The Official NBA Thread: Celtics Lead 2-0 in the NBA Finals | Porzingis is Day to Day

Coach JJ weighing in

 

[noblekane]

Anthony Davis was supposed to be the guy.

he was supposed to be the guy since he got here

4 years later he still aint that guy

got a 38 year old putting the team on his back til his feet are no more while that ***** plays like deandre ayton

 

[sohi 23]

AD better than Giannis?!?

Giannis doesn’t get to be considered as a “big” and get to play next to a center.

Maybe If AD had a center next to him, but I don’t think it’s a fair comparison rn.

 

[millzszn93]

The most calmest sweep lol

It’s the playoffs. Solely relying on home court to win games is a losers mentality. It’s time to ball no matter what.

I would rather have the season end on a austin 3
Tristan really outshined AD today

I know nobody is trying to hear this rn but I’m extremely proud of this lakers squad.

Basically been playing backs against the wall ball for 3 months straight. Ad and bron both need off-season surgery but they gutted it out for a chance at a ring. I’m truly appreciative.

This team could’ve packed it up months/weeks ago and nobody would’ve batted an eye. This team brought me a lot of joy these last 3 months. Can’t wait to watch them with a full season/offseason under their belt.

It was an excellent season. Thank you to the Lakers, all the laker fans on nt and all the laker haters here too. Y’all make everything more fun and enjoyable.

i still give Pelinka hella credit for salvaging this season and turning piss water into wine at the trade deadline. a masterclass in taking a fringe playoff into a possible contender.

that said, what's it gonna look like for LA next year now that hella players are free agents?

Mike Malone is about to go off.

I’m here for it.

 

[Blue Mamba]

Lakers were starting to get Cavs Tristan Thompson then sat him the rest of the game

 

[Zo gif]

Need Celtics to lose by 40 to make me feel better

 

[BennyIll22]

I don't know if Malone can sell to the team that they are the underdogs against the Heat lol

aepps20 This is the only team I believe you honestly root for, so congrats.

 

[ill steelo]

Jokic picked up #5 and Lakers scored every single time they went high pick & roll and went quick.

Then they didn’t go quick on that last full possession You never run the clock down when you’re losing

we just won the series and everyone talking about tristan thompson giving good minutes.

 

[nelson999]

Bruh you are SACRAMENTO KINGS FAN

You picked a team that successful before you were born, cool. what an accomplishment.

Probably not even from LA. Or even worse maybe just a LeBron sack rider

 

[Brownstone]

I don't know if Malone can sell to the team that they are the underdogs against the Heat lol

They have been the best team since the playoffs started, I would tell the team straight up, we gotta show up and take care of business. None of this fake motivation trickery needed.

 

[moe200069]

and draymond picked lakers in 6

wth this man really is MLGA

Interested in seeing how Spo gameplans for Jokic.

You know the Lakers didn’t have home court advantage all three series right? Lol

Probably bring back AR on big $
Bring back Rui on more money than he probably deserves
Sign Dlo to something cheap(er than what he thought)

They have options on Beasley and I think Bamba.
They can keep those 3 contracts (Dlo, Bamba and Beasley) for trade bait while holding onto Reaves & Rui if they want.

Reaves has upped his value so much the Lakers can lowkey go star hunting again if they wanted. I doubt that happens tho. Trading everyone for dame or Kyrie would be dumb as hell.

erik spo the greatest coach since phil jackson
jimmy butler the next mj
he's going to find a way
