Western Conference Round 1: (2) Phoenix Suns vs. (7) Los Angeles Lakers

[QUOTE=Nike D'Antoni;14340571]That was due to elections.[/QUOTE]

No it was the pandemic. Sports ratings fell off a cliff across the board when it hit and are only just now starting to somewhat recover.

Where is the QUEEN NOW?[/QUOTE]

He said in the post game interview that he's preparing for the Goon Squad.

[QUOTE]“I think I’m going to play for the Tune Squad this Summer instead of the Olympics. That’s what I’m going to focus on, trying to beat the Monstars — or the “Goon Squad”, we call them now,” LeBron said when asked about his Summer plans.

“Didn’t have much success versus the [Phoenix] Suns, so now I am gearing my attention to the Goon Squad here in July. I’m going to let the ankle rest for about a month and then I’m going to gear up with Lola [Bunny], Taz, Granny, Bugs, and the rest of the crew”.

But... is he gonna have enough help?

I actually watched Game 6 today on NBA TV... the one hour version with fewer commercials and Lebron was nowhere to be seen. IIRC he didn't score from 1 minute left in the 3rd until 2 minutes left in the 4th quarter down 15.

He couldn’t beat old Duncan / Ginobili / Tony Parker and young Kawhi

with Dwayne Wade / Chris Bosh and quality role players.

He couldn’t beat KD / Steph / Klay n Dray

with Kyrie / Love / and JR Smith.

And now he couldn’t beat Devin Booker without AD?

And he expects movie goers to plausibly believe that with bugs bunny and Lola bunny and Tasmanian devil he’s going to beat an artificial intelligence basketball teams?

:oldlol:

Ugh, ok.

Barkley hit the nail on the head for the Lakers.
The priority business for the Lakers is to see what A. Davis is doing to correct all of the physical issues he is having.
He is young and is literally a broken liability !!
If they can resolve that , he will be first option , and Bron as 2nd option.
They need to build a new team around their cornerstone AD.
Until then what you see , is what you will get.
