Gunning for the lakers is 100% chickenshit basketball. If we can’t beat the Nuggets we don’t deserve the lakers anyway.
They’ll have to out tank the Jazz, who currently has the same record as the Kings. Kings are almost guaranteed to lose to the Blazers. The Blazers are tied with the Clippers and need the win to keep the 8th spot because Clippers are likely winning against Warriors. The Warriors are locked in at 10th and will rest everyone. Making the last game an important tanking game for the Jazz.
Denver will beat the Spurs anyhow. San Antonio will rest their players too most likely. Just like last night Okc vs Den
We were competitive k every game Against Denver except the last game. Rmemeber that phantom foul called on amen to send the second game to overtime with 1 second on the clock .
It's weird that the Nuggets would be apathetic enough to not try to win Sunday but the Lakers seem like they aren't doing the same with a 41 year old star who could use the rest. If we're the easier matchup the Lakers should be more focused about trying to manipulate seeding in the first round to buy time for Luka and Reaves to come back. I kind of like this from a motivational stand point honestly. That should fire these guys up to play Denver.
If you are the Spurs trying to maximize odds it's better to win Sunday and send Denver to the other side of the bracket.
Denver wasn't full strength. they will have all their players in the playoffs. rockets kinda screwed.
They all try to play against the Rockets in the 1st round. They know Rockets are the weakest team. They know Rockets have a shiit coach. They know the fool Stone gave up the season before trade deadline that didn't get any PG for the team. They believe they can sweep the Rockets. It's so ****ing disrespectful.
I believe they would still duck Rockets if we had Harden now. They know Ime is an idiot coach. We aren't able to play structured offense and defense. Any people know Rockets need a PG, but Stone did not do any move. Are you scared to play against headless chickens?
LeBron is on the injury report - zero chance he plays. NBA is such an embarrassing league man. There’s a real chance both of those teams (Lakers and Jazz) are going to try to lose that game tomorrow night.
good! better we go through Denver, SA and OKC on the way to the finals... that way there aint no b****in and naysayers....
