Now that we got Playoff Rondo, we sure to get Playoff Dwight against the Clips

 

[MVP]

Gotta give it up to Vogel, he's been making great game to game and in game adjustments. Javele and Dwert served their purpose keeping AD fresh for the playoffs to play the 5 but their services are no longer needed unless it's a blowout.

Lakers may not need the services of Javale and Dwight against the Smurfs but it'd be crazy to think you not gonna need them two against the Clippers

Duplicate post my bad

I’m very far from being a scrum bag in real life

BUt

Here’s to hoping Danuel House’s personal problems get worse ANDCovington’s face is broken. **** Houston. They are whiny as hell.

This team needs to treat game 4 like a must win, Come out early & put them away & this series ends in 5. Harden & russ haven't exactly been the greatest in must win situations & Dantoni naturally falls when things get tough. Ending this in 5 would be such a major dub just for the rest aspect.

Also gotta appreciate Bron & AD only playing 34 minutes a night thus far, The bench playing well is really allowing them to get some rest in during the game.

Feel like Bron is always playing a mental game with HOU, he knows their talented but he always makes it a point when he blocks their shot or muscles in the paint lol

 

[MVP]

He was complete *** all season. Playoff Rondo is appreciated though. Hopefully he can keep it up.

doing what he did to GSW 2016 to HOU 2020

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

What Lebron is doing at 35 is reminiscent to what MJ did in '97-98 at 35 when he too was still the best in the league because in a 7-game playoff series nobody else was more impactful and valuable to a ball club. And man the way those two can control a game

 

[reconic supreme]

Harden look like he slipped on PJ’s shoe but this was nasty seeing it live

 

[drewsone]

petty asses lol
no accountability.

So I’m watching post game interviews of Harden... dude is trying to push the narrative that the Lakers won cus of their “length” hahaha...

first of all... Dwight DNP, Javale never played second half, and AD has fallen in love with the 17 footers. I wonder if Harden is playing dumb or if he really isn’t paying attention.

Anyways, these are the reasons for the win
1) turned up the rotational defense in the 4th
2) playoff rondo
3) lebron and AD dominating

and that was rookie Kuzma out there... cutting, rebounding and scoring different ways... NOT THAT 1v1 CRAP!

 

[reconic supreme]

Surreal, watching them in summer league feels like yesterday lol

now kuz and caruso are closing out playoff games for us

Taking back what’s rightfully his.

petty asses lol

His second half shots were actually even more open. He started the third missing two or three open 3s.
He also got fouled on a handful of those layups he’s talking about.

 

[DLF]

Is there anyone in the league that likes Harden?

I remember in the all star game draft LeBron and chuck were making fun of him being drafted last of the starters
