    Giannis hitting 3's is a problem if he is also allowed to go to the hole with obstructions. He will be unstoppable.

    Now that is scary. We still need to see it in the playoffs but it’s hard to see anyone beating them if he shoots like that.

    Putting a center on LeBron might be something that he'll see more often. He seems too slow to get around them or reticent to get fouled and he can't shoot. Most teams don't have the team defense of the Bucks, but the Lakers don't seem to run any plays, anyway.

    Man I can’t stand Wes Mathews. One of the most annoying players in history

    Lebron looks like he’s in the “we’re about to lose...ima just pass it now” mode

    Chill, Tillman is a businessman extraordinaire, he'll funnel all the money he saved not paying luxury tax and make a one time payment mid-April to an offshore account initialized SF, TB, AS

    Lakers have no spacing. Bucks are packing the paint heavy. I don’t think having a center on him is a good idea unless you still have giannis lurking

    Didn't get to watch the game. Did LeBron play a lot with the 2nd unit? He's -15 from the field while the rest of the starters have a positive +/-

    AD 17 FTs. If it was Harden everyone would be crying

    I don’t want him anywhere near the rockets. He thinks he is better than he is and jacks up some terrible shots.

    and nah not really wesley knows exactly why hes on the floor. and it definitely shows. don't know what terrible shots you saw but he takes more often than not open looks which he is supposed to

    onto the real game.

    Yea except Westbrook is going to the hall of fame. You must not have watched Wes Matthews much. I live in Dallas and saw plenty of him on the mavs. Awful player.

    I saw them do it with Giannis on the bench. I get that the Bucks defend well with and without Giannis, but the Lakers make it easy by not running any real plays.

    I think teams need to challenge LeBron more now and make him beat them. He still wants everything to go through him, let him prove that he still has it. He'll win more times then not, but not as much as he used to.

    He needs to consider some load management, but he's so jelly of Kawai and Giannis that he'll do anything to differentiate himself from them. Including playing too much for his mileage and being a try hard with assists.

    I agree with you, @YOLO and @icewill36. Wes Mathews is annoying and would be perfect as a Rocket.
