Broke my heart to see Lolakers, another LBJ mercenary team, bite the dust; should have consulted with Gentry to find out how difficult/frustrating it was to keep a healthy Davis on the court all those years in New Orleans. Dang those HOMEGROWN-core Warriors led by ET Cury who robbed him of the 6-ring legacy he desperately sought...Looks like Nets-Bucks is going to be bigger than the East Conference Tittle Series, and, for all practical purposes, even bigger than the NBA Finals Series. Methinks only the Giannis-led team can stop the HARDEN/KD/IRVING Mercenary team from winning the title it was built for...
Somewhat crazy stat which came to me today - Steph has only lost 4 playoff series (I think he's win 19 if my calculations are correct) in his entire career. Each of those was to really good or great teams - the Lob City Clippers, the 2013 Kawhi-Duncan Spurs (who were a second away from beating the big 3 Heat to win the title), the 2016 Cavs with LeBron, Kyrie and Love and the 2019 Raptors who were the best defensive team I've seen in quite some time. And all of those series were really really close - 6 tough games to the Raptors and Spurs, and 7 super close games to the Cavs and Clippers.
That's a hell of a playoff resume. I know his somewhat late prime (for all-time greats) plays a big role in this, but still.

Dame was eating clutch for breakfast. What was that game
lol, MPJ forgot to put on clothing for the post-game presser.
Non-LBJ Lakers starters shot 3-17 tonight. Not a lot of depth on that roster.
It'll never happen but I'd like to see Steph and Dame in the same backcourt, defense be damned
and CJ craps the bed. Dame you need a new partner in crime lol
"Lebron's not going to go down without a fight, he never has"
Ok I guess the 2011 finals doesn't exist
I guess LeBron's shoulders just aren't big enough with AD out.
Klay's 11 3s was still more impressive though
Uh oh, 3pt playoff record watch for Dame
Denver blew it twice now. If Portland finishes the job here they're winning in 6
Lillard. OMG.
Alright man, Dame really has a thing for the clutch
Dame time! Beats buzzer again to set up 2nd OT. 50 points on 21 shots.
Looks like CP3's starting to break down
