What Curry did the last few drives is an example of what teams will do to the Lakers with no AD in the paint...

Wow, looks like LeBron finally just went for the full bald look like MJ and Kobe before him.

I might like them better than Sacramento and Phoenix. Spurs coming up too though. The bottom 2 spots for the play-in is going to be very competitive.

Blazers will take their spot

I don't know about that one lol

It’s going to hit hard when Luka leaves to the join Jokic on Nuggets when his contract is up

I wonder if that might actually happen. He has said he wants to play with him.

They are.

If they get healthy and Nnaji actually stays useful (he's playing well lately), they're definitely a legit threat.

Going to pass Houston tonight and get into the 3rd seed. Houston has lost 5 straight, and this will be Denver's 5th straight win.

Agreed that they just need to be healthy, because their starting 5 is as dominant as ever lately.

Kyrie didn't look too enthused on the Mavs' bench either, worst body language I'd ever seen out of him as a Mav. He finally showed some smiles from ruining the booing Celtics fans days when he was out there but he looked miserable on the bench. Can't blame him, the GM who sold him that his voice was important traded his two best friends on the team away (Luka and Morris) in a backstabbing fashion.

Lakers certainly play A LOT faster and more decisive without AD. Not as much moseying around.

Lakers are taking it to teams right now. Well oiled machine.

Dude Draymond would be amazing on this team. Absolute defensive savant. He's on Lebrons level when it comes to being a general on that side. Even better than Lebron imo.

They're peaking at the right time.

Hopefully Russ won't be out for too long.

As a newly unabashed conspiracy theorist, don't worry, the league and the mafia will never let that happen

Curry looks depressed.

Lakers give LeBron Luka.
Warriors give Curry a headache Draymond and Jimmy

Imagine a GM trading Jokic because he's doughy

Mavs only need a decent playmaker to run the offense and let Kyrie be offball a little more.

Other than that Mavs are a great team if healthy.

Who wins?
