i'm president of the harden haterz club. perhaps the charter member. but he's earned some respect since going to philly. he's accepted his secondary role, and the team has been better for it. that said, i laugh pretty hard at harden adulation while laker fans grouse about AD's up and down offensive performances. i mean, harden never almost defends well, so the fact that he shows up big on offense twice in 4 games shouldn't be THAT big of a badge of honor. AD does that while playing soul-destroying defense, and people yawn and/or fuss.
AD is top 5 to me bro..I don't care about the noise surrounding him, he's just been hurt. Anthony is a unique talent..we'd be dumb to trade him IMO Now James Harden..hey I'd take him for D'Angelo. He's still the superior player IMO. Dropping 40 ain't easy in the regular season, doing it in the playoffs deserves some respect.
The sun's owner should have been ejected lool. I wonder which of these two teams will be better for the lakers if we get through GS
We are 16-4 in our last 20 games played. Folks better recognize that this squad is for real. This is not some kind of fluke..the Lakers are a legit title contender. It doesn't matter who we play...THEY are going to have a problem.
Nuggets looking like frauds again, getting nothing from their bench. Suns don’t even have Paul and they still tied up the series.
Suns playing 4 out and then basically hoping and praying Shamet or Warren hit something. Doubt this will work on the road but Booker has been ridiculously good enough to keep them in the series. Still not a fan of their offense and KD/Booker are averaging 42mpg+ - don't think is sustainable. GS and Lakers would sweep the Suns IMO
Denver starting 5 is awesome: legit championship caliber but their bench is Bruce Brown and nothing else. They're not even trying Bryant or Reggie Jackson the two guys they got at the trade deadline
