It seems to me like Jaylen was brought back a little prematurely. He doesn't look 100%.
Trade Westbrook and lakers win a ring
Rui is actually good af, on both ends
Disasterbrook 0-4 already I see, I'm not watching this shit lol
Westbrook is beyond low iq holy shit
Bench russ rest of the game if you want to win, simple solution

Had the potential to be a great game and then Russ came in
These rotations are horrid
Had the potential to be a great game and then Russ came in
Easily over 20 games this has been the case since he joined the Lakers. He honestly had been pretty good lately, but I knew he was going to go back to being the worst player in the league once AD returned and clogged up the paint.
Westbrook benched, 8-0 run, who would’ve thought!

Lakers chances of competing in this game will depend entirely on whether Ham has the balls to bench Westbrook.

Nice to see first 2 plays were ran through Davis, even though he didn't score.
this line up by ham has to be a joke right

Like I said, LA's chances of winning depend entirely on whether Ham has the balls to bench Westbrook. He's basically a 6th Celtic on the court.

Sources say the Lakers have already heard from league officials that the end of regulation play was incorrect and that a foul should've been called sending LeBron James to the FT line. Expect the L2M to say the same.

Beverly shows ref a camera with foul on last play in regulation , and gets T'ed up.
Now we know its Boston's time to win a chip , and crown Tatum even though it's Brown who should be crowned cause he doesn't foul a legend.
I’ll bet you Boston doesn’t win it this year

It was an egregiously missed call yes, but you gotta get yourself together and rally your troops for OT instead of going into a half fetal position in the middle of the court. He still had the opportunity to go out and win it. It’s the same issue I had with him at the end of game 1 of the Finals when JR had that gaffe where he just isolated himself on the bench. Get yourself together and get your team ready for another 5 minutes of ball.
Also I just realized you have 10,000 posts in 2 years? The ****?
You’re growing roots on that computer chair
nearly 14 posts per day, dude doesn't go outside. :oldlol:

Yep
It's a quitter pose on the court.
He didn't use it as fuel, instead, he did what he always does when the going gets tough...he quits.
Fvcking loser

Exactly. That's why nobody respects him. He's a beta who goes into little bitch mode under adversity.
Definitely the most mentally weak of the "greats." When I saw him in the fetal position on floor crying, I knew the Celtics were going to take the game in OT.

To anyone who has watched basketball longer than 2015 yes...this has happened very often even in the playoffs, let alone the regular season.
Hell Kyrie was hacked near the end of the Knicks game and should have gotten an and-one but he still made the lay-up.
Gotta have a play on mentality refs almost never let free throws decide a game because it's too big of a risk

If it's common practice, then why does upper management look at the last 2mins and make sure things were called / not called properly?
Why release a 2min report?

Barely grazed his arm. He was missing that shot anyway.
Nonetheless, the record will show that Bronie missed the game winner. AGAIN.

It's a formality if we're being honest about it. If they really cared that much then they would reschedule the game.

Emotion of anger got him out of his pocket. Lebron didn't shy from the moment he wanted to win that game.
He tried to hit a f you 3 in overtime that resulted in a celtic rebound and brown made 3. He was fouled several times and refs didn't call it but he was so incensed that it took him out his game.

I'll make a deal with you Bronie fluffers. I'd concede this this particular choke job of Lebron's has an asterisk if you concede that his 2020 Mickey Mouse ring has an asterisk.
Any takers???

Lebron immensely benefited from a similar missed call at the end of Game 2 of 2012 Finals where his team could've fallen into a 0-2 pit, so he should STFU.
There are missed calls every game on every team. Are you guys saying that a missed call that takes place in the last minute is more consequential in terms of affecting the outcome of a game than the ones that may have come before it?

Is a basket more consequential in the last seconds that all that come before it?

You go into a meltdown every time Bronie chokes a game away. You shouldn't have your emotional well-being wrapped up around another man. It's not healthy.

So the non call was obvious and if James hits a free throw its a 99.9% chance LA wins. This is true. And people should get over it. I don't bother talking about it every time O see a missed call. It happens. People can't take it because it happened to James but James had himself benefited from bad officiating as much as anyone in NBA history. It's not something I talk about personally because I can't remember a time when stars didn't get calls. It's an 82 game season and that wasn't even a playoff game. Get over it.

Bro, your team got away with one, just admit it, shut up and move on. Constantly telling everybody else to "get over it" only highlights your own inability to get over it.

Here’s the thing, Laker fans aren’t upset at this one call. This has been culminating all season long with the no-calls. Yes, every team has to deal with bad officiating. But with the Lakers it has been especially egregious

These are all from the past two weeks. All non calls where there was obvious contact on the shooter. And I’m not talking soft bump or simply brushing the players. These are slaps, rakes, throwing your body into the shooter (in the case of troy brown) and blatant grabs (embiid grabbing Russ). And all these were not in the middle of the game. They were all near the buzzer end of regulation on game deciding plays. The lakers have no margin for error if they want to make the playoffs. If these 4 examples went the lakers way, lakers would be sitting pretty in the 6th seed. It is damn frustrating.
As for Lebrons on court meltdown, I definitely know how he feels. It’s been all season Lebron can’t buy a call. Kuzma made a good point on Twitter how guys who soft flop get rewarded with 7-8 free throws a game, but Lebron makes a genuine attempt to drive at the rim and is allowed to be raked and slapped. So frustration has been building up all season long
