In the wake of the Los Angeles Lakers winning the NBA championship, sports analyst Skip Bayless insists that the season would have ended differently for the Purple & Gold had they faced the Clippers in playoffs.

The stage was set for the Lakers and Clippers to meet in the Western Conference Finals, but the Clippers were knocked out by the Denver Nuggets in seven games.

“On the inside of the Lakers rings should be a little inscription: *Avoided the Clippers*. You avoided the one team that would’ve knocked you off! You got to play the longest-odds team to make an NBA Finals, down 2 of its best players,” Bayless said on UNDISPUTED.
