Well it looks like y'all got what you wanted. My soul would much rather have seen a Steph/Bron face off - I don't know that we will see them later down the line - but at least this should make for an easy first round.

Now for the important question of what for dinner on playoff night

The Clippers with Harden and healthy Kawahi are the most dangerous team going into the Playoffs.

I think you might get your wish in round 2.

Lakers vs Minny in the 1st round

Steph's thumb is in a sling because his tendon is strained and he's wearing a butt pad because of a bruised tailbone. I don't know who they're playing in the playin but if any other team besides the Lakers needed this week off it was the Warriors so I don't know about all that. The Warriors are now in the we'll see zone.

Didn't really matter who won, we should beat everyone not named OKC TBH, and I expect JJ has some plans for the Thunder also

Butler got kneed in the quad by Kawhi. And considering that last flop in overtime he pulled, he deserved it. It's the "egregious flopping" tax.

Memphis. Winner of that GSW/Mem playin then faces Houston

Game plan. Get under Antman's skin. He'll blow a gasket and get tossed. Wolves are 48-31 with Edwards 1-2 without him. This is a Luka show-me game. His last 2 give rise to the trade trauma, is/has subsided, and he's resigned to being a Laker. If he plays like we think he's capable of playing, I wouldn't count out bringing the Larry O'Brien to Crypto.

Refs aren't going to toss anyone especially a superstar in a playoff game. Luka was a very rare exception. That ref just effed up. I don't think they would let it happen again.

Draymond Green has a reputation. I think it caused him to be suspended in the playoffs twice. Once for the accumulation of flagrant fouls and once for stomping on Domantas Sabonis. Anthony Edwards has a reputation. Like Green, he will be given leeway. He has 16 techs; 1 more will result in an ejection or suspension. I'm not sure which. His last tech was rescinded. I don't think that will happen again. I think if he got another tech, he would be ejected. I don't know if that would mean a suspension. If you know how another tech would affect him, let me know. I think a strategy to go after him is sound.
