2025 1st Round: (3) LA Lakers Vs. (6) Minnesota Timberwolves

Lakers have Luka and Bron, but they can’t be taken seriously as a legitimate threat when they have zero big men and a trash bench

Jaxon Hayes is the most token starter of all-time…he has yet to play even 10 minutes in any of the games so far

Idk why their podcast coach even bothers putting him out there to start the game when he knows he’s not going to play him

Luka is also a liability on D, and u got Austin Reaves out there with him as well along with no backline defense

 

Luka and Reaves defensive awareness is awful.

 

Good summary of the Lakers. They may as well start DFS and stop the Jaxson Hayes nonsense.

They lost today despite all of their top 4 players delivering the goods on offense and taking a 10-point lead into the 4th quarter.

Not sure why LeBron disappeared on offense during what seemed like the entire 4th quarter. That was kinda weird.

 

Luka plays defense like he always on 5 fouls.

 

Funny, I thought it was just sheer coincidence that the Lakers lead evaporated in the second half when the refs stopped gifting LeBron a parade to the free throw line.

 

haha f’n leroids weiner sucking bich

maybe he fires you this offseason now too

 

Such a petty loser.

 

Lakers gifted Luka and about to be out as the 3rd seed lmao

 

I mean we are about to be out as the 2nd seed. Sometimes your team just ***** the bed due to being too young or too old of age. Fecal incontinence is no joke.

 

NBA is rigged for Timberwolves.

 

NBA Darlings Minnesota OKC and Cleveland

 

Hey I am just trying to feel better

 

'Minnesota, Oklahoma City and Cleveland represent an AXIS OF EVIL...'

 

could this year finally be the changing of the guard? please let it be. bye bye bron, dray and stephy.

 

Sure but we don't have that A1 superstar. If the Rockets had they'd be up right now against GSW.

 

Lakers in 7.

The NBA can only set it up for teams, it ain't the league's fault when their chosen ones come up short in the fourth.

 

I treat those guys like horror movie monsters, they ain't dead until they're dead, ded. The Wolves are the more talented team, they are better coached, and they play better together. The league will still do everything it can to set it up for the Lakers. They just haven't closed out their opponents in the playoffs. For the past few seasons, the Nuggets have had the same advantages, the league set it up for the ye Lakers by keeping them ahead, but they could not close out. So far, they haven't been able to close out the Wolves either.

EDIT: I'm worried about an injury or suspension for the next game. They almost got Edwards in this game with LeBron diving at his knees.
