One thing is for sure: you are going to have to bring your A game, every game, if you are going to beat Denver out of these playoffs. I am nowhere near convinced that LA can do that.
Golden State is a good comparison but I'm still not sold on them. I think they got a great draw (earned) the perfect draw. Take out the four head to head meetings and they had the same record against the rest of the league as we did.

I also don't like the fact that their defense seems to be so dependent on steals and blocks as opposed to making the opponent take a lot of tough shots.

I'll admit that I could be selling the. short. They're certainly not the same team they were 3 or 4 months ago.
