I don’t know.

No team in their right mind would trade Kessler for Gobert.

Gobert is a bad contract.

And he was when Minny traded for him.
All he has to do is hit some 3s and he’d be a game changer.

Why does this sound oh so familiar?

Honestly while the Kings will be a less tough opponent than the Suns, they are not even close to a gimme. Might even be favored. We still don't know how the Ws will look on the road in games that matter vs teams that are hungry. That's what makes it fun.

It'd be fun to see the Lakers beat Memphis and the Warriors beat Sacto. 2nd round playoff matchup, Warriors with home court. Probably a great 7 game series.
Both those 1st round matchups will go at least 6…. imo.

So, agree….no gimmes.

But, I’m taking the Dubs over Sacto and the Lakers over Memphis/Denver.

Not going to hedge…

But, the Lakers winning depends on Davis.

I want to see if anyone has the balls to pick the Kings in this series.

I.

Do.

Not.
The Warriors should win but damn.....the Kings are so young too know any better.....they could fuck around and surprise everybody and win......

I said all that to say the Warriors in 5.

Watch, the Kings will win now.

They won’t get crushed and definitely could win.

But, I like the Dubs experience.

Spinchters could tighten up if it comes down to a game 7.

Gotta hope the playoffs make his motor go into overdrive. It's too bad that's what it takes for some players but they say it about Jimmy Butler too...

Frankly the Warriors have needed some urgency all year, hope we finally see it.

Was Mike Brown an assistant on Kerr's staff in GS?

Think I remember that. Interesting first round matchup.

Yes just last year and he was their "defensive coordinator". Probably one of the reasons their defense sucked on the road this year.

Happy for him, COY easy

Why does @Pastafazul post like a clown all year then disappear as the playoffs get going?

No question.

Turning around the Kings is like turning around the Browns or Lions in the NFL.

The Clippers v Suns match up kinda favors the Lakers.

Those are the two teams I feel would easily beat the Lakers in a series, and one of them will be out In the first round.

Sixers finish with the 3rd best record in the NBA and the most wins they’ve had during the Embiid era after a 12-12 start. Great season. Here’s the problem…they’re better than all but 2 teams in the NBA and they’re facing one of them in round 2.
