**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

[trynafeelmink]

Do they still do these segments?? i remember thinking they were so interesting

 

[essential1]

Jrue Holiday out here playing like Russell Westbrook

 

[pmatic]

Pelicans lose.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

I think 12-3 is highly possible, finishing 45-37.

 

[tupac003]

Bucks gave the game away.

 

[essential1]

Bucks gave the game away.

Jrue Holiday on his own.

But yes.

Bucks had the following win probabilities…
98.3% at 2:43
97.0% at 1:28
89.8% at 31 seconds

 

[trynafeelmink]

Goddamn Bucks man

 

[denni5themenace]

jrue threw

 

[pmatic]

Go Kings.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Austin Reaves on DLo

Curry-esque?

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Kyrie definitely outta Dallas this summer. I kinda wanna keep this team just as is.

 

[sohi 23]

bucks sold but you gotta tip your cap to curry. Hopefully their road struggles continues.

We’ll have to settle for the 3 way tie for the 7th seed after the win tomorrow.

Saturday’s Rooting Interests:
Knicks over Clippers in LA
Hornets over Jazz in Charlotte
Grizzles over Mavs in Memphis
Bucks over Warriors in GS
Thunder over Pelicans in NO
Kings over Suns in PHX

Not sure if the emojis popped up by 3-3 in rooting interests on Saturday.

Kyrie definitely outta Dallas this summer. I kinda wanna keep this team just as is.

Anybody who is advocating for Kyrie at the expense of what could be built off of the team isn’t serious.

Not even LeBron at this point would sell it for Kyrie

 

[htg designs]

Kyrie is inifinty times better than Brick. But that top heavy experiment shouldve taught Bron something. That **** aint sustainable.

Kyrie is inifinty times better than Brick. But that top heavy experiment ahouldve taught Bron something. That **** aint sustainable.

Also if Luka/Kyrie don’t work. Him paired with a top 10 player.
Trying to pair him with LeBron and AD will be worse.

Mavs don’t even really have a bad supporting cast either. Probably missing a guy or two, but it’s not the worst supporting cast either. 3-8 since 2/11/23

 

[essential1]

Sunday’s rooting interests:
-Lakers over the Knicks in LA. NYK on a B2B. No Brunson most likely.
-Spurs over Thunder in SA. Thunder on a B2B.
-Blazers over Pelicans in NO. Pelicans on a B2B.

45-37 would be ******* insane considering the **** show start lol

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

I'm convinced that when Rob was on the phone with Ainge during the trade negotiations, Kobe took part in the conference calls and got in Danny's head. No way Pelinka and esp Rambis could've done it on their own

 

[reconic supreme]

Contain Quickly and RJ.

Don't lose the hustle battle with Josh and do your best to get in Julius Randle's head. Get him to commit mistakes.

 

[nermindee]

I hope Ham better have something better than taking AD out when it comes to dealing with the double team. AD needs to see the double team sooner and make quicker decisions. The longer he holds the ball, the more the defense can load up and squeeze them

 

[trynafeelmink]

THT had himself a night yesterday .... Oldest lookin TWENTY TWO in history tho

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

THT . Shame how Utah has been limiting his minutes all year in order to tank. He should have a good run down this last stretch

Trade for Ainge was about sticking it to the Timberwolves as much as possible.
Timberwolves were dumb enough to go back to Ainge for round 2, thinking that they needed to double and triple down on the Gobert trade.

From there, it just fell in Rob’s lap.

 

[pmatic]

Always thought THT's best way to maximize himself was at point guard. Sink or swim time now.
