Lakers/Warriors bout to be the most watched NBA game in years...

[FreshFromATL]

Congrats Adam Silver you’ve already struck gold in year one of the play-in plus Beal/Russ is sure to cause fukkery back East. This year’s playoffs might be the best in years.

Lakers/Warriors already got the computers putin’

 

[god shamgod]

Man no it won’t

 

[LexDiamonds]

Nah. 10pm eastern time on a Wednesday.

 

[10bandz]

maybe if it was the 9-10 game

 

[L&HH]

Man no it won’t

Ya'll bugging. The west is going to be a straight gauntlet. And the East is no slouch too only because I can see Harden, KD, and Kyrie possibly not being the healthiest all playoffs. And if the Wizards match up against them round one it can get interesting.

I honestly think the Lakers gonna be too rusty and injured to go all the way this year. But if they did it they might pull off something historic. Imagine if they have to beat:

Play-in: Curry
1st round: CP3
WCSF: Jokic
WCF: Kawhi
Finals: KD/Harden

That would damn near be the entire 1st-team All-NBA squad from this year, plus 5 of the last 8 MVPs and 4 of the last 5 Finals MVPs that weren't Bron.

STOP IT.
CLIPS ARE THE
ONLY TEAM OUT WEST
THAT CAN SEE THE LAKERS.

NO ONE ON THE COLI
BELIEVES THE SUNS ARE CONTENDERS.

DENVER CANT BEAT THEM
WITH MURRAY LET ALONE
WITHOUT MURRAY

You literally have no idea how Bron or AD are really playing right now. They've barely been on the court the last two months and either could be at 70% or worse by the time the 1st round starts. Add in that Schroder has been out a bunch, Drummond/McLemore have barely played with Bron/AD at all, and Gasol keeps racking up DNPs, and this could be one of the most out-of-sorts teams we've seen in a long time.


Trez is the only Laker to play more than 67 games this year and Kuzma leads the team in minutes.

 

[ryderldb]

Won’t be the most watched game, but it’ll definitely get viewers. This is a dream situation for the play in.

You're making sense for once

Interesting as in what?

 

[L&HH]

Interesting as in what?

Again it comes down to Harden's health. A healthy Harden and Nets bring the brooms out. But if he not all healthy or misses some games Wiz could maybe take them to 6. interesting as in the series will be interesting but Wizards won't win of course.

 

[InstantKlassik]

You dudes need to chill the fukk out. This didn’t deserve a thread at all.

 

[UserNameless]

Nah. 10pm eastern time on a Wednesday.

Start time is ridiculous

#KlutchMafia would definitely spin it that way
