Damian Lillard is named the new MVP with the most votes unanimously. The superstar led all games in the bubble with an average of 37.6 points per game.

An anecdote when he was younger.

"Don Lippi, how the team coach was known, was extremely demanding and strict with Lillard since his arrival.

He even told him that his chances of reaching the NBA were very low.

His height did not help much, he was barely 1.67 m, and that he was more on the bench.

When perception breaks all obstacles...

I'm not really thinking about the mafias but it's all about how they'll perform for their very first game.

So, who's you're bet for this match? Blazers?

Those who are a fan and has become a fan of the Blazers after their spectacular performance in the bubble, this one is a good read for you.

The Blazers Are Surging. The Lakers Are Struggling. An NBA Upset Is Bubbling.


So, I like  to ask the fans here, what do you think the Blazers will have to do in order to upset the Lakers?

Do you believe this is possible,? can you rate it in the scale of 1 to 10, 10 is the highest.

People overreacting on the Blazers and Lakers thing. I understand that Lakers didn't really played a great ball in the bubble so far and everyone is thinking that maybe it is due to fact that they are not prepared for the bubble and that break really hurt them, and everyone is overreacting on the Blazers because they played such a huge bubble period and Dame even got the bubble MVP award and they got CJ back now who played very well and even Melo is playing like old melo so I think it is quite good looking but they are still the 8th seed.

I feel like when the series starting, it may not be a sweep for Lakers but it would be damn close, the very best I can sense is Lakers in 6, but I say Lakers in 5 is a great possibility as well. I feel like everyone on Lakers and specially Lebron will take up a whole lot of notches when playoffs starts.

Ah I understand, first game, I'll go with the flow placing my bet for Blazers with +5.5 handicap the odd from the site I'm placing my
bet is @ 1.9

I personally like how the team played the last time, Nurkic  and Melo is stepping up helping the Duo's (Lilard and CJ)

The last previoue game of Blazers was pretty good. I thought Blazer gonna lose that game with Grizzlies. Lilllard had put so much effort in that game. However, they will going to face the best team in their conference (Lakers). They were unlucky this time and if I were them I will only bet to win to which they can decide when to throw a game. Probably that is a sure money for them but prettt sure a loss in their team in the play off. My bet here in the best of 7 games play off is Lakers. Hopefully gamblers should be able to predict winning game in the play off.

Am I the only one who is excited to the 1st game of Lakers and Blazzers? In these past games we saw that Liliard have hot hands where he scored 60 points 2 times in a row. It is unbelievable while the Lakers have bad start in the NBA bubble. But we are now talking about playoffs and for sure all of the times want to win. It will be a tough match for me but still the lakers have the upper hand the Blazzers is the underdog.

I might follow this one, I will be betting on the Blazers to win in game 1, no point spread, I'll get them at Moneyline, if they lose, I will bet against them in game 2 until the series ends. Not settling for the + points here though it's attractive, I just want to see how far they can go.

Portland Trail Blazers is on-fire on their last games to qualify for the playoffs.

But just come to think of it, they become on-fire because they are fighting for the playoffs spot where it's really close. They are heavily pressured because a single game loss will lead them into elimination. It's like they are fighting for their lives lol.

Now that it happened, no pressure now on Game 1 as even they will lose there's another game. I hope the same fire level will be shown on Game 1 even they aren't under pressure now. Lillard back then is confident they can beat the Warriors last playoffs meeting with this team and the same statement now again stated against the Lakers. And not that Lakers, he is confident they can beat any team. I like the level of confidence, they needed it, but hopefully, he won't be carried away.


It's because of LeBron that people mostly criticized.

Since he's on the Lakers, it's a domino effect.
