They're not gonna hold up. Antman is a generational talent. Plus GSW don't have any bigs to counter Gobert, Reid, and Randle, and esp Gobert if he turns into Wilt Chamberlain again.
I would've preferred the Warriors to advance if the Lakers made it next round, but the Wolves did the job for us. Wolves in 5 here and I sure hope they just go all the way to the Finals bcuz there's no way in hell the Nuggets will survive OKC and SGA's free-throw parade (unless OKC shows their second-round choke again)
I don?t frequent the boards as much these days so asking honestly. Did you own up or apologize for how much you glazed up and hyped up the lakers the last three years. You culiminated saying they had a double bye to the conference finals a few weeks ago. Genuinely curious how you responded after making that bold proclamation? It?s been painful constantly reading it the last few years but would gain a lot of respect from me if you at least owned it.
Wolves win and secured 6th seed.
Looks like a first-round bye for LAL, one-man Antman can't beat their Big 3.
Basically first two rounds are bye series for the Lakers lol. They'll curbstomp the Rockets next round as well
lol
Sorry to interject, but you are being a bully.
SparzWizard can have a differing opinion, that is the purpose of a forum.
I'm sorry but I very strongly disagree. I don't think I am being a bully at all (I am a bit curious what you think that word even means in this context here cause bullying is "the use of force, coercion, or threats to abuse or dominate others, often based on perceived differences or imbalances of power." This seems like an incredible stretch for anything I said here which was generally cordial and about accountability for repeated proclamations for multiple years with a simple "my bad"). There are all sorts of people that made projections about the playoffs or any other number of topics) that have been wrong including myself, and that's totally fine. Heck someone could laugh at me for all the times I used to say fire joe and I'd laugh right along with them.
If you consistently pick one topic for 5 years and jam it down everyone's throats (not even mentioning it is our biggest historical rival) and time and time again are not even close to accurate it becomes obnoxious after a certain point. I didn't call him any names or insult him, just asked for a little accountability for saying the same things 50 times for 5 years and said it would earn some respect for me if he did so.
The forum is a much better place if we can all show a little humility at times it contributes to much better discourse and in some cases even friendships (of which I have made a few over the last 15+ years on this forum). But if this is considered bullying? it's a pretty sad commentary on the level of discussion on here at the moment.
(Clay I'm pretty sure some of his posts are meant to be "hyperbolic" aka jinxes) 
@biased fan: Thanks for chiming in. I don't think he was being a bully (even tho clay always likes to come look for me after every Lakers L for some reason, guessing he's a big fan of me or something

). But you are indeed right that I have my own differing opinions on things. Weird opinions too, yeah, but I'm sure others on this forum have stranger thoughts.
@celticlay: Relax. Hyping things up help make the world go round and round (and eventually come crashing down). It helps keeps forums engaged and on their toes in some ways. At this point, it's already happened so take what you will. Next year, you may still see the same stuff (if this forum is still alive) esp if they somehow get a serviceable Center so advisable to maybe keep scrolling away

I'll send you a pokemon reference along the way. @Phantom has an idea of this

Now if u excuse me I have to mope for the next 48 hours before Game 2.
