League. Theyre a backwards flawed ref dependent team. I was really hoping we'd get the chance to punch them out.
Portland is tough because they have quick guards, great shooters and a skilled big, which are all our weaknesses.
AD had a bad game for sure, a lot of misses at the rim but don't forget that he swept Dame & the Blazers 2 yrs ago with the lesser talented Pelicans squad, the Lakers aren't winning without him dominating this series.
Lakers are fools gold. All their talent is at F/C in a guard driven league. LeBron can’t win without a dominant playmaking guard next to him and Wade and Irving aren’t walking through that door. For all the crap Houston is taking about small ball it’s getting more and more obvious they are right. The only legitimate threat to Houston is LAC. One of those two teams will win it all.
Even Hollywood Laker fans will see right through his stat-padding in losses. It honestly looked like he was hurt, though, or just old, and they were trying to hide him by making him the passer instead of the playmaker. A lot of movement from the Lakers with LeBron picking and choosing who to pass to.
Welcome to the Western Conference LeBron. No easy series over here. No bobcats or Hawks over here pleighboi.
Nope with Nurkic. Lillard absolutely shat himself that series & was outplayed by Jrue Holiday. AD was absolutely bonkers avg like 34 pts
if Harden ever dropped 28 points on 8-24 shooting while scoring just 2 points in the 4th as he lost game 1 to an 8th seed, the amount of ridicule would be off the charts Since many in the media and so many “analysts” love to claim that AD is a better player, will we see that same energy for Davis or nah?
WTH did the announcers keep talking about the Lakers and their 3 seven foot players? McGee's the only 7 footer on that team. Davis is not 7 foot like they kept saying. He's 6'10. I don't know who the 3rd seven footer was supposed to be.....LOL. Now Portland, they have two 7 footers in Nurkic and Whiteside. I smell technicals and possible ejections coming in this series with all the grabbing, shoving, and pushing going on, especially with Howard. Everytime I see Melo I shake my head on why we let him go when he cost us barely over 2 million. We don't even play Chandler, and honestly Melo has been shooting better from the arc than most of our forwards this year who we signed for more money.
I'm rooting for the Lakers based on 5 factors 1. RIP Kobe Bean Bryant 2. Lebron is my fave non-Rocket player 3. Media darling Lillard is a baby back flopping b**** with a ginormous ego & is not in Harden's league 4. Melo 5. Lakers are a much better match-up for us, Blazers are not
