Cavaliers will sweep out Heat by 4-0 as it seems. The same for Thunder against Grizzlies as well. But none of them is surprising considering how tough the matchups are for Heat - Grizzlies duo. Tongue

Nice to see that Lakers won Game 2 to make it 1-1. But still I expect a very challenging series for them. The team still don't look ready for achieving bigger goals. But having Doncic in roster is very promising for the future no matter what.

Especially in the first game, the fact that the Timberwolves scored easily revealed the Lakers' defensive weaknesses. Dallas was a more complete team. Although the Lakers won the second game, Dallas looks like a more complete team. Luka Doncic contributed greatly to the Lakers' victory in the second game, and I expect more contributions from LeBron James and Austin Reaves in the upcoming games. The limited contribution of the reserve players is another problem for the Lakers, though.
