Jun 1, 2021 at 9:43 PM - Cookie: At least we played the second half to a draw with Phx. It was that 10 point second quarter that killed us
Jun 1, 2021 at 9:43 PM - The Showtime Mamba: It just sucks that Chris Paul has been off the court so much and the Suns have still won three. He has not been needed with Booker and the others stepping up.
Jun 1, 2021 at 9:43 PM - BangBoomPow: this is schroder last chance to prove himself so he will be motivated. I think lakers will need to start Kieff+Gasol instead
Jun 1, 2021 at 9:44 PM - JD: Goodnight, y'all. I hope you have a good night's sleep, and an enjoyable week in this miserable heat.
Jun 1, 2021 at 9:49 PM - Khmrp: maybe magic will share some capt obvious crap as inspiration lol
Jun 1, 2021 at 10:18 PM - ADKOBE: avoid all sports media outlets the next few days
Jun 2, 2021 at 5:16 AM - ADKOBE: Lakers want to rest their bodies in their mansions, to much physical and mental adversity for them

 

Jun 3, 2021 10:54 AM - ADKOBE: Iakers will have a blowout win tonight
Jun 3, 2021 7:33 PM - Cookie: Go Lakeshow.
Jun 3, 2021 7:38 PM - Manve77: Let's win this and not embarrass ourselves. Last chance for KCP, Kuz, Wes, Shro, McLemore to prove they are worthy. They s*cked so far.
Jun 3, 2021 7:38 PM - JLaker17: Interested to see how we show up tonight
Jun 3, 2021 7:46 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Get mad. Stop getting punked .
Jun 3, 2021 7:46 PM - JDLakersFan2019: I cannot imagine in a do or die scenario especially for LeBron that we don't come out ready to play.
Jun 3, 2021 7:47 PM - JDLakersFan2019: LeBron is 36 years old so you know the sense of urgency is gonna be very high for him, LeBron is our leader, and sets the tone for everyone else.
Jun 3, 2021 7:47 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Ok boys let’s push thing to game 7
Jun 3, 2021 7:48 PM - Cookie: Ready to rumble
Jun 3, 2021 7:49 PM - Cookie: Nice pass by Gasol
Jun 3, 2021 7:49 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Ad not look right.
Jun 3, 2021 7:49 PM - Cookie: AD should not be playing
Jun 3, 2021 7:50 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: AD hobbling badly
Jun 3, 2021 7:50 PM - Cookie: Sit him down.
Jun 3, 2021 7:50 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Ugh.
Jun 3, 2021 7:51 PM - Cookie: Nice Bron.
Jun 3, 2021 7:51 PM - KobeJeterKaep: They hit all 3s
Jun 3, 2021 7:51 PM - Cookie: They will cool off
Jun 3, 2021 7:51 PM - JLaker17: Cant keep up with them and their shot making
Jun 3, 2021 7:51 PM - karacha: AD can't play
Jun 3, 2021 7:51 PM - karacha: like, what is the purpose of that?
Jun 3, 2021 7:52 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Omg. Ridiculous.
Jun 3, 2021 7:52 PM - Cookie: Guard Jae.
Jun 3, 2021 7:52 PM - karacha: we don't have time to wait for them to cool down
Jun 3, 2021 7:52 PM - Cookie: So he doesn’t get called soft
Jun 3, 2021 7:52 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Not the start we needed. Lots of basketball still to play though
Jun 3, 2021 7:52 PM - 432J: These guys are mentally checked out
Jun 3, 2021 7:52 PM - 432J: AD should not be playing
Jun 3, 2021 7:52 PM - karacha: he better sit, because he's going to make it worse
Jun 3, 2021 7:53 PM - KobeJeterKaep: They hit 3s, KCP and Dennis still missing. Simple.
Jun 3, 2021 7:54 PM - Manve77: when the last time we hit 3-4 3s to start the game? (((
Jun 3, 2021 7:54 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Danger time already.
Jun 3, 2021 7:56 PM - Cookie: Stop letting Dennis shoot
Jun 3, 2021 7:56 PM - Weezy: Schröder is playing so bad
Jun 3, 2021 7:56 PM - Cookie: Bring in AC.

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 7:56 PM - Weezy: That’s the only upside if we lose, he’s gone
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:57 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: I admire AD’s heart, but please sit down
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:57 PM - Cookie: I think he’s gone either way.
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:57 PM - Weezy: Nobody moving at all, just watching leBron in the corner
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:57 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Same issues all season. Terrible offense. Can’t hit 3s.
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - Weezy: D
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - 432J: KD moment. Called it
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - KareemtheGreat33: AD is done
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - Cookie: Please sit
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - Weezy: AD is done, should have never played
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - JLaker17: Injuries and lack of shooting the theme of the year
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - Cookie: This was SOOOOO stupid
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - karacha: ok, he tried, he should not return
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - 432J: What a moronic decision to play him
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:58 PM - karacha: i mean, we're realistically done for the year
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:59 PM - Weezy: Yeah, we’re done, just not our year, too many injuries, never built chemistry
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:59 PM - karacha: even if we somehow beat PHX, we're done
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:59 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Yep. kD moment. Season over .
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:59 PM - Cookie: Please be ok and just stay seated.
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:59 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Appreciate the effort AD. Got nothing to prove
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:59 PM - Manve77: we re done
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:59 PM - Cookie: Gasol playing much better defense then Drummond
Jun 3, 2021 at 7:59 PM - karacha: just realize this wasn't our year, we were unlucky and let's recuperate, make some changes and try again
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:00 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He shouldn't have played
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:00 PM - karacha: no reason to make a big deal out of it. just don't re-injure that groin or something else
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:00 PM - 432J: How was that not out of bounds?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:00 PM - Weezy: I’d like to at least not go out like punks, keep it single digits
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:00 PM - karacha: i mean, are we on the same page here guys?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:00 PM - Cookie: Lebron stop just looking at Payne while he grabs a rebound
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:00 PM - Weezy: KC3
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:01 PM - Weezy: Yes, Karacha, it happens.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:01 PM - 432J: Lol embarrassing
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:01 PM - karacha: disappointing but not the end of the world
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:01 PM - Weezy: Sometimes it’s just not your year, Phoenix smells blood in the water
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:01 PM - Cookie: Bring AC is and sit Dennis please

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:02 PM - JLaker17: Gotta sit Scrhoder, he is scared to shoot
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:02 PM - LA Bron: Just not our year guys
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:02 PM - Cookie: He’s not scared to shoot, he just doesn’t make them.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:02 PM - LA Bron: Excited for what we do with this roster next year.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:02 PM - LTLakerFan: Schroder the 25M man
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Phoenix will be lucky to be an 8th seed next year. Book it
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - JLaker17: He has passed up at least 3 open threes already, then just dribbles into the lane and fumbles the ball
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - karacha: dodged the bullet with dennis
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - Weezy: Yikes
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - LA Bron: TREZZ
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - 432J: So basically this will be a repeat of last game
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - karacha: i think we're done here
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - Weezy: I didn’t think this one would be over in the 1st
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - Mitch: Wow
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - Cookie: Dennis has shot five shots more than anyone
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - karacha: i kinda expected more but ok
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:03 PM - LA Bron: Devin Booker looks like Prime Kobe rn. Wtf.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:04 PM - KobeJeterKaep: F. Booker. He pushed Dennis in game 3 and never paid a price for that. This team is soft.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:04 PM - timothy: do the suns really make the lakers not want to try? no shots in the paint, still so damn tentative. it’s the freakin suns. how’d we beat them by 30 a month ago?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:04 PM - Khmrp: some of these roll guys gota go next season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:04 PM - Mitch: Props to Phoenix I guess... they seem ready for the moment
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:04 PM - KareemtheGreat33: it's been a great start to the season but we were handicapped with a short off season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:04 PM - LTLakerFan: These guys have shot lights out whether in LA or at home. Hard to defend that s***
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:04 PM - timothy: the body language even when AD was in just wasn’t good for the lakers, like they dont care honestly
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:04 PM - timothy: sucks man. feels bad man
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:05 PM - 432J: No one's doing anything out there. They've quit and it's obvious
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:05 PM - LaVarBallsDad: It's how they are getting those shots. It's a beautiful offense
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:05 PM - LaVarBallsDad: In stark contrast to our offense.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:05 PM - Mitch: And we r just reacting
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:05 PM - 432J: No one's attacking the rim and they all hesitate to shoot
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:05 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Welp retool and gear up for next year. It happens
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:05 PM - timothy: i hope rob is watching every minute of this one. he needs to truly understand we need straight ballers and players that are competent at ANY type of shooting
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:06 PM - Manve77: we have no ball movement, and they hit all shots.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:06 PM - timothy: send us 10 shoot first guys this summer please.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:06 PM - timothy: i hate how lebron just quits too man, still grateful for last year. but man what a brutal way to leave

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:06 PM - Mitch: Def doesnt look like Lbj putting team on his back. Maybe he can’t do that anymore and that could be ok. But then we need more on the roster
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:07 PM - Manve77: looks like Lebron quit too...Kobe would never
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:07 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Cranjis McBasketball @Tim_NBA · 4m Putting Gasol in without being more aggressive on ball screens on defense + having him rolling on offense and not going 5-out is an awful use of Marc Gasol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:07 PM - Cookie: Lebron is still not healthy
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:07 PM - Khmrp: bron leeway, rest of these role guys do not
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:07 PM - 432J: He's not healthy and he's old
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:07 PM - Khmrp: brin has leeway and
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:07 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Rob underestimated the leadership and defense of Javale and Dwight. Too many me first guys on this team
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:07 PM - Khmrp: disappointed in kuz by alot
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:08 PM - timothy: dwight was a massive loss.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:08 PM - timothy: kuz has reverted back to his previous self.....
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:08 PM - Juronimo: This isn't our year. We'll be back
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:08 PM - Mitch: Agreed. And rondo
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:08 PM - Cookie: Go into Trez and see if he can do something
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:08 PM - Weezy: Showing some fight now, but they HAVE to make shots
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:08 PM - Cookie: Nice Kuz
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:09 PM - KobeJeterKaep: 12 points so far. Cool.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:09 PM - Cookie: Nice defense by AC.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:09 PM - Khmrp: they n he gets swarmed cause pho dont respect any of our shooters
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:09 PM - Khmrp: after so many yrs kuz handle hasnt improved much
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:09 PM - ADKOBE: lakers will come back
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:10 PM - Weezy: This one definitely hurts, but looking for silver linings maybe it will force Rob to look for a 3rd star I dunno
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:10 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Booker on Bron. And Bron passes. Yikes.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:10 PM - karacha: bron just isn't healthy.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:10 PM - ADKOBE: i like the Lakers chances
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:10 PM - Cookie: Just too many injuries this year.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:10 PM - Weezy: We just cannot score
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:10 PM - KobeJeterKaep: 12 points still.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:11 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: What was Wes doing?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:11 PM - ElginTheGreat: We just don’t have it.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:11 PM - Weezy: Booker is like Kobe mixed with Curry right now hahaha
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:11 PM - KobeJeterKaep: This looks like a G League team.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:11 PM - ElginTheGreat: Suns on fire.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:11 PM - Weezy: Jeeezus
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:11 PM - timothy: gosh i cant stand our scared team

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - ADKOBE: regular season game, a few players would be out
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Yikes
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - timothy: how do you guys watch this and not get upset?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - Khmrp: vogel can use all the timeout by halftime n still wont figure out booker
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - Weezy: Is this Bookers revenge for us not drafting him? Or for trading D-Lo?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - Khmrp: hes running around like allen/Reddick
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - karacha: he's going to drop 60+
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - Mitch: Hahaha! Wow! Well it’s like children playing against the monstars.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - ElginTheGreat: Definitely looks like a 2 seed against a team that needed a play in game to get to the playoffs.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:12 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Great quarter from Booker. Kobe would be leouje
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - ADKOBE: Danny Green defense on Booker
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - Manve77: we cannot even score easy ones in the paint!
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - timothy: booker has always been this damn good, i just dont understand why no one is sticking him like glue
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: All I got left is being a Mavs fan for a few days
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - Weezy: Who says we aren’t upset?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - karacha: i am sure our guys want to go home at this point
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - karacha: i'd try to make it respectable, but... maybe not possible
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Kobe would love it. Step on our throats.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - Cookie: Definitely go Mavs.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - karacha: yup, go mavs
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:13 PM - Khmrp: monty adjusted booker vz our d, vogel didn't adjust to nothing
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - Weezy: I’m Go Bucks
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - karacha: go luka until he loses, then go.. jazz?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - karacha: ugh
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Trezz should’ve never been benched
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - timothy: agreed on vogel getting outcoached easily all series
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - Mitch: Getting up at 4:30 in the morning to get slapped .D
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - karacha: in the east, go Greek
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - Cookie: Go Bucks too but Brooklyn is going to win that.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - Weezy: The Nets must be stopped I don’t care about anyone else
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - timothy: anyone but clippers or nets please
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - karacha: scored 14
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:14 PM - KobeJeterKaep: 14 points.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:15 PM - timothy: philly bucks are fine

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:15 PM - karacha: it might be nets, who knows
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:15 PM - Weezy: I guess we are watching a changing of the guard though
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:15 PM - ElginTheGreat: Booker knows he will probably not play in the 4th quarter so he’s getting his points now
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:15 PM - Cookie: Philly want win with Embid
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:15 PM - LaVarBallsDad: This Lakers team deserves to be dismantled
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:15 PM - LTLakerFan: Where do you live Mitch?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:16 PM - Khmrp: booker became klay, splintter became dame/curry
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:16 PM - ElginTheGreat: We will definitely look different next year
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:16 PM - Weezy: Trae, Luka, Booker, Mitchell, Jokic, Morant, etc
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:16 PM - LaVarBallsDad: We should
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:16 PM - timothy: i actually really hope denver crushes phx
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:16 PM - timothy: but that is going 6-7 games
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:16 PM - Cookie: Lots of young talent in the league
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:17 PM - ADKOBE: Lakers are to banged up. I still like our chances if this team was healthy
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:17 PM - timothy: do the lakers play slow because of their personnel, because of lebron’s way, or bc vogel wants it this way?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:17 PM - Manve77: injuries have nothing to do with bricking all these 3s...lack of talent does
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:17 PM - Weezy: Even healthy we are poorly coached on offense. We miss a ton of open shots, but we have to work too hard to get them also
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:18 PM - LaVarBallsDad: We won't be running this team back next year. I'll pack Schroders bags
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:18 PM - ADKOBE: poorly coached? Lakers won a ring with the same staff
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:18 PM - 432J: this isn't on vogel. its on these guys who forgot how to shoot
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - Manve77: minus Shroder, Kuz, KCP, Wes
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - timothy: forgot how to shoot/cant shoot, same difference
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - Khmrp: rob shouldnt be talking extension with vogel till end of next season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - LaVarBallsDad: The offense sucks. LBJ and AD went nuclear last year.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - Khmrp: dont be pre mature
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - Mitch: Don’t know how we can really upgrade the team, hopefully Rob does
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - Cookie: Coaches can’t make open shots for these guys.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - ADKOBE: injuries, plus lack of playing together killed the team
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - 432J: last year, KCP was draining 3s in the finals
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - 432J: rondo played great
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - 432J: bron and AD were dominant
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:19 PM - LaVarBallsDad: That, too
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:20 PM - Khmrp: trez gm just doesn't work in playoffs
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:20 PM - 432J: this year, bron is playing at less than 100%, AD is jurt, and no one can shoot
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:20 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Frank needs an X's and O's guy on the staff

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:20 PM - ElginTheGreat: Also last year that team liked it each other and played with a chip on its shoulder.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:20 PM - Khmrp: but vogel can design actual plays n sets
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:20 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Lebron had a good view. Standing around.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:20 PM - Khmrp: all i see is bron iso n sets everything up
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:20 PM - ElginTheGreat: This group doesn’t seem to have much of a bond.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:20 PM - karacha: I think I am just going to sleep. Have a pretty good idea of what the final score will be
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:21 PM - 432J: i dont get that sense at all about this year's team
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:21 PM - 432J: the only thing that's lacking is probably the on court chemistry, given all the injuries
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:21 PM - 432J: and the short offseason
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:21 PM - karacha: I'll see you guys tomorrow. Don't be mad, we'll be back. Need to re-tool for sure. Let's discuss it tomorrow.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:21 PM - Cookie: I think the team likes each other too.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:21 PM - Khmrp: no short off season this time
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:22 PM - LTLakerFan: I’ll pack Penberthy’s bags. Useless shooting coach obviously. I think he only came because AD was familiar with him. ( and ex Laker of course)
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:22 PM - Cookie: Night karacha
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:22 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Cranjis McBasketball @Tim_NBA · 11m Last year in multiple series they avoided making tactical adjustments and either put AD at C or played zone as ways to avoid having to solve those problems. It's also worth noting that Phoenix has done more tactically than we saw from any team last playoffs who faced LA.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:22 PM - timothy: what do you guys think lbj will do after next season?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:22 PM - 432J: maybe just sign nothing but 3 pt shooters this offseason, 1 or 2 are bound to stay good
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:22 PM - Khmrp: we have a shooting coach?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:23 PM - 432J: im going to guess next season will probably be lebron's last season of playing at an elite level
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:23 PM - LTLakerFan: Kh ... no LOL
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:23 PM - Cookie: What do you mean what will Bron do next year?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:23 PM - LaVarBallsDad: This is embarrassing
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:23 PM - Weezy: We need an actual PG that can shoot and make plays, let LeBron not work so hard as he ages, and Dennis isn’t it
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:23 PM - ElginTheGreat: I think LeBron will bounce back after some additional rest.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:24 PM - Khmrp: bron will can be elite till 40 if he doesn't get those freak injuries
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:24 PM - Weezy: These refs have called it haha
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:24 PM - Khmrp: people keep thinking hes goms fall off since he turned 30
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:24 PM - Khmrp: going
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:24 PM - Weezy: This is very much like 2011, damn
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:25 PM - 432J: bron cant stay dominant forever. he's going to be 37 this year and the amount of mileage in those legs is insane
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:25 PM - ADKOBE: Heat and Lakers weren't the same with the short offseason
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:25 PM - Khmrp: just use remaining 3 to vogel, nothing gona change "coach"
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:25 PM - ElginTheGreat: We will be minus guys the guys that don’t fit like Dennis and Drummond. No pouting about playing time, starting etc.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:26 PM - 432J: drummond is coming back
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:26 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Chris Haynes @ChrisBHaynes · 5m Source: Los Angeles Lakers star Anthony Davis (groin) did not injure his groin strain any further, but the pain intensifies when his mobility is tested.

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:26 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Stupid clearing him.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:26 PM - Khmrp: marc wont be back either imo
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:27 PM - Cookie: At least we will get plenty of rest this summer
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:27 PM - Khmrp: he either gets traded or buyout
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:27 PM - LTLakerFan: Schroder has been garbage since the covid vacation. He was nowhere near this bad prior. Dumb a**
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:27 PM - ADKOBE: Maybe Vogs should had game managed Lebron and AD in the regular season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:27 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Dennis has checked out.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:28 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Whole team has
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:28 PM - LA Bron: Dennis, Kuzma, Gasol. All these people should leave.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:28 PM - 432J: just bench dennis's dumb a** already and be done with it
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:28 PM - Khmrp: cant believe these guys hesitant to shoot, what u got to lose?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:28 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Rob knows. They'll be change.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:29 PM - 432J: everyone except AD, bron, caruso, and THT needs to go
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:29 PM - ADKOBE: popovich would had game managed his stars with the short offseason. but lebron is gunning for the scoring title
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:29 PM - Weezy: I’d part with THT and/or Caruso for the right star...
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:30 PM - KareemtheGreat33: solomon hill ended our season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:30 PM - Khmrp: kcp just ball watches smh
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:30 PM - Weezy: The title window with LeBron and AD is 1 or 2 more years
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:30 PM - BangBoomPow: Rob has a lot of work to do this offseason
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:30 PM - BangBoomPow: i think everyone has to go
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:30 PM - ADKOBE: Is pop available?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:30 PM - ADKOBE: lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:30 PM - BangBoomPow: excluding bron and AD
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:31 PM - Khmrp: ad,bron tht thats it
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:31 PM - BangBoomPow: coach K?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:31 PM - BangBoomPow: from duke?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:31 PM - Weezy: Nice KCP, just make this respectable
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:31 PM - BangBoomPow: THT cant shoot tho
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:31 PM - BangBoomPow: he will always be limited
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:31 PM - ElginTheGreat: Yeah. LeBron and AD have 2 more seasons max. We need a true third guy.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:31 PM - Weezy: KCP!
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:32 PM - Cookie: THT can learn to shoot. He’s 20 years old. Not like he doesn’t have time to grow.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:32 PM - ADKOBE: Bradley Beal
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:32 PM - Weezy: Finally signs of life and pride
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:32 PM - Khmrp: yep @Cookie

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:32 PM - BangBoomPow: you dont just learn to shoot lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:32 PM - 432J: we're not getting beal
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:32 PM - BangBoomPow: ask giannis if he can learn. odds are THT wont be a good shooter at this point
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:32 PM - Khmrp: what? @bang?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:32 PM - Cookie: See Jason Kidd as an example. Yes you can learn to shoot
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - Khmrp: so a player is who he is after 2 seasons?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: THT will be a star in a few years
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - Weezy: Cam Payne leaned to shoot I dunno
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - ADKOBE: THT drove to the hole to many times, never shot enough 3s this season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - BangBoomPow: yeah and the odds arent likely he will. most players who cant shoot dont end up being good shooters
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - BangBoomPow: just cause u can name a couple of players doesnt mean he can become a shooter
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - timothy: isn’t lebron a FA after next season? after 2021-2022 season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - Khmrp: Ingram qas 30% 3pt shooter 1st 2yrs fyi
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - BangBoomPow: no lebron signed an extension
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - Khmrp: shooting 40% now
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:33 PM - Cookie: I could name tons of guys who become better.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - timothy: or did he get that extension into 2022-23
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - ElginTheGreat: Signs of life.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - Weezy: Noice AC
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - BangBoomPow: ingram always had a midrange
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - BangBoomPow: not even the same
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - ADKOBE: Lebron kid
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - BangBoomPow: trade KCP+Trezz+Kuzma for Kemba? I dont know what else they can do
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - 432J: remember when lebron's jumpshot was seen as his biggest weakness? because i do
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - Weezy: Booker is on FIRE
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:34 PM - Cookie: Kemba is injured all the time.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:35 PM - Weezy: No to Kemba
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:35 PM - Khmrp: yea just what we need, injury prone guy with bad knees
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:35 PM - BangBoomPow: yeah but i dont think the lakers have any options. who wants kuzma, KCP at this point?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:35 PM - ADKOBE: A high iq point guard
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:35 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Glad I didn't take off work to catch the start of this game. Is it all over?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:35 PM - Khmrp: nobody knows nothing bang
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:35 PM - BangBoomPow: yeah it looks over showtime
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:35 PM - BangBoomPow: phoenix off to a hot start and AD is out for the game
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:36 PM - Khmrp: when it happens it happens

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:36 PM - ElginTheGreat: We will see who is available. I’m sure some surprises will get moved.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:36 PM - 432J: do they even have enough cap space to bring in another star?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:36 PM - ADKOBE: AD didn't have his Willis Reed moment
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:36 PM - Weezy: Yes it’s over showtime. Just want them to not lose by 40. They’re showing heart now ar least
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:36 PM - Khmrp: i remember bron couldnt hit 3s either in his early yrs
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:36 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Damn shame. I can only get so happy if the Clippers get knocked out.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - 432J: better to lose now than to the nets in the finals
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - timothy: how do you guys cope w this loss and knowing it’s about to end? having to wait until october or whenever they run it back
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - ADKOBE: The real Lakers didn't get beat
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - Cookie: No player ever gets better shooting after 20 years old.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - timothy: i bleed purple and gold, and my emotion goes w them and how they do
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - ElginTheGreat: Maybe we can at least get this under 20
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: The Nets would’ve swept us
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - Weezy: It’s just a game Timothy
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - acetabulum7: Not too upset. No AD no championship
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - timothy: wondering how so many of you just take it in stride with no effects
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - Khmrp: the hell u guys keep mentioning nets for?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - acetabulum7: Just get healthy next year and the chips should all fall into place
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - Weezy: There’s always next season, only one team can win it all every season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:37 PM - BangBoomPow: lakers were doing so well early into the season. #2 record and Lebron in lead for MVP. it was the injuries and COVID...
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:38 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Just looking at the boxscore. It seemed stupid to play AD. I figured he would just jump shoot if he was in today anyway.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:38 PM - 432J: not too broken up over this one. too many injuries and the fact that they just wouldn't have been able to beat the nets anyways
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:38 PM - Weezy: 29 teams fan bases have to deal with it, some teams NEVER win a title, we are fortunate
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:38 PM - BangBoomPow: and well i hate to say it no one on the roster can shoot in the playoffs
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:38 PM - Cookie: It was always going to be hard to win it all this year. Just is what it is Timothy.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:38 PM - ADKOBE: Lakers won it last year too
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:38 PM - 432J: this is easy compared to 08 and 04
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:38 PM - timothy: true. i just expect so much out of our guys, esp with what they showed last year and what they’re capable of you know. just sucks that the reality is this isn’t the same team
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:39 PM - LTLakerFan: Timothy you can’t win every year, right?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:39 PM - ElginTheGreat: Yeah. We’re spoiled Lakers fans. Some teams always stink. We will regroup and be back.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:39 PM - ADKOBE: Its more like 2011, Both Lakers teams were to banged up
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:39 PM - Weezy: They’re injured and they had like 16 practices this season, zero time to build anything
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:39 PM - BangBoomPow: lead is 19. still time to be honest
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:39 PM - 432J: try being a fan of the suns, nuggets, jazz, clippers, etc. teams that have been around for decades and dont have a title to show for it
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:39 PM - Cookie: It’s hard to win back to back even when healthy. This year was anything but that.

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:39 PM - Khmrp: only suck part to me is losing to those 2 whinny b****es cp360 n red face booker
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:40 PM - Weezy: I’m still proud of our guys for coming together in the bubble and winning it all for Kobe last season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:40 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I just wanted us to progress as far as we could, and in the cold light of day we have. I mean we don't need to be somebodies prize if we somehow fluked into the next round.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:40 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: 2020 was super special
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:40 PM - timothy: good points everyone. thanks. just needed some perspective bc i just get so damn angry, sad, and upset for a long time with laker reg season losses. this one is just... damn.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:40 PM - wallangong: Yeah let’s see if they can bounce back next year. This just wasn’t our season.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:40 PM - 432J: this just wasn't our season. started out hot but the season got derailed by injuries. it happens
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:40 PM - timothy: and yes, cant believe crow, payne are advancing. these guys are punks
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:40 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I will always be grateful to Lebron and the team for winning last year. It was a special championship, and I enjoyed it a lot.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - BangBoomPow: you think vogel is coming back? or will coach K get a look?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - Weezy: I used to live and die with every game too, but after watching for 3 decades I’ve leaned to put it in perspective
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - 432J: is that a joke? lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - ElginTheGreat: Vogel will be back.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - LTLakerFan: Vogel of course
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - Khmrp: 3 way snt, ds somewhere, kuz to spurs, derozan to us
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - ADKOBE: You have to appreciate all the Lakers , even Kcp, caruso etc for last year's ring
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - acetabulum7: Phoenix will eventually get destroyed.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - ElginTheGreat: Coach K is done coaching period.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - 432J: no one wants kuzma
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Weezy we are the Lakers we win Wars, not battles. I want to see us bounce back.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:41 PM - Weezy: I don’t think coach K wants to coach anymore, he’s retiring from Duke. Vogel will be back. I like Vogel we just need some better offensive minds on the bench with him
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:42 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Coach K would be 76 by the time his Duke contract is up
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:42 PM - BangBoomPow: u cant sign and trade with 3 players. it has to be that one player only
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:42 PM - 432J: yeah, this suns team will lose to denver in the next round
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:42 PM - Cookie: Coach K is not coming to the NBA.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:42 PM - Khmrp: K retired
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:42 PM - LTLakerFan: He’s retiring now
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:42 PM - acetabulum7: Rondo gave us the only semblance of an offense unless we keep LeBron at point.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - Weezy: Payne is acting like a clown right now
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - 432J: vogel's only problem this year was not figuring out how to play the big guys
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - Khmrp: splinter owning ds lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - BangBoomPow: cmon rondo cant save the lakers
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - ADKOBE: The thing is you can't rest Lebron i. the regular season, he wants the scoring title
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - Cookie: Didn’t they hit Dennis in the head there?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - BangBoomPow: not worried about bron. it's AD

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - 432J: i wonder which team will be dumb enough to throw money at cam payne
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - Khmrp: dont need to rest him, limit his minutes
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:43 PM - LTLakerFan: I wish a bad contract, less than he turned down, on delusional Schroder
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:44 PM - ADKOBE: lol you better start worrying, he's older
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:44 PM - Weezy: Oh he’s not getting paid now. He’d be lucky to get 15 per unless some team is super dumb
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:44 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Rondo's last few years will get him an assistant coaching position somewhere if he wants it. Maybe he can punch Chris Paul again as a coach while someone absorbs CP3's next three year anti jinx contract.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:44 PM - Khmrp: u can do 3 ways
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:44 PM - Cookie: I do too LTLakerFan.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:44 PM - ADKOBE: Ro
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:44 PM - 432J: remember troy hudson getting paid after he torched the lakers in 03?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:44 PM - Khmrp: its been done before separate transaction
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:44 PM - 432J: i bet tha'll be payne
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:45 PM - Khmrp: troy hudson that white guy pacer
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:45 PM - 432J: no, t-wolves
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:45 PM - acetabulum7: Rondo wasn’t going to save the lakers. But at least we ran real nba plays. Only being healthy would have saved us.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:45 PM - Khmrp: croshuer something like that
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:45 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Can’t wait for Dennis to be gone.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:46 PM - 432J: this is DS's last game with the lakers. no need to worry
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:46 PM - BangBoomPow: im pretty sure u cant sign-and-trade a player with multiple other players involved in the deal. it has to be a separate transaction
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:46 PM - ADKOBE: If AD and Lebron hurt, Rondo or Howard wouldn't of made a difference
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:46 PM - LakersKing82: Obviously AD is beyond hurt and I thinks it’s safe to say Lebron definitely not 100% either
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:46 PM - Cookie: Dennis did us a big favor by turning down his extension
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:46 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Don't want to see Schroeder here with even a half fair contract. He had his chance, to be the man.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:46 PM - BangBoomPow: if AD wasnt hurt the Lakers beat the Suns 4-1... it's the injuries that hurt the most
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:47 PM - Weezy: Crowder is an a**
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:47 PM - 432J: bron is absolutely not 100%. you can tell by the way he's playing this entire series. not like his usual self
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:47 PM - Cookie: Agreed Weezy
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:47 PM - Khmrp: send kuz/kcp for dlo lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:48 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Hate we’re gonna lose to Crowder and CP3. Two jacka**es
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:48 PM - LakersKing82: Cameron Payne, Crowder, and Bridges a bunch of fake tough guys, definitely glad to say they’ll never win a ring Lololol definitely not with the Suns
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:48 PM - Weezy: He’s absolutely not 100% and he’ll still get trashed for this loss anyway
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:48 PM - BangBoomPow: kuz/KCP will make 26 million next season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:48 PM - 432J: feels good knowing suns will lose next round
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:48 PM - LakersKing82: Khmrp by chance are you the same guy from Lakersground? Lolol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:49 PM - 432J: i'd bet good money payne won't be playing like iverson

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:49 PM - Khmrp: probably
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:49 PM - BangBoomPow: wow schroder has been awful tonight. they need to deport him back to germany
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:49 PM - Cookie: That’s not a flagrant
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:49 PM - Khmrp: i forgot what old laker forum was
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:49 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Suns capitalized off plenty of rest last year. They’ll be back to 8th seed status next year
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:49 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Agree
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:49 PM - LakersKing82: Khmrp I’m kingkobe from Lakersground Lololol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - LTLakerFan: Did KCP get a flagrant on that or a T?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - 432J: yeah, suns will not be this good next year
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - Cookie: How old is Jae?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Yes
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - Khmrp: kcp got t already
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - BangBoomPow: 30
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - 432J: crowder is 30
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - Khmrp: if its flagrant hes gone
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - BangBoomPow: but he acts like he is 14
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:50 PM - Cookie: He seems like he’s been around forever.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:51 PM - LakersKing82: Cookie Jae crowder is gonna be washed guaranteed next year. His tough guy antics aren’t going to work next season
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:51 PM - Cookie: What are they looking at for so long.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:51 PM - LTLakerFan: I think they’re upgrading to flagrant still looking
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:51 PM - 432J: send dudley out to throw some elbows
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:51 PM - Khmrp: crowder will last long, all he does is stand at corners shooting 3s
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:52 PM - Pioneer10: how long do you have to review this?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:52 PM - Cookie: He was going for the ball.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:52 PM - LakersKing82: Yeah but he ps exposing himself right now , we disable his game completely last season in the finals
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:53 PM - Cookie: Jae piss off.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:53 PM - BangBoomPow: can we get stephen curry next season plz
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:53 PM - Pioneer10: b******* flagrant come on
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:53 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:53 PM - LakersKing82: Teams aren’t gonna fall for his tricks anymore and his flopping is already exposed the refs know he’s doesnt play straight up defense a lot Crowder is gonna be on steady decline
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:53 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:54 PM - Khmrp: i think kuz is movable, doesn't pop have a hard on for him?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:54 PM - BangBoomPow: pop will never help the lakers
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:54 PM - BangBoomPow: so there is zero chance already
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:54 PM - Cookie: Pop liked Kuz during the Olympics

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:54 PM - BangBoomPow: he gave kawhi to toronto despite lakers having a much better package
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:54 PM - LakersKing82: Bang boom I’d obviously Steph but we all j ow that’s a pipe dream bro, I’m actually interested in Westbrook believe it or not lolololol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:54 PM - BangBoomPow: i'd take westbrook as well honestly
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:55 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Crowder has played for seven NBA teams (I just googled) I think that is why it seems like he has been around forever. If someone stays in one team the years blur.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:55 PM - Cookie: Westbrook shoots terrible
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:55 PM - BangBoomPow: but why would he take that low $
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:55 PM - KobeJeterKaep: Again, Gasol in with that little time is terrible coaching. Happened several times this series.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:55 PM - LakersKing82: Pop would never do a deal with the Lakers unless he gets to fleece us totally
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:55 PM - Cookie: If we want shooters Westbrick not it.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:55 PM - BangBoomPow: if we can get westbrook to replace schroder? cmon that's a no brainer...
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:55 PM - Weezy: Well, at least it’s not 30
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:55 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: I’d take a long look at Lonzo. He’s a good defender
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:56 PM - Weezy: Westbrook is awful to to pair with LeBron
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:56 PM - BangBoomPow: lonzo is restricted tho, pelicans will probably match
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:56 PM - Cookie: No. Isn’t Westbrook making 40 million or something
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:56 PM - LakersKing82: Westbrick definitely not it for shooting but if Dennis bolts I need to someone to generate plays that lead to easy buckets and Russ will give us that. Definitely a certified bucket getter to help Lebron and AD
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:56 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Good point BBP
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:57 PM - LaVarBallsDad: I'd like to know how you get to fit Westbrook in under the salary cap. Lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:57 PM - LA Bron: Anyone think we gotta shot to rally?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:57 PM - LTLakerFan: If Dennis bolts? Kick his a** out the door LOL
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:57 PM - BangBoomPow: i am not westbrook fan but look at what we got from schroder this season. westbrook would be a massive improvement. I am hoping for Derozan tho. hopefully he will take less to play for his fave team
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:57 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Our salary cap*
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:57 PM - LakersKing82: Yes Russ is due 44 million next season and he’s due for an extension lololol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:58 PM - BangBoomPow: maybe russ wants to compete for a title lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:58 PM - Cookie: Westbrook is a career 30% shooter from three and he takes a ton of them.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:58 PM - Pioneer10: At least Russ will go balls out every play: can't say that about Schroeder and Drummond
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:58 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Dennis dropped off when the expectations ramped up. He looked good on a Thunder bench with Chris Paul doing the heavy lifting. He fooled me. A good lesson.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: I think realistically THT or AC will be our starting PG next year.
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - Khmrp: bang, you say none of my idea is possible but then suggest Westbrook that's makimg 40m/yr lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - LakersKing82: Just want to say this live chat it awesome. I’m new to Lakersball and I’m a transplant from Lakersground where I gotta admit looks like windows 95 compared to LB’s format lolololol
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - Pioneer10: Charlotte's Graham who I woudl be targetting: it's crazy how much space Phoenix is giving Schroder
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - BangBoomPow: i didnt suggest westbrook lol someone brought him up
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - Cookie: You’re complaining about shooting BangBoomPow. Westbrook can’t shoot
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - BangBoomPow: i said if he wants to win a title maybe he takes less
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - LTLakerFan: Boom I thought you thought DeRosen might be open to coming home to ring chase?

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - BangBoomPow: okay but cookie who can we replace schroder with?
Jun 3, 2021 at 8:59 PM - BangBoomPow: u act like we have a ton of options. no one better than russ
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:00 PM - Weezy: I know, Schröder for Danny Green

 

Jun 3, 2021 9:00 PM - BangBoomPow: is this the worst season in term of injuries? unbelievable
Jun 3, 2021 9:00 PM - LakersKing82: I’d love Steph he would be the best obviously to team up with Lebron and AD. I just don’t see GSW giving him up ever though. The wizards might be looking to rebuild totally, I’d sign and trade Dennis , ship out Kuz for Russ.
Jun 3, 2021 9:00 PM - Khmrp: bang, u just gona ignore Westbrook salary?
Jun 3, 2021 9:00 PM - LTLakerFan: What happened to AC?
Jun 3, 2021 9:00 PM - BangBoomPow: khmrp u reading correctly?
Jun 3, 2021 9:01 PM - Cookie: Your exact words were I’d take Westbrook honestly.
Jun 3, 2021 9:01 PM - Khmrp: u can give up the entire roster minus ad/bron n still not match russ contract
Jun 3, 2021 9:01 PM - BangBoomPow: cookie i said i would take westbrook because the lakers dont have many options with their salary cap
Jun 3, 2021 9:01 PM - Pioneer10: try to reunite lowry and derozan . no money for them but that would be awesome
Jun 3, 2021 9:01 PM - BangBoomPow: u do realize they only have like $20 million to work with if schroder doesnt re-sign right?
Jun 3, 2021 9:01 PM - Cookie: What happened to AC?
Jun 3, 2021 9:01 PM - Khmrp: probably hurt too
Jun 3, 2021 9:01 PM - BangBoomPow: so name me a player who u think is better than russ for $20 million...
Jun 3, 2021 9:02 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Russ is locked up for 2 more years at over $40 million per.
Jun 3, 2021 9:02 PM - LTLakerFan: Westbrook is impossible WTF?
Jun 3, 2021 9:02 PM - LakersKing82: Yeah the numbers to bring Russ back home to LA is damn near impossible, definitely a pipe dream I spewed out.
Jun 3, 2021 9:02 PM - Pioneer10: derozan and Graham?
Jun 3, 2021 9:02 PM - Khmrp: seriously bang, u understand cap?
Jun 3, 2021 9:02 PM - Cookie: Westbrook is making 44 million. You can’t get him for Dennis
Jun 3, 2021 9:02 PM - BangBoomPow: khmrp i was talking about in general not to trade
Jun 3, 2021 9:02 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Last year of the Deng contract, next year. I may celebrate with a BBQ and burn a contract on the coals to say goodbye to him.
Jun 3, 2021 9:02 PM - BangBoomPow: someone said would u want westbrook
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - Khmrp: if just general id like dame but lets be real
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - LakersKing82: Only hope would be Washington doing a total rebuild and buying out Russ for next season, the following is a player option t sure how it would work tbh
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - Cookie: I’m definitely celebrating that Showtime
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Lol
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - BangBoomPow: derozan is a real chance honestly
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - BangBoomPow: his dad was a huge lakrs fan and passed away last season. maybe derozan tries to win one for him lol
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - LTLakerFan: There you go Showtime! We all can say by to him next year. S*** one more year!!!!!
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - LaVarBallsDad: DDR and Graham are probably more realistic
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - Cookie: Teams aren’t buying out a 44 million dollar player.
Jun 3, 2021 9:03 PM - Pioneer10: actually that would be awesome if you can get derozan to come home plus a shooter in Graham. resign ac and tht
Jun 3, 2021 9:04 PM - Khmrp: magic last parting gift
Jun 3, 2021 9:04 PM - Weezy: I was good with DeRozan last offseason, I’d be good with him. But yeah Pop won’t trade him here
Jun 3, 2021 9:04 PM - The Showtime Mamba: At least Russ and Beal get some fans on seats. Can't expect to have fans at the Wizards just to watch the other stars. It is nice to see some fight.

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - LakersKing82: I’d be happy without Demar! Find a way to bring back Dwight and Danny Green too. Danny’s defense is missed
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - Weezy: Or is he a free agent?
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - BangBoomPow: derozan is a free agent next season
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - Khmrp: truly genius amongst geniuses
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - LaVarBallsDad: He's an FA
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - LakersKing82: I meant I’d be happy DEMAR LOL
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - BangBoomPow: magic didnt sign deng lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - BangBoomPow: it was mitch
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - LaVarBallsDad: And he'd have to come cheap
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:04 PM - Khmrp: dd is a FA
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:05 PM - Weezy: Well if he came for the MLE I’d be for it
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:05 PM - Khmrp: magic stretched waivex him
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:05 PM - Khmrp: he didnt have to do it
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:05 PM - ElginTheGreat: Definitely worth seeing Derozan was willing to come here
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:05 PM - LakersKing82: I feel Jim Buss our a gun to Mitch’s head to force him to make the Deng and Mozgov deals
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:05 PM - Weezy: I don’t blame Magic for that, the way I remember it he had to do that to make room for LeBron and another star
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:05 PM - Pioneer10: Mitch was a greaet GM for so many years: that was so strange for him
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:05 PM - BangBoomPow: he tried to get the team more cap space cmon
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - BangBoomPow: he was trying to get a big 3 for the lakers
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - Weezy: PG just didn’t sign, so we ended up trading for one
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - Khmrp: no it was to make room for 2nd star when said 2nd star wasnt signed on yet
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Mitch was on some passive aggressive s*** when he finished off here. Signing some FU contracts. Remember Mitch don't feed those Gremlins' contracts after midnight.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - Khmrp: they had $ for brin easily
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - KobeJeterKaep: No desperation tonight. I get that Booker went off, but 14 points in the quarter. Dennis. Morris, Kuz. Just no heart.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - Khmrp: bron
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - Weezy: I blame PG for being too big a coward to put on purple and gold
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - LakersKing82: If we would of signed Demar back then when he was a raptor we might have never gotten Lebron and AD and mot important #17
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:06 PM - BangBoomPow: the point still stands, magic tried to clear some salary space. lakers won a title. if not for stretching deng, he would have been wasting a spot on the roster
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:07 PM - BangBoomPow: nothing u could do about deng at that point. better to get rid of him
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:07 PM - Khmrp: u didnt need to stretch waive it tho
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:07 PM - Khmrp: wouldve just expired
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:07 PM - BangBoomPow: okay what wud u suggest he do
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:07 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I can't see Buss or anybody forcing Mitch to sign Deng. I mean it wasn't the signing, it was the length and the money. It was like Mitch was online auctioning and starting bidding with himself.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:07 PM - Khmrp: wait till pg or whoever the 2nd star was to say yes 1st would've been smart
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:07 PM - BangBoomPow: ? and then the lakers have what cap for those two years?

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 9:07 PM - Weezy: Mitch was desperate
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:08 PM - LakersKing82: Suns fans celebrating winning their championship right now lolololol
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:08 PM - Khmrp: bang u clealry dont remember deng n cap space that yr
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:08 PM - Weezy: When Mozgov is your midnight signing... oof
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:08 PM - Cookie: Lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:08 PM - BangBoomPow: khmrp u dont make any sense lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:08 PM - Khmrp: deng agreed to a buy out, the buyout amt would expired that yr, magic waived that portion w/o securing the 2nd star
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:09 PM - Cookie: Yes to be excited about Moz and Deng was…….very difficult
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:09 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I will say, people weren't rushing to sign with us, and the (hey we used to be a good team) strategy was so stupid. I mean the NBA is a "what have you done for me lately" league.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:09 PM - LakersKing82: Mozgov killed us by forcing the trade of DLo but hey whatever we got Lebron and Kuz and most important #17 So life goes on
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:09 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: We’ve come a long way
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:10 PM - LaVarBallsDad: Yep.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:10 PM - BangBoomPow: lakers stretch and waived deng so they could have enough to sign a superstar
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:10 PM - Khmrp: bang u have no clue bout deng $
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:10 PM - BangBoomPow: lakers wanted the cap for next year. deng's contract wasn't expiring that year lol
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:10 PM - Weezy: It’s hard for me to look back on most moves with any anger, since we won it all last season. Except dumping Zu for nothing, that was just stupid
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:11 PM - Khmrp: it was expiring after bron yr 1
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:11 PM - LakersKing82: I really wanted chris Paul I though he would of been perfect next to a Lebron and AD but after this series and it looks like he wants to sign and extension with Phoenix........ bye Felicia
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:11 PM - Cookie: We won #17. #18 will have to wait till next year.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:11 PM - BangBoomPow: no it wasnt khmrp
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:11 PM - Khmrp: magic stretched the buyout portion in james yr 1 expecing pg to sign, clear now?
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:11 PM - BangBoomPow: he was signed up to 2020
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:11 PM - Khmrp: go back n do yr research bang
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:11 PM - BangBoomPow: lol u are clueless bro
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:11 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I feel like this will be one of those games where Lebron fakes an injury so he can get off court before the end. I mean I know he has plenty of non-fake injuries.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:12 PM - LakersKing82: Preach on Cookie! Lebron and AD fully rested and healthy!!! We still a problem! Next season should be fire!!!!!!!!
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:12 PM - Weezy: You guys realize a simple google search can solve this...
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:12 PM - Cookie: Nice Dennis. More of that before you no longer wear our colors.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:13 PM - The Showtime Mamba: If we get it down to ten.... Ok, so we won't get it down to ten, but if we did it will probably trampoline to thirty.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:13 PM - Cookie: Don’t call people names guys.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:13 PM - Khmrp: deng took a buyout bang, do some googling
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:13 PM - Weezy: Man where has this been, great cut and pass by KCP and Marc
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:13 PM - Cookie: KCP getting more active
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:13 PM - Weezy: Lol Booker didn’t get the Harden call finally
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:14 PM - Cookie: My dislike of Booker grows each game and it was already high.

 

Jun 3, 2021 at 9:14 PM - Weezy: Awesome pass by Marc
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:14 PM - Cookie: Nice pass
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:14 PM - Weezy: Haha Marc carving them up
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:14 PM - BangBoomPow: yes he agreed to a buyout for $7.5 million off. he was due $18 million per year for two more years. Lakers wanted that money to sign a third star so they stretched him. that was when Kawhi, Klay, Kyrie, Butler, etc., were free agents so Lakers wanted to be active....
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:15 PM - Cookie: Does Phx just get to hold us?
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:15 PM - Weezy: Weak a** call ref
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:15 PM - LakersKing82: I really don’t got hate for Book, he’s just doing what his mentor Kobe though him. Crowder can burn in H3!! tho lolololol
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:15 PM - BangBoomPow: deng would still be on the roster last year taking up $18 million. what moves could the lakers make with that last season to win a title?
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:16 PM - Cookie: I don’t like Booker because he’s dirty.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:16 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I don't hate Booker, but he is another star without an aura. Like George Paul, I mean AD isn't exactly personality central. We have boring stars now or petulant crazy stars.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:16 PM - Weezy: We don’t like Booker because he’s a flopping whiner with an entitled attitude and he cries if you double team him
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:16 PM - Cookie: That too Weezy
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:16 PM - BangBoomPow: u are just jealous he is dating kendall jenner
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:16 PM - Weezy: Gross
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:16 PM - Cookie: Yuck
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:17 PM - Khmrp: bang just go do yr research
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:17 PM - Khmrp: dont know how many times i gota say deng took a BUYOUT
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:17 PM - Cookie: Marc was just standing there.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:17 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: Ayton hurt.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:17 PM - The Showtime Mamba: I am enjoying Luka playing. I mean he is too big for the small, too good a passer for the D, too good a shooter to leave open. I mean when he is rolling it is fun.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:18 PM - Weezy: Luka is ridiculous
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:18 PM - Khmrp: yea luka gm is nice
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:18 PM - The Showtime Mamba: It is just hard because I can only support and really cheer for the Lakers in a meaningful way but it is still brilliant basketball.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:18 PM - LakersKing82: bang boom showing his age with that Kendall comment lolololol she’s like 5 out of 10. Body is comparable to a sheet of paper lolololololololol
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:18 PM - Khmrp: nothing really phase him anymore
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:18 PM - Weezy: He’s playing like Curry, Harden and like Dirk in one body
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:18 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Like how I enjoyed Ginobli or McGrady etc, but just really seems fresh and exciting.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:18 PM - CarolinaLakerFan: AC out with bad ankle
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:19 PM - Cookie: I didn’t even see AC hurt himself.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:19 PM - LakersKing82: Luka, JA, Tatum, Brandon Ingram, and Zion is the future!!!!!
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:19 PM - BangBoomPow: https://bleacherreport.com/articles...buyout-leaves-la-with-38m-in-salary-cap-space
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:20 PM - Cookie: Needs to strengthen his lower body.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:20 PM - LTLakerFan: Gasol’s left leg outside circle but right leg in the air? It wasn’t in the circle though.
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:20 PM - BangBoomPow: just read this khmrp... it'll explain why the lakers did it. and it was a no-brainer
Jun 3, 2021 at 9:20 PM - The Showtime Mamba: Kardashians (and associated family) are the definition of those women you may find attractive but are glad you are not dating or more specifically starting a family with.
