And this is possible that they face each others in one of the first 2 rounds.

Its a hypothetical question. As a life long Lakers fan, i wish for the most entertaining path to the finals of course, no sweeps / gentleman sweep but really three great series where my lakers can show how they deserve to be back to back WCF winners.

The underdog: the Clips. Lakers would win though and I don’t think it’ll be particularly close.

The Clipps got their a** beat twice by the Nets. Legit a** whooping. Full squad. No need to send them to the finals, they have players who can be guarded.
But if we send AD and Lebron with their A games ready to go, the Nets have major problems.

Clippers. Lakers are insufferable. I think Denver walks away with it though.

Clippers have very very less to like about.. from my PoV.. so it's easy for me...

I'd rather 5-6 teams win before Lakers and 15-16 before Clippers..

Agreed. Those two 4 point losses were so dominant that the Clippers set the record for biggest loss margin in history. After those losses the Clippers should have written Silver a letter declaring they will forfeit the season because of how humiliating that 8 point loss between two games was.

The point being, if the Clipps meet up with the Nets, the result has already been decided. They cannot defeat them. They've played with full squads. Where Utah didn't get that chance. We did not get that opportunity. So there is an unknown factor there. But not the Clippers. If the Clippers face off with the Nets in the finals, they might as well start the Nets Championship Parade the same day

The Nets would be favored. The Clippers have played them as tough as anybody (not talking about Nets not showing up vs bad teams) among the good teams. These aren’t mutually exclusive. You made it sound like the Nets have just crushed them. In both games the Clippers had control until late in games when they choked and Nets hit big shots (normal Clippers behavior).
