Not worried about the play in, worried about having a full team, if they're healthy then it's just an extra game or 2 to get back into rhythm for another championship run. AD finally looked back for the first time tonight despite the loss was an encouraging sight, but as per usual the offense staggers without Lebron and Schroder. Schroder is out for H&S so he should be good to go once that passes, only real concern is Lebron being healthy in time. Only way the Grizzlies or Spurs are gonna knock off the Lakers is if they're missing half the team, in which case they would be a 1st round exit anyway.

Jazz and Suns should be worried more than anyone, imagine having to play the Lakers and Clippers before even reaching the conference finals lmao.

I've never understood that argument

Teams play better when they face top teams early and win

they wouldn't have won late

There is no way to prove your argument its just what ifs and coulda shouldas

--
The point of the argument 100Percent is making is that a team can get a deep playoff run/good playoff experience before having to face the expected finals contenders and getting fleeced. Compared to a tough fought first round exit; longer playoff runs are good for the fans, they're better for the team, etc.
