James Wiseman's hair is interesting rn

It literally looks confused like he doesn't know what he wants to do with it

Nobody should want to play the lakers in the playoffs if lebron and AD are healthy(bron is probably healthier than last season), that’s 40 minutes for each player and can be more on any given night., with the game slows down, that matters


Other than maybe Denver I think every other team would be scared to see them.


And even then I think not having Brown and Green will show in the playoffs. Jackson and Jordan just don’t change the game like they did

Hell no. The starting unit is thriving because of the way he cuts, the way he rebounds when used in the interior, and both Bron and AD can pretty much catch their breath with a simple throw it to Rui on the block play.


Yeah I agree. It will be interesting to see what Ham does though. Vando is good and all defensively, but Lakers need Rui's easy baskets, and 3pt shooting. Both AD and DLO and... Bron are constantly hitting Rui for easy buckets

Hmmm

I know people always focus on Jokic, but it is actually Murray that kills us every time, it is frustrating, he laid 2 eggs after the lakers game, one with him scoring 3 points… just keep making those impossible shots


KCP killed us too when he put up 15 a night that series and shot 45% from three. Then Brown averaged 12 himself. Their whole three headed back court took ours out back and kicked their ass

I like that and Worthy also pointed out how they ran and when they wanted to slow it down they would just toss it to Rui on the block. That’s in a playoff series good leg management right there if Rui can post up 2-4 times a quarter and just conserve the amount of hits Bron and AD take

The lakers will have some really tough minutes decision once everyone comes back, really tough ones. I know people hates Prince, but him playing 20 minutes is actually a big positive for us. Gabe probably won’t get minutes if Spencer keeps playing well.


And then you still got Max Christie coming back. Reddish, Vando, Prince, Gabe... the Lakers have a crowded squad

MPJ was the one that didn’t shoot well, even Gordon was making 3s on us. Their team shot 40% from the 3 for the entire series.

Yep they sure did.

That should be an interesting broadcast on a variety of levels.

Pretty much. That’s why it’s imperative that Bron, Dlo, and AR take about 25 threes between them and hit about 10 to spread the floor back. I mean people talk like AD didn’t give them 40 and 10 or he didn’t average 28 and 14 in 49/80/50 splits himself vs Joker. Even hobbled, if Bron had got 10 more points out his guards that series is vastly different

It's a nice, refreshing break from the constant b****ing and moaning from old man Stu.

Nice win Lakeshow!! Complete game, tight rotation until garbage time.
Little too much LBJ but maybe that's for chemistry building.

Spencer looks nice!! Welcome home Dinwiddie.

It was easy minutes for him, he didn’t even move much on defense, only got 1 rebound, not worried
