even if indirectly). in houston, harden was so concerned about his stats that he generally tried to only pass if he was getting an assist. also, he's not as smart a player as folks think. luka is a savant. i wonder if the clips will try to make him a 50pt scorer in one of these games. i'd advise against that, too, tbh. that said, the mavs shot very well from three in that first game--and that's been a problem area for them. if i were the clips, i'd play them similarly and expect more misses as the series goes on.
