The Lakers balling....

 

[DJ]

Lakers fans have been telling y'all that for decades.

This.

 

[DJ]

Suns getting their ass handed to them by the Lakers without Bron, Kuz, or Dennis lol

Lakers going to make quick work of them in round 1.

AD killing it.

 

[DJ]

The Lakers team defense is on point tonight.

The T wolves are hammering Orlando. Detroit just has to lose out for the 2

they are tied with 4 teams with 21 wins........Houston of course is #1......but Detroit, OKC, Clev, Orlando would all share the odds at #2 i guess if they all lose out.

PLEASE lose out CLe.

 

[DJ]

Caruso been playing well the last 2 games....

 

[DJ]

I have never encouraged my team to lose games.....that's a sad state of affairs......LOL.

For a big guy, AD hits the floor far too frequently

 

[DJ]

AD with 42 points, 12 rebounds, 5 asissts, 3 blocks and 3 steals.....beast mode

Detroit has one fewer win than the rest

 

[tlance]

Eh

They tried minus flipping that 1st round pick they got for Kyrie. I doubt most saw that Isiah was going to be THAT bad. But sure it was basically a bunch of spare parts to try and make a run.

That first round pick could've netted them a better asset. But that was also their first step at rebuild if Lebron left. Re- signing Love was dumb AF not that that has anything to do with our current discussion

That was the 1 piece they had to include to land any type of difference maker though. And they shouldn’t have made that first step until LeBron was officially gone. An eye toward the future essentially assured that he had to leave.

And resigning Love has a lot to do with it. It proves that Cleveland was not intentionally tanking.

The Pistons are really bad.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

The Pistons are really bad.

They're focusing on the young bucks. I'm actually happy with those guys development at this point. They absolutely suck though

Add a top 3 player and they'll have something to build around.

Good win for the Lakers last night. Bad loss for the Celtics last night.

Lakers are probably 50/50 to avoid the play in game at this point. The Celtics must win tomorrow against the Heat. If they do that they have a decent chance of avoiding the play-in game.

Lakers are damn near a lock for the play in game. Losing the tiebreaker vs Portland and Dallas sealed their fate imo. As for Boston/Miami, i think even if they win they end up in the play in game. I think both them and Miami will go 2-1 in their final 3

The Heat would benefit from the Sixers clinching before their game this week. They need a win at Indiana on Tuesday plus one Nets loss and one Bucks loss before Thursday. Bucks have Spurs and Magic before Thursday. Nets have the Bulls and Spurs.

I'm really surprised he's not trying to badmouth your Lakers right now since that dumbbell said LeBron's legacy is ruined because he couldn't get an injured Lakers squad to the playoffs two seasons ago.

I got my 2nd vaccine today.

I am pretty sure you are joking.

That would take the Lakers way over the cap and unbalance the trade first off.

Secondly that is still a big hell no.

You can’t package players like Schroeder and Kuzma to return a star player unless you are also giving major draft assets that the Lakers don’t have.

You simply don't have the foresight to see that Kuzma suddenly elevates his game to elite during this year's finals. Don't worry, all will see soon enough.....

Stevens is overrated as a coach

So is the Celtics roster.
