The Lakers have played the same seesaw game all season long. They can't hold a lead, can't play consistent, can't defend as a team, can't defend the pick and roll, can't make threes, they run a predictable offense, and basically just aren't very good this year. Not enough shooters and not enough bench. The worst teams in the NBA have given the Lakers a dogfight all season long. The Nuggets were no different. OKC in five or six.
Clips able to grind it out and headed to the second round, their fans are in full freak out mode.
