I’m deeply impressed with Calvin Booth’s 5D chess playing. Very decent chance the WCF is: nuggets vs lakers Right now, LA’s biggest Achilles heal is minimal bench scoring, minimal size, and certainly no good backup option for AD. The backup option was Thomas Bryant (!!!) who was killing it for them. However, Bryant voiced displeasure, and Calvin didn’t miss a beat, sending over seconds to get him. I’m still surprised by this because Pelinka is a damn good GM. In what universe are you trading such a good player for seconds? Which gets me to: I know Thomas Bryant has been terrible on our team. BUT — removing him from the lakers has severely hurt them. If we get into the WCF, against the lakers, our bench unit facing Bryant may have been the factor that loses the series for us. When Bryant became available, booth didn’t hesitate, and I don’t think he cared whether Bryant played well for us or not - the bigger goal was to injure the lakers. Booth-5D. i can support this. Only way that trade makes sense!

Yeah LAL are not going to the WCF. Kings/Warriors will trash them in 5.

speaking of the Kings, Scott Foster assigned to G7
I guess it's written in the NBA Charter that the Kings are not allowed to advance against a more popular team in their state.

Isaiah Hartenstein is really playing nicely for the Knicks rn… too bad Malone didn’t use him

Cavs looking like real geniuses for buying out Kevin Love right about now. Who needs rebounds, 3s, and a smart veteran with a ring in your playoff run, right?

Lowry really stepping up with Jimmy Butler hobbled.

I bet on Kings, which of course means Dubs will win.

Yep. Best player on the floor and nobody else has been remotely close. Entire reason why GS is going to win this game. Lakers/Warriors is going to be awesome. Don't see how LAs perimeter players have a chance defensively.

Sabonis had such a horrible series. Looney abused him today for 21 boards.
