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

[CP1708]

I know it's not related, at all.....but.....

2021, up 2-1, at home game 4, dominating early
2023, up 2-1, at home game 4, dominating early

Would really like to make the 2023 result diff than 2021.

AD a unicorn defensively but he not who i thought i was on offense man

 

[moonman818]

If AD turns it on at all we still winning by 10

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Ham falling victim to the "it's the playoffs, I gotta shorten my rotation" mentality LOL

What he fails to realize is that this team has never even won a single playoff series together, unlike his Bucks of 2021-22 therefore he has to take advantage of his depth, especially when his team goes on dry spells.

When you need that jolt, that energizer, use Wenyen or Lonnie for crying out loud

[thasoleful1]

Here we go with the AD is hurt excuses f man

 

[darthska]

#PlayoffRui

 

[pmatic]

Get a ******* big to defend the rim.

 

[MVP]

AD just soft man, no way around it.

 

[thasoleful1]

Welp here we go

 

[maxelite]

Gotta respect Ja's game. He is relentless.


Big 4q from AD incoming.

 

[DLF]

Ad clearly hurt.

******* sorry *** fast break play man.

 

[essential1]

Down 2 and the starters have been collectively bad..

Whole 3rd quarter was officiated confusingly.

 

[CP1708]

Well......on the bright side, AD should be rested for this 4th. We need a big Q from him.

 

[frink85]

AR shot so smooth

 

[thasoleful1]

Get a big in there already

 

[frink85]

Stop driving into 3 guys in the paint

 

[pmatic]

I applaud AR's fearlessness but he's not getting past Triple J. He's got to kick it out or shoot a floater.

 

[IslandBornRedNose]

Second chance points killing us

 

[mrdieselfuel09]

Going to be second chance points that’s going to hurt the Lkers

 

[essential1]

Grizzles are not even playing well.

Lakers are being killed inside. No way around it.

 

[maxelite]

AD needs to be put in for the rest of the game.

 

[darthska]

Objectively, I don't think the refs are favoring one side or the other. My overall opinion of the refs is that they are really letting them play. My worry is that as the series continues, the refs will change that 'let them play' dynamic, with MEM & Ja getting heeeeella calls to take it to 7 in MEM.

Fake news. Refs bogus af right now.
