On The Death Lineup, Brian and I made our predictions for Warriors Vs. Kings.
You can listen to the entire podcast to get our full context.
Brian believes that the Warriors are losing game one because of the raucous Kings crowd and eventually win four out of the next five to get them out in six. I can see that, but can also see this series going to seven games if the Kings get out to a 2-0 lead.
It should be a fun series and really sets up a great second round matchup no matter who wins. Warriors vs. Lakers? I think the NBA would love that most. Kings vs. Lakers? That renews an old rivalry from the early 2000s that's dead and gone. Warriors vs. Grizzlies? That would be the most heated matchup in the playoffs from the standpoint of two teams who really really dislike each other. And that dislike also reaches the fanbases. Grizzlies vs. Kings? That's probably the one that means less to television ratings and such, but is a matchup of two young teams who could really be coming into their own.
Predictions:
Brian: Warriors in 6
Garrett: Warriors in 6
