with out AD the lakers cannot beat jokic squad ,he humbly walk out from the game but his squad dismantled the Pelicans
This number seed is just a bragging rights. Mavs vs Nugs. Nugs purposely lost games to avoid Mavs in the 2nd round.
SGA IS MVP
Top 8 might be lucky in a play offs
Sam Presti is on of the best GMs in the NBA. He should have had multiple championships when he had Durant, Westbrook and Harden. Hopefully he will get a chip with this team.
Bill is smoking dick lol MJ 1 Kobe 2 and no one cares about Lame James
Sam Presti out-Sammed Sam Hinkie and actually succeeded at pulling off "The Process". He's done so in a way that has a high chance of leading to a team of players who have such chemistry and chances to win titles that assuring they consider staying in OKC is much more likely than it otherwise would be.
The PG trade will go down in history. OKC took the one seed, the Clips are facing the Mavs who are on a tear right now and OKC gets LACs 1st rounders for three more drafts. Yikes.
Suns in 5
Lakers. ready
for play-in.
WHT r the odds?
Play in thing is just plain stupid.
Kings
R
Ready
Wtf how is MVP not SGA?
Nobody!!!!! Fears okc or Phoenix trust me NOBODY!!!!!
Let's stop using the word matchup this is not about matchups I'm not saying that doesn't play to some degree and play some role in the series sure but it's not about matchups you don't win a series with matchups cuz you can win your match up all series long and steal your team loses the series, this the better team the better team, regardless who's in front of you you have to find a way regardless which team is in front of you and who's on the floor, you have to find a way as a team to win that series therefore the better team is the one that wins a series and moves on the better team not the better match up same thing with the with anybody you face in a playoffs whoever's in front of you the better team is going to win the series not The better match up let's get used to same team because basketball is a team sport and it matters as a team you win as a team basketball will always be a team sport so you got to work as a team and work with every position but still at the end of the day, the better team wins the series regardless who you play regardless
Royce O'Neil is is in the playoffs even when he was with the Jazz please pay attention when Utah was still a good team back when they had all the extra players, when I'm talking 3 years the last 3 years when he was with Utah and they still were very good team Roy o'neal, was one of the players as well as Georges niang the two players who would fade away when the playoffs came that means they were nowhere to be found in the playoffs they they faded at the most crucial moments so Royale has a tendency to do that and he will do it again with Phoenix it doesn't matter that he's excited to play their, Fade Away
No give us the resume of James, I would like to know why heβs better then Jordan. Dumbass
Thunder
Dallas sat their starters for the 2 non bearing games. Nuggets losing to SAS, made the gamble by mavs pay off. They wouldn't meet Denver until conference finals, should they cruise on clippers and okc (series)
Skyhooks the π
MJ. Stop this nonsense.
And the thunder has a dozen of top picks in the next 2 to 3 years
Lakers will lose to Pelicans and will try to win battle against GSW/Kings just to avoid Denver.
What did Sam di. His just lucky having SGA period.
Philly should have learned how to tank from okcπ
I want new Orleans to beat la so bad but they play terribly against them.
quick question: Why does 76ers have to play in the play in tournament? They have the same standing as the pacer and magic.
Not Denver round 2 for the lakers π’π’π’π’ I hope we can beat the joker
Is lebron old?
It seemed like no one wanted to be the #1 seed, considering who they might have to play. OKC seemed to take that challenge and risk. My respect for them. I do believe they will prepare themselves mentally and physically, ready to take on what ever team they have to play.
Lakers should purposely lose vs Pels, they don't want the Nuggets first round.
I donβt like the play in format I feel like if you a top 8 team then u made the playoffs now the pelicans made the playoffs but now this bullshut smh
Rigged matchups, staged locations, nba is grade A trash . Glad I stopped watching it after Kobe passing.
Spurs knocked the nuggets out of the #1 seed lol
SGA should be MVP. Not the other dude.
The only way the Lakers don't go out 1st round if they lose against the pelicans in purpose then win against who every wins warriors kings cause nuggets at 7th seed , Lakers are in a horrible position
Long term rebuild? It was 2 seasons…
Dude really thinks lebron is the goat, lebron fans are delusional i think lebron is a all time great just not the greatest
