Miami Heat @ Los Angeles Lakers ( Feb 20, 2021)

[Nike D'Antoni]

Spoelstra on Lebron James
"He’s set the bar for the entire league; we’re all faced with this exhilarating challenge, which is how to conquer one of his teams. He’s just a maestro in how to control a game. It’s a matter of grappling for control … he’s just a brilliant mind."

[LAmbruh]

D'Antoni Lakers GT's bring the best luck :cheers:

Lakers look brutal. No secondary creator after LeBron is a disaster. He really shouldn't be in this position at age 36. By no means does he possess the motor anymore to carry a team.

AD and Schroder can't return soon enough.

Games like this, chris paul i mean rondo could help in playmaking as veteran pg.

[bison]

With Schroeder and AD out, some of these lineups Vogel is forced to put on the floor while LeBron rests are brutal. Kuz, Wes, caruso, Gasol and kcp on the floor. Ouch. Just lost without a floor general.

[Axe]

Yea, might be hard to adjust when some key players are missing.

[LBJ]

Why does AD have blood on his shirt

kuz trying to infect him to keep him out and remain starting

If lakers lose this game, bran will get laughed at again as usual.

Those heat jerseys are horrible.

I remember they looked hype during the video promos when they were released, but on TV during a live game they look awful.

[LBJ]

We need a big athletic rim protector. Last year we had three(AD, Javale, Dwight), this year we have one ( AD).
Defense regressed.

[LBJ]

We gave up 20 points in the paint, in one quarter.

They are looking forward to a reunion with demarcus cousins. Will it push through tho?

He is not a rim protector, sucks in defense.

[LBJ]

Lebron/Harell/Kuzma has 37 of Lakers 39 points. THT/Mathews should be traded, they arent helping at all.

[Nike D'Antoni]

The Lakers won't win another game until AD returns. Maybe if they face a Wolves or OKC.

Gasol and kcp are currently scoreless too

[LBJ]

Gasol and kcp are currently scoreless too

I expect KCP to get out of this bad stretch at some point.

Bingo.

[LBJ]

Wes Mathews out there doing cardio. Useless.

[Axe]

I expect KCP to get out of this bad stretch at some point.
Hopefully he does. He's their hot shooter from long range, even moreso with danny green gone.

LAL head into halftime trailing 59-52 after Gasol beat the 2nd Q buzzer with a wing 3. KCP hit his 2nd 3 of the game moments earlier, and LAL got 7 of 21 3’s to go (MIA was 5 of 12).

Issue on defense was conceding buckets at the rim: MIA had 34 paint points to LAL’s 18.

Miami HEAT
@MiamiHEAT
#MIAvsLAL Injury Update: Tyler Herro suffered a right hip contusion in the 1st half. He's questionable to return.

[Axe]

Tha lakers can still win this game, i believe so. For a pf, kuzma should focus on rebounding and leave the shots to bran and the likes of kcp, harrell, etc.

Trade THT

.

They will need to up Lebron minutes.

Lebron on the court, Lakers +3. Off-court -12.

[HBK_Kliq_2]

Marcus morris beat Miami heat by himself. I guess that's too much to ask for out of legrandpa hahahah and bam just blocked the shit out of him

[LBJ]

Frank Vogel is garbage coach. Playing Morris, THT OUT there.

BAM! LeBron gets some of his own medicine with a lane chase-down block by Bam. Made Bron look a little old.

[Manny98]

Who df is Max Strus :roll:

Looks like a literal Estate agent

[HBK_Kliq_2]

Who the hell is max on the heat. What a jackass, literally throwing the game away

[Axe]

This game should head into ot please

[LBJ]

This loss is on Vogel for his bad rotation

[Axe]

They were hampered and were lagging behind during the first half but at least they somehow caught up and not trailing by a huge margin anymore

[L8krH8tr]

Miami choke city

:lol

[Spurs m8]

This loser can't even put a shot up when it's needed.

His whole career is being bailed out by others when it matters

[Spurs m8]

Maybe don't throw your head into his elbow...moron

[L8krH8tr]

F the Fakers

[Spurs m8]

How they gonna win when coward hides when it matters?

Now he's gonna act all passive aggressive towards his teammates....even tough Kuz did his best to bail this clown out

Embarrassing

[Spurs m8]

The side of the backboard....are you fvcking kidding me?

Hahahahahahahahahhahaj

[Spurs m8]

Hey Caruso.....bail me out please.

Are you actually kidding me?

Hahahhahahahahjajajajaja

You are one unhinged freak

[LBJ]

F Morris, Vogel, THT, and Mathews. Send them packing.

[Nike D'Antoni]

Lebron + 11

Without Lebron -13

Lebron will need to play 40 - 42 minutes. Without AD Lakers are exposed to how bad they are. AD deserves MVP recognition

[aj1987]

Miami's offense has been trash. Can't believe that we desperately need a 40 year old Dragic back.

Good for us that the Lakers' offense is even worse. :oldlol:

[Spurs m8]

I'm not the one on here daily

Also not the one slurping another grown man

LeBron, 1-8 from three, wanted no part of shooting that last-second three to win, instead kicking to Caruso - Caruso??? - for a tying two that wasn't even close.

LeBron stole the inbounds pass, leading to Caruso’s corner 3 that would have won the game … but he missed to the left, off the front rim, and LAL fall 96-94.

Lakers hit 13 of their 45 3’s on the night ... but just 1 of 13 in the 4th Q.

I didn’t watch the last seconds cause I turned it off after Wes missed the 3 and the game was essentially sealed. Then I wake up to see people bagging on LeBron for deferring the game winner so I check out the last second highlights and LeBron was completely covered with Caruso open. I’ve gotten on LeBron for deferring but he had no choice but to pass :facepalm:

[Airupthere]

Oleynik was looking like a doberman on defense out there in the clutch that is why Lebron had to defer. Lol

Kobe would have taken that shot.
