Or three! I can see a world where the Grizzlies out hustle everyone and make it to the Finals. That actually feels more likely to me than the Lakers beating them four games out of seven. Happy to be wrong though. 1 Quote 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tBBP Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I'll be happy for you to be wrong, too. I somewhat summarized Memphis' issues in my prior post, but I'll add this: one the last few weeks, their tendency was to get out to huge leads and then sleepwalk through fourth quarters...plus they are SORELY missing Steven Adams/Brandon Clarke right now. (Oh and they're just a teeeeny, tiiiiiny bit immature.) So until they do mature (Adams notwithstanding—but he's likely out for the postseason), and unless Baby Z-Bo out there beasts out in the first round, as much as I want to see it, and considering how hot the Lakers have gotten since LeBron return...I just don't see Memphis getting past them. (I can still hold out hope, though.)

DG_ThenNowForever Posted April 11, 2023 Author Share Posted April 11, 2023 The thing about the Lakers is that while they have a great record after the trade deadline, they also played the easiest schedule -- Grizzlies without Ja, Suns without anyone, Warriors without Klay, and the Jazz multiple times. In fact, their biggest post-trade game was against the Clippers last week, and they were down 20 most of the game and only had a late run to lose by a respectable 8. Granted, that was off a game in Utah the night before while the Clippers had three days rest, but still -- they lost. These Lakers can be good to great, but it's really been impossible to tell with any kind of consistency.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted April 12, 2023 Author Share Posted April 12, 2023 KAT was Wilt Chamberlain for 40 minutes and then just lost it at the worst possible time. I gave up on the Lakers like three times, including that stupid foul on Conley. Crazy, crazy game.

GDAWG Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 So if they and the Warriors win their round one series, do they meet each other in round two or in the Western Conference Finals? I heard someone say today that they could meet in round two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard someone say today that they could meet in round two. The only way the Lakers and Warriors could have met in the WCF was if the Lakers had lost tonight and won Friday and then won through. Clippers/Lakers WCF is still a possibility, though I think LAC would have the tougher road to get there.

Germanshepherd Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Unfortunately I don’t think we’re ever getting a consistently healthy Zion, but if we do that team could be championship type good. 1 Quote i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cujo Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 So I see the wild card games were meaningless. 7s and 8s all took their rightful place in the 2nd round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
