Go in there and kick them in the teeth and steal game one. Set the tone for the series. Go Lakers! _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.
I think the Lakers will have an advantage for game 1 being that they've had three days off to prepare. The Warriors have a quick turnaround with only one day off. I love our chances to go in and steal game 1. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.
Im actually confident in this series although admittedly, the Kings would have been a lot simpler. Beating the Warriors will be good for the confidence of our young guys and really believing we can win the title. We are kinda like on our 2008 run with hopefully a much better ending because these Celtics are not as good and dont have the togetherness and leadership as those Celtics.
Im sure Bron, AD and the Lakers are thinking steal one? How about we just steal both road games like we should have vs Memphis
How about taking one game at a time. And we could have lost game 1 at Memphis if Morant didn't get hurt. That game was close. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.

No way.....that game was always meant to be ours. We controlled the pace and flow of that game from start to finish and they were lucky to have a halftime lead. Anyone critically analyzing that game knew we were the better team. You think Morant of all people was going to alter the "Im him" moment????

That game was close when Morant got injured. Could have gone either way. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.
Like I said the Warriors look like us from 2011 - a title team running on fumes with major chemistry and connectivity issues whereas we look like the 2011 Mavericks.

Could have gone either way implies you think 50-50. More like 75-25, we were winning whether he plays or not and that 25 is generous.

It doesn't matter. It seems to me you think this series is going to be easy by thinking they could take 2 games in GS. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold.

What were the chemistry issues with our 2011 team? 57-25, the same record as 07-08 and 09-10, and the #2 seed. I remember it more as Pau disappearing for some reason (some speculated Shannon Brown sleeping with his girlfriend) and Kobe being on the verge of retirement from a bone-on-bone knee. And even then, we were right there with the Mavs during every game except the last one. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:
Attack! Attack! Attack! Wear them out trying to defend us so they don’t have the energy to shoot 3’s. Never let Curry, Thompson, Poole, Wiggins get comfortable or relaxed.

Could be. In terms of talent it shouldnt be. But in terms of talent and matchups, we should have swept Dallas in 2011 not the other way around. They held practically zero advantages over us back then. But one team was peaking and coming together, the other was a fading champion running on fumes with chemistry issues. We most likely wont sweep GSW but I think harder matchups are ahead than this one. Even if we take a 3-1 lead on these dudes, it will be unlikely we close them out in the Bay and that Game 6 will have all of us on pins and needles like the Memphis game.
