Curry missed play offs
LeBron and Durant not even making the first round interesting.
Harden, Westbrook and Kawhi also probably going to get bounced in the first round.

Times are a changing.

Magic by 23
OKC by 21
Celtic up by 25 in the second quarter.

No pressure Lakers, but lets make the last game interesting.

I would say the Lakers/Nuggets series was more interesting than the 3-0 indicates.

The Lakers led all 3 games at halftime. And led by 20 in the 3rd of game 2 and lost a very exciting 4th quarter. It's as good as done now, but 5 quarters ago the series had a very different look.

They put a graphic showing it was the final time a team held a 10+ point lead in each of the first 3 games and lost all 3. They were competitive games, the Lakers just needed to win 1 of them and this would still be a good series.

And yeah, all 4 games were competitive last year also. Not a single blowout game.

Thats cuz Jokic is the Vin Diesel of the NBA.

He understands winning is winning. Win by a basket win by a blowout it doesnt ****ing matter. He’s not interested in style points.

He’s pure Serbian Meat and Potatoes.

I remember the NBA Finals of 1983, Lakers vs. Sixers (newly with Moses, rematch of the finals the year before). It was almost funny that the Lakers were ahead every game at half. It felt kind of like Nancy Reagan being ahead of Mike Tyson on points half way thru the fight, and Tyson pissed about it. Sure enough the Sixers swept to the title, the last game being an historic gutting in the 4th quarter.

It's going kind of like that with the Lakers and Nuggets. It doesn't look like as much of an M&Mer, to me at least, but so far fitting the same category, and the Lakers +2.5 games biting the dust.

The '83 Sixers should be on the shortlist of the best single season squads in NBA history.
