Aldridge might get X'd out of the rotation if we meet in the finals. Drummond exposed him. That means AD will destroy him as well. MDA loves going small, I could see them doing that against us.
Big 3, Joe Harris and Jeff Green.
At that point, all the cards will be in our hands. And I like our chances.
Maybe BRK dusts of Deandre Jordan for that series though. Which could be interesting. Wonder what he'd look like against Drummond. He should be fresh since he's resting while being out of the rotation.
Esposed him to retirement. Honestly he will not only face Dre if they meet in the finals. He will also face Giannis and Embiid in the playoffs.
Better be retire than face that punishment, specially he has a heart problem.
I wonder what it's like to trapped in a mind where kindness and compassion don't exist.

Bummed out on the Lamarcus news š„ŗ
Not too long ago we Lakers fans were celebrating Andre getting the best of him followed up by this heartbreaking diagnosis.
Tough break but LA has every reason to hold his head high stillšššššš
15 years in the league and Iāll always remember how he destroyed Dwight his first year as a Rocket šš¤£š

We're going to find out in the playoffs when he does not have the luxury of sitting out whenever he feels like it.
I honestly think KDās time as an elite player is coming to a close, if it hasnāt already. He has had two major injuries already (foot fracture and Achilles tear) and will be 33 next season. He canāt seem to stay healthy enough to be the main guy on a contender anymore.
In the early part of his career, I thought he had a chance to score the most points in NBA history. Currently only at #27. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

Agree, and i think Harden will start breaking down too with the amount of usage he normally sees and his style of play. Kyrie can probably maintain his level for a while because he is so skilled.

Looks like they aren't planning on improving their defense, they just sign another role player who is only known for his offense. lmfao
With Nash and Dantoni headlining their coaching staff, and the personnel they have been going after, it's clear their plan is to shoot their way to a chip.
Quite a few of the top teams have injured star players. Who is the healthiest team right now?
Probably phoenix. Their starters missed a combined 8 games.

The problem with this approach is they kept on getting players who needs shots to contribute and there is only 1 ball. It's not as if these guys will increase their shot attempts or something. Instead they will take away attempts from likes of Joe Harris, who for me is more scarier if gets hot.
I will be more glad that Harris will decrease his shot attempts to give others their touches

Yea...when we got Nash, we forgot to ask the Suns to toss in their medical staff as well. _________________ "One thing I admire about Kuzma is his unwavering confidence. He truly has no idea that heās not as good as he thinks." - Killer_Z

Not the most important news happening right now but the Nets are hating it. In addition to whatever is going on with KD now James Harden is out indefinitely.

I really hope the Nets become fully healthy, only because I want the Lakers to take them down in the Finals. It could be one of the most exciting and highest-rated championship series of our lifetime.
How about we beat the Nets at full strength not just this year but also next year? _________________ Lakers 49ers Chargers Dodgers
Griffin looks really bad with all the assets he had when he took the job. Just a badly constructed team and terrible decisions on extensions/non-extensions.
