Coming from a diehard Lakers fan this hurts but I hate seeing the season over before it begins.

My hate for the Warriors punk moves is greater.

The only team that can play at all with the Warriors is the Celtics. They need to do the same and sign Dwight Howard for the same mid level exception.

Celtics can get home court advantage with an easier path and a lineup of Irving, Heyward, Brown, Tatum, and Horford stand a punchers chance.

A healthy Boston was GS’s only real threat from the EC this year. Would have easily swept the Cavs if healthy.

If they land KL or AD without losing anything they’ll waltz into the finals and might even win 2 games against GS

I wonder if the boogie thing will make Boston more anxious to make a big deal or less

I would think less. I wouldn’t trade the future when the present is stacked against me

I’m a big Celtics fan and we don’t have a chance at all. Homecourt means nothing to the Warriors. We’re gonna get swept badly. Even Kawhi wouldn’t change much.

Depends. A fully healthy Leonard without giving anything up would change a lot, but since that’s impossible...

The Celtics at least has a likable team and coach so I would definitely pull for them against the Warriors.

That would be better than any Laker package they seem to be putting together, plus Pop sends him east.

No way I would give up that much if I’m Boston unless you got an extension

I’m all for it as long as Jaylen isn’t included but that won’t happen. Spurs love them some Jaylen.

I come to hate the Warriors more over the last few years.

The 80's back and forth was when I began liking the Lakers. I was born in 77' and starting rooting for the Lakers in the mid 80's. Have stayed since. In the 90's both were middle of the road until Shaq and Kobe joined forces. Only time the Celtics and Lakers have been good at the same time over the last 30 years was for about 3 years.

So the hatred has subsided. As Lakers fan the Spurs were more of an enemy than the Celtics in recent history.
