We haven't made the playoffs in YEARS, and you are worried about 2nd round purgatory?

Curry was fine coming back from down 3-1 against OKC, yet when they blow a 3-1 lead against the Cavs, suddenly he was hurt.
Draymond was suspended one game. K Love was out for a game as well.
2015, Warriors losing to a team that is down KYRIE AND LOVE and it takes freakin Matthew Dellavedova getting hospitalized and his body shutting down on him for them to win.
The Draymond suspension is so overplayed lol, yet we rarely hear about all the injuries the Cavs faced back to back years in the finals. |
Yeah, but that one game was the non Game 7 closeout game at home.
Thats HUGE!
Also, lets not forget about Ray Allan saving him against the Spurs. LeBrons performance at the end of that game was unlike any megastar Ive ever seen.

have you watched him this season? He has been terrible....jacking up bricks left and right. Dude only plays 15 MPG and gets up 11 shots....makes less than 40% of them. |

Dlo is a free agent? I doubt he wouldn’t be too prideful to come back to LA tho |
The pride issue might be leaning the other way with Magic unable to admit that a mistake was made. |

Deflecting how bad we suck despite having LeBron James, by trying to say "Well even if the Clippers are better.. they aren't making it out of the first round so hah!" is the deepest levels of smh as it gets.

We lost all of them.
what we have right now.
Mcgee
Tyson
Lance
Rondo
We lost 4 quality players and added 4 losers...minus Rondo |
Those guys are losers?? Lance went to 2 straight conference Finals, Rondo, Tyson & Mcgee are all champions.Smh Luke isn't the right coach for this team & the team's spirit was crushed by trade rumors. Put those combination of guys anywhere else and there more than likely playoff bound. |

i do not think so at all....so Ingram, Ball, Kuzma, Randle and Russell who is already an All Star will not improve? That team could easily develop into a contender. |

Clippers made their open shots. Difference between a playoff team and a non playoff team really. Not to mention all the times the Lakers didn't make the extra rotation, or fight hard enough for rebounds. |

| So I’m trying to find reasons to stay interested in these games and tonight I was counting our scores after stops. I might’ve missed a few but from about 4 mins into the game we’ve had 41 chances to score after a stop and we only scored 16 times in half court and shot 7-10 on fts we got in those situations. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad but it does speak to why we can’t ever come back once we fall behind or pull away if we’re ahead. |

Nope..
But throwing a huge contract at Russell and then praying he plays up to it would be Magic's biggest slice of humble pie.
The next would be giving Randle a contract he deserves.
Magic going after Russell and Randle in the off-season instead of 'punting' again would help. Put the money to good use and pay the people that would have been getting paid it anyway had they remained here.
But to do that they'd have to pay Russell a limit that Brooklyn isn't matching. I don't think Brooklyn would have a problem with that. Randle is easier obtained. But would their agent want to deal with the Lakers ever again?

They are being run perfectly fine, but we are a joke.
Why should we laugh at them.

of all the shortcomings this year there is one that percolates to the top... it’s not injuries, it’s not lack of the talent, not lack of scoring etc...
we just can’t play defense..... |
