Poor Suns.

They don't deserve this.


Lottery teams bitching out against Utah, denied Phoenix their rightful #1 spot.

[GreatHILL]

the Suns will sweep the lakers.

[coin24]

Incoming chris small failure to add to the career

[madmax]

just wondering, is this gonna be the only playoff series in NBA history where the Nr2 seed is an actual underdog against the Nr7 seed?

Yeah, it's just extremely bad luck, you get a top 2 seed and the team you get in the first round is the LeBron/AD defending champs It's not even CP3's first time getting fcked over in a matchup like this, he led the Clips to the 3 seed only to get the defending champs in the first round AGAIN in 2015 lol

I honestly can't even remember a 2/7 matchup where anyone thought the 7 seed had a legitimate chance to win, let alone be the favorite

I feel horrible for them, the team / organization, and the city...


they haven't been relevant in such a long time, have a beautiful season full of signature wins, and their reward is an anti-climatic 1st round draw against the defending champion powerhouse, which will likely result in them winning 2 games at best.

Smh.

It ain't right.

This should have been Utah's destiny.

LeBron in 5

Vogel if you're Reading this, start Caruso and play AD at the 5 for 100% of his minutes

Thank me later!

I got LA in 6. LA's rust is still there offensively. Most Lebron first round games will have him probing for weaknesses and by game 3 the team locks in.

4 days off is huge for Lebron and AD. Tough team in the suns but less gimmicky scrambling defense like GSW.

I find it hilarious that poor Utah is hated so much on ish only because xiao talks so much shit, similarly to Clippers due to H_Brick

[Airupthere]

The Lakers have a full cast. AD getting ring rust off by the day. This should be another "taking care of business" series for the Lakers. I expect them to win it within 5-6 games.
