Lakers in 6. Experience matters, LeBron and AD won’t let the kids run them out of the playoffs.

[Klypto]

Staples Center is gonna be rocking. LeBron still has that aura, but Shai is fearless.

[Raze]

If Shai keeps playing like an MVP, OKC could shock the world. But I still think Lakers edge it.

[Xylo]

This series comes down to AD’s health. If he’s dominant, Lakers advance. If not, Thunder’s speed wins.

[Zynx]

Calling it now: LeBron drops a vintage 40-piece in Game 3 to swing momentum.

[Zynx]

No matter who wins, this series is gonna be a classic. Storylines everywhere.

@Hexor I don’t know man, OKC’s ball movement is crazy. If Shai keeps playing like this, they could steal it.
