Will it?
Honestly, I think it's just gonna come down to OKC being a little fools gold.
If they're as good as their metrics say they are, LA can't beat them even if Luka has his best series. If they're aren't, I'm not sure Luka has to be any better than his historical averages in the post-season to beat them.
But I'm obviously biased. I thought LAL had the talent to be the 4 seed LAST season and got Darvin'd into the play-in. I've liked a lot of the guys on this roster for longer than many.
I just don't think this Lakers team was ever as mediocre as they looked last season at least when they were healthy. And right now they're pretty damn healthy.
