Analysis The Race for Home-Court Advantage - 25/26 Playoffs Seed Tracker

Guess we're playing Denver in the 2nd Round tbh. No way the lakers can stay at the 3 seed if Luka's out for the remainder of the RS.

Fuck MethKC fans but Reaves should have just let that go.

 

[spursistan]

It may not be as bad, but we are witnessing another CP3/Deron Williams situation with regard to the SGA/Doncic debate. The past two seasons have clearly seen Shai leap past Doncic in the player hierarchy. The silverware, personal accolades and H2H matchups attest to that.

Makes beating Denver in the last two games even more urgent.

Apparently he was cleared to return according to JJ Reddick.

Really? Dude could barely walk off the floor and he's not even going to mis a single game..? That's wild.

Was prolly more of a quit than a legit injury tbh. That said, let's see what the MRI says.

Respect to Reaves for standing up for his teammate. That fan should have been kicked out, tbh.

KD would have probably agreed with the methhead OKC fan

As much as I dislike the Lakers, you're right. Taunting an injured player while he's down ain't right.

Maybe. SGA has the Presti machine behind him plus the easiest whistle we've ever seen, even more than Jordan. Doncic went to the Finals with the Mavs but came up short. I'm not a huge believer in Shai. He's an excellent player but deeply unethical and depends on the referees to a freakish degree.

What a massive POS lescum is. A methlahoma fan is harassing an injured Luka, reaves is standing up for him, and lebum stands there with his hands in his pockets doing nothing to help out his supposed friend

it's hard to ignore meth addicted inbred 400 pound troglodytes tbh

I actually have some respect for this Lakers team apart from that worthless beta bitch wearing #23 still sucking air as well as his somehow even more worthless son. There hasn't been a Lakers team this likeable since the Jerry West era of the 1960s. Hopefully 23 and his son are gone after this year.

AR15, Luka, Jake LaRavia, Luke Kennard. Heck when Dalton Knecht is around, him too. Sounds like a group of good guys I'd legitimately like to go out and party with, have a few beers pick up some ladies with, go to the gun range with, shoot some hoops, reminisce of the good ole days in my college fraternity, rather than the typical druggy, hip-hoppy NBA goons.

yeah. Lebrick might be Gen X or Y technically but he's more emblematic of gen Z or gen alpha. Lazy, nonchalant, robotic, has the emotional intelligence/capacity of an empty box of popcorn.

oh, and will never forget how he was the only guy on either team to just die when the AC went out while the Spurs poured 3s on the rest of "his" team's head... defending champions my ass! I grew up in San Antonio playing basketball outdoors in 100+ degree heat, blazing sun, and sweltering humidity. Ricky Davis-manufactured stats be damned, that bitch is nowhere near Top 25 all time.

It's too bad Reaves isn't a prime Ron Artest tbh

 

[Millennial_Messiah]

Btw, I'm proudly one of the 9 votes out of 67 that voted "no" months back, tbh, even though I wished the opposite were true

 

[spursistan]

If he plays next game he needs to be called out for this trademark ruse. You got belted: own it up.

They really hyped that OKC-Lakers game like that

[Exstatic]

Sadly, both teams cannot lose. I’d rather the Lakers get humiliated here

From your lips to God’s ears…

[couchman]

I’ll be surprised if the Lakers hold on to the #3 seed. Heck, if the Rockets get their shit together the LeBrons could fall to #5.

 

[LeBowen]

Lakers have h2h over the Nuggets, meaning if they go 3-2, the Nuggets need to go 5-0 to get the 3rd seed.
We just need to beat them once to keep them on Thunder's side of bracket. They won't drop to 6th since the Timberwolves and the Rockets play each other.
And that game will probably be decisive who gets the 5th seed, hopefully Timberwolves can beat them and get the 5th seed.
Blazers should stay above the Clippers if they beat them in their h2h game and we can help them with that by tanking our game if needed.

Lakers have an easy remaining schedule. Outside of that other OKC game, they should win even without Luka.

Denver still has us twice and the Thunder tbh.

 

[Mugen]

Unfortunately for Laker Nation, there are levels to this. There's RefKC and us. Then Denver. Then everybody else in the West tbh.

 

[LeBowen]

Tiago is doing great in Portland, tbh.
The thing I'm most interested about that doesn't involve the Spurs is are these Hornets fool's gold.
Them upsetting Pistons isn't out of question if Cade doesn't fully recover.

Nah the Hornets are legit, it's just a matter of if their experience will gimp them vs the pistons

Doncic done for the season tbh.
