Here's a thought that may not have been mentioned...
The Suns, who had an opportunity to beat the Clips to play us in the first round, chose to still sit out all the starters. With all the history we are apart of with KD, CP3 frustrations, and Booker who Klay reminds that it's about the rings, they could have easily said to themselves "let's win this game vs the Clippers so we can show the cocky Dubs who we are" and do some damage control to those respective legacies. To win the game and guarantee an opportunity to evacuate the defending champs, who are a big question mark in terms of who they are, had to be a consideration.
But as it were, all they ended up choosing to do was to sit down everybody even including Dame Lee! A move clearly opted to secure the loaded Clippers instead, who incidentally many chose to win it all early in the season.
Dwell on that for a minute when you ask yourself which teams really want to deal with us.
Not to insinuate that we would be any sort of a favorite in this match up, what I do feel is that even who many consider are the favorites to win it all, the mighty Suns, treaded carefully when faced with the choice they had to directly take us on. I'd call that a sign of major respect.
So either the Lakers beat the Wolves, and the Grizzlies are in a battle in the first round, or they have to play Ingram (assuming New Orleans beats OKC) in the 2nd play-in. Then Kawhi and KD in the 4-5 game. Playoffs are going to be great.
I couldn't watch today's game and am about to go out again for the rest of the day but... 157-101? Really? Even against their bench mob that's one helluva blowout. Looking at the numbers, I noticed all the 3-pointers and that the Splash gang didn't have to play too many minutes. I saw that Moody did play big minutes and scored 25, which is exciting. But gee Kevon played 21 minutes and "only" got 8 boards, no double figures, so I guess we have to trade him now. (No freakin' way.) If I get a chance to watch a reply later, I'll see the destruction for myself. Gotta go, catch y'all tomorrow for E1P! E1P! E1P!
ladies and gentlemen, thank you for another amazing regular season. Bring on the Kangz!!

This game was not infuriating.
So we play the kings then the winner of 2-7?
Obviously we beat the Sactos. We then play the winner of which matchup? I haven't done this 3-6 business before.

Light the meme Kangz
After all of that, Austin Rivers didn't get in the game at all and he still sucks!!

Timberwolves beat the Pelicans 113-108. Wolves move to 42-40 and #8 while the Pels fall to 42-40 and #9 in the West.
I just want to tell you all that Eric can't be bothered to love you with that level of opponent. Sorry.
Last time Warriors and Kings were in the same postseason: 1975
