What’s exciting is that I can see any of the 5 remaining teams winning it all. We shouldn’t take that for granted after 9 years of Golden State and LeBron “super” teams, and a pathetic Eastern Conference.

What they give up in quality they make up in share numbers. I thought the Clippers would be able to take them down, but with the way they are struggling against Denver, looks like it will be up to the Cetics!!!

That's a dangerous way to live in the playoffs, especially in this three ball era. We did the same thing and got away with it. And we needed an offensive rebound by an unheralded rookie, thus fouling out their best player, to do it.Denver is much more dangerous than Toronto because they have guys that can shoot better. Murray gets hot and it’s goodnight.Wonder if the Nuggets will be able to stop the Lakers. If Jokic can play like he did tonight, could be tough nights for AD3That's what I was thinking as well. I would rather see the Nuggets go up against the Lakers. I think they can give them more of a challenge. Jokic vs AD would be great.I'd expect the Lakers to roll right over the Nuggets. Sure, just like most people expected the Clippers to roll over the Nuggets and the Bucks to roll over the Heat. Jokic, Murray, Milsap, Porter Jr. and Harris would give the Lakers some trouble.

It's Lebron, AD and a bunch of scrubs and washed up old dudes who should be out of the league.

Clearly they want to do this championship for Kobe.We need to put an end to the Lakers this season. Do not let it happen.

I wonder how KG and PP will feel roooting against Rondo.

Rondo is rejunevated, Morris is playing like a star.. the only team that stands a chance in stoping them in the West is the Clippers, and that is because of their star players and coach. The referees will hand a Denver series to the Lakers on a platter. No one wants to watch the Nuggets in the finals. Anyone that thinks Denver stands a snowballs chance against the Lakers should study NBA history. And yes that Laker team is a super team with three super coaches to boot.

Say 70/30 versus 90/10.

Or their dismantling of the playoff powerhouse trio of Harden/Westbrook/D’Antoni?Celtics AND Heat have been more impressive in the bubble, IMO.

They at best would be at even odds against the Celtics and slight favorites over the Heat. This is a flawed Lakers squad, its not the Curry-Durant-Klay Thompson-Draymond Green Warriors or the Lebron-Wade-Bosh Heat we're talking about. Unless you really believe Kuzma and Caruso are future all-stars or something. The Heat thus far have been the most impressive team in the bubble, followed by the Celtics. Hands down.
