Lakers

The Lakes have a great opportunity to close the streak with Portland in the next meeting and calmly move on, but how easily they will succeed depends on the opponent.

The Lakers lost the first match, so they threw all their strength forward. LeBron James and Anthony Davis did not spare themselves and did everything possible so that only the leader of the West would not make a mistake again. Frank Vogel's wards won all three of the next fights and will once again take to the floor as the clear favorite.

The club from Los Angeles thinks only about the championship. This is especially noticeable in the game of King James, who always wants to win, although this is only the first round of the playoffs.

Portland

If the “trackers” had spent a little less energy at the end of the main tournament, then the situation could have developed quite differently and the team fizzled out, which was perfectly used by the opponent.

Portland took the Lakers by surprise in the first meeting, because they managed to get the victory (100-93). After that, Terry Stots' team began to surrender sharply, as a result of which they lost three times. Even the efforts of Damian Lillard did not help so much, by the way. The leader of the Blazers injured his knee and is unlikely to appear in the fifth match of the series.

In short, the Blazers will most likely end up in the playoffs, as there are so many players in the infirmary, which will clearly affect their play.
