Whenever they meet in the playoffs should be epic

That’s off LeBron. LeBron was trying too hard to make a career highlight right there. What a dumb move

Entire possession made no sense. Ton of time go attack the basket ASAP

I mean he kinda had to go for a 3. Going for a quick with less than 5 is losing basketball

Another good game. These are the best teams in the West

I know but he dribbled himself into a corner and then tried to be a hero. Danny Green has to take that. LeBron has been bricking threes all game. LeBron thinks he’s actually a good shooter and he’s not.

If the nba regular season was this competitive every night it would be much more watchable.

Lebron was way too passive in those final 3 to 5 minutes. Several possessions he had a drive and would pass it up. Other times he didn't even touch the ball. Then he stupidly wasted a ridiculous amount of time on that 2nd to last play before Beverley stripped him. He and the Lakers played really poorly closing out that game

I mean it is. If you have league pass, there's competitive games nightly

Most nights have a few games like this, it's just sometimes Hawks vs Bulls or some shit

Obviously you watch way more than me but I rarely see the defensive effort we saw in this gm. Guys not getting back on defense etc

Shout out to the King of LA.

Clippers couldn't have pulled this off without you.

Good game, Lakers Nation.

Not sure why you went away from Kuz.

But, he and Mcgee were KILLING US.

You took away Lou.

You contained our bench.

Sadly, LeBron and Rondo were awful.

The Rockets might have something to say about that.

I think the Clippers are a terrible matchup for the Lakers.
With Kawhi and George — they can make life extremely difficult on Lebron. And they just have so much depth.

Gotta give PG some credit for that.

He did a nice job on Bron and he played hot potato with the ball every time Kawhi was within 5 feet of him.

I'm dead that they missed that obvious travel on LeBron.

Personally — I think the team Lebron dreads having to face is the Clippers. With George and Kawhi — it gives the Clips two all-NBA defenders in their prime. When you add in Beverly, he just gets no break.

Clippers are going to be extremely tough to beat in a 7 game series with their depth and talent.

Dude, come on, I know it's one game but they sucked today vs the shitty Ws

And they can't beat playoff Kawhi or playoff LeBron seven games. Harden is just not a winner.
