@NBA@johnschuhmann@BetMGM right let’s have a Nuggets team that’s down 2-1 against Minnesota but not the team they are facing, I understand LA not being in here but the Wolves is just pure insanity
A look at where all 16 playoff teams stand as Round 1 heads into its second weekend of action!
@johnschuhmann breaks down the postseason picture in the latest Power Rankings presented by @BetMGM on the NBA App.
@ciaran200708@ESPNNBA It’s ok, LeBron dealt with much tougher opponents in his career in the San Antonio Spurs, and Golden State Warriors in his career, this won’t be any different (he’ll end up losing but he won’t be scared)
If you watched Lebron last night against the Rockets and the way he was outrunning everybody else on the court, that should be all the proof you need to know that hes on PEDS
@FrancUnderwoods@TitoToro_@UnderdogNBA@ShamsCharania I think he did this on purpose cause of Doc Rivers but once the season starts he’ll be motivated to go for ring number 2. But does he take care of his body as much as most days…
Updates on Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, per @ShamsCharania:
- Lakers not expecting Doncic to return in Round 1
- Reaves further along than Doncic in rehab process
- Reaves has started 1-on-1 on-court work; needs to go through 3-on-3 and 5-on-5
- Reaves tracking to return late in Round 1 or early in Round 2 if Lakers advance
Marcus Smart has been the best Laker this post season followed by Kennard. These two have been leading the Lakers and carrying the team. What a fairytale!
🚨Victor Wembanyama has the highest PPG in playoff HISTORY:
📈35 PPG - Victor Wembanyama
📉33 PPG - Michael Jordan
📉31 PPG - Luka Doncic
It only took him one game.
@twowayshai LeBron took a bigger role for the playoffs and is known to thrive during playoffs… even if Luka wasn’t injured they’d still be favorites to win the series
