    Lakers really bad at 3. They don't deserve this game.

    3pt %
    Lakers: 5/32 (15%)
    Blazers: 13/34 (38.2%)

    Portland's going to be hard to beat with Lillard making 35 footers with less than 5 to go every game.
    The dude is in a zone.

    Yall laugh now but we match up better with the Lakers than the Blazers. I hope Davis nuts up for this series and Lebron gets a bit more help.

    LeBron finally knows what the western conference is all about.

    And Portland is just the 8th seed.

    Most of the west is garbage. I think the rockets and clippers are good. Portland didn't have one of its 3 best a players for much of the season.

    We will have better chance of winning against the Lakers than the Blazers.

    Lakers have to be the worst 3pt shooting team in the bubble.

    I want no part of Portland. Dame seems to be in Russ's head.

    Lebron filled up the stat sheet, but the Lakers need that 40, 8, and 8 playoff Bron

    Is he still capable of doing that on a consistent basis

    other than that, the Lakers are lunchmeat...AD is sus, and the rest of the team is a joke

    Great close-out by Portland. This Portland team reminds of JVG 1998-99 Knicks team that went to the Finals from the 8th position.

    I respect the hell out of Portland. The game was rigged as F and they kept their poise
