Why did the lakers just win 5 straight..


Can't they lose their pick to the 6ers if it's 4th or later
 
I'd rather watch the Lakers win 15 of their last 20 games than tank for 62 games while HOPING and PRAYING they get a top 3 pick.

Purposeful tanking is straight up loser mentality and because the Lakers did it for 97% of the season, don't be shocked once they donate that pick to Philly.

The only buffoons are the fans who support the tank-a-thon.

Good read on TPT by Brandon Jennings...

TBT: It’s the summer of ’07, just a few months before my senior year at Oak Hill Academy. I’m the No. 1 high school player in the country — and I know it, too, if you know what I mean. I’m 17, doing whatever I want on the court, and no one can tell me nothin’.

Around that time, Reebok is holding their RBKU camp in Philly. It’s an event they have every year, where the best high school players in the country all come up and scrimmage against each other. (Basically it’s just a big audition for the scouts and the shoe companies.) And of course I’m there.

My team has a backcourt of me and Isaiah Thomas (yeah, that one) — and we’re pretty much just running ****. The other team, they’ve got some guys, no doubt. It’s basically an All-Star game, you know — everyone’s got some guys. But at the point? Man, they’ve got this super-skinny kid, this junior nobody. Like … I don’t even know his name. Don’t really care, either. I think he’s from Raleigh? Could be from wherever. That’s just how it was for me that summer. I’m feeling myself, and I know that no other point at that camp can touch me. Especially not some kid I don’t know, from I-don’t-know-where.

Anyway, at some point during one of the scrimmages, I catch an open lane in full stride and I’m flying. I take a quick dribble, then another, past this no-name point of theirs — and then I dunk that **** SO HARD.

Not even on him — I’m too fast to dunk it on him. I just dunk it by him. And as I land, and turn around to get back on defense, all hyped up, this no-name kid decides he’s gonna cross my path. Big mistake. I give him a bump in the chest — serious bump — and scream right in his face, too.

All of this.

You still mad? I told you about the Magic announcement days before it happened. You forgot?

Also comical winning 26 of 82 games is a "winning mentality" while winning 23 of 82 is a "losing mentality".

still perpetrating like he got insider info, like everyone and their mama didn't know Magic was brought in specifically to oust Jim and Mitch.

Read bruh: had the Lakers won 15 of their last 20 games, that would've amounted to a season win total of a lot more than 26 games. And in case you didn't know, if a young team such as this Lakers group would have gone 15-5 in their last 20, it would have begun to foster a "winning mentality."

Don't be mad when the summer comes and you're on your couch crying about the Sixers owning that #5 pick.

He's more Hornswaggle than The Undertaker. Dude has zero credibility.

Won't be crying at all, I already said I hope they lose the pick out of the result of sheer stupidity. And then be forced to lose on purpose AGAIN next season. This could have ended all of that but the coach is a buffoon.

My End-of-Season Awards...

MVP - Westbrook

COY - Snyder

ROY - Embiid

6th Man - Lou Williams

MIP - Giannis A.

Shaqtin-a-fool highlight of the year - Westbrook
 
Rockets-Thunder gonna be the most exciting series of the first round in the West, can't wait for that one.

Jazz-Clippers should go 7, if George Hill and Favors stay healthy and most importantly, show up.

I want to see BOS make it all the way to the Finals and somehow end up with Lonzo Ball with the Nets' pick, so that Magic gets so irritated he goes all out this summer to make major moves and drastically improve the Lakers roster via trade, while LeBron James contemplates an opt-out.
