2026 NBA Playoffs

[White Lightning]

The NBA Playoffs are in full swing. The Lakers beat the Rockets in Game 1 tonight behind 27 points from Luke Kennard. The Lakers have most of their star players hurt but got the big win today. Kennard was 5 for 5 from the three point range. Happy he is getting to start with Doncic & Reaves out with injuries. I still feel bad for Dalton Knecht though as he never plays anymore. Too good to ignore but he needs to leave the Lakers a.s.a.p.

In the losing effort Reed Sheppard had 17 points and 8 assists for the Rockets.

I didn’t watch the game, and don’t really plan to unless the nuggets make the finals but it was great seeing them get the W in game 1. Jokic can’t carry the whole team but with a healthy and productive jamal murray and aaron gordon the nuggets can win it all. Would be great for Jokic’s historical resume.
