What team has the most pressure to beat the Los Angeles Lakers in the playoffs?

[DJ]

Self explanatory.

Vote and discuss.

Clippers, easily. They had the worst losing period in Lakers history to try to at least loosen the Lakers grip on LA and they got 2nd round playoff exits.

Then, they went out and got Kawhi and PG making themselves the favorites to win the title and they got a 2nd round playoff exit.

Ballmer's wanting a banner to hang in the new arena when it opens in the worst way. He's not going to be happy if they fail again.

I agree but a lot of people think it's the Nets with their new Big 3.

Yeah Clippers

if the Clippers lose to them, they will remain the Ginger stepchild, and the Kawhi George thing “isn’t working”

if Brooklyn loses in the finals, they will probably enter next season as a favorite with Bron a year older, and almost viewed as a positive season

If the Clippers lose early again I can see Leonard giving up his player option and walking to another team.

Leaving the Clippers with PG, Ibaka, Beverly, Morris, Kennard, Zubac and co.....and struggling to even make the playoffs.

True. But they will get a pass because it's their first season together and everyone knows they're terrible defensively.

Clippers, no other team is even close. Nets are in the east, they have to worry about winning that conference, same with Boston.

Damn it, keep forgetting the tater salad.

Gotta go with the Clippers. Can't stand the S. O. B. 's, and enjoy watching em crash and burn, though...

Gotta keep Kawhi from walking

True, but might get a pass as their 1st year together...unless they go out early in playoffs.
