2023 Playoffs: Around the League Round 3 (WCF/ECF) News Thread

We sure weren't wrong about Russell.

Yikes. Dude is not getting paid again.

What do you guys think the results of the Denver/LA series will be at this point? I'm thinking 4-1 Denver.

I think so. LA wins one of their home games, but Denver closes out at home. I don't see LA making it a close series.

[Kryptonic]

I really hope Denver wins it this year for a change.

[In2ition]

Denver is the one I want to win out of these final teams, but yikes, it hurts when a team, that's never even been to the Finals, wins before my long suffering Suns.

[Kryptonic]

Yea.... but it does give me some hope that we'll get there too. It's better than seeing the usual L.A., Boston or GSW winning it.

I think there's a really good chance it goes back to Denver 2-2.

Denver is still my title favorite, but Miami has a crazy look about them.

Fixed that for you.

[Split T]

Or they thinking bigger..Jaylen Brown? Brandon Ingram?

[Wally_West]

My trade suggestion in the other thread got em both OG and Ayton

[Mori Chu]

Lakers down 0-3, lmao. Gtfo.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Definitely not going back to Denver 2-2.

This is the Lakers team I remember, too much expected from a bunch of guys who should only play 20mpg. Kinda like the Suns…

The Denver franchise started a year before the Suns and have only one trip to the ABA Finals (1976) to show for it. I certainly am routing for them.

It's nice seeing some new blood (the Nuggets, Bucks and Suns) getting to the finals in recent years.

Plus, I hate the Lakers. A lot.

The math checks out.

Just wanted to share how happy I am that we drafted Bender over Murray. Couldn’t have worked out better for us.

AND Marquese Chriss over Domantas Sabonis, in the same draft! Winning!

[TOO]

I really enjoy being reminded of how many guys I wanted to draft and we didn't.
