Jeezus what a full of himself with a horrible take that he thinks is funny .... MORON. The replays certainly did look nasty. He needs one of those upside HIS dome.
So the Lakers, Nuggets and Miami all make it back to the CF's 2.5 years after the bubble. It's almost like these teams needed 2 years to recover from the idiotic 2 month turnaround the NBA scheduled after
With an official apology to Schroder and the Lakers And that ref should never work a Lakers game again
I think we need to prepare ourselves for a frustrating series due to officiating. I’m not saying if we lose it’ll be because of the refs. I’m saying that even if both teams play well, there will be enormous advantages given to one team or another based on how jokic and AD/Lebron are officiated. One game, a guy will get a ton of fts and the other guy will be in foul trouble. Than the opposite.
yeah, i fear AD foul trouble will be a story in this one, and it will be inconsistent across games, as you said.
I think there will absolutely be at least one game won for each team because of AD and Joker foul trouble. If there's more than that, we're in trouble because of how our duo gets officiated in general.
Our PGs are an embarrassment to the offensive side of the ball. They can't play together. Boxing out helps.
Shouldn’t have started small. Guards were a no show the first half. We shot ourself in the foot repeatedly but still had a shot at the end. sucks to lose but we can bounce back from that.
It’s like the lakers (players and staff) didn’t do their homework? It’s like they didn’t know the personnel out on the floor for both teams? Very unprepared. Had the focus and determination and common-sense adjustments been there from the onset, we could have had this game without the need to claw back. I cannot stand how we must lose or be down 21 points in order to get our **** together. You get paid tens of millions of dollars to do this for a living, so of course the expectations are high, especially when you’re the Lakers and you’re in the final 4. Starting Dennis? Against one of the biggest frontcourts in the league? Does Coach Ham think this is GSW or something? This team is so frustrating. How about some attention to detail? You had 3 days off… Just night and day of halves. I wish our Lakers just jumped on them and took this a bit more seriously. ALSO, does LeBron ALWAYS have to freaking shoot 1/2 from the FT line? You make over 40 mill per year and are in your 18th season or whatever. How can you CONSISTENTLY MISS FTs as a professional? Preseason, reg season, postseason…. Inexcusable. LeBron’s stupid jack 3 miss did us in. Then to top it off, he freakin quits on the play after his turnover with less than 20 secs to go. Just a frustrating *** team to watch.
THe difference in teh game was that stupid Jokic prayer to end the quarter and the Murray prayer and that was one of the biggest prayer shots I've ever seen go in. Take those away and Denver folds sigh
ham's stupid small ball lineup cost them the game from the beginning. better not pull that s*** again next game
WMC: ME! I had to work til the start of the 3rd qtr. When i came home we made our run. WMC 2: My wife! She came down stairs with 1 min left in the game and ruined our momentum. Now, you may think I didn't cost us but the game I didn't watch in the GS series was the game 2 blowout and most of game 5. Yes, I am taking blame.
Yes those shots and a whole bunch of others they hit. They shot TOO well. No awareness either from the refs that the entire world other than Denver wants Lakers vs C Bags in the finals.
lol, yeah, stuff happened at home and i missed most of the game, but when i turned it on, the nuggets scored on literally every possession for a long stretch, so i turned it off. then we apparently came back. so i did my part!
