Series Thread: 1st Round: 3) LA Lakers vs 6) Minnesota T-Wolves

[thunderc]

We showed after the Luka trade that they are capable of playing defense.....surprised most analysts that they were as good as they were.

They better bring the offense 4 times against this team

Here we go round 2

Hey Laker fans, where are you? You quit already? You are winning.

Minnesota looks like a team happy to win 1 on the road

Exactly what I was thinking

They over helped on Ant in game one.

Yep. Play 1-on-1 and if you do help gotta have better rotations. Let Ant score 50, he wom’t win by himself unless the Lakers offense is awful again.

The Cavs played him that way. He scored 50, Cavs won by 30.

Lakers playing some solid D early

JJ should win this challenge rather easily

2 bench players with 3 fouls in their 8 minutes played is odd

Bill Simmons predicted this type of game on Sunday night

It might be one of the series where every game is a blowout except the elimination game

Not when you're playing against the Lakers it isn't.

Didn’t know Rudy had that in his bag

 

[bksballer89]

Only down 15. Try to cut it down to 6-8 pts by end of 3rd

 

[HurricaneDij39]

Vando/Hayes have combined for 11 minutes in the first half... When the Lakers go small like that Minnesota needs to counter w/ Naz Reid, who has only played 8 minutes (unless I'm missing something and he's hurt)...

Ok Ant

Ant is alive

 

[Jordan23]

Luka gonna carry lakers to an easy game 2 win

 

[bksballer89]

Coaches 3-3 tonight on challenges.

These refs are absolute shit, but at least they are equal opportunity shit.
