Why is everyone just assuming Denver is gonna beat Minnesota. Minnesota can definitely win the series and I think they match up well with Spurs well
Okc is gonna grab another gear, rested and healthy. Gonna make a statement this playoff run.
I’m more thrilled DG is in the sport space. NBA TODAY & LAKERS COMMENTATOR
Telling Danny he's a "other" to his face is crazy
Most these media personalities just express how they been feeling all year who cares said lakers weren’t gonna be in playoffs now they move the goal post to not getting out the first round
This is the LEAST interesting series in the first round because whoever wins is just gonna get swept by OKC 😂😂😂 Talk about Denver vs Minnesota
Wemby would look good in a Cavs uniform 🎉
Y’all looking past Steph is a bad move..he could of sat out and waited til next year if he wasn’t on a mission
1. Didn’t Minnesota beat the nuggets in a series a year ago or two in game 5 or 6? Something like that .
2. Why they acting like Kevin and the rockets are just unbeatable all of a sudden ?? Rockets going to win the series but I bet it’s going to go to a game 7 .
No excuses laker fans.
Nothing gets her more excited than the post season? How about a few fingers down there lol. That will get her excited for sure lol.
The Wolves disrespect is wild
You have to double team Kevin Durant . You won’t stop him but you can slow him down.
This mf taking lakers so lightly lols.. its not just Luka or Reaves. Thats the lakers with Bron, Ayton and Smart with JJ Coaching them.
Also that Wolves disrespect lols. I know Jokic was good Denver was lit in their last 10 games. However, thats the wolves who beat them 3 years in a row lols.
Don’t count out the LAKERS
Don’t ever disrespect Danny Green like that
lakers are getting sent home 😂😂😂
was planning to watch hoping for genuine basketball discussions but when I saw Melaka Andrews…👎🙅♂🙅♂
Lakers have a harder schedule than OKC. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know this.
NOPE!! I’m tired of the Thunder too.
0:43 Tangnangmukhayan…
If wemby was only 7 footer…i wonder if he would be "dominant"🤔🤔
What happened at the end? Was it because Malika and Dave are dating?
GOAT James, first of his name, is going to prove why he's dat dude still
Surprise is COMING 😂
Now kds hurt salt bags
The lakers disrespect is wild yo lmao
how come its a Gift?
KD hasn’t eliminated Lebron before without Steph Klay and Draymond
KD hasnt been out the 2nd round since he left GSW
Incoming Lakers 4 – 1 Rockets.
Women put in as DEI, talking complete nonsense… smh
Saying everyone wants to see OKC & the Spurs is crazy.I hope they both loose before the WCF
Danny Green always hating on OKC. That’s what the 1st seed is for to have an easier path thru the playoffs by beating lower seeds. What do you expect 1st seed teams to play 2nd seed in the first round?
Typical Klutch narratives.
Why people act like sga mvp is such a lock, jokic triple double and lead in assists and rebs sheesh smh
How the lakers are underdog while they have the “ goat “ 😂
WEMBY CAN PACK SMALLER PLAYERS!
Is this the intern show?
Well it's ggs for the rockets bron is known in the playoffs to win with no help y'all acting like this the first time😂😂
12:57
…how sweet…. Chiney teasing Malika about hubby things…
if luka and reeves didn't play in first round rockets sweep them 4-0.
The hornets packing their golf bags, and their fishing gears right now….
Better Dey say lakers losing because these analysts always get it wrong idk y
Let's go lakers…shock the world 🔥🔥🔥
Malika has the most wreckless mouf on TV
Yep.. J-Dub had ice in his veins in that finals series without him they may not have won
