the Lakers!!!
Loving these playoffs so far. Games are physical and going down to the wire. There shouldn't be any worries about ratings.
Wow, this first round has been the best in recent memory. Really great games for the most part.

Pretty good comeback by Minny. I thought they would lose this one.
No we don’t. That went to Sacto in the Fox trade.
We have the unprotected swap, same thing.
Podcaster is already complaining about the refs, we all know what's coming in G5.
Re crying about the play that very easily could've been a travel for Luka sliding three ing feet on the floor. Bron is gonna fire you anyway, dude--you don't have to go out like this.
What i got about the playoffs this weekend was this;
the thompson twins are probably two of the lowest IQ players on the planet….
I pray the spurs are never ever ever ing tempted to ever sign one of these dumb s.
Agreed but I would say Amen has the physical tools to be a star, but it comes down to him fixing his jump shot which will be a tall task.
Same sportsutainment media insisting Shadeur Sanders was a top pick in the NFL draft insisted the Lakers were going to win this series.
https://sports.yahoo.com/article/nba...034927002.htmlThe crew chief from the referees who officiated Game 4 has now spoken out about the controversy. In the official pool report, head ref Zach Zarba explained why they deemed Gordon's basket to be good.
“We make a ruling on the floor," Zarba said, via Clippers beat reporter Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints. "The ruling on the floor from the game officials was a good basket. It then automatically goes to the Replay Center official. The Replay Center official, after taking a good look at it, found clear and conclusive evidence that the ball was out of Gordon’s hands when the red light came on to end the game. That’s why it was ruled a good basket.
“It has to be out of his hand when that red light is on," Zarba said. "That’s what we’re looking for. It’s not the cylinder of the rim -- it’s whether it’s in contact with his hand or not when that red light comes on.”

Not even a token hot take prediction for the Wolves.
Half of us regulars in here would do a better job than these clowns.
How can you ing follow the game for a living, for decades, and still be this clueless?
Did the rule change? Is it different from college or something? I've always heard that once the ball is halfway through the cylinder, it's a basket. It doesn't matter if the hand is on it or not. The ball is out of play at that point because it's a score. Not sure if something changed.
Lakers in 5 has a whole new meaning now
That is stunning. I know it's easy to say now, but I expected Minnesota to win this series. The Lakers are massively flawed. Their roster construction is so bad they had one lineup to play the entire 2H today.
Re , Luka, Bron all talking about the refs postgame. Bunch of ing babies.
To be fair, the refs didn't come through for them this time.
Lebron had 18 FTA, the most in his playoff career as a Laker, 8th most ever, and most in 8 years butmuh refs

It’s not unprotected, it’s #1 overall protected. Also, a pick isn’t near the same thing as a swap.
Orlando extremely low IQ tonight. Lumps of a young team, I suppose.
Dame likely just tore his achilles. Giannis and Dame 1 playoff game together--brutal.
Would it be insensitive for Brian Wright to pick up the phone to call the Bucks for the sake of laying a foundation for Giannis trade right the now?
I'm old enough to remember the "Lakers in 8!" taunts in 1999.
Very sad about Dame. Perhaps there’s no correlation but him ramping up so quickly to come back from the DVT sure seemed like malpractice.
Bucks are screwed cap-wise and don’t control their picks until 2031. Brutal.
