The Official NBA Season Thread: I’m like Jayson Tatum in the Olympics I'm not playing

that's a very makeable shot from Russ. it's a 2 for 1. sometimes the ball doesn't bounce your way.
fans groaning everytime he has the ball isn't going to help

2 for 1 at the end of a game only applies when you're losing or the score is tied. It's completely irrelevant when you're WINNING the game because the other team isn't gonna run the clock all the way down when they're losing. So you're gonna get another possession anyway. Just a bonehead decision by Russ.

Lakers couldnt get any shooting coaches all these years? Feel like Russ was never THIS bad with his misses. Idk where that ugly bank shot came from.

I get the 2 for 1 but just feels like Russ treated that possession like it was any other time in the game, its crunch time bruv. Bron and AD barely made it passed half court smh. It woudda been fine if they were atleast in position to grab the rebound.

Lauri has been great for the Jazz. He hooping.
Also, BI is turning into one of them ones.

What makes you think Russ would take the advice of a shooting coach?

A shooting coach ain’t going to make him take good shots.

What makes you think he wouldn’t? I’m sure he’s had trainers throughout his career he’s worked out with for something.

The Lakers suck!

 

[reconic supreme]

Lakers are instantly better with WB off the floor

rob you bum WHAT ARE YOU DOING GET HIM OFF THE TEAM!

 

[pmatic]

He supposedly re-worked his shot over the summer and nothing has changed.

Wait what I missed

Which Dynasty Warriors game was your favorite?

I played all the way up to 5. I thoroughly enjoyed them all. Enjoy the history of the warring Chinese states and the 3 kingdoms.

 

[addict4sneakers]

He could have ray Allen mechanics but it doesn’t matter if he’s going to take bad shots. YouTube a Westbrook workout video and you’ll see him practicing those same bad shots he misses in games. No floaters. No wrong finishes. Just the same bad habits.

Drafted him in all the leagues im in. I knew he would be given the greenlight to shoot in Utah cause they love some white players.

Not true I’ve seen exponentially less airballs and backboard clanks

No one is excusing Bron but did you watch the game?

The end of that Lakers game was poetic for the situation. It couldn't have ended any worse.
