If the Clippers lose I can’t wait to see where Kawhi goes
Jason Williams
May 24, 2021 at 2:24 pm
@krakenz playz personally I think he’d be okay even being the third option as long as they’re winning, he might even go back to DPOY type play since he won’t be asked to score as much
Jason Williams
May 24, 2021 at 2:25 pm
@The Goat Yh I think that’d be even better for the league overall though, they’d be a tough fight but not completely dominant

@Kaliba King nah they can’t, realistically it would have to be a sign and trade or something with draymond and wiggs out for kawhi who’ll want the max. Could work but prolly unlikely b

Hes a world champion, Perkins had a successful career in the NBA, the ratio of making to the NBA and to maintain a 10 year plus career is dam near impossible, shout out to Big Perk

Clippers 1000% is the answer, if they go down 0-2 then it’s gonna be in PG head and then it’s really a wrap
optimus prime
May 24, 2021 at 2:40 pm
that only depends on how pg plays. if he gets 25 points on good shooting and they still lose game 2, he is still gonna be confident

The Lakers can’t afford to go down 2-0 to this Suns team, all Suns have to do, is win game 2, win ONE of games 3-4, go up 3-1, and have 3 attempts at closing them out, the Suns can win this

So Stephen A can interrupt Max while he’s speaking, and 5 seconds later tells Max, “don’t U interrupt me while I ask” stfu Stephen A U always interrupt Max and change subjects on him at all costs to prevent him from sayin his argument entirely, so U don’t get schooled as bad, we all notice it, check the comments lol

I think the Lakers will be down 0-2 losing both games in Phoenix. Because the Lakers are the 7th seed and 2 seeds win the series over 7 seeds 91% of the time.
LeGoat Sharpe
May 24, 2021 at 6:02 pm
but it’s different circumstances though a 7 seed is favored over a 2 seed

None. So if either go down 0-2, it’s over

It’s more over for the Clippers than for the Lakers. And that was the question.

I think both are equally bad tbh… if they lose in the 1st round it’s an upset! If they go down 0-2 both will be in HUGE trouble.

You can trust LeBron to fight back down 0-2. He has earned the benefit of everyones doubt.
The clippers are facing a team that absolutely believes they can get them up out of here. If KP can stay healthy, i can see the Mavs in 6. Clippers cannot afford to lose at all

Stephen A says, “We’re not knocking the Suns, we know the Suns can win the series”. This is after Perk opens his big mouth and says, “I’m not worried about LeBron James or this Laker team going up against the Suns, especially with a not healthy Chris Paul”. Clearly indicating Perk never gave the Suns a chance to win this series, and is in fact knocking the Suns. He’s sleeping on this #2 seeded Suns team, that has the NBA’s best road record and has a chip on their shoulder. A chip from being listed an underdog vs the Lakers, a team they finished 5 seeds above. Perk always picks LeBron anyway, so why bother bringing him on the show to ask him what he thinks?

Far too much of ESPN’s NBA coverage has turned into putting down other teams and players in order to prop up LeBron’s status. Max always claims Steph’s a choker in order to make LeBron look better. Perk always says the Lakers will win and always down plays other teams chances. There’s the network’s constant implication that the all-time GOAT debate is between LeBron and Jordan only. I realize that LB is your “Golden Boy” ESPN, but do a better job of at least trying not to sound biased every show.
