Lakers to lose to Celtics in 7. My man Larry Bird MVP.

Millsy

Lakers obv. Can’t see Jimmy Butler and Co troubling them all that much.

bosstrabs

Wait, I was joking. I thought the Lakers were dogshit nowadays. When did they become decent again?

zackster

bosstrabs this season, pretty much.

Jimmy Buckets in my fuckin boy. Hate that he is no longer a Sixer but still got nothing but love for the man.

And now Golden State are worse than one of Matt Balck’s jokes, looking at the tables.

Fucking hell, this league changes more quickly than the Premiership (glacial) or NHL or NFL.

The Raptors (Go Raps) had a tough go with the Celtics, but I felt as if their season hadn’t been interrupted a la Covid, they’d have made it to the final again.

Based upon what I saw of the Celtics vs. Raptors, I thought they were going to win the whole lot.

I gotta say though, this year’s playoffs has been the superstar rising of Denver Nuggets and Kitchener, ON, Canada (born and raised like me) native, Jamal Murray’s year. He just blew the fuck up for them.

How is scottie pippin’s back?

Heat in 6. You can get that at 10-1 right now, too. Don’t see how the Lakers can stop the Heat’s guards. They’re basically a team of 2.5 (Lebron, AD, and a half of Rondo - maybe 3 if you want to throw half of Dwight on there).

My GS Warriors had a rash of injuries. Durant (who left anyway), Klay out for the year, Curry broke his hand. They never had a chance. They have a trade exception, Wiggins big ass contract, and the second pick in the (albeit terrible) draft. That could get them something to get them back in the mix.

jonattonyeah hope ur right 🤞🏼

Millsy

jonattonyeah dragic 6pts, Herro 14pts and Robinson 0pts. And 6 assists between them. Go guards!

Millsy

No. He’s not.

Now that everything has been thrown off whack, when is ‘March Madness’?

And what is it?

Millsy

bosstrabs college basketball mate. Arguably more exciting than the NBA.

Millsy

Well. Game one in the books. Lakers absolutely walked it as expected.

Not even arguably. Way more exciting!

jonattonyeah

Millsy

Yeah, they did not play well. At all. Knew they wouldn’t have an answer for Davis but I expect them to bounce back. They can’t let KCP and fucking Caruso slow them down. That’s absurd.

I have seen March Madness LIVE with our very own Zackster in NYC!

Scones!

Millsy

jonattonyeah dragic out for next game at the least. Bam and Jimmy also hurt. AD and LBJ double punch is far too strong. I can’t see them folding, even for one game. Lebron has his stern game face on so its over, sorry.

jonattonyeah

Millsy

Yeah I think you might be right. Lebron and Davis are just too much.

The beat reporters have identified big problems for the Lakers, that will be exposed in the coming games, so its safe to say that LA are going to sweep the series.

So one of the younger superstar players is going to out LeBron having a mistress then? Haha.
