Pretty much called it. I was on the fence about last nights game. I’ll stand by what I said the other day and also say lakers in 6. It’s wild to see a team like Portland (who has a few high powered offensive players) but not have a strong defensive presence, and as you mentioned can’t keep teams off the offensive glass...play the Lakers who are stacked asf in the front court, yet their shooting just isn’t there. KCP stunk it up last night, and Danny Green didn’t look much better.

I could play the if game for any team at any point. The Lakers haven't looked good, you don't need stats to tell you that. I was close to picking Portland before the series started anyways, after last night, I feel more confident about them.
Answering a question. What is to you? Were you born an asshat, or did you learn that at U6?
Think it was a game time decision, so I would expect him back next game. He played in game one just fine. And yea, it was a calf.
Wild. I had OKC winning this series. So far, Houston looks like a bad matchup for them.
It was honestly a miracle they made the playoffs with that roster. Chris Paul’s best job to date as a leader. What he did with that team was very impressive. Figured Houston would win in 5 or 6
Dude, he’s balling. I knew he was good, but he’s def an all star from here on out.
AD looking dominant. He’s the key to this series imo. If he plays up to his talent, dude is unstoppable. Loved that pull up 3 too.
Gotta be careful....Lillard can torch your ass, and quickly..
They have absolutely no one that can guard him. And it’s almost not fair when LBJ and him are both on the blocks. Double comes to LeBron and Davis has an easy dunk every time.
Hope Portland makes it a game. Hate blowouts in the playoffs
Yeah, that two way tandum in the post..when done right is something of beauty.
McCollum and Dame need to do their thing, but imo Melo needs to start making shots when they double Lillard or Mccolum.
CJ looks off tonight. Not sure what it is. Dame looks like he’s trying to force it a little too. I’m not sure why, if the pressure should be on any team it’s the Lakers. Let’s see what the Blazers do after the break. 17 points is hardly anything in the NBA
He looked fine on Tuesday. Either way, I could end up wrong about this series. Won’t be the last time
Man, he looked good out there. Jazz look solid as anyone when Mitchell, Conley, Gobert are clicking. I still think this series goes to 7.
