Blazers @ Lakers

[Manny98]

Can LeGOAT lead Lakers to their first win?

[Manny98]

Lonnie Walker is awful :oldlol:

[Manny98]

Forgot how nice Dame is :applause:

[Smook A.]

Dame's catching fire

[LAL]

Watching lebron play is the most overrated thing ever. No aggression just collecting triple doubles out there, swinging the ball like a bitch. Watch Dame for example that's how you play and keep the defense honest.

Trash.

[Manny98]

LeBron you're not Lillard buddy :roll:

[Jud]

This Lakers team is the worst shooting team ever in the modern era

[Axe]

Lakers on pace for 0-3.

[Axe]

Catching up :applause:

[Indian guy]

Lakers are so much more competent defensively than last year. They play very hard and that's a testament to Ham's coaching. Unfortunately they're straight up garbage on the other end, led by LeBron himself who just looks toothless if he's not in transition. He's been declining for a long time but maybe the cliff has finally arrived.

Trash.

I guess he’s just pacing himself but hopefully he activates Roid mode in the second half and attacks the paint more.

Last year they had a bunch of old dudes that could shoot and score but play no defense.

This year they have a bunch of young guys that can play defense but can't shoot or score lol .

They solved one problem and created another.

[bison]

Apparently lakers have already attempted 100 3 pointers in these first 3 games, on a 25% clip. Absolutely abysmal. Ham needs to shut off the green light on this 3 point shooting. I don’t care if they’re getting good looks. They are being killed by their shooting and need to attack the paint more

[bison]

Correction they are 20/101 from 3 point range. That doesn’t even seem like a real stat.

[Indian guy]

You give 2008-2018 LeBron this roster and they'd be top 3 in the West, even with the shooting woes. LeBron's ability to lift an offense was that good. Now he's just old.

[bison]

AD beasting on both ends of the court. Lakers taking the lead with Roid in the bench #NLND

[Manny98]

AD :bowdown::bowdown:

[Spurs m8]

Correction they are 20/101 from 3 point range. That doesn’t even seem like a real stat.

Doesn't help LeBarry is 5/22 from 3 lmao

[Smook A.]

The fact that Lakers are 4/26 from 3 and still up is shocking to me

[Pitbull]

Doesn't help LeBarry is 5/22 from 3 lmao

He just hit a three after you said that

[Pitbull]

Trail Blazers are trash without Lillard.

[Pitbull]

Another three by Lebron. The heck you did Spurs m8.

[Smook A.]

He just hit a three after you said that

Make that 2 in a row

[Indian guy]

LeBron just can't do shit in the half-court.

[RRR3]

LeBron just can't do shit in the half-court.
He’s 38

[Smook A.]

AD's defense has been unbelievable

[Indian guy]

Pretty sure that's LeBron's first successful drive in the half-court this season.

[Manny98]

LeOffBall

[bison]

:lebronamazed:Roid mode activated!! :lebronamazed:

[Pitbull]

Lebron still got that speed in beating big players by speed. Totally schooled nurkic.

[G0ATbe]

40 and still the best player in the universe:bowdown:

[Indian guy]

Ham puts in WB the last 4 minutes :facepalm. It's incredible how devoid of testicles these coaches are.

[Spurs m8]

40 and still the best player in the universe:bowdown:

Not even top 10

Also not 40, you lying cvnt

[Pitbull]

Ham puts in WB the last 4 minutes :facepalm. It's incredible how devoid of testicles these coaches are.

Gotta keep the trade stock value.

[Indian guy]

Gotta keep the trade stock value.

WB's value will remain the same no matter how many mins. he plays.

[bison]

LeGOAT with the dagger

[bison]

Fcking leChoke :facepalm:

[Indian guy]

Entire game predictably changed after Ham put WB back in.

[Pitbull]

Westbrook what he doing? haha.

[Spurs m8]

LeBrick and Westbrick doing their best to lose the game

[RRR3]

Disasterbrook is 4-26 last two games :lol

[bison]

LeBrick followed by Westbrick. Lucky for us pat bev is bailing us out

[Pitbull]

Nurkic an idiot

[Spurs m8]

LeBrick is the most unclutch player I've ever seen


I can see his heart racing through the screen

[Smook A.]

Why did Russ shoot that...

[bison]

Lillard gw incoming

[Spurs m8]

Omg hahahahha

[bison]

Called it. Now watch LeBrick airball the game winner attempt

[Spurs m8]

Here is LeAntiClutch time to get one back

[bison]

Lol wtf are the blazers doing

[Spurs m8]

Lol Blazers.

That's how Barry can get a clutch basket....wide open lay up.

Nice one, barry

[coin24]

Dame time!! Glad they overturned that disgusting Beverly flop..

Lebrick got lucky there:lol incoming dame gw

[Pitbull]

WOW. Lebron with the clutch dunk.

[RRR3]

Here is LeAntiClutch time to get one back
Whoops

[bison]

Ham having the balls to bench westbrook thank god

[Spurs m8]

WOW. Lebron with the clutch dunk.

Wow....not a defender in sight...

Wow

Dickhead

[Spurs m8]

Cmon Barry...do it proper

[Spurs m8]

LeSiev strikes again

[Lee]

Westbrook three-point game winner shocker coming.

[bison]

LeCHOKE

[coin24]

Lebrick :roll::roll:

Classic loser

[Indian guy]

Game was lost once Ham put WB back in.

[Manny98]

Lakers and Philly both 0-3, what a time :roll:

[Im so nba'd out]

I think westbrook played his final game in a lakers jersey....maybe in the league....wow

[ImKobe]

LeBrick strikes again

[Spurs m8]

This guy CANNOT hit a hit or lose shot

He simply can't

Doesn't he have like 1 in 20 years?

Anticlutch in his genes

[Smook A.]

Not even trying to hate but once Lakers put in Russ late in the 4th quarter, the Lakers lost their lead

[RRR3]

Not even trying to hate but once Lakers put in Russ late in the 4th quarter, the Lakers lost their lead
No shit lol.

[Axe]

Poor thing.

[Indian guy]

Not even trying to hate but once Lakers put in Russ late in the 4th quarter, the Lakers lost their lead

Even the change in body language was palpable after WB was put in late 4th. You could just see the whole team going ummmm why are you back in??

And predictably enough the offense came to a halt, the defense collapsed and WB made one bad decision after another and cost LA the game.

[Airupthere]

Moooaaaarrrrr haaaalllpppp!!!! Lol

[D-Wait]

In 3 games so far, Westbrook is shooting 28% from the field and 8% from the 3-point line :lol:lol

His 2 crucial bricks at the end of the 4th let the Blazers back in the game.

[Axe]

One thing's for sure; that famous hollywood team really isn't serious in winning games anymore. :oldlol:

[ShawkFactory]

Dude why did Russ take that shot with 13 seconds left on the clock and a lead??

:oldlol:

[BigShotBob]

I feel sorry for AD he tried his hardest to secure a win both offensively and defensively. Ball should have touched his hands down the stretch

[TheGoatest]

LeGOATest scored the Lakers' last 4 points of the game. The first 2 of the 4 gave the Lakers a 102-95 lead. The last two tied the game 104-104.
But for every LeGOATest clutch action, there is an equal and opposite Westbrick anti-clutch action:

And they had him off the court for the last 2 possessions.

Let's blame him though....LeBrick also bricked it around the time Westbrook took his lost shot too

Sounds more like the standard LeTiny passive aggressive sulk and throwing a teammate under the bus..
Then a classic lebrick to seal it

How many bad plays did WB make down the stretch? He took a wide open 16-footer and left enough time on the clock for LA to get the ball back, not the worst decision ever but he did miss.

Bran took a step-back 3 and a fadeaway long 2 in the last minute and got beat by Jerami ****ing Grant..

WB had another horrible game but Bran tried to be the hero and lost at the end.. Lakers went away from AD when he always owns Nurk 1 on 1..

Yeah LeBarry missed 2 shots in the last minute or so and WB wasn't wasn't on the court for the last couple of possessions.

It's all WB fault though.

Maybe if your hero wasn't so fvcking gutless, he wouldn't always fold at the end

This is cap lol. You don’t go for a 2 for 1 when you’re up lol. It’s a truly dumb play in the clutch

[Indian guy]

Lakers were up 98-90 with 4:42 left when WB checked back in. Were outscored 16-6 the rest of the way. In that time WB scored 0 points, missed both his FGA and grinded LA's offense to a halt because teams don't have guard him. His man was literally standing 15 feet off him on every possession. Lakers only scored 5 points the last 4:42 after looking pretty darn solid the entirety of late 3rd qtr and 4th when WB was on the bench. It's totally disingenuous to pretend WB's only hiccup was that moronic last shot when he kills the team in so many other ways.

[Indian guy]

Jerami Grant's no scrub offensively (20+ ppg the last 2 seasons) and LeBron's 38. Kobe (your darling) was basically a traffic cone by age 33.

Bran was horrible in the last few minutes, just admit that and keep it moving. Russ was not the reason they choked at the end.

[bison]

Hate to say it since I’ve always defended him, but lakers should look into giving Russ some DNPs and see how the offense flows out

[Indian guy]

So now you resort to making a Lebron vs Kobe debate

What did Russ do that was so bad in the last 4 minutes again? Miss a couple open shots?
Bran OTOH clearly choked and you're in full deflect mode lmao

Wow Lebron doesn't know how to fit with Westbrook or simply can't (lacks the skills)

Durant went to the Finals with baby Westbrook and bench Harden - so Durant can still contend with other ball-dominators and Lebron can't (inferior)

Are you really trying to argue that that wasn't an incredibly stupid decision? :lol

[Smook A.]

Are you really trying to argue that that wasn't an incredibly stupid decision? :lol

Anyone who denies that it was a dumb decision and an extremely low IQ move by Westbrook is just a certified idiot at this point. The Lakers were up 1 and had plenty of seconds left to just hold the ball and make a play. There was absolutely no reason for Westbrook to take that shot with that many seconds left on the clock.

[ImKobe]

Are you really trying to argue that that wasn't an incredibly stupid decision? :lol

No one would have called it a bad decision if it went in. It's a wide open 16-footer for crying out loud. It's crazy how that's considered a bad decision but the Bran step-back 3 or the fadeaway shot to tie the game don't get mentioned once.

Sure, but that doesn't guarantee a win either. They run out the clock and Bran bricks another step-back 3 and now Dame wins it on the last shot at the buzzer and it's the same outcome.

Yes, if it went in it's still a bad decision. The "NO NO NO..YES" aspect of things doesn't make it a good shot.

But add in that Russ has been shooting at an absolutely awful clip? STFU dude :lol

[ShawkFactory]

It's the situation more than the actual shot. You don't pull up with 27 seconds left when you're up and have 14 seconds left on the shot clock. Particularly if you're a terrible shooter.

You know that it was really dumb.

And I know that you know.

[Full Court]

I was out all day and just checked scores. Lakers lose AGAIN?!?!?!

:roll: :roll:

And to the Blazers no less.

Man, it must reeaaaaaaaally hurt to be a Bronie these days.

Lebron needs to adopt the mamba mentality and threaten to leave the team unless they improve the roster, like Kobe did before they brought in Gasol

A wide open 16-footer.

Russ missed, who cares. They still tied the game after that and even had another chance to win the game.

I'd have a bigger question about them not pressuring Dame and giving him a relatively easy look from 3 on the next possession with Lonnie Walker covering him 1 on 1, or them having Reaves inbound on the last play for Lebron to attempt a fadeaway 18-footer to tie the game.

Can the Lakers become the first team to ever go through an entire season without winning a game?

[Druckenmiller]

Russell Westbrick is one of the leagues all time low IQ players. They arenÂ’t even guarding him because he is a CLOWN. ItÂ’s not that they arenÂ’t guarding him because he canÂ’t shoot. They arenÂ’t guarding because they know he Will shoot.

And miss.

ItÂ’s hilarious. ItÂ’s reached a point where Russell Westbrick shooting the ball is comparable to DeAndre Jordan shooting jumpers.

If you knew every time you didnÂ’t guard DeAndre Jordan from
15 feet and out he was going to shoot it, especially in key moments, you would stand as far away from him as possible and let him do it.

The difference is, if DeAndre Jordan started chucking the ball every time he was open, heÂ’d hit the bench and be out of the league.

Westbroke takes the bait every time. He just canÂ’t help himself. Especially when he thinks he might be the hero. A 2 for -. Bro what kind of Goof ball are you lol .. If the Lakers keep running Westbroke out there, theyÂ’ll keep losing.

Dame set a screen on Pat Bev to allow 'Brick to chuck it. Nurk didn't even step up to 'Brick to contest the shot.
Ham willingly allowed this dude to enter the game, meeting their opponents 99% of the way. :facepalm

lebarry’s shot was horrible but stop trying to deflect from what westbrook did to make lebron look worse, no shit he took a horrible ill-advised chuck :lol
