Yep. In a down Western conference. Are your Lakers beating Boston in a 2nd round series last year? I’m saying they don’t. Meanwhile, the Sixers matched up great with the Grizzlies and the Warriors last year. It is what it is.

LOL. They lost to the team that won it all. If Denver is a result of a down conference, what does that say about the East?

I referenced who they beat not who they lost to in an uncompetitive sweep.

Yeah, I didn't see this game as a big deal at all.

People acting like y'all on a 13 game losing streak or the loss puts you out of the playoffs.

It was one game against a top team in the East.

Could actually light a fire under guys.

Flush it and move on.

Exactly. If I'm Ham, I hold up a tape of the game and say "If any of y'all want to watch this, it'll be in here" and drop it in the trash. lol

The Lakers started 2-10 last year and made the WCF...that's about all anyone needs to know about early season NBA games.

Losses by 2, 5, 6, and 11 pts = noncompetitive? Good to know what level of logic you're working with, lol.
Yes. A sweep is uncompetitive by its very nature. You can sugar coat that however you like but a sweep is a sweep

Seems like a good time to say Lakers coming to the OKC tomorrow night.

Refs ruined an otherwise really good game between the Warriors and Kings. 72 combined freethrows, with the Kings shooting 20+ in the 3rd quarter alone to help them come back from the deficit. I know the Warriors tend to foul, but that is an absurd number of freethrows.

Bright spots is that Wiggins has finally produced another really good game and Klay had his moments as well. Went from such a good start to bottom of the barrel production really fast. 18 games into the season and Kerr has still not figured out the rotations. It's insane to me that he can't utilize players properly.

The next 20 games are really going to indicate where this team is going to go this year. Right now we're looking at play-in. That's unacceptable to me based upon this team's make-up.
