  1. Nobody’s questioning Ja’s firepower here

    Hot take, 2nd seed is better team than 7th seed

    🤯

    Why do I care about a coward coach too afraid to come out And say it?

    I hate the word “unguardable”. Ja is a prolific scorer, but he’s not a particularly efficient one. If he is unguardable, then what is KD? Everyone is guardable to some degree, and Ja is a lot more guardable than the best of the best scorers in the league, as good as he is.

    Eh, they’re missing Steven Adams. That’s gonna screw them bad, they need his size and defense for AD

    if the lakers can get jjj into foul trouble regularly, this will be a series.

    if jjj can be the best version of himself, grizzlies should win convincingly.

    A human being has a subjective opinion about who will win a playoff series!?!?! *gasp*

    The Athletic charges people to read this groundbreaking sports journalism.

  9. ReignMan616

    Calling a guy who scores at below league average efficiency “unguardable” is a stretch. Ja Morant is really good, but come on now.

    Local man has 2 seed beating play in team. More at 11

  11. Still-Programmer9506

    Honestly though, how are the Grizz going to defend AD? Seems like the Lakers are going to absolutely dominate the boards

  12. HinduHamma

    Who the fuck guarding Lebron and AD lmao.

    JJJ got cooked everytime against a healthy AD. They got no one on the bench for AD when JJJ gets into foul trouble.

  13. biglyorbigleague

    That’s why Ja can’t ever go to jail for his gun charges: he’s unguardable

  14. spiderman2811

    Especially when Ja got that thang on him

  15. detlefschrempf11

    If the lakers play like they did 2 days ago they are getting swept

  16. Vapenayshion

    Subscribe, but I doubt it.

    Grizz missing a ton of size and reblunding with Adams and BC out.

  17. LocalParanoiac

    I really think my least favorite type of nba “news” is these spicy quotes from an “anonymous coach/executive/etc” who either doesn’t believe it enough or is too much of a coward to say it publicly.

    Truly the lamest shit.

  18. ahaddad321

    Nobody is gonna bet against LeBron when we all do it all the time and he says fuck you.

    especially if AD decided to figure it out missing Adams will be a HUGE hit defensively even with JJJ.

  19. monsteroftheweek13

    It’s funny the OP went with this title when the Scout and Executive in this piece both picked the Lakers

  20. Mikimao

    As a Laker fan, let me be the first to say we are stoked to even be here.

    We started 2-10 and now we are in the playoffs. We are playing with nothing but house money right now. If the 2 seed beats us after *that* season, am I really gonna be that shocked?

  21. TheNorthernLanders

    Unguardable, as in, travels too often but gets away with it?

  22. bigatjoon

    That same coach has the Warriors sweeping the Kings which is just fucking insane.

  23. AnyEstablishment5723

    In all reality AD will be a pretty big test for the legitness of Jarens defense, the lakers have been really good at getting to the paint and the grizz are playing small most of the time without Adams

  24. showmeyourmoves28

    I never doubt Lebron. This will be fun as hell that’s for sure.

  25. Drpaxtie

    Ja Morant can travel to any part of the court he wants to, unguardable!
