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

[tupac003]

I saw it too, but I don't think he trust Russ and I don't blame him.

I rather he make that pass and russ gets fouled.

But looks like another blown lead and another L inbound in OT.

 

[tupac003]

Frank gotta be kidding with that play

No way Frank called that.

AD being lazy as usual.

 

[Lizakers]

AD

 

[grittyman]

 

[noblekane]

jesus

 

[Lizakers]

All those stupid technicals

 

[drewsone]

AD shooting 12% from 3 for the season and puts that ******** up

I’m done with him

0 doesn’t know how to close games. Dude the worst PG I’ve ever seen lmao

AD shooting 12% from 3 for the season and puts that bull**** up

Nah. Russ is an all time great player. Respect laker players. Don’t talk bad about them. We love lakers. They do no wrong

 

[fearless]

Cameloooooooooooooooooooo

 

[CP1708]

Melo.

 

[drewsone]

Can’t believe how incompetent these dudes are without Bron lmao

 

[drewsone]

why AD trying to shoot 20 footers on top a contested zone lol

 

[tupac003]

Gonna need Melo to run off screens or something. He has to get the ball in his hands but it's hard to do if he is just standing there.

 

[MVP]

Lol this team is FULL of dummies

 

[tay1]

I’ll say it again. Fully healthy and if this team played a small amount of defense, we’re a championship team. If we can’t improve the defense by a little, we’re out in the first round. No amount of scoring can outdo our defense. This is tew much.

 

[CP1708]

Melo 9 of 13.

He's shooting like that, he needs 20+ touches, minimum.

Rondo turned this game tonight, he was playoff Rondo tonight.

 

[lovehateself]

Whole starting lineup was in the -
Thank god for Melo , rondo and reaves tonight

It does start with the defense but AD gotta get his butt in the paint and actually beast in there.

Russ can't handle the ball late.

We need Lebron.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

The way Robert Horry talking about AD on Access you'd think we lost tonight lol

I'm with Rob and Big Game, they not really happy at all bout this win.

What positives are there to take away? AD puts up numbers but something is off with his game. Besides AD we can only rely on Melo getting hot from deep

He’s too in love with the jumpshot and it’s clear we’re not gonna be able to count on him late in games with Russ. We definitely need Bron.

 

[sohi 23]

Shoutout to Melo, Rondo and Reaves
AD put up numbers but he’s so frustrating. Man shoots like 95% at the rim yet he insists on taking jumpers
That last play

Russ…. At this point it is what it is
Just keep the turnovers to under 5 plz.

 

[drewsone]

Bron masks a lot but idk man this team a **** show idk how much he’ll help lmao

the defense is atrocious

I guess we still need to see how nunn and etc will look but nunn but I’m not sure he moves the needle that much lol

it is a nice change of pace to see not slander Bron in here for once tho

 

[tay1]

On the positive note though, in the flashes of greatness that we do see, we can see what does and doesn’t work. The offense is fine. The defense has to improve with time. It just can’t get worse. If we can get and stay healthy, I think we’ll be good.

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Got a feeling Ariza will contribute a lot more than expected if he can stay healthy

 

[sohi 23]

Beast I have problems with his shot chart but he be balling.
