Lakers - Mamba Forever 8/24

Went to see a movie last night and thought I recorded the game but apparently not, I will just use the last play by Lebron that I saw over twittter and assume the entire game went that way and there was no way they struggled against a dead in the water Memphis team

 

Bring on the Nuggets I guess

 

Ok, I'm watching. Any chance at an upset?

 

Denver isn't as good as last year pound for pound
we signed Gabe Vincent in the offseason to guard Jamal Murray
the offense is probably better this year than last

we might steal a game this year but Denver will cruise

 

Rings it is, then!

 

We are going to get slaughtered again from 3 because we’ll double Jokic even though it’s been proven not to work

 

the games last year were pretty razor thin, the difference was the shot making at the end of the shot clock and late in games by Jokic and Murray. Bron has more in the tank this year than he did last year and he's shooting MUCH better from 3. No Bruce Brown to make back breaking plays either for Denver

 

That’s certainly what I’ve rationalized to myself before the series.

 

Dwight was so effective against Joker in 2020 and we made 0 attempt at acquiring a big body backup C to give him a hard time

 

Let’s see how quickly this lead evaporates with LeBron on the bench to start the 2nd

 

I forgot how much I love offensive players imitating the contact - then flailing their arms - then getting rewarded with the flop

 

Porter Jr. has missed more shots in 15 minutes than he did the entirety of last season’s series

 

Playing very hard. Might be an entertaining series.

 

Thankfully, nothing went wrong last year after we were up double digits

 

lmao

 

Go give us nothing Russell

 

This also applies to Davis.

 

Here comes the three point barrage. Let’s not guard the three point line at all. Surely we’ll win one eventually

 

unless there's 3 seconds left on the shot clock, no 3 point attempts from AD please

 

Yeah, we are getting swept lol

 

why sign Vincent to guard Murray and then not play him at all

 

Appreciate Dlo for like the 10 games where he was good after the All-Star break, but he can go to China along with Ham

 

Up double digits on the Nuggets?

 

Let’s continue to give Porter Jr. more open looks from three

 

Love Rui just continually missing layups

 

And the collapse begins. Prolly going to be losing by the start of the 4th

 

Jaxon Hayes to start the 4th lol

 

this series would be 2-0 Lakers with a good HC

 

Rui just utterly worthless

 

Lmao

 

No way they can keep him after this season ends

 

our medical team is a fucking joke, remember Kendrick Nunn?

 

its like the same game over and over and over

 

The only thing I care about is Ham getting fired. Little chance that it happens, but a man can dream.

 

Peyton Watson getting PT in playoff games for the world champs yet Max Christie is banished to the bench

 

Would love to never see Russell & Rui again. I’m not even that attached to Reaves

 

Ham has to go
Rob has to go

 

Fuck Dlo

 

We could've had Kyrie smh I hate Jeanie, Rob and the Rambis family

 

I think the biggest positive from this season was everything involving AD. His durability, how he looked against Denver, pretty much everything but his 3 point stroke was what you'd hope for all year
