    Honestly it looks like this one will be a sweep. Even if Ja is available I thought that the Lakers looked like the better team today. Sorry Lakers haters but this team is dangerous, especially if they keep learning more and more how to play together more effectively.

    Lakers will lose when AD breaks.

    He didn't break in 2020. I'm not a Lakers fan I just don't hate them the way a lot of people in this forum do and I think there is a high chance that they will get by Memphis and I don't see any team in the west that is obviously better than the Lakers if they put it all together and stay healthy. It's not the biggest if in the world either because they just did that three years ago. The trades the Lakers pulled off this season were bullshit because they got back a helluva lot more than they gave.

    We could’ve had him for pennies on the dollar.

    Morant injured
    Giannis injured

    Which star gets injured for the Suns/Clippers game?

    I mean, yeah, that’s the exception not the rule.
    History says he’s probably gonna hurt his body at some point.
    But if he doesn’t … you’re right.

    Well, Paul George got his annual playoff injury out of the way already, so I'm going to go with Chris Paul getting his annual playoff injury right on schedule.

    Paul George is already out. The Clippers take care of those injuries before games.
