14 point lead cut to 1 lol. Yeah not feeling confident about the 8 seed giving the Lakers any problems now.

I assume MEM will cool off at some point.

But man, those two blocks on Melton (1st qtr and 2nd qtr) were no-joke. He can't be feeling great right now.

Perhaps Portland's bigs can neutralize Anthony Davis?

They'll need an answer for LeBron though.

Lebron is finally mortal I believe and he aint the Lebron of 2015 anymore...this means they are beatable.

That's true, but I'd argue the Lakers also will need answers for CJ + Dame. This is where they'll really miss someone like Avery Bradley. Blazers could give the Lakers some fits. But I don't see the Grizzlies being able to do that, though much respect to Ja Morant and that team for the season they've had.

Man look at Jusuf Nurkic. 15 points and 17 rebounds in just the first half.

I wish the Celtics had someone like him....

CJ not much of a factor. Playing hurt.

That's also true. The Blazers are definitely going to need Carmelo to give them at least 15 PPG in the playoffs, but preferably closer to 18-20.

Been a great game so far. Morant starting to heat up.

I think Portland thought their game against Brooklyn was the mail-in game to get into the playoffs.

They are getting eaten alive by Brandon Clarke and Ja Morant.

Clarke is having a great game....we could have had him twice in the draft
