How Can You Root Against the Lakers Making the Playoffs?

[SilkkTheShocker]

Everybody who knows basketball thinks they are the team to beat in West.

But you dont know anything about it, so its okay.

Best team in the west isn't saying much. The west is very open this season. I dont think the Spurs want anything to do with the Lakers.

D'Antoni will never beat Pop in the playoffs, i can guarantee that.

Pop got outcoached by Scott Brooks last season. I think Pop is the best in the business. But he might have lost a little off his fastball over the years.

I want them to win. Why would anyone in the world want the Jazz to fcking be in the playoffs unless your a Jazz fan.

Im not even trying to hate on the Jazz either. But would you rather see Al Jefferson or Dwight Howard? Kobe Bryant or Gordon Hayward? They got a nice young team. But just aren't fun to watch at all.

For once this idiot has a point.

Jazz are boring and would lose 4-0. I want to see the Lakers make the playoffs because I want to watch a good series.

Last year's Spurs-Jazz series was the most boring series I've ever seen.

Hawks and Magic in 2010 give that series a run for its money. Orlando won every game by like 25 points

I'd rather watch Hayward myself than the douche bags not to mention Burks, Millsap, Kanter, Carroll, Tinsley, Evans.

because its funny seeing the most stacked team in the league not making the playoffs

[BoutPractice]

I'm rooting for the Mavs. If they don't make it, I'm okay with the Lakers making the playoffs for entertainment purposes.

[SCdac]

I can understand wanting the Lakers in from a marketing standpoint, and I don't think the Jazz are a ratings-magnet...

But objectively speaking, are the Lakers really that exciting? ... Seems like alot of iso, broken plays, and tepid chemistry at best.

[Groovy Kat]

I hope they get in and win just so Nash can have a ring. Don't really care about Kobe or anyone else. I've never been a Lakers fan but I would definetly rather have them in than any other non-playoff team.

[jzek]

On one hand you have the LA making for perhaps one of the best first round matchups. On the other hand, you want to see Kobe fail yet again with 4 Hall of Fame bound teammates.

Because half this board would be on suicide watch.

This right here is reason enough to root for the Jazz
