    2nd round= Trash Rockets without rim protection for him and AD

    3rd round= Extremely tired Denver without rim protection for him and AD.

    Then you get to the finals, where they'll play a good team in the east without a top 10 player against two top 5 players. I personally can't wait for when bronsexuals start gassing up 25-year-old jokic and 23 year old murray like they're modern-day shaq and penny, so they can make it seem lebron beating them was impressive, "when lebron beat jokic and Jamal, that made him the GOAT right there"-Bronsexual. Lebron once again proving why he's a fraud

    What did LeBron have to do with it? It was the others losing. LeBron may have an easy or a hard road to a possible ring, a'ight. But what does he have to do with that? Others should've won. It's not LeBron's fault the Blazers had injury issues. It was Giannis and the others losing, not LeBron.

    Your 'train of thought' is malfunctioning.

    The top seed always has the theoretically easiest path to a chip. Thats the whole point of fighting for it.

    OP obviously not as shrewd as LeStrategy.

    The Clippers falling apart really lessened the path. Who could've seen that coming? I do somewhat agree with your assessment of Denver in that they have nobody to guard Lebron, and nobody to guard AD. Based on their playoff starter minutes, they're going to put Jerami Grant on Lebron and paul millsap on AD... which is less than ideal. Nuggets are going to have to play out of their minds offensively to win. And Heat/Celtics do lack superstar power. Jimmy B and Tatum are borderline superstars but I don't think theyre on Davis or LBJ level and there's only 1 of them on each team while AD and Lebron have each other. It's another 2v1 situation that can only be made up by historic 3 pt shooting and a choke on the Laker side.

    Mia doesn’t stand out that much talentwise and dragic is elevating his play more than anyone, don’t know if it’s sustainavle. bos could look good however with healthy Hayward back.

    Yea tatum might not even be top 10 but they’ll have an all-nba guy, a solid all star, two legitimate fringe all stars who are some of the better 3rd/4th guys we’ve seen this decade besides dray and klay and a super role player in smart with some solid center depth.

    Judging by what we've seen so far, it's denver now who has the toughest path to the finals. The odds of them overcoming two hyped la clubs in the same postseason run is only little here.

    The Heat have a legitimate chance because they have guys to defend both Lebron & AD & have superior 3PT shooting & a better 1-9 rotation. There are some 2014 Spurs similarities here in terms of how balanced the roster is. They can switch everything & they'll play zone and force the Lakers into more bad shots than Boston, who have no one to put at the 5 to protect the paint & who would have Kemba out there for ~40 minutes a game on the defensive end.

    Lakers potentially have an easier WCF now, but it's not as guaranteed of a chip as some make it out to be, especially not in the bubble Playoffs with no HCA.

    I mean Dragic is a bad defender and so is Duncan Robinson (although he’s better than Dragic IMO). The Heat aren’t the Raptors defensively (they don’t really have any weak points besides Gasol on switches), although Bam is a monster for sure. I think the Celtics would give the Lakers the most trouble personally but they’d have to win this round to do so. They didn’t look like the better team in game 1 versus the Heat buy Hayward coming back could change that.

    Yea the heats system is really good. All guys who can shoot defend or do both but their guys are a lot more versatile than Houston’s. Herros a future star imo.

    I still think dragic is over performing a bit. He was a top 5 bench guy during the rs but he’s playing like a clear all star right now who Miami relies on heavily for shot creation and gives them a “big 3” with butler/bam. He should be a defensive liability at least but not getting attacked much in the playoffs though spoelstra deserves a lot of credit for that(played zone heavily vs kemba)

    No. Let's be real. If Giannis and the Bucks were going to the Finals you wouldn't say that this "is the easiest chip." You would probably say that this is one of the greatest chips in league history.

    Simple as that.

    Giannis said himself that this is the toughest championship that you could ever win.

    "I feel like a lot of people say that there's gonna be a star next to this championship," Antetokounmpo said. "I feel like, at the end of the day, this is gonna be the toughest championship you could ever win -- because the circumstances are really, really tough right now. So whoever wants it more is going to be able to go out there and take it."

    This. RetardBoy3 is still throwing tantrums over Giannis AndIcometochoke's dismal failure playoff campaign. LMAO. Making excuses as usual. Perhaps Giannis AndIcometochoke wouldn't have twisted his ankle if he actually had a decent fundamental skill set to work with.
