Nico! Can we have Derek Lively in the offseason?! I heard he's getting a little out of shape.

I think the TWolves are the biggest threat in the west to take a game from the Lakers in a series but I’m predicting 4-0.

losing Towns hurts Twolves badly in the half court game. Towns can stretch out our bigs beyond three point line, and he's not a ball stopper like Julius Randle.

Geez....we arent the 2001 Lakers here.....who smacked the (bleep) out of 4 50+ win teams by record margins and went 15-1. What did Chick say about that team, "The highest form of basketball that he had ever seen from a team?"

So much infighting from that team with Kobe and Shaq, not giving a (bleep) about defense during the regular season and general championship malaise.....and they still won 56 games while on snooze. Then they woke up and became the one team that could beat Jordan's Bulls and Steph/Durant Warriors.

But yea Wolves....could easily be 4-0.

Three reasons I think the Lakers will win this series.

1. Home court advantage
2. More depth and versatility
3. Will have the best player on the court

If Edwards gets another tech will he be suspended, or does it reset for the playoffs?

LOL! Read my signature... if anything, that dude is Nico, not me. He doesn't think much of Luka, so I don't understand where he gets his confidence from. Luka can drop 35, 10 and 10, and he'll say great coaching by JJ! Without Luka, DFS can replace those numbers. LOL!

Not sure how healthy the Lakers are, but hopefully we are fully staffed enough to take this team on. They made it to WCF last year so we can't sleep on them at all. Although the Lakers have Luka now and not the Mavs, the health of the team is important, I think they've have enough chemistry to be competitive in these playoffs, but AE is a BEAST!!!
Our bench has to show up for these games, every single one!

We're only favored by 4 points? I thought this would be an easy sweep for the Lakers. Shouldn't be a close game, right?

I think an important side plot to this series will be if Gabe Vincent's output will be able to match Dante's output for minnesota. If Gabe can cancel out Dante i think that will bode well for Lakers winning this series in 5 or 6. Dante is minnesota's X-factor imo

We were shooting lights out so I wanted to keep playing. Hopefully, the week-long rest doesn't cool us down. Stupid play-in garbage.
