    Kyle Kuzma's performance. Lakers have a 100% win rate when Kyle Kuzma scores a career high.

    That’s really dumb to say. Sure everyone knows it but be easy about it. Now if something were to happen where we don’t upset them this will be a running joke.

    More or less cringey than when he said last year "No one will want to face us in the playoffs." :D:rolleyes:

    I just wish they would become obsessed with winning a game again.

    When you see how the Warriors play without Curry and compare that to how we play without Paul, it really shows you how large the gap is between us and them.

    Eh, as bulletin board material it's probably well below Capela's "We expect to beat them" statement (which wasn't intended to be bravado but you know Draymond Green is saving it up anyway).

    We cant even beat them in regular season when they are down one snake and we having better defense sans harden .
    How can we even think of beating them when it matters the most in June?
    Morey getting more obsessed by the day.
    Gsw are spitting on us and thinking we are just another challenger to their throne :confused:o_O:oops:

    why would they be obsessed with beating us or anyone else? They’re on top. That article headline makes no sense.

    We already beat them in the regular season. On the road. With both teams at full strength. And I don’t think our defense “gets better” enough sans Harden to compensate for the dip on offense. Not even close.

    We can think about beating them because the Rockets are figuring out how to integrate Chris Paul into the system, the roster has been riddled with injuries. Yet, the Rockets are still the 2-seed in the west, only a couple games out of 1st, and have been 1st for the majority of the season. I’d say we have a shot. Also, that Gerald Green pickup seems to be paying off.
