TOR-BKN is going to be brutal though.
Denver crushed them in the OT. Utah was close to winning this in the 4th though.
Indeed. Although, when it comes to playing D in the playoffs, I'd still trust Rondo more than Cook. It's close... but I think Rondo is better.
Pick your poison: 4 on 5 offense or defense? :)
Don't steal Lou's thunder!
I agree with that. He's actually needed, since no AB in the bubble. If others are not hitting shots, it's Rondo time. The only guard I trust...
I agree. If it wasn't for that constant flopping to draw calls, he'd be really great. He does innovate offensively, is tricky to defend af, very...
Before we start posting photos, I'd just like to say this is a thread for making predictions as well. For our matchup with the Blazers, I'll say...
Awesome, I loved this thread! It used to be a tradition for us, but then... well... we stopped making the playoffs.
Can we just ask Rondo to fight Lillard? You know he would do it. Get both of them suspended for a game or 2... it's a win-win situation. We have...
Remember the Rockets pushing us to 7 in 2009, taking the 1-0 lead? :Noddingyes:
Of course Harden is skilled, no question about it.
I definitely hear you there. We could have tanked to #2, but obviously we did not want to do it or did not anticipate this scenario at all... or...
Whoever says they are worried and feel fear, go ahead and fear them. I don't fear them at all and I feel very confident we're going to advance....
I have. I have also seen their defense. In order to actually beat us and advance, Dame will have to average 45-50 for the series and have some...
Nothing is wrong with that, just like nothing is wrong with me expressing my opinion about it. So what if it's going 6? Better to have a wake-up...
You guys have been completely demoralized by our struggles in recent years. It's like you forgot what being a Laker fan truly means. Now that we...
It doesn't just look horrendous in the bubble. The Blazers are 3rd worst defensive team in the league, period. They are atrocious on that end, and...
Bron definitely isn't hurt. I feel very confident in his ability to demoralize his opponents in the playoffs.
It's not going to be a sweep, no. But, we should win this without too much trouble. Portland is a good team, but not that good. They have...
