    Joe Mazzula should be fired. That’s gotta be the worst coaching effort I’ve ever seen.

    So we can really win this championship if we beat OKC. Boston is out.

    Why are we even playing if we don’t think we can win? We can beat OKC we can win this championship.

    Advice to NBA if you go inside and you play post and you don’t shoot threes. You will win the championship!!!!!

    The Reason I like the Lakers is because LeBron Ayton the way they play inside outside post play Reaves they can win in the playoffs. That’s playoff basketball.

    They don’t rely on 3’s Smart. They have a deep team.

    I’ve always liked this roster Hachimura.

    LeBron looks different out there and there’s nobody on OKC that can guard him.


    the Lakers are a very balanced team. I thought Houston was the best perimeter defensive team in the NBA with the 3-D with Thompson Eason and Durant and Tate just size length even Sheppard and Smith.


    and the way the Lakers ran through them was eye opening. OKC has Dort and Williams. But Williams has a sore hamstring and the Lakers will go at him. Holmgren is good. But Ayton can put his body on him.

    we ain't beating OKC or SA without Luka and even with Luka the Lakers would rightly be dogs. But the sad part is I think Smart missed those OKC games - the defense is night and day when the Lakers had a healthy Lebron and Smart so not having a fair shot blows
